I have been using the iPad Pro for at least 5 months for home and school use, this is truly a masterpiece. This tablet has awesome specs and paired with iOS it truly has the right balance of hardware to software, though I really wish there was a better camera as it uses the iPad Air 2 camera but...

The iPad Pro is a powerful tablet with top of the line performance. However, it isn't the ideal device for the average consumer. If you have specific need that justfies the purchase of the iPad Pro, then by all means go ahead and buy it.

Great performance; Good battery life; Well built tablet; Good sound output

Unwieldy Smart Keyboard; Can't change the angle while using the keyboard; Not enough apps to exploit the display

It's quite impossible to have one device to rule them all, but I'd be happy if I could bring it down to two. The thought of not having to lug one and also one less device to charge is not a bad idea.

I'll start this review off by saying that I am really an Android person and am not in love with iOS. I had to buy this to do some testing at work and I am not in love with it either.

Buy it if you want a productive iPad and can stomach the cost, otherwise a MacBook Air will cost you less and provide a more capable OS at the expense of size and the iOS ecosystem.

If you want to be productive get this one with keyboard and pencil for a laptop experience and it still needs a usb lightning port along with charging port to fully replace my macbook but I would expect that in next generation as a standard option to be able to plug in super drive card readers and...

Apple's iPad Pro: the WIRED verdict.

Phenomenal Retina screen; excellent stylus support; thin, light and adaptable

Relatively expensive; not quite a laptop; Pencil and keyboard complement Multi-Touch, but don't replace it

The iPad Pro is a truly wonderful thing to behold but it just isn't for me. The high price puts it out of reach of many and takes it into the luxury and professional gadget sectors.

So, does iPad Pro do enough to replace a laptop (even a MacBook)? Some might be quick to say no, but we think it depends on the user. There are many out there who wouldn't wish to leave behind the extended power capabilities of OS X or Windows, and certain heavy laptop users may dismiss the notion...

A big, beautiful screen that improves many tablet experiences, including watching videos and looking at photos; Extremely fast; Very good, intelligent speakers for an unparalleled audio experience on iPad; Smart Connector opens up new accessory possibilities and adds to device's versatility.

Expensive; Can be unwieldy and uncomfortable to use at times; Accessories add to price, making it no less expensive than a laptop; Portability suffers due to larger size; Some apps look "off" on huge screen.
