A pessimist might dismiss the iPad Pro as a "gamble," but to do so would be foolish. What the iPad Pro does and what it promises feel like inevitabilities, in many ways. Rather than a gamble, the iPad Pro is instead a bold statement from Apple about the future of computing.

The A9X chip is powerful and capable of anything you can throw at it; The 12.9-inch Retina display is gorgeous; and the new four-speaker array is welcome; Ultraportable form factor and 10-plus hours of battery life in a beautiful; svelte package; Smart Connector opens the iPad Pro to a world of new...

iOS 9 needs more consistent cross-app support and a easy file system to replace OS X for power users; Apps don't yet properly utilize the larger screen size; even some of Apple's own; Apple cheaped out with last-gen cameras and Touch ID

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.

Even though many users think that it is an affront that Apple has developed a large tablet and even a corresponding pen, the result is very convenient. The Californians certainly did not reinvent the device class, but once again, they have managed to integrate a high-quality product into their own...

great design and build quality; very good stylus (optional; fast SoC; excellent display; great speakers; very good runtimes

scaling of iOS, weak and hot power adaptor, long charging times, no NFC, only LTE Cat; 4, expensive accessories

Really I just loved it. I buy it from online. It's coming in 12.9 inches display. The battery life is good. No word to say about this device. While playing games I just feel awesome feeling. User interface is too too too much good. It's so slim less weight. Design is too good.

"This is stupid," said my partner when I first showed her the iPad Pro, "why would anyone want a tablet this big?" After five minutes doodling with the Apple Pencil, her tone had changed completely. "Do you have to give this one back?

Gorgeous screen; Apple Pencil is amazing; Great speakers

Smart Keyboard is underwhelming; iOS isn't optimised for two-in-one experiences; Expensive

The iPad Pro is Apple's response to the growing demand for notebooks that double as tablets. It is an iPad supersized to 12.9-inches and it benefits from the support of a ‘Smart Keyboard' and the Apple ‘Pencil' stylus.

Four speakers; 5 million pixel display; Excellent split-screen multitasking; Powerful innards for a tablet

Smart cover has a poor form factor and is uncomfortable to use; Pencil Stylus needs to be recharged and cannot be stowed; Heavy users will have to settle for less than ordinary battery life; Accessories are overly expensive

A gigantic, powerful iPad with some unique 2-in-1 capabilities… if you're willing to fork out for the accessories.

We've seen iPads before. We've seen keyboard cases. We've even seen lots of styli. But as happens so often, Apple has remixed existing elements into something new, driven by design, ease-of-use, and compelling third-party apps.

Laptop-level power; Surprisingly light; Pencil accessory is the best stylus experience on a mainstream tablet

Very expensive; Touch-centric UI with keyboard is awkward; Apps don't quite complete your workflow

This ipad is perfect, yes it is a little bit big, but if you use it for taking notes, watching pictures or editing video, this is the ipad you should get! The 10.5" screen is better to carry around no doubt about it, but this one is a little bigger but you'll get like 50% more screen real state and...

I really liked the design and functions of the tablet and how i could take it almost anywhere just like a phone what i did not like about the tablet was that even with 100 percent battery it died on my a couple of times when i was using it also with its design and lean structure it is very easy to...

Fast easy to use portable

easy to break low battery expensive
