I think it was three years ago that I found the distance between apps on the iPad hilarious. Still the same. I’ve lost hope for an iPad-specific version of iOS that I’ve talked about on here before.
 
I like the 11" option. The specs seem more powerful than the new Air. So could I replace my Huawei Mate book Pro X 512GB for the new iPad with USB C? Seems like the graphics are better than internal intel graphics but not sure if it's better than the Nvidia graphics. However with the USB C, would it work with my Aorus 1080 external gpu? Probably not, right? Unless you can dual boot to Windows?

Yes, the 12.9" seems more manageable now - may get it! Waiting to see the pricing with options.
 
Ups and downs. Wasn't that interested in getting a new iPad Pro as I love my 10.5. However became excited with many of the changes and upgrades. But then the $150 64gb to 256gb and the removal of the headphone jack turned me off.
 
They announced the 11" starting at $799 and 12.9" starting at $999, but in the store I see $749 and $949. Can't believe they'd make a screw up in the announcement. Wonder what the disconnect is?
 
Okay, take my money!! Finally enough reason to dump my Air 2. Price wise it all depends on what fits your specific needs but, 11” + 256Gb is perfect for me! Only thing I’m worried about is how great next year’s model will be in comparison and if i’ll be slapping myself for jumping on the wagon so quickly :oops::p
 
Let's see you engineer a better product.
That's easy.. OLED. But in all seriousness, it's not exactly bezeless. That is just a gimmick everyone says now. It's as bezeless as you can get at the time though, which just makes sense to say bezeless. I don't really fault them for that in the least.

Other note.. Curious to see what the secondary market will be on these products come March. Couple hundred off a used one would be in the ballpark for me. Nice stuff, just don't see the price matching the usability right now.
 
Ended up ordering a 12.9 inch space grey 256gb WiFi and pencil. More storage was tempting but I won’t be keeping entertainment stuff on it and most images will be backed up elsewhere after completion so optimised versions will suffice there.

Cellular would have been an impulse upgrade if it wasn’t over £100 extra but it’s too high for something I’ll probably never use.
I just hope it does arrive on the 7th and my order doesn’t get backlogged.

Amazing devices, but would have liked a new iPad Mini. At this point, I would have settled for a refresh.

And please, don't mention the iPhone XS Max, I went from an 8 Plus to an XS due to the plus being too big.

But I guess, I'm in the minority, so no market for it.

I'm curious if Apple will at some point allow wireless charging between ipad and iphone. Considering the pencil can do it based on magnets. Such tech could technically work on the phone. Obviously not in a years time, thats a bigger vs smaller battery. But that is one of the things that has me waiting on preordering.. I'll get a used device in a few months for a little cheaper.
 
I love the new iPad Pro and I would love it even better if I can connect it to the new Mac Mini through that connection port or wirelessly over WiFi so I can get a little bit of Mac on my iPad Pro as an output or Mac interface when I need it. I use iOS more than I use my MacBook so a Mac Mini would be ideal with iPad Pro.

Couldn't agree more about the iPad Mini. That's the one I've been waiting for and would have bought 2 maxed.
 
These look incredible, so happy with everything except I wish it was 128GB for $799. I can work with 64GB though. Love the new folio case also. Ordered already, can't wait to get it.

Agreed! 64 is manageable since most storage can just be uploaded to the cloud but I’m afraid I might kick myself if Adobe allows for better InDesign/InCopy, etc management like Photoshop so that’s what’s pushing me towards the 256 option

But def think they should’ve started @ 128 since allows all the way to 1TB smh
