iPad Pro Early reviews?

[econrads024]

Were there no demo units handed out to media and reviewers to provide reviews ahead of time? I haven’t seen any reviews or unboxings yet. Usually happen 2 days before launch

Someone got their 2020 iPad Pro Early (Geekbench Benchmarks and More)

I am completely speechless… The guy who got it did a benchmark. It is running the public release version of iPadOS 13.4 (not the golden master or a beta version). There are also a ton of people asking for certain tests to be conducted (camera test, etc).

Considering how surprised everyone seemed, and how a few big media sites have said they'd be getting theirs on Wednesday, I think Apple actually didn't send demo units out in advance. It's possible Apple didn't even decide about the timing until relatively recently. They likely had planned on a surprise media invitation to an announcement event with a couple week's notice, like they often do, but when it became clear that would be a bad idea, they just shoved it out the door.

Not a stellar review. Maybe I will end up keeping my 2008 11 Pro and saving the money. Will see when I get the 12.9 tomorrow.

Apple iPad Pro review 2020: small spec bump, big camera bump — The Verge

Apple’s tagline for the new 2020 iPad Pro models is “Your next computer is not a computer.” It’s a cheeky way of addressing the tension that’s at the heart of most iPad Pro purchases: they cost as much or more than many laptops but may not be able to replace your laptop.

Another. Good review, but sounds like not an much of an upgrade from 2018 11 or 12.9 Pro. https://www.wired.com/review/apple-ipad-pro-2020/

My advice if you have a 2018:

only upgrade if you need more storage or want to change iPad Pro sizes. If you have an 11 And wanna go to 12.9, sure. Otherwise? Nahhhh. Keeping my 2018 11 until there’s a legit reason to upgrade

gimme dat magic keyboard though

Fully agree, absolutely no point in upgrading

Its funny how each one started as a review for the iPad and pretty much turned into a demo for Mouse Support followed by drooling over the Magic Keyboard. 😀
