What do you mean "too contrasty"? OLED Displays are capable of delivering infinite contast when the picture calls for it. It does not mean that they can't render low contrast images. They can. Sure, those who are used to LCD's low contrast (because of their limitations) picture may get shocked by the quality of OLED screen but that's not a good reason to dislike OLED screens.

Other than the prehistoric looking size of the side bezels, it really is a beautiful phone.
The iphone 5 design is up there with the iphone 4 as the best looking electronics ever.
I would have been nice to see the iphone 5 design updated to meet the tech standards of 2016, mainly the size of the bezels. In comparison, the Galaxy edge S7 has a stunning looking display. I guess, we'll have to wait for Apple's flagship iphone later in the fall to do a fair comparison with the Samsung phone.

The iPad Pro looks pretty cool and I will be getting one. I do wonder if the increased color gamut is really noticeable though.
Fundamentally, there are five iPads currently being sold new from Apple: two iPad minis, 2 10 inch iPads, and one 12 inch iPad. five models. Yes, you can pick capacity, wireless options, and color for each model, but it's five basic models. I don't think that's all that bad.
They aren't using any special version there. You can actually do that. A very little camera protruding for 1 mm doesn't make the tablet to rumble on a flat surface.It will be an issue for many customers when they try to use it the way apple is misleadingly advertising it multiple times in their videos...
Hating? My, that's a strong word... so out of context..

The contrast problem? A higher contrast ratio is a good thing..
Reflections on ipad's screen in the video looks just horroble.
How many times Apple must reduce the glare to 1% of previous version to get even close to matte display?

Well, it might be better in terms of taking good fotos and videos (imo a less important feature for an iPad, even a "pro"), but there's also the design and form factor. A camera, that is exposed to extreme pressure and scratches when laying flat on a table like it is advertised many times in apples videos, isn't a "better" camera to me. So yes, scare quotes.
As much as it sounds like I'm an Apple employee, I'm just the person in my family that everyone comes to when their tech doesn't work right. Tired of hearing them complain that something doesn't work right on their phone/computer when there is less than 1 megabyte of free space (this literally happens) and they went cheap and got the bare-bones lowest storage option... and then proceed to store years worth of texts, photos, documents, emails, etc. After a while it gets old.
iPhone, Android, MacBook, Windows laptop, whatever it is, always go at least one tick up from the minimum storage option. Odds are you have more space requirements than you realize.
