How are YOU Going To Buy The iPad Pro?

sjleworthy said:
dont know yet. if i order it through Apple online i receive it as soon as it's available for them to send it me. if i order it through my credit card company (john lewis) they'll give me 100's of store credit points, but the wait might be considerably longer. so i dont know yet.

certainly not going to pick one up manually at an Apple store.

Why not go to apple store?

Method: I just signed up for the Discover it card and they have 10% cash back on in-store Apple Pay purchases, and they double all the cash back for your first year.

Model: 128GB LTE Space Grey, as well as the Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard

Does Discover have any purchasing benefits? I.e. Extended warranty service like Amex does so you don't really have to get Apple Care?
 
I don't know whether to order online as soon as it's announced or go to my near Apple store a week or two later and hope they have them in stock, the trouble is here in the UK my nearest Apple store is Birmingham which is a small Apple store.

From Best Buy. I was really crossing my fingers for preorders but that looks like it's not happening

Gold. 128 wifi. with a Pencil, Smart Keyboard and an Airport extreme. might buy a gold mini4 too whilst i'm at it 🙂

i'm 44.
 
Apple online store, 128 Space Grey with Smart Keyboard and Pencil. Overnight shipping I hope. I am leaving for a conference on the 16h and dying to take this with me, if it is indeed available on the 11th.

I'm going for a gold 128 with wifi, Apple Pencil and the silicone case probably in white. Hoping to order as soon as available either to buy or pre-order.

I think Apple will announce details soon especially if the 11th is the release date which is a week today!
 
Yeah when will APPLE finally give us some information about iPad Pro... I hate apple js hiding information about us...

What do you guys think?

The iPad Pro will be pre orderable this friday?

Are you someone who wantst to test the ipad pro out before buying it, or are you someone who wants to buy it straight away???

And what color are you buying? What model? And how are you going to buy it? Via online or in real life?

Thanks lol

"In real life"? What are you, 5 years old? Anyway, I'd much prefer to pre-order if possible, but will probably go to Best Buy early and grab one on launch day if I have to (if they don't allow pre-orders). My closest Apple store is about 90 miles away. I'll get the 128GB wifi, space gray w/keyboard.
 
Cough, Cough. Probably be sick that day and run up the Apple store and pick up a 64GB Space Grey with pencil and keyboard cover. I'll use it all and decide if I'm going to keep it before the 14 day return period.

There isn't a 64gb iPad Pro, only 32gb or 128gb

I hardly ever get sick, that would not have worked for me because I had perfect attendance at work for years so they would know something was up.

BUT I don't have to worry about calling out anymore anyways. 🙂

14 days? I'm getting it at Best Buy and will have till January 15th to return it.
 
I was hopeful AT&T stores will have them on launch day and bury the cost in $55/mo phone bill instead of laying out $1100 cash. my next plan is probably best buy... for both the return policy if I'm not happy and very often Best Buy has these insane promotions where you get like a $200 gift card for buying it there.

Just get a Best Buy credit card, you will have 18 months interest free for payment.

Thanks, that might work for some - but I try to live by having only a bank ATM card and due-in-fullAmex and avoid all the other credit cards.
 
Going to go take a look at it in the Apple Store and if it looks good and the display quality is improved over the Air 2 I will buy.
 
Ordering sight unseen, I desperately need to replace my iPad 2 and I was prepared to order an iPad Air 3, that didn't happen so im going to try the 32GB Space Grey Pro, Smart Cover/Silicone Case and if I don't care for the size I'll move to whatever Air comes out next year.

I'll order online whenever it's available along with a 5K iMac, not wasting my time driving to the  store. Dealing with the crowds that are already lingering on non-release days is bad enough, not to mention I hate driving anyways.

I, too, am hoping that AT&T offers the 128 GB Cellular model via their 20-month installment plan. I will get the keyboard cover and silicone case right away and wait to decide if I need or want the Pencil.
