New 10.5" Pro here.

Not feeling the love. Not yet after a few days at least. About on par with my iPad Air 1 (which was more than adequite). Of course I've done nothing to maximize power draw, or look at my stats yet. But now I'm interested in this topic for the first time. No regrets though.

My old iPad 1 still has the best battery consumption out of all of the apple mobile products that have passed through my house (of course it's just a backup Netflix device for the kiddos). iPhone 6s is a close second.

I'm expecting battery cycling and some conscious maximization of settings and useage to get me closer to what you folks are claiming.

My last charge on my 12.9 I managed to get to the 60 hours standby time. With 17 hours usage too.
 
I'm going on my honeymoon this Friday and really don't want to take my iPad Pro with me.

Will it hurt my battery if I don't use the iPad or charge it for 3 weeks?

Would it be better to just take it and use it occasionally?
OMG, IT'S YOUR HONEYMOON! I THINK YOU HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN USE YOUR iPAD!;):p
