The most powerful Netflix device in the universe

love the demo of the pencil pro, i'm sure a lot of artists appreciate the new function.

“A rotating vibrating … pencil and I hold it on my hand”… was that a pun or is it just me hahaha?

[nazda]

what's the point of pro if the IPAD OS is limited?

[MikeRochac]

In the Pro models there should be a quick switch button from going from iPadOS to MacOS…. It’s a pipe dream I know but that would be amazing

[SaltAndVi]

I have the og iPad Pro, and always used the folding magnetic folio case. Whenever I take the case/cover off I’m always wowed by how slim it is, even to this day. I’m honestly so shocked they’ve managed to make it even slimmer 😮

I wish they would make the back end of the pencil an eraser function.

Is there backwards compatibility with the Magic Keyboard? Otherwise the planned obsolescence is annoying.

[Jayden-lrmm]

This may be the best iPad for doing really intensive and detailed artworks

[markgriffin]

A lot of money for just a device that you can read books, magazines. And watch youtube videos and answer emails. Perhaps if it was about 1/2 the price of what they are asking maybe. But does anyone really need a M4 Chip in the unit????

[kondor]

60hz on the Air? Might as well just keep my iPad…uh, I forgot what gen. It works fine.

[raydden]

As an Artist myself, the ipad pro 13 inch is so appealling with its feature and power...but...i am disappointed at them not making a bigger ipad..like 16inch. And also ..that price point is crazy ...

[jamiehousholder]

The iPad 10 is definitely the one to get? Do you even know what an M4 chip is?

[josevich]

I wish they came out with a new mini. It's the perfect size

[Hemal]

I think Apple forgot what iPads are for and why people get them

The MOST EXPENSIVE TABLET to use for NETFLIX & FB!

[BassedInVegas]

As a hardcore fan of Apple I was pretty underwhelmed with the announcement of these new iPads.
I love all my iPhones and iPads, especially my 12.9 inch 2TB iPad Pro.
If I decide to add another tablet to collection I’ll get the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, it already has many of the features of the just announced iPads but for far less money.
At least Apple finally finally finally started putting the front facing camera in the landscape position, that should have happened with the very first iPad ever released.

IPad Air : for consumers who wants to use for browsing and watching videos
iPad Pro : for consumers who wants to use for creating contents of videos, art, and music

[KittyCat_Cute]

maybe in the future we get the option to switch operating system from ipados to macos and do that whenever we want

[MaiONerds]

So is this for artist? No video editing? Should i go for mac?
