The editors didn't like
The accessories cost extra
Too big to hold up for any period of time
Expensive
Especially for a tablet
And especially if you're adding $250 worth of accessories to it

And we're still waiting for many apps to add support for the multitasking features (and

A pocketable tablet
A traditional laptop
OS X or Windows software
Especially with the accessories sold separately
Still heavy compared to other tablets
No mouse support
None of the keyboards have touchpads
Screen angle isn't adjustable on any of the keyboards
IOS 9 doesn'tmultitask as wellas desktop oper
Very expensive
Pencil and Apple keyboard pretty much unavailable for a month. As big and heavy as a 13" MacBook Air when paired with keyboard
Too large for one-handed use
Keyboard lacks touchpad
Nowhere to put Apple Pencil
IOS 9 not fully optimized for big screen
Touch-centric UI with keyboard is awkward
Apps don't quite complete your workflow
At launch
Very few apps are currently optimized to take advantage of the iPad Pro's full potential. Its large size makes it less portable than other iPads. Once you've paid for the Pencil and keyboard peripherals
The iPad Pro costs as much as a good lap
IOS 9 needs more consistent cross-app support and a easy file system to replace OS X for power users
Apps don't yet properly utilize the larger screen size
Even some of Apple's own
Apple cheaped out with last-gen cameras and Touch ID
Where to buy
Alo
Software keyboard bug
IOS is starting to how its limitations
Not all apps are updated yet for the bigger screen
Stylus is pricey
Not attachable
Keyboard case has few stand positions
So-so battery life
No built-in stand
USB ports
MicroSD slot
Pricey
Accessories come separate
Niche
IOS still has some limitations
Peripherals add considerably to cost
Builtin apps could have been taken further
Requires a new way of working
Expensive. Can be unwieldy and uncomfortable to use at times. Accessories add to price
Making it no less expensive than a laptop. Portability suffers due to larger size. Some apps look “off” on huge screen. Though the device is not ideal for photography
Pricey starting cost of $799
Few apps are optimized to take advantage of its larger screen
Not all apps are supported by its enhanced multitasking features
Battery life could've been longer
Extremely long recharge time
Comparatively bulky
No removable memory card slot
Lightning port instead of USBC
It's expensive
It's really big
Overpriced accessory keyboard
Not quite a PC replacement
Surprisingly buggy software
Lackluster cameras
Almost as expensive as a laptop
Even without core accessories
Its PCkilling visions imagine a world in which nobody lives. It's really big. The price gets high fast
Abstract: Posted September 11th, 2018 by rob-ART morgan, mad scientistOn the eve of Apple's rollout of the 2018 iPad Pro (3rd Generation), I thought it would be a good time to revisit how the 2017 iPad Pro (2nd Generation) compares to the top 2018 13-inch MacBook...

If you're looking for a tablet with a bigger screen, the iPad Pro might be for you. It comes jam packed with features, is equipped with iOS 9 and has a front-facing camera for quick and easy snaps. Then there's the battery life – which is considerably mor...

Fantastic screen, Slim design with excellent build quality, Strong performance, Best iPad camera yet
iOS still isn't great at multitasking, Only has half the RAM of the larger model, Optional keyboard is cramped
Calling it a full-blown laptop replacement is a stretch, but Apple's new 9.7-inch iPad Pro is the best conventional tablet the company has made. It combines the power of the original 12.9-inch iPad Pro with the thin frame of the iPad Air 2. Additional...
