The editors didn't like
Smart Keyboard is more cramped
Which makes typing more frustrating
Aside from Apple Pencil support
It doesn't offer a ton of features that the now-cheaper iPad Air 2 doesn't also offer
IOS is still a limiting operating system in a lot of ways
And usi
Optional keyboard can feel a bit cramped
None noted in reviews
NFC only for Apple Pay
Power adapter is too weak and gets hot under load
Storage of the 32 GB version is slower
No quick-charge
Long loading times
High price
Starting price of $599 may be too steep for some
RAM stays at 2 gigabytes
Matching iPad Air 2
Lightning port is USB 2
Only 12.9-inch model has faster USB 3
Ugh
The camera bump
Where to buy
Before you buy a new iPad Pro
See AppleInsider's comprehe
Pricey
Less RAM than the iPad Pro 12.9"
Expensive
IOS apps fall short of Mac and Windows apps in traditional business functionality
Keyboard is on the small side
No expandable memory option
A higher price
Plus expensive accessories. Less RAM and a slightly slower processor than the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. iOS still limits overall flexibility of this iPad
Less RAM than the bigger version
But real-world performance is barely affected
The cost of the iPad is steep
But not everyone has funds to buy this device. The camera was ok when it came to indoor photos
True Tone is a bit pants
Expensive accessories
Limitations on iOS is what preventing this in replacing the laptop
Expensive for a tablet
Starting at $599
Smart Keyboard is small
Rather uncomfortable
And too expensive
2GB of RAM not enough
No microSD card slot
Higher price compared with other iPads at launch
Smart Keyboard needs some work
Reach slightly exceeds its computing grasp
Expensive compared to current iPad Air 2 price
And extra features may not be worth it to a fair number of prospective users. Smaller screen makes for a slightly diminished drawing/typing experience compared to larger Pro. Audio not as good as larger Pro
The iPad Pro 9.7 looks, sounds and performs better than the iPad Air 2 in every way, though you have to look a little closer to realize any of these changes on the outside. Its color-rich display impresses with white-balance adapting screen technology and
This could be a more convincing laptop replacement if iOS took some more cues from OS X El Capitan. I can't work nearly as quickly or efficiently as I can on a MacBook in which I can open multiple programs, windows and tabs. Split screen on an iPad, with
There's a question over whether or not the iPad Pro 9.7 is "innovative," and I think the question should be posed differently. If the niche-focused iPad Pro 12.9 didn't come out six months ago, would this new iPad be "innovative?" I think there's enough h...

Keyboard design; not as Pencil friendly; accessories cost extra
