Note: Keyboard Folio and Apple Pencils does not come with iPad pro and you will need to buy them separately.

The new iPad pro comes with an amazing keyboard folio. It’s comfortable for your hands and fingers; you can change the angle of the screen as per your preference. The folio is also designed to better protect the front and the rear of the device. There are two cameras in the device – a 12 MP rear camera, and a TrueDepth front camera. The rear camera can be used for Augmented Reality experiences, scanning, video recording and clicking stunning photos, whereas you can use the front camera for selfies, facetime, and so on.

Size, Connectivity and Miscellaneous

The device has gotten rid of all ports except a USB-C port, which can be used to connect all external devices like external projection, camera, and so on, and to charge the phone. The USB-C port is known for high quality performance and great connection. Of all the things that it has gotten rid of also includes the Home Button. So, to go to Home screen on this version, all you need to do is swipe up.

Gigabyte-class LTE (Long-term Evolution) is a feature in the device, allowing you to connect to 4G network with more speed, and better performance. The device also offers fast Wi-Fi connectivity.

The new iPad Pro is the most portable iPad ever, as it is the slimmest iPad ever, and weighs only around a pound. This is quite impressive, considering that it’s packed with so much power. Speaking of power, the device can be used continuously for 10 hours without charging. The device looks stunning, as it is available in two colors – silver and space grey.

Core Price and Add-ons

The 12.9 inch iPad Pro starts from $999, whereas the 11 inch version starts from $799. Depending on the storage, accessories and connectivity feature, the price gets higher. For instance, the device with the storage of 1 TB would cost $750 extra, and if you desire both Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity, it’ll cost you $150 extra. Also, the Apple Pencil would cost you an extra $129, and the smart keyboard folio an extra of $199.

Altogether, if your purchase a 12.9 inch iPad Pro, with 1 TB storage, that also has Wi-Fi + cellular connectivity, a beautiful  Apple Pencil and smart keyboard folio, you’ll have to pay a grand total $2227 only.

So in our opinion, the new iPad Pro is really going to be loved by everyone and will win the market of tablets around the world, and it does have certain features that challenges the most powerful PCs out there. However, the thought that it could be a complete replacement of the PC is a bit skeptical one. Sure, certain user might try to use it for their PC based projects, but there are many others who may not find it as comfortable to work with. Also, the total cost for a 1 TB iPad Pro with Apple Pencil and Keyboard Folio is way much higher than a normal PC. This is one of those things that only time can tell.
