I played with the new iPad Pros yesterday.
Love them. Wish I could afford to upgrade. I would definitely go 12.9" this time around as the smaller size makes a HUGE difference. I really like the new folio keyboard cover, and I like that it has two different angles to adjust via the 1 on older keyboard smart covers. New pencil is nice...magentic snaps right to the side and thats it.
Screen and pencil has a slight texture feel to it more like real paper...really dig that over the glass smooth feel for sketching.
They did this one right.

I played with them too yesterday 
i really like the 12.9", but I don't like the $200 increase in price over last years.
Also when they said to double tap the pencil to change tools, I didn't realize they meant you had to double tap the pencil itself, not double tap the screen
Kind of neat, but I think I prefer the tactile feel of a button ala Wacom.

I just tested to see if this happens on a Surface Pro, Samsung Tablet and a Amazon Fire and lets just say that now I'm not allowed in Best Buy anymore.

iPad came in clutch, allowed me to troubleshoot an issue and confirm that the adapter was fine and the issue was with macOS. I was able to resolve the issue by creating a new network location in macOS network settings, adapter started working after that. It was probably broken by an update

I didn't watch it, but this is nothing new.
People have been editing 4k footage on the 10.5" iPad Pro ever since it came out?
that Lumafusion app is a pretty good NLE.
Only thing I wish it had was some sort of way to stabilize any shakey footage I got.
ohh and being able to import/export in ProRes would be useful to me.
It would be killer if Apple were to bring Final Cut to the iPad.

Anyone else have this issue with their 10.5” iPad Pro?
I have this on mine but I thought it was cause I got a 3rd party refurbished iPad Pro.
Apparently it’s a very common issue and shows up again on people’s iPads replaced by Apple.

Let’s see.
10.5” Air loses the following vs the 10.5” Pro:
promotion
quad speakers
flash
12mp Camera w/ 4k video
Doesn’t use the X variant chip. (Not sure of the actual performance difference vs the A10X)
maybe less internal ram? Pro has 4GB.
not feeling the need to upgrade my 10.5” pro anytime soon

Currently Post-Acura
Probably going to order a new Mini. It's the only size that fits into the controller for my Mavic Pro (never bought a 4 because of it being so outdated) and I haven't had an up-to-date OS on an iPad since iOS 9 since that's all my iPad 3 was supported to. Wish it got the new pro-style design but for what I'll do with it I should be all good.

Unveils are always interesting to me now.
Sometimes, rumors are scarily accurate.
Other times, they are outdated or flat out wrong.
Impressive, when the true product details are fully locked down and the public doesn't have a clue.
Either way, it's fun to analyze
