Apple unveils large-format iPad Pro tablet

On the contrary, if it is a slow playing video, like an Opera event, the display will tame down the refresh rate. For instance, the new Apple TV could serve as a hub for Siri to control lamps, thermostats and other “smart” appliances, using Apple’s HomeKit technology. It contains an A9X chip, making it 1.8 times faster than the iPad.

For now, the iPad Pro’s hardware specs are arguably a tad superior to the Surface Pro 3’s. “It is faster than 80% of the portable computers that have shipped in the last 12 months”, Schiller said.

The iPad Pro will also come with a stylus – called the Apple Pencil. The iPad Pro puts out two-times the audio output of the iPad Air 2. It features a battery life of 10 hours and will be compatible with the company’s new physical keyboard to be sold separately.

With such a big screen, Apple needs a new keyboard for the iPad Pro.

MacBook Pro 2016 on the other hand, will contain an Intel Skylake processor under the hood as well as IMC that will offer support for DDR4 and DDR3. The rest of the speech can be viewed on Apple’s website. The Pencil is said to be very precise and highly responsive.

With the iPad Pro, Apple is not only changing the screen size of the iPad but is also adding a few accessories. Though it’s costly, it has all of the features most workers need on their machine. Press harder, and it will create darker strokes. The application boasts of a three-touch horizontal save feature which will ensure you that your original design is always saved, without any prompts. The iPad Pro’s screen is 12.9 inches across and shows 5.6 million pixels. Also used for power and data supply to the keyboard. The Pro also gets a keyboard cover and a pressure-sensitive stylus, called the Apple Pencil, that allows for precise drawing and annotation.

The Smart Keyboard will cost $169 while the Apple Pencil comes at $99. The starting price of the iPad Pro will be $799 (£520) and the device will start selling from November.

Gathering points of interest from those who have tried the new models, 9to5Mac.com uncovers that the version of the new iPad Pro will have components befitting its name.

Not much is known about the tablet beyond rumours and hearsay, but it is touted to be even thinner than the iPad Air 2 at 9.7in and 6.1mm thick.
