Then again, this information does come from an unofficial source so there’s every possibility that it might not be completely correct.
The Microsoft Surface Pro 4 is the tablet/laptop hybrid successor of the Microsoft Surface Pro 3, which released in 2014. The iPad Pro will still work without it. But for optimal performance and productivity, the two accessories can give the tablet an additional layer of flexibility and security from drops and bumps. There’s also a Touch ID fingerprint sensor, and the iPad Pro will be up for grabs in Space Gray, Gold, or Silver color choices.
Not surprisingly, the Apple Pencil is said to be due to go on sale at the same time.
The iPad Pro will also feature an eight megapixel iSight rear camera that comes loaded with additional features such as autofocus, burst mode, and enhanced face detection on top of many other goodies, allowing it to be a quality shooter. It will be interesting to see how both the Galaxy View and iPad Pro take on each other when they finally arrive in the market.
The new Apple iPad Pro is rumored to launch on the first week of November according to Chinese sources. But, the news is yet to be confirmed since there is no official report from Apple yet.
The new, larger-screened iteration is geared towards professionals and creatives and offers the highest display resolution of any Apple device, with 5.6 million pixels. The accessories are also powered by integrated Lithium-Ion battery packs, doing away with AA battery use. Each one corresponds to something that the iPad Pro does differently. However, users and fanboys will have to wait a bit more since there is no indication of these devices releasing anytime soon.
While Sebastian notes that Apple Pencil has “all the usual stylus stuff”, he says that Cupertino’s first stylus manages to feel like “Apple in a nutshell”.
If Apple really wishes for its iPad Pro to be a success, a more viable option would be to launch it before October 26.
