Apple’s Latest iPad Pro Has New Metal Finish, First 256 GB Option

Phil Schiller, Apple senior vice president of worldwide marketing, announces the 9.7-inch iPad Pro at Apple headquarters in Cupertino, California, on Monday, March 21. While it is still a 2048×1536 resolution display, Apple says that it is 40% less reflective, this is great for using the new iPad Pro out in the sun.

The smaller iPad Pro come as Apple has had eight consecutive year-over-year declines in iPad sales, in part because customers have held on to their tablets for years. In the United States, iPad users are expected to grow to 79.7 million, a 1.7 percent increase over the 78.4 million users a year ago, according to eMarketer.

Storage is important because the iPad Pro is capable of shooting 4K video, and more internal capacity will be needed for those large video files.

It will also have the same optional device support as its bigger brother for the much talked about Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard.

Some USB Type-C connections also support Thunderbolt 3, which transfers data at a super-fast speed of 40Gbps (bits per second).

ISTORE Zambia, the official distributors of Apple products, has rolled out the most expansive and productive tablet loaded with nearly double the CPU performance of the iPad Air 2.

The 9.7-inch iPad Pro tablet can be turned into a laptop with a flat keyboard attachment, but it doesn’t have the design flexibility of many new Windows hybrids.

Enterprises, which are in a position to make large-scale purchases of devices like iPads and Windows tablets, are usually slower to adopt things that they aren’t familiar with. Many business hybrids have hardwired keyboards, and they turn into tablets when users rotate their screens. Apple’s 9.7-inch iPad Pro is powered by Apple A9X chipset and feature 4GB RAM.

In addition, Apple unveiled CareKit, a new application software platform for developers to build apps aimed at helping people manage their medical care, and ResearchKit, a framework for bringing medical tests normally performed in an exam room to the iPhone.
