Voltron Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Investors are excited. Apple has dropped 2% since the announcements. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I'll be getting the new appletv and the 6S+, and when I'm ready for a new laptop, I'll probably get the ipad pro instead. This was a product announcement day I approve of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopstretch Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I was a little surprised that they went with the 12.9 inch screen on the Pro instead of settling on a standard Tice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMoney Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Very intrigued by the iPad Pro. I'll have to see one in person first to get a feel for the new size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shellylh Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) ipad pro, WANT!!! I've been wanting something like this for the last 10+ years. Edit: Just saw "just don't touch the screen while sketching with the Pencil." Nevermind, maybe this isn't what I want.

Absorbine_Sr Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Apple TV for sure. Beyond that I think I'm good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blessingx Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Sad the AppleTV lost the toslink output (especially with greater Apple Music integration). Though the presentation wasn't super exciting, its timing hit right for needing a new iPhone, iPad, (both lost to previous job) and after waiting forever for the Apple TV revision. So my wallet is probably getting killed this time. Also looking forward to the watchOS update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Apple TV for sure. Beyond that I think I'm good. Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkPretty much this. The Pro seems, well, odd, as it now firmly price competes with what I think are much better actual laptops. There are times my existing iPad seems too big for the limited use it has (for me anyway) of essentially being a content consumption, time-wasting device.

grawk Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'll stick with my mini 3 as my ipad ipad, but when it comes time to replace my laptop, I'm definitely going ipad pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blessingx Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Interesting the mini 3's 16/64/128 storage decreased to 4's 16/32. Also surprised 3D Touch didn't make it to the iPad Pro. Edited September 10, 2015 by blessingx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironbut Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 ipad pro get's my vote!The limited real estate of the previous versions made doing real work super clunky.You needed more than one or you have to switch views to access more controls (buttons, interfaces, sliders etc).I'm not sure if they'll sell very many, but it seems like all their products with the "pro" title are a nod to the professional market.

blessingx Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 ipad pro, WANT!!! I've been wanting something like this for the last 10+ years. Edit: Just saw "just don't touch the screen while sketching with the Pencil." Nevermind, maybe this isn't what I want. Reportedly it was demoed with an arm on the screen while using Pencil (and not interfering). Is that what you mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the keyboard I don't see the Pro as a laptop replacement. But that is just me. If it works for you, then cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I've already done several trips where I left my laptop at home, and just brought my ipad and a keyboard. I have pretty high expectations on what people are going to be able to get done on the ipad pro tho. We'll see how it turns out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvlgato Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I've been on both sides of that one. Currently, I'd rather have a MBA 11".For this round, I'll be getting a 6S+. My first iPhone! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
