QUOTE(Mavik @ Jul 8 2017, 07:20 PM) Purchased the 10.5" iPad Pro 256Gb Wifi+Cellular at Mac Studio at Paradigm mall earlier this afternoon. Not bad, going to list my iPad 9.7" at the Garage sales soon. Yup, 10.5 inch is seriously a major upgrade from 9.7 inch one. Obviously last year 9.7 inch iPad Pro is simply a transition product.

Every reviewer was like "you can't see in YouTube but you'll definitely see it in person", so i was a bit disappointed i cant see the difference even when i used it next to the cheap ipad. Lol. But this pro is a bit overkill for me. As much as i like the bigger screen, I'd rather buy the 2017 ipad and use my laptop for works.

Yes I used to think that but I realised that the 9.7" iPad for me isn't enough. I use the iPad a fair but coupled with a laptop. So the pro was a good need for me

My usage for ipad is mostly media & gaming. My only problem with ipad 2017 is 32gb as base model. My current ipad 32gb just barely make it.

The Promotion technology will regulate the refresh rate based on what you are doing. If the task doesnt need high refresh rate, the display will be adjusted to stay at 24 or 60hz.

But reviewers said you can see the difference from scrolling the home page so that's what i did. Haha. But nevermind. It just means it's not that significant for me to notice.

No. 16gb is not enough. 32gb still have enough rooms for apps and games etc. And also room for future iOS upgrade. 16gb is totally out.

QUOTE(Mavik @ Jul 7 2017, 12:21 PM) Yes, used to have a 12.9" iPad Pro but it was too large, too heavy for my usage. Especially one handed usage is tough QUOTE(westlife @ Jul 7 2017, 02:41 PM) no prob. but eventually go with your own heart as you are the only one who really know what you need. Thanks, may i know the 10.5 inch already can buy in Malaysia Shopping mall Apple distributor?

Kind of regret didnt go for 512 GB. depends on what are you doing on the ipad pro i guess. 256gb to a tablet is considered a lot i would say. of course if u can really make the ipad pro a replacement of laptop, then no harm to go for 512gb also.
