Just in time for Christmas, Apple have announced that as of Wednesday November 11, the iPad Pro, Apple Pencil and Apple’s new Smart Keyboard are available to order online and will arrive at the retail stores by the end of the week.
“iPad Pro is the most powerful iPad we’ve ever made, giving users the ability to be even more creative and more productive with the epic 12.9-inch Retina display, powerful 64-bit A9X chip and groundbreaking Apple Pencil and new Smart Keyboard. We can’t wait to see what they do with iPad Pro.” – said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing.
Coming in larger dimensions the iPad Pro features a 2.9 Retina display with 5.6 million pixels and a groundbreaking performance with the new 64-bit A9X chip, to rival most portable PCs.
A 10-hour battery life* is a particular bonus whilst the addition of the Apple Pencil enhances creativity levels and ability, providing fluid and natural motions along with incredible accuracy for detailed drawings. The Apple Pencil features a built-in Lightning connector which makes for quick and easy pairing and charging whilst the new Smart Keyboard further extends the utility of iPad Pro, offering a full-sized keyboard in a thin, durable design so you can take it anywhere. The Smart Keyboard attaches to iPad Pro’s innovative Smart Connector port, eliminating the need for a separate battery, on/off switch or Bluetooth pairing.
The iPad Pro starts at £679 for the 32GB with Wi-Fi model and £899 for the Wi-Fi + Cellular 128GB model, coming in three metallic finishes and can be purchased at Apple.com/uk, Apple’s Retail stores, select carriers and select Apple Authorised Resellers. All prices include VAT. The Apple Pencil will be available for £79 and Smart Keyboard will be available in charcoal gray for £139.
