That’s minus a case and the Apple Care extended warranty required to protect the investment from stretches, damage and faults in the long haul.
While the price point may seem a little extravagant, the iPad Pro is undoubtedly the firm’s most premium iPad yet.
Alongside that 2,732 x 2,048, 5.6 million pixel display, it boasts an A9X processor that outstrips the performance of the latest iPhone 6S handsets. It’s just 6.9mm thick and weighs 712g.
