Re: I received my iPad Pro…… 😳

@Carmie, I bought an iPad Air a couple of months ago. I love it! It's very fast and so easy to use. It doesn't have a home button but I'm used to that because of my phone. But, it's very easy to get used to, I have an iPad Gen 6 also. When I use that, the home button is kind of a pain. And, I love that the pencil magnetically attaches to the iPad. I had thought about getting the Pro, but this fits my needs. Of course, you can't go wrong with either one!

@Toot1920 Thank you for your reply. I have never had the Air model before, just the mini and regular IPad, both of which I liked.

I looked at the Pro and it wasn't too much different than the AIR, except for the processor and camera, and I wanted a fun color.

I am happy to hear that the Air is fast. My mini is old and very slow. It needs a new battery too. I replaced the battery in my regular IPad using a you tube tutorial, but old is still old, so I decided to just replace the mini with something new instead of ordering a new battery.

I can't wait to get it. I can't use the mini unless I am attached to the cord. The battery is shot big time. I have been using it this way for over a year.

I am sure the home button will take some time for me to get used to....it can't be as bad to operate as Windows 10!

Thanks for letting me know the pencil is magnetic. I was wondering how to keep from losing it.

@Bhvbum, that's terrible! Sorry that happened.

Did you drop it or drop something on top of it?

I actually went the other direction I had the large 12.9 inch iPad, and the glass cracked. I had it replaced and it has never worked right since. So I tolerated it until I got a good deal on a 13"Mac Air. They are essentially the same screen size, and resolution, but I so much like the Mac better, maybe because it has a true keyboard.
The only trouble is they are truly two different operating systems, you cannot get the same apps on the Mac Air as you can on the iPad but I have managed to work around that. So now I'm not sure I will ever go back to the iPad.

I was carrying it up wooden inside steps and dropped it all of about a foot and there was a huge crack going right through the middle. 😩. That's another reason I like the Mac air, when you close it, the screen is always protected. It cost almost $500 to replace the screen so be very very very careful.

Love my iPad Pro! I replace them with every new edition. I used to be an iMac lover but I have come to learn that much of what I use it for, the iPad does easier. I bypassed the iMac Air. Enjoy your purchase! It's great fun and your investment is worth every penny!
