    The main point of this is in its insane resolution and ability to edit a picture down to an individual pixel. The current technology for drawing on some sort of tablet is MUCH more expensive and far less capable than this. The "pencil" that comes with it is able to detect speed, angle and pressure on the page, allowing for thick, sweeping strokes or a thin, lightly drawn line. This will help for all art majors in college, and may eventually be used in high schools

    Dude, other tech is much more expensive eh? Well I present to you this amazing thing:
    image.jpg
    Pencil and paper! With resolution so high there are literally no pixels! A beautifully designed stylus that can even erase! And the best thing? The price! Only a couple of pounds!

    Seriously though, 4K screens on tablets/phones ain't unique to Apple, LG had them first I believe (or some other company) and before that was the PC master race. Also tablets that measure pressure and stuff extremely accurately ain't new either, other companies have had this kind of technology quite cheap for years.

    Honestly, the only reason Apple made this is because iPad sales were decreasing drastically, all they have done is make an enlarged piece of over priced crap. Also I think with this Apple are attempting to enter the gaming industry as well with the keyboard and what not, but it is too little, too late. It's almost like they are trying to take on Laptop and PC company's but they will never be able to match the power modern laptops contain when they are trying to stuff it all behind a 12" screen.

    Also the iPad started off as a device that was smaller than a computer, thus more portable but had a larger screen than an iPhone for watching videos and such, but this is just stupid, it's ridiculously large and wanders from the original point of an iPad.

    The product is hardly low quality but the price tag is a bit steep.

    1. The iPad Pro is designed for creative professionals who need the screen size to draw, sketch, design, etc.
    2. Because the news network is shitty.
    3. A much-anticipated product which industry employees are drooling over? Just because you are out of the target audience does not mean it is a terrible product.

    it is quite low quality for the price you pay for it, or in comparison to other brands that deliver higher quality for a lower price.

    Again Apple's USP is to be at the top of the market in terms of quality. I'd be happy to reconsider if you could offer a viable alternative for a product with similar functionality.

    I suppose Samsung tables are a great alternative, being much more affordable than an ipad and being of the same/higher quality.

    Samsung doesn't currently have a tablet for the market which the iPad pro is aiming for. The iPad pro isn't aimed at general consumers but enterprise users with larger budget.

    Ok then, an alternative that will completely blow away the whole draw thing of the ipad pro: Pen and paper.
    Simple, yet effective.
