History

Announced on September 9, 2015, the iPad Pro was released on November 11, 2015. Three configurations are available: Wi-Fi only models with 32 GB or 128 GB of storage space, and a 128 GB model with cellular connectivity. New features include a Smart Connector for a keyboard and four stereo speakers positioned in pairs on the top and bottom of the device. The screen is a 12.9-inch Retina display with 2732 by 2048 resolution at 264 pixels per inch and features a variable refresh rate. Two accessories specifically designed for iPad Pro are available – a detachable keyboard and a stylus, Apple Pencil, both sold separately. On March 21, 2016, a new 256 GB storage option was added.
