History

The 9.7-inch version of the iPad Pro was announced on March 21, 2016 and began commercialization on March 31, 2016. Compared to the iPad Air 2, it features a faster processor, improved cameras, a True Tone display and the Retina flash. It also introduces a 256 GB storage option. Similarly to the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, it includes the A9X chip and the Apple M9 motion coprocessor. Two accessories designed specifically for iPad Pro are available – a detachable keyboard and a stylus, Apple Pencil, both sold separately.
