As expected, in today's keynote the new iPad Pro 9.7-inch, a product with which Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), tries to give the final turn to his philosophy to take back the reins of a segment in which he lived his lowest hours. The flexibility of formats, prices or manufacturers of Android and the push of hybrids, had left the apple tablet somewhat touched. Let's see what your New betLittle news so far in the Cupertino spring event: everything is as expected. The concept iPad Air goes in a dashed line to put a performance twist on the most iconic tablet of all time. It is improved in many ways: camera, support for the Apple Pencil and native keyboard. For the rest, a lot of rhetoric of social commitment in Tim Cook's speech, both with respect to caring for the environment and health and safety. Privacy of users, to strengthen a friendly corporate image.
A new iPad Pro, this time 9.7 inches
Format 9,7 inches It is the best-selling iPad in the history of the iPad, exceeding 200 million units distributed. Apple has decided to return to that size but providing its tablet with some of the features «semi experimental»The iPad Pro, so popular in the world of design, animation or illustration. The idea is to continue capitalizing on the entire catalog of tablet applications that currently exists and seduce users of old PCs to make the definitive leap to the touch format.
Major screen enhancements
It is true that Apple tablets have always had a Very powerful. However, Amazon, Samsung, Microsoft, and perhaps a few other manufacturers, have far surpassed it in recent years. The screen of the new iPad Pro reflexes have decreased by 40% compared to that of the iPad Air 2 and has increased its brightness by 20% (both ensure better viewing outdoors). The range of colors is also expanded and a saturation best of them.
A noteworthy aspect is that we are going to have one of the new features of iOS 9.3: Night Shift. It is something similar to one of the latest developments in Android N and is used to block the blue light from the screen and allow users to sleep better if they have used their tablet before going to sleep. The light sensor on the 9,7-inch iPad Pro also regulates the color temperature depending on the environment to reproduce cooler or warmer images.
Accessories: Smart Keyboard and Apple Pencil
As we anticipated, this iPad Pro with the native add-ons of its older brother, the Smart Keyboard and Apple Pencil, which, according to Phill Schiller is "the best accessory ever created by the apple."
The great leap of the new iPad Pro: its camera
Another of the most talked about issues before Keynote was confirmed: the iPad Pro will have the best camera seen so far on a tablet: the 12 megapixel iSight iPhone 6S, 4K recording, flash, live Photos, panoramas and even the use of the retina screen as illumination for selfies will be present in this team. It is still a private bet. However, people do not stop taking photos with their tablets either, strange as it may seem.
Prices in dollars, for now
Until the Apple website is updated with the new products, we can offer you the price of this new iPad Pro in dollars. The first thing we should point out in this regard is that the 16GB version has finally disappeared (after seeing the presentation of the iPhone SE, we feared the worst). The kind of 32GB it will be the basic one and it will cost U.S. dollar 599 in its variant only WiFi. Then we have versions of 128GB (for $ 749) and 256GB (for $ 899).
