Does it help if you rest the bottom of the iPad on your legs and just use your left hand to steady the iPad? That’s how I use mine if I’m in the recliner.
Got a tip for us?

The second generation iPads Pro were released in June 2017. That’s winter where I live. Could be fall for you, but that’s location specific.
Hmmmm, 4 days after making the jump from 11“ to having both of them...
I use the bigger one more often when I‘m at home or at the office. It‘s also not a problem to take to a café in the Neighborhood.
When I sit at a desk it‘s definitely nicer to have the big screen. But when I‘m on the sofa like right now, I kinda miss the intimacy of the smaller one. This big setup with keyboard feels a lot like a limited MacBook (I actually prefer iOS for all text related work because of the provided focus.).
I RARELY use the tablet without the keyboard just in my handy like I did with the small one. It‘s just better in horizontal mode.
Dont know what to think of it yet. I really like it, but whenever I take the small one into my hands I love how portable it is.
Also I have yet to find ONE task, that I can do much better on the bigger one. It‘s just a matter of comfort for the eyes to be able to see things bigger from a bigger distance.
Sometimes I watch a movie and takes notes on the side, for that, the big one is definitely better suited. But besides that.. hmmmmm.

PPI = pixel density
same pixel density on bigger display area = higher resolution
12.9" 264 ppi: 2732 x 2048
