I go to Starbucks regularly with my iPad Air 2 but now I got an iPad Pro 12.9 I have not seen anyone with iPad Pro 12.9. Most of them bring MacBook Pro of all size and some iPad 9.7 but none of Pro 12.9??? Is Pro 12.9 belong at home?
 
The iPad Pro can go anywhere. It's more portable then a Mac or PC. Most people do stay away from iPad only because it does not offer a full Mac replacement or mouse, but it has full Microsoft office and Apple iWork's.

Ive seen several 12.9's. I bring mine all the time. I see everything from iPad mini's to 17 inch giant laptops. Most people still use a traditional laptop. But it's funny that some people seem to think a 12.9 inch tablet is too big to bring into public when the foot print of the 12.9 is basically the same as the new 13 inch mbp.
 
I'm sitting in a starbucks right now using one!

Honestly I have never seen a ridiculous 12.9 iPad Pro at Starbucks the only time I ever saw one in Public was a medical student or MD in scrubs holding one at a Mall Foodcourt and he looked ridiculous and he looked uncomfortable.

It worth the upgrade to the 12.9 iPad Pro from iPad Air 2?

OMG dude you look so cool right now! I bet someone is taking a picture of you as we speak.

Kidding. But to the op, who the hell cares? These are mobile devices. They are meant to be brought anywhere you go. Caring what other people bring only makes you look like one of the sheep trying to follow the herd.
 
Maybe he meant "full" in the sense that there's very little missing for the average user? Regardless, there's probably a better way to clarify that than what you wrote.

full means full. Just like the original desktop companion.
And it is not like the desktop software.

So please stop find excuses "average user" ...
 
But if the iPad and the phone is in the pic, what too the pic?

I took my iPad Pro to a cafe and declared a laptop a better device. Mine stays at home.

I personally wouldn't lug mine out. I would bring my MBP, or iPad Air. However if it were my only device, then I would get a keyboard case for it, or honestly sell it along for money towards a MacBook.

They look silly in public lol.
