Walked in the Apple Store today to buy a new iPad Pro and the new 2017 15" inch Retina Macbook Pro.

I tried the new the iPad Pro 10.5 and it is faster than my iPad Air 2. But I still see it more like a blown up 5"5 iPhone 6S Plus rather than a PC that I see people writing in reviews.

I would probably leave the iPad Pro 10.5 at home while I take the 5.5 iPhone 6S plus with me to work as it fits in my pocket and I can do the same things on it.

Yes, the iPad Pro is a personal computer. It can accomplish many tasks that many people use a traditional laptop for. It comes down to preference of form factor, preference of OS, and the task at hand.
