iPad Pro iPad Pro - Shipping Thread

Well I haven’t placed my order online. With long delivery dates (going into the end of October possibly early November) I visited my local Apple store (I say local it’s around 20 miles or more miles away) they didn’t have any in stock, in fact the guy I spoke with told me that what stock they do get allocated often sells out very quick. luckily I didn’t make the trip especially as I was meeting with a friend anyway.

At this point I think I’m just going to hold out with my 2017 iPad Pro and see what happens. If I can get my hands on one I will but if not I’ll wait. There is rumoured to be an updated version with Mini-LED releasing early next year.

The iPad Pro is definitely in demand! I bet sales will be impacted in a good way at the next quarter announcement.

If you’re in the US, Best Buy has the 12.9 in stock online and delivery is within 1 week.

If anyone was considering a DBrand skin for their iPad Pro. I just put one in my 12.9 Pro. Back and sides. The back I’ve done before. This is the first time I’ve tried the side or edges around the iPP. It was easier lining up the back. Lol. But it does stay on when placing in and out of a case. You just have to line it up by the port or holes first then lay it out. In my opinion. I have another set coming for my 11 iPP. I’m hoping to do a better job. DBrand use to send 2 pair’s of skins. Now they only send one. At least that’s what I got with my order this time.

I think you did a great job! It’s a little harder than you might think, but doable. I watched a YouTube video, and the guy doing it said it was easiest if you lined up the Apple cutout first. Too bad I didn’t see that BEFORE I installed mine, lol.

I’m thinking of Getting Mine without the Apple Logo, just look at how Scratched the Apple Logo was on my Old iPP! I must protect it! For Tim Apple!

Well, the skin offers that 1/100th (?) of an inch elevation for the logo, so the logo itself isn’t actually touching the surface of whatever you’re setting the iPad on. So, it does offer a minimal amount of protection. But, that’s why I ordered a clear case for mine. I want to show off the snappy color. 😎

Just received the clear case, and it looks great! I think it shows off the skin even better. I’d post a picture, but all I get is glare from the case. 😒 It’s the ESR Clear Case from Amazon.

Well, we don't know what the previous version was. We can assume it might have been 0001-0008 but who knows really. At least now we can track it.

Yes... Yes you did.
I had no idea how impatient I would be once it shipped. I seen everyone kept saying the shipping was the worse part, and I was like nahhhh once it’s ships it’ll be a breeze, just any movement from processing and I’ll be ok! 😂
BOY was I WRONG! Shipping is 100% the worse part. You know it’s coming and are constantly on the shipping page reloading to see where it’s at and it’s on your mind all day! 😂 I think I might need to drink a little to get over the IPad Pro shipping blues. 🤣

What's everyone's take on this? I know there are those who prefer a slower charge while there are others who prefer a super fast charge. I figure this is an interesting side topic to help pass the time while we wait.

@DiamondarBoss I came across this post regarding the charging speed/wattage while using the Magic Keyboard and thought you might have some insight or opinion on this. https://appletoolbox.com/how-to-charge-your-ipad-pro-while-using-the-2020-magic-keyboard/ It states that the Magic Keyboard charges at a rate up to 22 watts where as a direct connection to the iPad has a charging rate up to 25 watts. Now this throws everything into question on whether using a 20 watt charger with the keyboard would charge faster then the 18 watt charger with the keyboard, rather then my previous hypothesis that both would be downgraded to 15 watts.

I also stumbled upon this thread https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...m-smart-connector-and-charging-speed.2228357/

Quite literally it's a side topic--that is, left side or right side ... 😁😛 I pick based on the side closest to the nearest wall plug wherever I'm sitting.

Interesting. I'm just so confused over all this different information about this wattage issue and how conflicting the information seems. We should get some professional smart people involved and see what the true answer is. @DiamondarBoss What's you're take?
