Guys, my iPad Pro will arrive in a few days. I’ve been using iPads without screen protectors for years and have never broken or scratched one. Do you think it’s worth buying one for my new iPad? How tough is its glass in comparison with older iPads?
Got a tip for us?

Well, it’s definitely thinner. I don’t use a screen protector. But, if you really want to protect your iPad without AppleCare+, go ahead and get one.
I reccomend the Zagg one. Had one on my old iPad Pro, worked great for a long time.

Whats the status of ur ipad pro . Mine still not shipped. Estimated delivery 28-05th november
I'm in the same position as you. I've been using my iPad Pro for a month now without protector. I still feel anxious about it. Before using pencil I wipe with microfiber cloth. Here in Turkey there is no such a thing Apple Care so I'm still going back and forth for buying a protector. 3rd party cheap ones are really.... cheap and useless. ? On the other side I couldn't find a better one also.
Last but not least what if I dont like the protector? Does putting it and then removing it effect the screen at all?

Thank you! I’ll take a look at it.
Same, but I hope it changes in the next few days.
Yep, I have the same thoughts ?
The screen protector should not affect the screen in anyway if you get a high quality Tempered Glass one. Take a look at the Zagg I mentioned earlier. Came off my old iPad Pro, leaving the screen pristine.
Been lurking hear for over a month. Received my new iPad Pro this afternoon 10/28. Delivery est. was shown as 10/23 to 10/30 and it arrived as you all said it would. Came with the 20w charger. Thanks for all the info You guys made the long wait better.
All those people who received their iPad with 20W charger.... You lucky monsters. I'm so jealous of you. ?
Till yesterday it was showing this on my replacement .
But from today morning it is showing that 'we will update the delivery date when we recieve the return.
Why it is showing this , is this an error or i should talk to the apple.
My ipad was picked up on 7th october then why its showing again this

Contact Apple Support. I don’t know why it’s showing that.
Mine just went to preparing to ship this morningm it took a day to arrive for you after preparing to ship?
It looks like the physical Apple stores continue to have iPP’s in stock. My Mom just ordered a 12.9” iPP 256GB SG about 30 minutes ago. She will be picking it up at the Apple Store later today. I told her how lucky she was for not having to endure the weeks long wait that most of us experienced.
Don’t mind me, just leaving this here in hopes that this thread will push it towards shipping.
maybe Apple is catching up to demand now? I can only hope! Mine isn’t due for delivery till Nov 10-17. However they must be getting better because I ordered on the 26th night I think. When I went through some pages of this thread the wait time was closer to 4-5 weeks rather than 2-3.
been stalking the thread and my window opened today .. hoping I get some luck by posting..
My arrives in email have 27 oct-3 Nov
my status is
Is possible that not come?

It came within 48 hours of the status changing to ”preparing to ship”.
Contacted them , they are saying dont worry your ipad is with us. And will be delivered within the time frame. And Call us after 5th november (delivery date) if not recieved .
But the thing is not looking good for me. Hope it deliver within that date
Something’s happening! Really wish it could have been here for this weekend, but I’m just glad it’s moving at all ?
I ordered my 11 inch 128gb 10/07 and it's not doing anything.. Hopefully, you have it early next week
Crazy that you ordered yours earlier than me but your shipping window is later. Fingers crossed that yours starts to move too ?
Now I kind of wish I had ordered mine later
? lol!Didn’t know they were now coming with 20W chargers.
