Ordered a 512GB version of the 12.9 last night (along with the 2nd gen pencil) and it's being delivered tomorrow, upgrading from a 2017 10.5 64GB iPad Pro and can't wait :D

Exactly my situation (+ magic keyboard), you won’t regret it! The larger screen size is a bit of an adjustment but I’ve gotten used to it and I really enjoy the extra screen real estate, especially for note taking! It has actually changed my entire productivity workflow.

For times where I’m in the mood for a smaller screen I still have my 10.5 which for all intents and purposes is still a great device.

Thanks, I'll keep an eye out. Although I hate the fact Currys don't send items out in boxes - they just use a grey plastic mailing bag.
Got it delivered during lunch, came in an external box and remembered what you said and thought it might alleviate that concern.

Blimey. Apple must be supplying with postal boxes by the look of things. Enjoy!
They all come in that brown box regardless of where you purchase from. Seems this is how Apple are shipping to both customers and distributors.

Pretty much the same as me (came from 10.5" to 12.9" now). Since I sold my old iPad a couple days before, I couldn't directly compare the sizes, but using the new one it didn't feel much different (though I bet if I held the 11" now I would think it's so light and small!).

2nd gen apple pencil coming from AmazonUK today too
Mine is being delivered between 14:31-15:31 according to the email this morning. I can finally test everything out, like the Magic Keyboard and 2nd gen Pencil that have been sitting here for a few weeks.

It should be a great upgrade from my 2017 iPad Pro (at least i'm hoping so after spending so much money lol)

Anyone order with Sky Mobile? How long from Order to delivery? They say August now, but wondering if it might be quicker than they claim.
