Guys, I’m so excited! There are so many things I’m curious about that I'm excited to finally get the answers to.

• M3 or M4?
• Pricing
• OLED display specs
• What will the new design look like?
• Will there be a weight reduction?
• Any new colors?
• Apple Pencil Pro features: haptic feedback and eraser on the top?
• Any other features we’re not aware of?

Interesting the store isn’t down. Would have expected it to switch to be right back if things were to change / pre orders were to go live. Then again maybe Apple has found a way to update without taking the whole site down?

Interesting observation. I don’t think the iPad Pros will be available to preorder until Friday given that the iPadOS 17.5 RC beta hasn’t even been released yet, and there’s always at least a week between RC and final release.

I would’ve thought the iPad Air would’ve been available to order right away though, which means the store should be down now. Maybe they require iOS 17.5 too?

Have we finally arrived at this moment that people have been waiting for since the beginning of March... Time flies, though maybe not so much for those who sold their iPads waiting for this announcement.

March, 2021.

I think Airs will be available to order right after the event and Pros on Friday.

I know the rumors, but it would be suicide for the Pro line if these things are more than $100 over the M2 version.

Well M4 and OLED? Could be more expensive for sure. We shall know in a couple of hours though.

I hope we’ll have some sort of redesign as well! Not seen any leaks on the design itself yet.

Lack of such leaks and absence of the store being down makes me wonder if we've got a while yet to pre-order. e.g the pride watch band announced yesterday not being available until the 22nd. Hope I'm wrong though.

Store is down 👀

Can you even see it? I can't even FEEL it!

M4 😮

I wonder whether the nano texture glass will remove the need for a screen protector, or be dampened by one?

I just ordered my iPad Pro. Yes, the prices were bad, but not as bad as I expected. It's a maxed out model and I'm excited for it. I've been eight months without an iPad

I'm still buying a screen protector anyway because I'm not spending an insane amount of money on an iPad without any protection. It'd be foolish to spend an obscene amount of money and not protect your investment,

Edit: I can't seem to find the Paperlike screen protector for the 13" M4 model on Amazon. I'm in Canada btw

 

[Apple Mac Daz]

Is a nano display really needed for indoor usage

 

[3JL]

Ordered

Never had a screen protector on any iPad just AC+

Will cellular providers like AT&T offer them today as well? currently it's not showing on the site.

Finally, 59 pages later, we have launch!!!!

 

[cmbarclay]

Honestly I want a new iPad Pro so bad... my gut tells me tomorrow will be 35 minutes of the just new Apple Pencil Pro, how amazing it is and how it will change peoples lives.

Boy was I wrong Just ordered the iPad Pro Silver 13" 1TB and White Keyboard. Why Silver and White? I love the Black but I drop my sh*t 😂
