iPad Pro 10.5 (256GB WiFi) is the 2017-released next-generation iPad from famous American device manufacturer Apple. It features a redesigned 10.5-inch LED backlit IPS Retina Display which is about 20-percent bigger than the one in previous iPad model which came with a 9.7-inch screen. This increase in screen size adds more room for apps and multimedia viewing especially for games and movies. The Retina Display of iPad Pro supports a faster refresh rate of 120Hz. This essentially ensures better graphics and smooth imagery making everything appear lifelike and incredibly crisp. A full sized on-screen keyboard is available for you as well so you can use the iPad Pro for work just like your laptop.
The device is powered by iOS 10.3.2 operating system from Apple. However, an update to iOS 11 is expected later this year. It offers a number of improvements as compared to the iOS 10 and its versions. The iOS 11 provides a new Dock which allows easy access of running or recently used apps as well as other files. A Split View function allows you to keep two apps active at the same time so you can work with both and do not have to compromise. This opens up a number of creativity options such as giving you the option to work on editing images on Adobe Photoshop while designing a web page side by side or browsing vacation stay options while tallying the dates in your planner etc. The new OS also comes with support for Apple Pencil for iPad Pro. It is a more responsive stylus accessory which can be used for a myriad of tasks such as hand written notes on the screen, drawing/designing, marking up PDFs, scan and signing and a whole lot more.
iPad Pro is equipped with powerful internal hardware components that rival powerful modern-age laptops. It comes with a Hexa-core (six cores) A10X Fusion Chip. Its 64-bit architecture ensures high profile usage such as editing a 4K video, 3D rendering and creation of complex documents or presentations for work. The CPU comes with 4GB RAM, 256GB internal storage and is about 30-percent faster than the one on the previous generation iPad Pro while graphics perform 40-percent faster. So far as physical specs go, the elegant device is only 6.1mm thin and weighs only a pound making it easily portable.
