Apple’s powerful iPad Pro: One month later

“Time flies when you’re working! It’s hard to believe that I just looked at my calendar and realized that I’ve had my iPad Pro now for 32 days,” Terry White writes for Terry White’s Tech Blog. “I figured it was time to give you guys an update now that I’ve had a full month to experience it, work on it, travel with it and use Apps that were designed to take advantage of the larger display size and more importantly Apple Pencil.”

“If you have no use for the best stylus/tablet combination in the mobile space right now, then the iPad Pro is probably not for you. Before my Apple Pencil had arrived I had spoken with people that had tried it, including colleagues. Everyone I talked to raved about it and said things like “game changer” and one month later I would have to agree. The Apple Pencil and iPad Pro were designed to work together,” White writes. “That’s why the Apple Pencil doesn’t work with any previous iPad model or iPhone.

The display in the iPad Pro was engineered to work very very very precisely with Apple Pencil. I use a Wacom Cintiq as my main display on my desk. So I work with a stylus every single day. Until now, nothing in my mind compared with that experience. That was until I tried Apple Pencil and iPad Pro.”

“Probably the most unexpected benefit for me with the iPad Pro was being able to leave my Wacom Intuos Pro small graphics tablet at home (maybe for good),” White writes. “Thanks to an amazing iOS/Mac app called Astropad I can use my iPad Pro as a wireless/wired display and graphics tablet to my MacBook Pro. This gives me a Wacom Cintiq alternative for travel.”

MacDailyNews Take: iPad Pro isn’t just for artists. It’s also for those who use multitasking heavily. It makes researching, writing, assembling quotes, etc. doable versus all other iPads, where doing so it just a bit too tedious.
