The new 12.9" iPad Pro features an advanced Liquid Retina display that goes edge to edge.¹ Face ID, so you can securely unlock iPad Pro, log in to apps, and pay with just a glance. The A12X Bionic chip is faster than many PC laptops and easily runs pro apps. All-day battery life.³ Wi-Fi. Over a million apps available on the App Store, including augmented reality experiences. And the new Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard Folio help you be even more creative and productive.² It will make you rethink what iPad is capable of - and what a computer is capable of. 
A: Apple was too cheap to add a $9 dongle to plug into your USB C charging port with all the money we paid for this iPad. You can either buy one of these dongles online or at select stores to use your regular headphones or buy a wireless Bluetooth headphone to pair with your iPad. Apple provides these with their new iPhones but not with any iPads. Hard to believe.
A: I had the same disappointment, though in my case I couldn't connect my new iPad Pro to my 3 year old Macbook Pro. Fortunately, lots of people make and sell the kind of cable we need. I've bought two USB-A/USB-C cables, neither from Apple, both work for communication. I assume they would also work for charging.
A: As fantastic as the iPad Pro is, if you do serious design perhaps you should get the computer-like MacBook Pro or MacBook Air for speed, filing, etc. I think it depends on the type of design, like CADD vs free-hand. The Air is no heavier than the iPad with its cover/stand necessary for portability, but only the iPad has a touchscreen!
A: Right now it does not support mouse. It will in October after software update. I’ve had 3 devices connected to it with no issues. Bluetooth on this device is new generation Bluetooth 5. It has increased bandwidth, so I don’t think more devices would be an issue.
Q: Is there an unlocked version?
A: Yes, under the carrier option you can choose WiFi + Unlocked.
A: Hello Lisa, Screen size, be it TV or laptop or tablet, is calculated diagonally... the specs heigh and width you mentioned are the actual physical size of the whole iPad with the bezel included. Hope this answered your question. Thanks -
Q: Need to invest in a newer laptop. Do you recommend the IPad Pro instead?
A: Depends on what you want to do. This is a great device but it doesnt replace a full on desktop or laptop in my opinion.
A: Just cancel your preorder and head into the store and get it. The stores have been getting shipments every day and have had stock consistently. The Best Buy preorder system is an absolute joke, no use in using it.
