Thats 2gb ram, im s... moreI didn’t get the Pro 10.5” because the difference doesn’t justify the $400 extra with almost the same screen real-estate, no apparent parallax that can bother me when drawing. I wanted the 12.9 but there will be likely a refresh this October. It takes another 2 months for it to arrive in my region (December). I can’t wait that long (5 months) to finally get the hardware that works with Procreate.

IÂ’m cheap-skating on the iPad Pro 10.5, but I know I really want to get the 12.9.

For the meantime, I could live with the smaller maximum 33 megapixel (8,192 x 4,096, 2 layers) limitations on the iPad 2018, versus the 67 megapixel resolution (16,384 x 4,096, 4 layers) with any of the Pro because they have 4gb RAM. These are the maximum limitations if you go for higher resolutions with Procreate.

As for the higher storage memory capacity, I actually need the space for my 60+ GB (1000+) worth of architecture and art e-books and pdfs; video recording of my Procreate processes in 4K; and utilise storage for media entertainment without the need for internet connection. 128 GB seems to hit the right spot at this time as well.

So far, I am enjoying the Apple Pencil with Procreate and learning the basics of plotting perspective drawings with snapping grids and rulered lines. Just the thing I need. And if indeed the new iPad Pro 12.9” will come with 6GB RAM, I will think 100 megapixel resolution over the current 67 mp would give me a tremendous boost on making more elaborate, more impressive drawings/paintings for the next 3 years. I think that’s worth the wait.

          Taking a second look at the 10.5" iPad Pro and comparing it with this 2018 "budget" iPad with Pencil, I do not see a significant reason for paying at least $400 more for increased memory space, and increased resolution because of the more RAM is better off with a bigger screen. So I was looking for the 12.9", and shops have stopped stocking them. I suspect this is due to the eventual refresh this coming October.

          So, I settled for the iPad 2018 128GB, for an additional $100 than the 32GB version. This is until I get the upcoming 12.9" Pro refresh this coming October. I would hate it if I bought the current one and Apple made the refresh with a probable 6GB RAM and up to 1TB space.

            Right now I'm using apple ipad and it's a really good product for me where its battery condition is very Good. Easy to open and its applications are much easier to access and its sound and display color quality is very good. apple ipad ram 2gb any application you can open it fast i can help you this phone will be good for you i mean here i am talking about apple ipad here you can browse your internet faster via wifi. Apple iPad's camera is 8 megapixels but its video resolution is very good so you can easily use it as a youtube creator for uploading videos to youtube. But I think Apple iPad could have a product like Radio if it could be better. The apple ipad has its own sound system, its sound is not high, so I will not say very good sound, but you can hear its beautiful sweet voice through the headphones. apple ipad is a really good service, but its price is a bit more. If you have any problems with apple ipad, you can solve this problem by contacting the company like {applesupportnowdotcom}, which will be a lot more helpful for you. With my own opinion and ideas I can say apple ipad you can certainly buy and if you are a fan of fans of Apple. Call : +1 855-707-0673

For more than half the price for a set than the 10.5" Pro, I sure as heck don't complain about how the glass is "more slippery" for the Pencil. It goes glides good on the surface on the screen. Perfect for those long lines strokes I want. Overall, I'm thrilled that the Pencil performs as well as the iPad Pro version. http://flic.kr/p/29hMztb

              I've tried the Pros, and I don't remember those having less slippery screens. I'm already selling this 32gb to get the iPad Pro 10.5 512 GB because I have finally realized I need something with a higher memory capacity. I am skipping even the regular 128 GB iPad. I thought I needed the 12.9 but that would have been very difficult to carry around.

                    AnonD-632062, 19 Jul 2018Oh no! You were supposed to destroy the Sith, not join them... moreFunny. I fell in love with the Apple Pencil having the best response with the Procreate app over a year ago. Procreate is not on Android that does 90% of what drawing with Photoshop can do. The S Pen is great, and I have bought the S Pen of the Tab S3, however, Autodesk Sketchbook on Android just can't match the intuitive interface of Procreate.

                    My main reason for getting devices are those that will aid me in drawing and painting. Apple and Procreate offer the best experience on a tablet. I have saved up and was waiting for the iPad Pro refresh, but, trying out this ordinary iPad with the Pencil integration at HALF the cost of a Tab S3 is just too enticing to pass. It's making me rethink about why would I be using the Galaxy Note for my drawing studies prior to my actual artwork on paper. I will eventually get the iPad Pro 12.9 512 GB.

                    The 9.7" is convenient to carry, but the 12.9 will be something to use for very serious pieces and commissioned work.

                      Ok theatrics, aside... I still can't believe you of all people would use iOS.

                      I thought you would wait for the Tab S4 with S-Pen, which finally brings back the widescreen ratio to a flagship Samsung tablet. I was sure you would also like the upcoming Note9 with 4000 mAh.

                      But price-wise, I must agree the iPad 9.7 is great. But still, maaaaybe you could have gone for the Tab A with S-Pen, for your students.

                          I am officially an iOS user with this iPad (32 GB) mainly since it has the Apple Pencil integration. The Pencil integration and the Procreate app just nailed it to finally get this for some drawing, and replaces my old Note 8 of 2013. The resolution of some 5000 to 8000 pixels is more than enough for sketch studies, and I am just enjoying the experience.

                          At more than half the price of an entry iPad Pro, I'm convincing my school to get dozens of these for my students to draw with.

                              Im still using my old ipad mini and lg g pad...both works perfectly but i like more my LG G Pad because of the screen display.....i do not like retina display....

                                I have this Ipad since 3 April and I'm very pleased with it. I have even jailbreak on it, because I kept the 11.3 ios version. Mainly I use it for Procreate app along with Apple Pencil. It is cheaper then Ipad Pro, but a good substitute.

When it comes to battery life and charging speed i think its just down to pure luck, i assume that apple also recycle batteries and whether you get a recycled one or brand new one is just down to chance.

Your review isn't correct, and I just want to point out that..
