That and it's targeted towards professionals as a supplementary product. For amateurs this can be a light all in one solution.
No one is expecting you to make Pixar's next project or your next film on an iPad Pro. What it does great is that it provides you with a quick on site solution by letting you make edits, sketches, and more on the fly and on the go when you don't have your Mac Pro and other equipment to do the job.
The price itself is competitive with Wacom stylus and other products and it arguably offers more.
With the pencil you're able to make notes and edits of your work away from your working computer.
For art students this is amazing because you won't have to carry all your sketchpads, pencils, and other gear everywhere. That stuff gets very heavy and cumbersome fast. iPad Pro gives you a lighter and portable alternative to all that. It also translates to graphic design much better since you don't have to end up scanning your sketchpad or any of your physical tools.
With iCloud, once you're done you can upload your psd or other files and share with your other devices via wifi or LTE.
It definitely has an audience and it being on iOS isn't a deal breaker at all. If I were a student I would definitely get one since it would streamline my entire work ecosystem and give me more productivity and flexibility.

By reilo Go To PostExcept iOS has the best sketch app out there: https://www.fiftythree.com/Sure. Cept you can do all that on a current ipad. Plus, the wacom bamboo spark sounds much cooler and like it would be much more portable and is only $160. Seriously, watch the video, it looks really cool.

The increase in screen size and cpu power is meant to make it take on the surface, but iOS limits that versatility significantly.
It tops out a 128gb HDD size. Which really isn't much.
The pen design is really poorly thought out, for an extra $99.
So if its not going to compete against the Surface Pro, why do you have a massive CPU that is going to burn through power like no tomorrow and the accessories like the pen / keyboard.
Talking to the guys in the Mobile Innovations lab, who are usually die hard apple fans I was expecting a big circle jerk, but they've been really dismissive of the pro. Apple have tried to go for a hybrid ipad/surface pro but missed the mark. They would have just been better off going on full copy mode and just made an apple version of the surface.
Never found drawing or sketching on an iPad with any kind of stylus to be any fun but then again I'm not an artist.
Phone shipped! Managed to call FedEx and let them know the suite number that I forgot to write down. But I won't get to see my phone until Monday ;_;
Waiting for my iPhone 6S to ship in Canada from Rogers.
I've never had an iPhone before, first time switching over from Android. After I bought my first Macbook earlier this year, I decided it was time to make the leap with my phone too.
I bought an Orange silicone case from Apple - but I don't know if I'll end up using it or going caseless (prefer this always).

Got mine yesterday. 3D touch is neat but it won't be revolutionary till more apps take advantage of it in creative ways
Apparently the iPhone 6S is extremely water resistant or waterproof? There have been a couple tests on youtube so far confirming it and I tried running my iPhone under the sink today.
It still works 100% and the water damage indicators have not been tripped yet after visiting Apple about it.

the pro is pretty damn expensive for a "oh I forgot my macbook" device
art students have a legit use case, but I can't imagine designers taking it seriously

By cloudy Go To PostGot mine yesterday. 3D touch is neat but it won't be revolutionary till more apps take advantage of it in creative waysIt'll never really be a revolutionary feature, it's just a more intuitive alternative to long press or double tap. Still very good though, and will be even better with haptic feedback improvements in future models.
I actually had thought about those homescreen shortcuts with a long press, since long press was a waste of an action just to make the icons jiggle. It still is, but at least there’s an alternative.
By Shun Go To PostHow is iOS 9 treating everyone else?
Glitchy as fuck. Has some cool features, but it's surprisingly glitchy for an iOS.
