Stopped by Best Buy and they only had the 64 gig in stock (I don't watch many movies and use iCloud and OneDrive for storage.) I am a little nervous about capacity however I don't fly much anymore and a few albums don't take up much space for a plane ride. I am loving this thing!!! The videos don't do it justice, the screen is noticeably better than my 12.9 and the speed is insane. Picking up my iPhone 7 plus feels noticeably slower. It's light, it's fast and the speakers sound every bit as good as its big brother. I couldn't be happier.

Congrats. I got the 64 gb Verizon model. I have unlimited data so I stream everything anyway. I find the 64 for me is plenty. Glad you enjoy yours.

Are you saying the screen is better than the 12.9? They are identical. Or do you mean the gen 1 12.9?

From what I understood, he owns (or owned) the 1st Gen 12.9, and the 10.5 screen is much better than his original 12.9. The TrueTone display does seem to make a huge difference.

Ok, that's what I was thinking too (previous version 12.9").

I now have both of the new iPad Pros. Everything is basically identical except for the screen size (obviously). But there is also a difference in sound quality. The 12.9" has noticeably better audio quality and it is louder. The speakers are larger. Or at least there are more speaker holes on each side, so I assume the actual speakers are larger. 8 holes per speaker versus 10 holes per speaker on the 12.9" model.

Not that the 10.5" has bad sound, not at all. The larger iPad is just better. Both are way ahead of any other tablet, however.

I got my second 10.6 64GB Cellular yesterday, returned the first one to Apple as it had a really noisy home button and was bowed top and bottom, this one is great, my wife has my pro 9.7 and i sold her air 2.
This one came from a major retailer and i got a $200AUD credit voucher for spending over $900. So was worth it.
Good EOFY tax deduction too.
Using this case for now does the job had one for the pro 9.7.
