Apple iPads price comparison
The new iPad Pro 12.9 and 9.7 both are really great but the prices are very high as compared to Apple iPad and iPad mini. Here the iPad is the winner with its starting price being $329. It is even less than the price of iPad mini which has the price of $399. With the low priced iPad apple wants to make the fans happy who were disgruntled by the high pricing of previous iPads.

Size, capacity and weight
Let’s discuss the specs of the giant iPad Pro first. Its height is 12 inches and width 8.68 inches. Because of the huge size it has a weight of 1.57 grams.

Apple iPads Pro
iPads pro come with two exclusive features that were not available in iPads before. It comes with smart connector that leads the device to be connected with other hardware like the smart keyboard. Secondly it is compatible with the Apple smart pencil. Apple pencil is a great way for direct input. Although all the inputs can be done with the finger touch too but the pencil provides us with precision and flexibility. It is good for drawing apps where you can make precisely accurate designs and shapes. So many apps will become more fun once you start using the apply pencil. True some apple iPads were compatible with the stylus but according to the reports the Apple pencil is more accurate and easy to use with the apple devices. Also you do not have to worry that it will work with some apps and will not with the others.
Secondly the Smart Connector is also a great device. It will automatically pair any compatible device with the iPad Pro through a magnetic port. So now you can easily use the Apple’s smart Keyboard with your iPad Pro. Right now there may be not many accessories but given Apple’s track record you will have more accessories coming your way soon.
Apple iPads Color options
Although we may be a little disappointed that like the iPhone 7, there is no red edition of iPads also but there is a rose gold color available in iPad Pro 9.7 inch that is different from the rest. Otherwise all the other iPads are available in three standard colors of Space Grey, Silver and Gold. Black color will be missed too by some but then I guess you can buy casing of your favorite color.
So these are the detailed specs of the different options of latest iPads available in the market.
