Apple introduces a 9.7 inch iPad Pro Specs Price

Apple introduces a smaller iPad Pro, sporting a smaller 9.7 inch at 2048 x 1536 resolution with Wide color and True Tone display, True Tone Display uses ambient light sensors to adapt the color and intensity of the display to match the light in your environment. Night Shift feature is also new feature that puts a blue filter on the screen so as your eyes won't be strained when using in Low Light condition and helps you sleep. Same design aesthetics as of its bigger sibling but 9.7 inch will come in Rose Gold color other than Silver, Gold and Space Gray.

Internally, it packs the same A9x chipset with M9 coprocessor with 2GB RAM. Storage options comes in 32GB, 128GB and now 256GB. Not much of a difference there but with smaller display size, 9.7-inch iPad Pro should be more efficient.

9.7-inch iPad Pro comes with better iSight camera at 12MP BSI with f/2.2 aperture, 5-element lens, and Hybrid IR Filter proted by Sapphire Crystal Lens Cover supported by True Tone Flash. Front Facetime camera is at 5MP with f/2.2. Huge difference compared to 8MP rear / 1.2MP front of 12.9 inch iPad Pro.

Apple Pencil is supported by the 9.7 inch model and also will have a keyboard case accessory for working with documents. Newer accessories were also revealed such as USB camera adpater and SD Card Reader which let you connect and host USB devices and storage (Finally). Fingerprint Sensor integrated with Home Button for Touch ID.

Complete set of connectivity with WiFi ac MIMO and Bluetooth 4.2. For Cellular models, LTE data connection and GPS.

Built inside is a 27.5‐watt‐hour rechargeable lithium‐polymer battery quoted up to 10 hours of surfing the web on Wi‐Fi, watching video, or listening to music. For Cellular models, up to 9 hours of surfing the web using cellular data network.

Well I was not surprised that they release a smaller iPad Pro such that 12.9 inch was so big for a tablet to carry around. 9.7 inch is just right and with its size and keeping internal hardware the same, tablet should out perform its big brother. Not only efficient but also takes better pictures and videos. For sure, this iPad Pro will sell more.
