2017-06-05
this is the new 10.5 inch iPad pro it is of course a little bit bigger than the nine point seven inch iPad pro but due to the bezel size the screen is 20% larger but the more interesting thing about it other productivity features that you get with iOS 11 and iPad pro so let's check those out first thing you're going to notice is that there is a dot just like you would have on Mac this is a new way to basically get to your apps you can tap on something in the dot opens the app and then if you swipe up select another app drag it and get you to your multitasking mode close it just by going like that you can either press the home button to go back to the home screen or if you're in an app you can do this kind of four finger swipe up it's taken me a few tries there we go to get to all of your your apps these are your recently opened apps down here these are other ones that you might probably use these are all Apple apps so that's probably the most notable new thing about the iPad there is the dots on it now another thing that you can do now on iPad that you couldn't do before is you can drag and drop apps so you can move them on to the dock you'll notice that the little X didn't appear because you're not deleting an app you're just moving it so you can do that you grab another one would off of the dock you can also do dragging and dropping from within an application to another so for example you could open and see here like a Wikipedia page right you can start an email and then you can select like a hyperlink and drag it over like that or select a block of text copy it well let's not dragging and dropping idle but you can do this take a picture you do this a lot of people are talking about files which is kind of a new management system for files on iOS it's where all of your files will go by default on your iPad and you can do drag-and-drop here too this is kind of interesting if you select one that you want to drag into another third-party app and then you just tap others it automatically adds them to your selection you can put them somewhere else basically third party app developers now have access to a set of API is that will let them build an extension into this files app so you can use other cloud storage services over here and then because this is an iPad pro of course people want to know what's new with tencel what can you do with pencil this is kind of interesting so you open notes and you press down on pencil here in between some sort of text you get this block here where you can start writing and let's say I were to write the verge she might have heard of then if I were to close notes and I were to go to spotlight search and look for the verge it might take a while to index but you can see here my note actually just came up so it's doing handwriting recognition now for spotlight search in a way that it didn't do before yeah you see their mind is press down on that that's weird okay obviously this is data still seems to work out so this is the new 10.5 inch iPad pro there's now 12 point 9 inch iPad pro 10.5 inch this goes on sale today which is Monday it starts shipping next week it starts at six hundred and twenty nine dollars for a 64 gigabyte model and then it goes up from there it's also available with cellular service so more information check out the verge com
