Hello everyone, I'm here to write original works again, please support more~

At the end of October, Apple will hold another press conference to continue to harvest users' wallets. Although I was a little disappointed without AirPods2, I didn’t expect that the new iPad Pro update would change so much, and I suddenly felt like I was caught in the wretch. September and October are the season for purchasing Apple devices every year. I have been struggling to upgrade the iPhone X or iPad Pro 10.5 at hand. In this way, it must be the new iPad Pro and apple pencil that can bring more freshness~

Let me introduce myself first. The post is an IT man who is moving bricks in Shenzhen. This post will tell you about my experience of using iPad Pro and compare the new and old products.

1. Purchase method

In fact, the poster graduated from university in June last year. In early June last year, Apple released iPad Pro 10.5. At that time, the poster only had an iPad mini2 in his hand. I really want to buy a Pro. Unexpectedly, the iPad Pro with a starting price of 5188 RMB was reduced to 4488 when it was 618. It also supports 12 interest-free installments. I remember that day, I was in the messy dormitory, and I didn’t bother to pack my luggage. I kept refreshing the inventory of iPad Pro. Finally, I refreshed a deep space gray and placed an order decisively! so I spent 4688 RMB to become an iPad Pro player~

Then this year my cousin went to work in Apple, with an employee discount of 15% off! I bought MBP in July and asked him if I could use the discount after the new iPad Pro was released. He said he could, so he placed an order. The price of the Hong Kong Bank starts at HK$6,399, and then the exchange rate discount is equivalent to a 75% discount. The second generation of apple pencil is also to be bought. I wanted to engrave a word, but found that the Hong Kong official website does not engrave the simplified Chinese characters "Sui" (my brother said that his employees can't even engrave Chinese on the web page), so he can only buy it on the mainland official website...999*0.85=849RMB. so iPad Pro 11 plus pen is about 5700RMB.

Finally received

on the 21st. Here I have to complain about Apple's pricing strategy, which is getting more and more expensive. Previously, the price of the new iPhone 3 was stable at RMB5288, and the price of the new iPad was stable at RMB3688. Now it is rising rapidly every year, and the starting price of the iPad Pro 11 is RMB6499!

In order to get some blood, I put the old iPad Pro at hand and prepared to sell it to my classmates, and agreed to 3500RMB. If you count this way, it would be worth it to spend more than 2,000 points to get the new iPad Pro, which I think is quite worth it.

2. Why buy iPad Pro?

正视 iPad Pro is because I read a lot of painting tutorials online, fantasizing that I have such advanced equipment, can draw beautiful works, and I also spend money to buy software... Later I found out that I was thinking too much. Until the mobile game Chicken Eating was launched at the beginning of this year, I was surprised to find that iPad Pro is a Chicken Eating Artifact!

Although iPad Pro has higher performance than iPhoneX, it has always been poor for iPad compatibility, and it is very stuttering and has huge heat. Later I forgot what month it was, and it became extremely smooth after I updated the chicken. So I used the iPad Pro to eat chicken...

gray was popular last year, so I must have bought gray when I bought iPad Pro. However, I think gray is not good-looking, and I still like the classic silver, so I bought the apple watch, iPhoneX, and MBP in silver, and the iPad Pro 11 is no exception. I didn't have any worries when choosing capacity. I must be the beggar version (because of poverty), and I won't download a lot of videos, music, etc.

As for that keyboard, I really want to buy it to show off, but it is too expensive... When it comes to mobile office needs, I don’t have it either, and I have almost never traveled. I need to remember some inspiration occasionally, and I use my iPhone's memos and recorder to suffice. I feel that I am not the target user of iPad Pro, but I can’t help but buy it because of its appearance. And I think the appearance of iPad Pro this time should not change in the next two generations -

so the post is proved: I will never buy iPad Pro next year! Save money!

3. Unboxing appearance display

iPad Pro was sent to a friend’s house in Hong Kong. He brought it to me, so he directly removed it and activated it.Apple pencil was sent directly to me by Apple. Let me give you a brief look at the unboxing. I like the pleasure of Apple devices being unboxed and activated.

Hurry to compare the new and old iPad Pros, I know everyone is waiting urgently! The new iPad Pro is very square, and this square visual effect is better than the previous generation of arc design.

You can recall iPhone5 and iPhone6. The "leucorrhea" on the arc edge and back of iPhone6 ​​were almost sprayed to death back then, but Apple persisted in this design for several years because it felt better.

Nut Pro launch conference

, and Apple's parent company "Haoke", the Nut Pro launched that year, has a 6-inch screen with a very right-angle body design, which looks pretty good, giving itself a very awesome slogan: a sharp outlier in the era of smooth and preaching. As a result... I was scolded to death with a very bad touch. I was such an outlier (I went to see the press conference and bought one, and I felt so stupid).

Nut Pro

So how does the design of the new iPad Pro feel? I usually hold the screen horizontally and play with chickens. I feel that the circular arc body of the iPad Pro 10.5 is very comfortable to hold in my hands, and the iPad Pro 11 is a little uncomfortable to hold in my hands. I even feel that it is thicker and heavier. When checking the parameters on the official website, the thickness has been reduced by 0.2mm and the weight has been reduced by 9 grams, which is also quite impressive. I agree with the design of the iPad Pro 11, which is the best-looking iPad in my eyes so far, and it feels a little worse and completely acceptable.

iPad Pro 11 has a larger area, where is it bigger? We know that the screen resolution of iPad has always been 4:3. Compared with 10.5, the screen width of iPad Pro 11 has not changed (all 1668 pixels), but the length has become longer (from 2224 pixels to 2388). At this time, the diagonal is measured again, the size has changed from 10.5 to 11, and the screen ratio is close to 3:2. Then the borders outside the screen narrowed their foreheads and widened their sides, which became the current full-screen feeling.

iPad Pro 11 can display more content

However, when picking up the device, your thumb often blocks the Face ID. Although there is a prompt, it is far less convenient than unlocking the home button of the previous generation iPad Pro. Moreover, without the home button, the previous operation of clicking back to the desktop and double-clicking to cut multi-tasks all rely on sliding up the screen to achieve this. It is not only inconvenient, but also not accurate enough. So will Apple consider screen fingerprint recognition?

4. Function experience

Just now, I complained that when I picked up the device, my thumb was easy to block the Face ID, but just talking about this Face ID is still very good. The official website does not specifically introduce it, but compared to iPhoneX, it recognizes much faster and supports more angles. Sometimes I sit in my seat and look at it, feeling that it is impossible for it to recognize a human face, but it unlocks with just a stroke. More importantly, it supports landscape unlocking, which is not supported by iPhone Xs MAX.

Right, with Face ID, iPad Pro can also take selfies in portrait mode, and you can also pinch your face, take very popular anime avatars on Douyin ~

Then talk about the screen, the official said Liquid retina display, ProMotion adaptive refresh technology, etc., I can't see it with the naked eye, anyway, the screen is really good. Compared to 10.5 inches, my 11 inches screen is warmer (the original color display is turned on), and the shadows when switching screens are smaller (it may also be an illusion). One problem I want to complain about is that there is a small piece under the screen that is uneven brighter than the surroundings. I think it is a quality problem (it took a long time to find out).

is not obvious when taken, but it is quite obvious when you hold it in your hand.

has something to complain about. The iPad Pro's screen has poor anti-glue stain ability. After using it for a while, the screen is greasy and greasy, and the experience is very unpleasant. Hope Apple can solve it!

Then say taking photos, this is another point of complaint on the new iPad Pro.Because from the perspective of parameters, the new iPad Pro is a 5-chip lens without optical anti-shake ; while the old iPad Pro is a 6-chip lens with optical anti-shake. Why is this? If you look at the two devices a little, it is actually easy to find that the old model has a wide forehead and the lens module can be placed completely in the 6.1mm body. The new model has a narrower forehead and the lens module needs to be placed behind the screen, so the volume must be reduced. The lenses of both generations of iPad Pro are more prominent. If the new iPad Pro wants to maintain the original parameters, the lenses will be more prominent, which is too ugly.

I took a few photos outdoors, let's take a look at the comparison:

The best-looking iPhone X, and the picture on iPad Pro 11 is a bit white. The second set of samples of

, iPad Pro 11 and iPhone X still automatically turn on HDR, making the picture more transparent, while iPad Pro 10.5 has not rich enough details. The best-looking one is still iPhoneX. The iPad Pro 11's screen is white balance and is green.

Overall, the iPad Pro 11 does not reduce the image quality due to the reduction of lenses. It draws with 10.5 inches, and each has its advantages and disadvantages, but it is not as good as the iPhoneX. In addition, the FOV of iPad Pro 11 is smaller than that of iPad Pro 10.5 and even smaller than that of iPhoneX.

Let’s talk about this A12X processor, which is Apple’s most awesome mobile processor, which Apple itself calls “using a computer-level architecture.” Let’s run a point first. I used Antutu to run 562,999 points, which was the biggest hit. In fact, the GPU part was greatly improved. What's the use of this? It's really useful for me, because I use the old iPad Pro to play with chicken, and when I adjust the frame rate to the maximum, the picture quality can only be smooth; if the picture quality is adjusted to balance, it will be stuck... So I couldn't wait to put a chicken on the new iPad Pro to experience the most awesome picture quality, but I was shocked -

chicken has not yet adapted, it's all big black edges.

I downloaded several commonly used applications

that are not adapted include: Tencent Video HD, Youku HD, bilibiliHD, Taobao HD, NetEase Cloud Music HD, Stimulation Battlefield, etc.

that are adapted include: WeChat, QQ browser, Paper, Procreate, Sketches, etc.

Then I was surprised to find that PS has not adapted...

Because there is a bar under iPad Pro, there are black edges on the top, bottom, left and right. This experience is really bad!

Let’s talk about the interface. iPad Pro 11 uses Type-C interface, which can be said to directly draw a clear line with the previous iPad. All previous iPads actually developed towards the direction of large-screen iPhones, while iPads using Type-C interfaces will develop towards Mac. I wouldn't be surprised if the next generation iPad Pro is equipped with desktop-grade Intel chips.

With this Type-C interface, you can directly use various expansion accessories of MBP, and even connect to the camera. I plugged the camera memory card into the iPad Pro through the adapter, which can be easily browsed and downloaded. So when the poster goes out to shoot, it becomes very convenient to use iPad Pro to review the materials!

You can also use the charger and plug of your Mac, and you finally don’t have to grab it from your iPhone.

But it is really inconvenient to have no 3.5mm interface! It is probably because the body is too thin and I can't do it. Fortunately, you can use AirPods. And I found that there seemed to be 4 mics on the body, and the sound pickup ability was greatly improved.

I almost forgot to say apple pencil, this is the accessory I am most satisfied with. The old apple pencil is really like a pencil, but its problems are inconvenient storage, easy to lose the pen cap, and very difficult to charge... and the new iPad Pro solved these problems all at once.Compared to the plastic shell of the 1st generation pen, I prefer the touch of the 2nd generation skin-like material, and double-clicking the front of the pen can switch the brush tool, which also improves efficiency. In addition, take the pen and click it on the screen to quickly take notes, and I like this interaction very much. Anyway, the apple pencil 2 generation makes me love it! Unfortunately, the price is a bit expensive, RMB999.

Right, the border of the apple pencil that is attached to the iPad Pro is very tight, so don't worry about it falling off.

is so good at hand, it’s time to learn how to draw!

Summary: The only thing that remains unchanged is its name

I think Apple’s official website’s summary of the new iPad Pro is very well-established: the only thing that remains unchanged is its name. New appearance, new full screen, new interface, more powerful performance... The iPad Pro has taken another big step forward in its journey to productivity tools. But I think it is impossible to replace computers at present. After all, no one works just to look at documents and PPTs. No designer only needs PS, so it can only exist as an auxiliary.

For me, the new iPad Pro is used to play with chicken most of the time. It occasionally watches videos and draws, and occasionally goes out to shoot and view materials... So the utilization rate is not particularly high, but it is indispensable to me. After all, I really like chicken eating (although its level is very delicious), and it can achieve the effect of having its own magnification mirror.

According to the official website, the battery life of the new and old models is the same. According to my experience, the battery life is very long. What I want to complain about is the battery life of the AirPods. If you wear it and play with chicken, you will lose power in at most 1 and a half hours. It's really not enough. I hope the next generation will be released soon, especially to solve the problem of short battery life!

Summarize its advantages and disadvantages:

Advantages:

I like the new appearance, I like the full screen very much

New apple pencil is so good

Performance diiao

Disadvantages:

hold the hand feeling poor, it is easy to block Face ID (it doesn't seem to be a better solution)

commonly used apps adapt too few (I think developers adapt very slowly)

lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack (the body is already so thin, long live the understanding)

is too expensive! If the appearance of the next generation remains unchanged, I will definitely not upgrade it!

If you are struggling between buying a computer and buying an iPad Pro, I suggest you buy a computer and don’t fantasize that the iPad Pro can be used for office work as Apple promotes. At least not yet.

For the new iPad Pro, the author did not have an in-depth experience, so let’s talk about it here. If you have anything you want to know, you can leave a message below the post and I will reply seriously. If you think the poster’s post is helpful to you, please give me more rewards. Thank you~
