    Would you have felt the same had they kept the 16GB model? Would you purchase a 16GB iPad Pro?

    Not too keen on them dropping 64gb as an option on the iPad Pro. I'd like one, but I absolutely don't need 128gb. 32gb is a little bit low.

    No wouldn't have gone for a 16GB.

    The thing is iPad upgrade patterns are such that most people with a 64GB Air 2 wouldn't be upgrading anyway. People upgrading this year will have older, probably only 16GB devices. Even people who bought a 64GB Air 1 paid more than they'll pay for a Pro with the same storage.

    We have to wait a month longer.. That always annoyed me.

    Ireland is a small country. Mean nothing to apple from a sales point of view.

    Its interesting where tablets are going. I was waiting last year for the pro to come out. Didnt float my boat and went for a full windows 10 tablet. It has everything I need from a portability point of view. The MBP doesnt leave the house as much now. Give me the same option with OSX and I know where I would be

    Ridiculous pricing on the iPad pro. Taking the piss.

    Apple going from a "premium" brand to a gouging brand slowly but surely.

    Not a hope of me paying that sort of money for an iPad and that's coming from someone who has had one since its original launch in the States.

    I have starting falling out of love with Apple over the last 12 months or so and this continues the trend.

    Sooner or later people will look elsewhere IMO.

    Very true, I've always had an iPad have the Air 2 but at I won't be up grading with those prices they really take the piss when it comes to the price of memory.

    I had Ipad 1 / 3 and Air gen1. After seeing the iPad pro launch last year jumped the gun and got a Surface Pro 4 .. Thankfully after today's announcements I know I made the right decision as it does replace my MacBook Air and IPad.

    9.3 is out. Installed on iPad and iPhone without issue.

    The mini is fine. I mean they cover their bases on the iPad. And they are explicitly calling this a pro, it is not a consumer device.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭whippet


    Fundamentally the iPad hasn't evolved in any great shape since its introduction. Apple sticking to the mantra that a desktop OS does not belong on a tablet is proven to be incorrect.

    When OS X wasn't on the iPad Pro I ended a 15 year loyalty to the brand.

    Having a notebook, tablet and smartphone isn't practical for most users and the piggy in the middle is the one which will be dumped unless it can merge with one of the notebook or phone.

    I am updating now, but it should be in control centre.

    It's under Display and Brightness

    Yah I checked, no sign of it ?

    It's not an icon. It's just a setting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭Backpack20


    Can't find it

    Are you sure the update went through alright? It's right there between the 'Auto Brightness' and 'Text Size' in the Display and Brightness section under Settings.

    So iOS 9.3 is out.
    Is this only available OTA? No update showing when connected to computer thru iTunes.
    The update is showing up on my phone though. Will it be available to update via iTunes at all?

    After the update it asked about some iCloud thing and I said no .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 89 ✭✭Backpack20


    It says software is updated to iOS 9.3

    Hmmm while it's kinda cool, I can't see myself using Night Shift.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,762 ✭✭✭✭Inquitus


    Not much to speak about here, highly underwhelming, but a 4" iPhone with updated internals will sell well though you'd think, there's defo a section of society not enamoured with Gigantiphones.

    It'll be ok for checking an email or a quick news headline or something but I don't think I'll be watching video or surfing the net with it on

    I'm one of them. I'm sticking with my 5S for a while as it's good enough for what I need to do but I find the 6S too big. I'd find it a bit weird having it strapped to my arm on a run.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,499 ✭✭✭✭Caoimhgh1n


    Swip up from the bottom of the display, on an iPhone it is the middle icon and on an iPad it is on the middle icon on the bottom right.

    Then I'm out of ideas sorry. There's definitely nothing in the D&B?
