As promised earlier this week, Apple is now accepting orders for the iPad Pro through both its online store and the Apple Store app. The first orders should be delivered on Friday, November 13 for customers who select one-day shipping. In-store pickup is also available at many Apple retail stores.
The Pro’s two main accessories, the Apple Pencil, and the Smart Keyboard, are showing 3-4 weeks for shipping, and are not currently available for in-store pickup.
Logitech’s CREATE Backlit Keyboard Case for the iPad Pro is available in stores beginning today, however, for $149.95. Apple is advertising the keyboard right alongside the Apple Pencil and its own Smart Keyboard. Logitech’s keyboard was designed with input from Apple and it is the first third-party product to use the device’s Smart Connector port.
The 12.9-inch iPad Pro is the largest table Apple has ever offered, boasting a 12.9-inch Retina display, an enhanced A9X processor, four speakers, 4GB of RAM, and an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera. Pricing begins at $799 for a 32GB Wi-Fi-only model, with a 128GB Wi-Fi-only model going for $949, and a 128GB Wi-Fi+Cellular model carrying a $1,079 price tag. The pro is available in Space Gray, Silver, and Gold.
Customers will also be able to order the device’s two main accessories, the ApplePencil and the Smart Keyboard, alongside the Pro. The pressure-sensitive Pencil stylus will set buyers back an additional $99, while the Smart Keyboard will go for $169.
Apple will also make new, Apple-designed polyurethane iPad Pro Smart Covers available for $59 in charcoal gray and white. New iPad Pro Silicone Cases will be available for $79 in charcoal gray and white.
