Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:23:49 PM"New A9X chip. Third-generation 64-bit chip. 2X memory bandwidth of previous."
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:23:58 PM1.8X faster than the A8X it replaces. This is desktop class performance
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:24:01 PM(bet Intel loves that)
-
James Martin 9/9/2015 5:24:05 PM
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:24:13 PMA9X: 2x faster storage. 1.8x faster than A8X on iPad Air 2. "desktop class performance." So does that mean crossover apps?
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:24:17 PM"Our chip team is just on fire. Over the last five years grown performance in iPad 22 fold for CPU tasks."
-
James Martin 9/9/2015 5:24:27 PM

Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:24:30 PMDouble graphics over A8X. Over last years, graphics performance has gone up 360X.

-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:24:47 PM"You combine that fast hardware with great software in iOS 9 ... and you get incredible performance."
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:24:49 PMOnce again, graphics doubling. So, very curious how this matches against Core M on MacBook
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:24:56 PM"It is faster than 80% of the portable PCs that shipped in the last 12 months."
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:25:03 PMYep, Intel is REALLY going to love that
-
James Martin 9/9/2015 5:25:10 PM
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:25:20 PMSorry, faster than 90% not 80% (thought he said 80 but screen said 90%)
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:25:35 PMReally claiming elite graphics on this vs other PCs (better graphics than 90% of portable PCs sold?)
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:25:37 PM"It's going to enable new classes of applications for iPad. This is AutoCad 360 from AutoDesk."
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:25:41 PM90 for graphics
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:25:59 PM10-hour battery life
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:26:10 PM10 hour battery life, once again (always been the battery goal for iPad, more or less)
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:26:17 PM"We thought this display deserves a great soundsystem. For the first time ever, we have a four-speaker audio system."
-
James Martin 9/9/2015 5:26:20 PM
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:26:25 PM"Automatically balances the left and right depending on how you're holding the iPad."
-
James Martin 9/9/2015 5:26:36 PM
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:26:36 PM"It puts off 3X the audio volume of the iPad Air 2."
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:26:45 PMFour speakers, balancing sound and frequencies, 3x volume of iPad Air 2. That's good because iPad Air 2 speakers really weren't good.
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:26:53 PM"iPad Pro is 6.9mm thick. iPad Air is 6.1"
-
James Martin 9/9/2015 5:27:08 PM
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:27:20 PM1.57 pounds, 6.9 mm thick. comparing to original iPad, which had similar weight.
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:27:22 PM"What about the weight of it. Let's bring in the original first iPad. Both around 1.5 pounds." iPad Pro is 1.57 pounds, first iPad was 1.54 pounds
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:27:29 PM"This is an amazing iPad, but the story doesn't stop there."
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:27:37 PM"Let's go back to that software keyboard. It's a great keyboard."
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:27:48 PMThat's not a one-hander. But a 12.9-inch iPad probably wasn't going to be anyway.
-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:27:54 PMA new keyboard!
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:27:54 PM"Because we're enabling applications not possible before in an iPad, sometimes you like the convenience of a physical keyboard."
-
James Martin 9/9/2015 5:27:59 PM
-
Shara Tibken 9/9/2015 5:28:02 PMAccessory just for iPad Pro, the Smart Keyboard

-
Scott Stein 9/9/2015 5:28:42 PMUnfolds, like smart cover. Woven fabric, unfolds, physical keyboard underneath. Keys use similar mechanisms to new MacBook.
