Why You Shouldn't Buy An IPad Pro?
Apple's event this September was met with much fan hype as usual and a little laughter at the announcement of Apple Pencil I might add. The newly announced products include IPhone 6s, 6s Plus, IPad Mini 4, IPad Pro and a new version of Apple TV.
But the question arises, What's so fancy about the IPad Pro that's priced at $799?The Answer in simple terms: Absolutely nothing.
Let's say for example you really need a laptop killer then you may perhaps look on going to the IPad Pro but what's there in IPad 4 that's not in Mini or Air except for the Apple Pencil of course.
While Apple may have put a lot of firepower in the IPad Pro with the A9X Cyclone processor but the question then again arises that is it enough to beat the Intel workhouse processors.

I am going to compare the IPad Pro with a fairly mid-level Lenovo Z50. It contains an energy efficient Dual Core i7-4510U with 8 GB RAM and 1 TB HDD. The only thing that some users will complain is the missing dedicated GPU but let's take this laptop for corporate sector comparison. Let's say you are a journo or a researcher or an engineer, You need Microsoft Office and a fast keyboard with tactile feedback for quick computing. The latter keyboard part comes with an extra cost at your expensive. Furthermore you need a lot Hard disk space to store your data. The basic IPad has just 32 GB while the Lenovo houses a ginormous 1 TB HDD. If that's not reason enough, compare the prices of both devices. Lenovo Z50 is just $635, more than a hundred dollars less than the IPad Pro.
If you compare it with any other Tablet then the best competitor is the IPad Mini 4 itself containing almost everything that is in it's bigger sibling and for an even lesser price.
These are pretty much the reasons why I think you shouldn't spend your hard earned money on the IPad Pro. What about you? Do you think otherwise? Drop us a note in the comments.
