Apple Confirms That iPad Pro Lightning Port Is USB 3.0 Compatible

The iPad Pro is the largest iPad Apple have released to date with a 12.9-inch touchscreen.

Apple has worked on many applications in the past to make data transferring easy for its users. The Apple chief told the publication that he had already ditched his laptop computer for the iPad Pro, the report relays. As it now stands, the iPad lineup consists of about 10% of Apple’s revenue, and sales have been in decline since 2014, but the new iPad Pro may reverse it all. A teardown of the iPad Pro and Apple’s confirmation to ARS Technica suggests that the tablet has a USB 3.0 compatible Lightning port.

Still you get what you pay for… Oh.

The iPad Pro isn’t a normal tablet.

The Microsoft Surface Book was announced last month and has been generally positively reviewed. Cook believes this isn’t what Apple’s customers may be looking for. The iPad Pro charges the keyboard and powers it, so there’s no need for chargers or Bluetooth pairing.

Detchables like the iPad Pro are gaining ground on regular tablets.

Microsoft may have melded the tablet and laptop together into one device, but Apple has no plans to do likewise, according to CEO Tim Cook.

So, the new iPad Pro comes with a 12.9-inch diagonal display, which means that is bigger than both the display found on Apple’s 12-inch MacBook and the one on Microsoft’s Surface Pro 4. However, to many tech experts, the Surface Book remains an ultimate product even if it isn’t a flawless device. The carrier will also offer accessories like the Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard for $99 and $169 respectively. “Yes, the iPad Pro is a replacement for a notebook or a desktop for many, many people”. So far, we don’t understand how he came to such a conclusion, and the CEO didn’t stop to elaborate on his reasoning.
