What's going on everybody, Ian here for Cult of Mac and this is Apple's brand new 12.9
0:10
inch iPad Pro, complete with Apple Pencil and smart keyboard folio. Now this is the most drastic change to the iPad since its original introduction in 2010
0:23
and it's also probably the product I'm most excited to unbox from Apple in a very long time
0:29
I'm really looking forward to this iPad. So without further ado, let's jump into it
0:35
For those that are curious, I picked up the 64 gigabyte model because all of my files
0:39
are stored in the cloud and I opted for Wi-Fi only instead of the cellular because I always
0:44
have my phone with me and having the ability to connect to the iPad with personal hotspot
0:49
is usually more than enough on the off chance that I need to get something really desperately
0:53
on my iPad when I'm on the go
1:21
Starting down inside the box, we have the iPad itself, which we'll get to in just a minute
1:30
Below that, all the mandatory paperwork, quick start guide, Apple stickers, you know, the usual
1:43
Under that, we have the new 18 watt USB-C charging block, a very welcome change for
1:47
the iPad getting a little more power in its charger. Next to that, a USB-C to USB-C charging cable because hashtag USB-C life
2:02
There's no USB-A port on the cable. There's no headphones in the box, which makes sense
2:06
The iPad has never come with headphones in the box and there's also no USB-C to headphone
2:11
adapter since this iPad has lost the headphone jack. Apple's really going all in on their push for wireless audio with AirPods and Beats
2:20
but they're also offering plenty of routes into Dongletown while they're at it
2:26
Now on to the main event. Now, while that gets ready, let's take a look at the pencil and the smart keyboard
2:57
So, the pencil is just as you'd expect
3:16
Simple packaging with some paperwork here on top and the pencil laid down inside
3:36
Attaching the pencil to the iPad is done, I believe, like this
3:43
That's really satisfying, actually. Now I'll move on to the smart keyboard
3:51
Once again, the packaging is really simple. We'll just get it cut open here
4:06
And we'll get the box open, eventually. Okay, there we go
4:21
Alright, so this smart keyboard feels pretty solid. The keys have this weird texture to them
4:35
The smart keyboard, much like the pencil, attaches to the iPad magnetically using some
4:41
selection of the 102 magnets inside the device. The keyboard itself is fabric covered, which feels decent to the touch right now, but I'll
4:52
have more in-depth feelings in my full review, eventually. So yeah, that's it
4:57
That's everything in the box. That's the iPad Pro, the new Apple Pencil 2, and the new smart keyboard folio for the
5:04
iPad Pro 12.9. Full review will be coming in about a week, and if you have any questions you want me
