Yeah dude I got the big USB C wall plug and a longer USB C to lightning cable and my 12.9 pro charges faster my iPad mini or iPhone SE it charges so fast, I love it.

Also, I am a huge huge huge fan of the Smart Keyboard.

Which one did you get? I'm down for this if it really is a lot faster.

I bought 2x of the 29W and I keep one plugged in under the desk and one in my backpack. Very good purchase but it gets on my nerves these aren't the ones Apple includes. Same with iPhone+ Series.

The iPhone plus has never come with the charger that would charge it faster. They always skimp on chargers

Yeah a lot of that just isn't true, at least anymore. Office has full Dropbox and iCloud integration. So does final draft, and my niche email client, protonmail.

I prefer Dropbox to iCloud for my documents folder but try stuff out and see what you like. I basically tested different stuff for a month and settled on what worked best for me.

Splitscreening is so dope and useful.

That's why you need to get the 29W adapter. Congrats on graduating and getting a great device. Smart Keyboard with the other grad money!

I just sold my old big pro and pre-ordered the new big one with 256gb. I can't wait. I'm thinking they are going to wait another year and a half before refreshing this one so it's nice to get in the ground floor. I actually use the pencil so I will notice the difference with the new screen. Worth it.

Yo how much you get

There will just be less of a market next year for a two year old machine and you wont get as much money. That's how I'm looking at it, at least.

Mine is 12.9 with cellular, 256gig and AppleCare (untouched) but I don't know what to expect. I'd be happy with $700.

Like I said, I didn't use any space so if I do flip it I plan on getting the least storage (or maybe middle tier) and no cellular, since in the year I've had the device I've never used it. I had thought maybe I'd get in a situation where popping my SIM card out my phone and into the ipad would happen but my tmo hot spot from my phone has mad data and the situation never arose.

I know about that stuff but I mean like day to day, hands on difference. I am pretty much decided to upgrade just in terms of the flip value factor, but want to know if I should expect to see a difference in real world use.

Gotta say, the one thing that bugs me on my iPad Pro 12.9 is that this little grey bar appears at the bottom with shortcuts...that I never use...and it often blocks actual things in apps that I need. Like right now I'm split screening with awful app taking up 3/4 and Messenger taking up 1/4 and the shortcut thing is cover-- OK, actually I guess it just pushes the apps up but still I dont need it and it's a pain to to hide it because every time you type it comes back.

I really can't stand split screening/multitasking now on my iPad Pro. Dragging feels weird to me in general now. Especially on my SE, I am now garbage at rearranging icons.

OK on the pro when I'm in an app and then I swipe up the dock, drag another app to float over it, how do I get rid of that floating app when I'm down with it?
