Bummer that it's only compatible with the first-generation Apple Pencil and not second-generation Pencil. What's their rationale?

I hope they&#x27;re retaining the 4:3 aspect ratio. Samsung IMO shot themselves in the foot by switching back to 16:10 for their recent tablets after going with 4:3 for the Tab S3.<p>16:10 on portrait is far too tall and narrow to use comfortably, while in landscape it&#x27;s far too wide. 4:3 has a nice balance, and is shaped like a piece of paper, which is extremely useful when reading PDFs. Websites also render in their desktop view in portrait, whereas you get a weird semi-mobile view in 16:10 on portrait due to the breakpoints that have been set on most sites&#x27; CSS.

I have the iPad Air 2, released in 2014 and looks identical to the new iPad released today. It has the latest OS updates and it&#x27;s never had any performance issues. Why would someone upgrade from this 5 year old device?

Still waiting for xcode for iPad. If iPads are to be taken seriously as a laptop replacement we have to be able to make software with them. I&#x27;m confident Apple will eventually get there though.

I can&#x27;t believe Apple made an dense and ugly slide like this: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;boygeniusreport.files.wordpress.com&#x2F;2019&#x2F;09&#x2F;apple-iphone-11-event-13.jpg?quality=98&amp;strip=all&amp;w=834" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;boygeniusreport.files.wordpress.com&#x2F;2019&#x2F;09&#x2F;apple-ip...</a>

It has the A10 bionic chip(which is 3 years old), Same as last yeras model. It is very similar to iPad 6th gen. They should have atleat put A11.

Am thinking about picking one of these up for my daughter, 32GB seems a bit stingy though, will that be enough for apps and games?

Meh?<p>I dont understand why there are incremental updates to these devices every year. It doesn&#x27;t seem like a big deal to me. Do it every two or three years and it&#x27;ll probably end up being better products anyway.

I still use first gen iPad for occasional Netflix and it&#x27;s working just fine. Hopefully Netflix won&#x27;t drop the support for older clients like YouTube did.

I don’t understand the large screen bezels on non-pro versions of the iPad in late 2019. Once they release a cheap iPad without large bezels, I’ll get one.
