Wah I cant. Overseas now and will be back around 8pm+. The earliest would be to chong to the courts that I will be picking up the ipp.

Wah lazada now then give $110 voucher. If I know, I would have bought from there instead as can get shopback and lazada rebates.

I had the same experience, the keyboard came off quite easily.

Then I realized the keyboard was not fully attached to the back of the IPP, they had this security lock/cable (0.5-1 cm thickness) in between the back of the IPP and keyboard

The magnet is pretty strong tbh. You need a bit of strength to remove the folio. You can literally stick the iPad Pro to the fridge and it won’t fall off.

Ya. When the iPad is docked to the keyboard, u need an amount of strength to detach the iPad from the docked position.
Compare with prehistoric days where the iPad is just resting on those iPad covers in dock which just fell off when the iPad is tipped over.
Current hold like a rock.

Maybe weak magnets are due to manufacturing defects for the first batch. I believe they did a lot of extensive test before launch. Magnets should be quite solid

I applaud apple for setting up their flagship store. Stocks are healthy unlike courts, lazada. Got discount but no stock. Lol! Now no chance to flip liao. Great for all “real” consumers

Lol! Lazada no stock. Interesting the stock level is only 1, 2 etc because 11.11. I think this is more like a marketing gimmick

I choose iPad over MacBook is due to
1) Photoediting softwares that are powerfully becoming available to iPad.
2) Feels more comfortable editing photos with a pencil than a mouse.
3) can do photo editing on iPad lying in bed and on a table but MacBook u can only a table.

For my I choose the bigger iPad over MacBook is all becos of photoediting at a more relaxed posture.
Like I go to Some coffee joints locally or overseas, I can just find a seat and start working on the pics I taken. With MacBook, u need to find a table.
And for those who suka post Instagram and fb, current iPad is really very portable,ergonomics and powerful and a 11” will do.

care to share your workflow on how you transfer photos? are u using the 3rd party camera app to download the photos from the camera? (i.e. Fuji)

curious as prev gen, i tried but its inconvenient for me to use icloud.
