2018 iPad Pro

[Azores]

For those haven’t bought their iPad pros yet, the AppleCare+ covers the Apple Pencil as well, but the pencil must be bought together with the iPad Pro. I was told must be same invoice. I bought them separately due no stock and even though highlighted, they say no choice, it’s by third party insurer terms.

This is correct. (In the end I bought the Apple Pencil Gen 2 and IPP and Applecare+ online from the Apple Store together). Smart Keyboard Folio is not covered under AppleCare so can buy later. Is there stock anywhere for the 12.9 inch keyboard? Online states end of the month - but it said the same thing for the IPP 12.9 inch two days ago, then suddenly, it was in stock for same day collection.

I'm still waiting for the delivery of my 12.9" ordered during the 11.11 sale. Courts called to say that there is no stock and likely delivery can only be made next week. Did you collect yours at the store?

Ordered during the 11.11 sale too and chose to collect from the store.

Got mine from best Denki wth Apple care. No issue. Received the AppleCare Proof of Coverage email

Apple just called me. Can purchase after 24 hours

They better not go down that route. Either stick with the current 4:3 or go to 3:2.

Why is 4:3 or 3:2 better when the android folks are moving to 16:9

Do you guys purchase applecare for ipad pro?
For me, I will purchase for my mac & not for iphone.

Cos, mac prone to have a problem (graphics, hdd, in-built speaker, monitor) while my iphone not problem at all.
Never had an ipad before, so not sure what kind of problem ipad users always encounter.

App Store and search for watsapp. Will show messenger for watsapp. Install and launch will have a qr code.
Need to go to watsapp on phone and go to settings page and look for web watsapp. Then use phone to take scan on iPad watsapp messenger qr code. Then settled.

This is a waste, to be honest. Apps like this are just web browser containers.

Just go to web.whatsapp.com (request desktop site) and you get the same functionality.

16:9 is only good for watching videos. For productivity, 4:3 (iPads) or 3:2 (Surface) is better.

Agree on the productivity screen ratio.

Is it possible to get Apple Education Discount with any of the authorised resellers?

 

[krionX]

I got my unit from courts. For some reason, I am unable to purchase AppleCare online. Keep showing me not eligible. Anyone fast the same problem?

Just schedule a call appointnment with Apple Support. They will enable it for you.

Even yearly upgrade is worth it. Can always call in to cancel and Apple will refund the AppleCare+ remaining value.

Nope. Only direct from Apple store or online.

Confirmed. I ordered a pencil last Sat morning and iPad with Applecare+ later in the day for collection (2 invoices). Was told to return my ipad and pencil, ask for refund, and then order again under the same invoice. But then means got to wait another 2 weeks because there’s no stock of ipad.
