The iPad Pro is finally available, with Apple hoping the big-screened device can boost faltering sales of its iPad line-up, tempting those with their sights set on the likes of the Surface Pro 4 and Galaxy Note Pro. the first thing you notice about the iPad Pro is its sheer size. It's the largest tablet we've used for a long time and it comes with a 12.9-inch display in the middle. That's a 2,732 x 2,048 resolution capable of showing 5.6 million pixels. 

It is really cool to play 4K video on iPad Pro's 12-inch display, totally a paradise for movie video playback.
