The new iPad and iPad Pro models are now available for purchase at select Apple Store retail locations.
Beginning on Wednesday, Apple’s new 11-inch iPad Pro, 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and redesigned 10.9-inch iPad are available for pickup at select Apple Stores around the world, with no pre-order required. The tablets are available in a range of sizes, colors, and storage capacity options, and are available at Apple Store locations throughout the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and other countries.
To order a product with Apple Store pickup, add the product to your bag on Apple.com or in the Apple Store app, proceed to checkout, select the “I’ll pick it up” option, enter your ZIP or postal code, choose an available Apple Store location, select a pickup date, and select a 15-minute check-in window. Payment is completed online, and a valid government-issued photo ID and the order number may be required upon pickup.
Supplies may be limited given local demand and purchase patterns. Also, walk-in customers may be placed into a separate queue with lower priority upon arrival to the store, so arranging a pickup is recommended.
The new iPad Pro models received a minor spec bump, with new features including the M2 chip, Wi-Fi 6E support, new hover functionality for the Apple Pencil, ProRes video recording capability, Smart HDR 4, and Bluetooth 5.3. In the U.S., pricing continues to start at $799 for the 11-inch model and at $1,099 for the 12.9-inch model.
The 10th-generation iPad has been redesigned and features a larger 10.9-inch display with slimmer bezels, flat edges, the A14 Bionic chip, a USB-C port, a Touch ID power button, a landscape-positioned FaceTime camera, 5G support on cellular models, Wi-Fi 6, new color options, and support for a new two-piece Magic Keyboard Folio accessory. Retail prices for the 10th-generation iPad begin at $449 in the U.S., while the ninth-generation 10.2-inch iPad remains available for $329.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
