The new features are spectacular! I recently moved from an iPad Air to the iPad Pro 11 in. From the facial ID to the ability to lock notes to the awesome camera, this is a sure upgrade!
Wasn’t Impressed with the camera. Similar to my iPad mini I should have just stuck with the mini.

Great drawing tablet alternative, and very pretty.

To keep it relatively (not at all) short and sweet:
Coming from an Android user, the interface is slick at the expense of customization, and a less forgiving 3rd party app system. But I love being able to use this as a mobile drawing tablet and whole heartedly recommend getting the Apple Pen/Procreate if you're an illustrator, even at 11". I also recommend getting a screen cover, as your paws WILL leave prints no matter how clean you are. You will have problems with pen usage if not. (Side note: very fragile, recommend a cover/soft pouch at the very least.)
It runs great, and I have yet to experience any issues with video or sound. No problems with latency unlike other brands. I haven't experimented with newer iTunes but even that is a big step up from not having any kind of default music player on other phones/tablets. You won't be able to connect to the traditional itunes program on PC without your PC having a USB-C port, which mine doesn't; so if you're interested in having a giant iPod and connecting it to your computer for sorting then check that out first. You may need an adapter.
There's also no headphone jack. That goes without saying, but for people who just can't let go of wired earbuds then that will be another adapter you'll need. If you already use bluetooth headphones then it won't be a big deal, connected to a pen or not. No problems having to accessories connected via bluetooth.
Battery consumption is not amazing. This really depends on how you'll be using it, and for me it's a little on the faster side for drainage. It's not clear whether pens consume battery faster than without them, but obviously they will if you have them attached to each other. Otherwise, it's a decent charge time, and most using it for games or reading occasionally probably won't need to worry.
Pros: Lightweight Easy to use Fast UI pleasing, smooth Fun features Good response time with Pen Good camera
Cons: Fragile Adapters necessary for those with certain devices Customization restricted Messaging app confusing---could be clearer on how to activate usage, on Apple AND ATT's end
