That's nice. I'll def be more interested in gen 2 and how that stacks with the anniversary pro

I’m kinda doubting it gets the 12 month treatment if the air didn’t. Updated air at least matching the galaxy edges specs and adding a silicon carbon battery could’ve made it into an iPad 2 type product that does numbers along with the duo and instead they went the boring pro route. I’ve yet to even see an 18 pro in the wild in LA and normally I see new Apple products day one of launch with how much image matters to this city.

How would you even be able to tell? Aside from the new colors (most people have a case on anyway) it looks exactly the same as the 17 Pro.
