The 2018 iPad Pro is one of the most exciting upgrades of the year. This device looks like it will be a major upgrade from the existing models with almost no bezels and a design that looks similar to the iPhone X. 

You can expect a faster iPad with Face ID that works in portrait or landscape, an edge-to-edge display that does not have a notch and a new magnetic connector for accessories. Some rumors suggest the iPad Pro is getting a USB C port that will allow you to connect to an external display.
