Apple's newest iPad Pro (http://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ipad-pro/), the 9.7-inch model, made its way into the hands of customers on March 31, and **w that a day has passed, many people who purchased the powerful little tablet have shared their thoughts on the device on our forums.

Reviews (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/03/28/ipad-pro-9-7-inch-review-roundup/) and impressions (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/03/21/iphone-se-9-7-inch-ipad-first-impressions/) from media sites came out earlier this month, but there are always new details and small tidbits of information that come out when products see a wide release. First impressions from actual Apple consumers can also be valuable for those considering a purchase, so we've gathered up some of the details MacRumors readers have shared about the 9.7-inch iPad Pro.
A thread querying users (http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/how-happy-are-you-with-your-new-9-7-ipad-pro.1964991/) about their happiness level with the new iPad Pro suggests opinions on the device are largely positive. More than half of respondents said the device is "amazing" or a "great upgrade." While some are upgrading from an iPad Air 2 (http://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ipad/) or earlier, there are buyers who traded their 12.9-inch iPad Pros for the smaller models. MacRumors reader Traverse (http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/how-happy-are-you-with-your-new-9-7-ipad-pro.1964991/page-3#post-22748475) outlined a long list of positives about his iPad Pro, highlighting the speed improvements over the iPad Air 2.

I had to switch to my MacBook Pro (http://www.macrumors.com/roundup/macbook-pro/)/iPhone every few minutes during the setup process of my new iPad Pro to get two-factor authentication codes, and holy cow is it a major difference.
