Logitech's Slim Combo case completes the iPad Pro

Logitech has accepted the challenge of creating the ideal iPad Pro case accessory. The Logitech Slim Combo iPad Pro case with Backlit Keyboard and Smart connector does a great job of protecting the new iPad Pro, it also offers a slot for the Apple Pencil, a removeable backlit keyboard and an articulating kickstand that gives the iPad Pro a wider range functionality over the slimline Apple iPad Pro keyboard cover.

“In the past, you were bound to a workspace with a PC, and used your tablet for quick messages or entertainment when you weren’t in the office; that’s not the case anymore,” said Michele Hermann, vice president of mobility at Logitech. “To be a pro today, you need the power of the PC, but more easily available whether you're on a train, at the park, in a meeting or wherever you need to be. The Slim Combo unleashes the power of iPad Pro to bring you the future of personal computing; a future that’s easier, faster and more fun.”

Review: Apple iPad Pro 10.5-inch

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

Since it’s inception in 2010, Apple’s iPad seemed destined for lofty goals. It ushered in the ‘Post-PC’ movement, set competitors scrambling to release competing tablets, and appeared at a time when PCs were spiralling on a multi-year decline.

Much like the iPod, the iPad managed to outlast its competition in the consumer space. Android tablets offer notoriously bad experiences, they don’t get updated and run mostly phone apps. The BlackBerry PlayBook, The HP TouchPad, various generations of Galaxy Tabs and even Microsoft’s scrappy Surface tablet could not touch the iPad’s popularity and its sales. 

iPad Pro, which came in 2015, was designed to go beyond content consumption, more powerful processors and graphics make it as powerful as traditional notebooks, multi-touch and Apple Pencil input help make the technology disappear and let users create organically and naturally.

Microsoft outs its ‘smallest Xbox ever’

It’s been dubbed “Project Scorpio” but now it gets an official debut. Microsoft unveiled at E3 its new Xbox One X, the company’s smallest Xbox to date. While it features looks similar to the Xbox One S, it packs in a lot of power in its smaller package. It comes with 6 teraflops of graphical power (which is more than the PS4 Pro’s 4.2 teraflops), a custom GPU engine that runs at 1172MHz (which is a big jump over the Xbox One’s 853MHz and the Sony’s 911MHz on the PS4 Pro), 1TB of storage, and it’ll ship with an Ultra HD Blu-ray drive for 4K entertainment. It also has liquid-cooled vapor-chamber cooling system, which you usually see on high-end PC gaming cards.

It’ll work with all existing Xbox One accessories and will be backwards compatible with Xbox 360 and Xbox One titles. Existing titles are said to get a noticeable performance boost on the Xbox One. Microsoft will use “super sampling” on this console to make the new games look more amazing on 1080p TVs. Microsoft says there will be 22 “console launch exclusives” coming to the Xbox One X, including Forza Motorsport 7 and Crackdown 3. It’ll debut worldwide on November 7^th and will cost CA$599.
