IDC: iPad Pro outsells entire Microsoft Surface line over the holidays

While Apple's iPad sales have been on a downswing for some time that hasn't stopped the iPad Pro from outselling Microsoft's entire Surface line over the holidays. "We believe Apple sold just over two million iPad Pros while Microsoft sold around 1.6 million Surface devices, a majority of which were Surface Pro and not the more affordable Surface 3," IDC research director Jean Philippe Bouchard said in a release. 

The iPad Pro is Apple's largest iPad at 12.9-inches, it features the most powerful A9X processor and has a built-in accessory port that can power Smart Keyboard accessories. The iPad Pro also accepts input from the Apple Pencil, which makes it a great device for artists, designers and businesses requiring accurate signatures input.
