Apple iPad Pro release date: Device could be out Nov. 13 instead of Nov. 11

A few days back, it was reported that the Apple iPad Pro will up for grabs on Nov. 11. But there's new word that the monstrous tablet will actually be released on Nov. 13 instead, which, thankfully for interested buyers, isn't far off from the previous speculation.

This is after online retailer Sam's Club put the giant device on pre-order availability. The listing dedicated to the tablet states that shipping of the units will start on the said date. As of right now, though, the iPad Pro is already sold out at the retailer.

Sam's Club offers both 32-GB and 128-GB configurations (Wi-Fi only) of the device. It also gave users space gray, silver and gold for color options. The unit with the smaller memory offering costs $787 while users will have to shell out $937 to get four times the space offered by the standard model.

Interestingly, another retailer in the form of MacMall has also opened the iPad Pro for pre-order. It offers the 128-GB Wi-Fi only version of the tablet that comes with the three aforementioned color options with a $937 price tag. The Wi-Fi + Cellular version of the 128-GB unit is priced at $1,067.

Users can also pre-order the accessories for the device including the Apple Pencil for $99 and the Smart Keyboard for $169. The retailer promises to ship "mid November" or nine days after, which means that buyers will likely get their hands on their iPad Pro from MacMall by Nov. 15.

The Apple iPad Pro was introduced in September with the new iPhone 6s and 6s Plus and an improved version of the Apple TV. It has a 12.9-inch display and a fingerprint sensor.

The beasty slab also sports an 8-MP rear-facing shooter and a 1.2-MP front-facing camera. It has an Apple A9X for a processor with all its versions integrated with 4 GB of RAM. It is touted to last 10 hours.
