After a long wait, tech giant Apple announced the release of the latest iPad and iPhone, the all new 9.7-inch iPad Pro and the new iPhone SE.

The iPad has starting price of NZ$1,049, while the new iPhone has a starting price tag of $749. Both will be available to order March 24.

"iPad Pro is a new generation of iPad that is indispensable and immersive, enabling people to be more productive and more creative. It's incredibly fast, extremely portable, and completely natural to use with your fingers, Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard. And now it comes in two sizes," comments Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing.

"iPhone SE is an exciting new idea — we started with a beloved, iconic design and reinvented it from the inside out. The result is the most beautiful and powerful phone with a 4-inch display in the world," he says.
