I just updated my iPad Pro 9.7 32 GB. So far everything looks okay. The one weird thing, which I also noticed with my iPad Mini 2 update yesterday, is the storage amounts don't seem to jive at all because they vary between device About menu and iTunes amount shown. The iTunes amounts seem way off IMO, but no surprise there. I think iTunes is a suckfest when it comes to anything but music stuff. I don't use it for music, do maybe it sucks at that too. But it definitely sucks at being a library for all the iPad files.

Here are my results from today's update of my iPad Pro 9.7 32 GB. I show both iOS 9.2 results and iOS 9.3 results on the iPad and in iTunes.

iOS 9.2

27.95 GB Capacity
7.52 GB Available

iOS 9.3

28.56 GB Capacity
8.47 GB Available

iTunes with iOS 9.2

26.04 GB Capacity
10.59 GB Available

iTunes with iOS 9.3

29.81 GB Capacity
11.03 GB Available

I think Apple has some 'splaining to do about their numbers being different on the device and in iTunes.
