Anyone here in a dilemma like me? Been waiting to upgrade from my iPad 6th Gen 2018 and now stuck between waiting to get iPad Air 4 or iPad Pro 2020 with education promo. Not really sure which is more value for money.
At this kind of premium pricing for tablets, do not settle for anything that you will have regrets later on. Definitely iPad Pro. I will never use an iPAD without a case, so the colour options doesn't have any impact.
iPad Pro is more worth it
Agree.
iPad Pro 2020:
- More performance cores (4 vs 2)
- More RAM (6GB vs rumored 4GB)
- Significantly better GPU
- ProMotion 120Hz
- Twice the storage
- Better rear cameras
- Slightly bigger display
- Face ID
- LiDAR
iPad Air 2020:
- Cheaper
- More colors
- Better neural processor
- Touch ID
Using education pricing, after selling free airpods (assume $160), iPad Pro is 1129-160=969. iPad Air will be $809. $160 difference, you decide which is more worth it.
Alternatively you can consider refurb iPad Pro 2018 64GB at $819 when it is available
This is the best advice so far. Get a refurbish 2018 unit.
I just ordered a new 12.9 iPad Pro, it renders video faster than my 2015 macbook pro, and I prefer the larger screen estate for drawing purposes. Won't be bring it outdoors, given the current situation.
