The new 11-inch iPad Pro is now available at Amazon for the lowest price ever, making the base model of Apple’s top-tier tablet only $699. That is $40 less than it was before to Black Friday and $100 off the original price. If you’ve been considering the Pro, this is perhaps the best deal you’ll find this year even though it won’t arrive in time for Christmas. The 128GB WiFi model receives the biggest discount, and it also applies to the Silver colour scheme. The 256 GB WiFi variant and the 512 GB WiFi model are both discounted by $60 if you’d need a little bit more capacity. The WiFi plus cellular settings should be noted even the enormous, TB-size models are not currently on sale.
The addition of Apple’s newest CPU, the M2 chip, to the iPad Pro was the largest update when it was released at the end of October. That increased the power of a tablet that was already strong. In our assessment, we scored the slab an 87 and praised its “ludicrously” quick speeds and best-in-class screen. Apple’s new Stage Manager, which supports multitasking with overlapping and resizable windows, is easily utilised by the iPad Pro. The feature ultimately enables the Pro to effectively utilise all the speed that has been granted to it.
Paired up the Magic Keyboard, the tablet is an extremely capable hybrid device, though with that accessory’s $300 price tag, you’ve essentially entered laptop price range. That said, the iPad Pro is still an impressive tablet with plenty of power and a great screen. The changes to this model probably aren’t enough to warrant an upgrade if you’ve got 2021’s model. But if you’ve been thinking about grabbing a Pro, this $100 discount is a great time to snap it up.
