If you want Apple’s best tablet, the unquestionable leader is the 12.9-inch M2 iPad Pro. But the M1 version from 2021 is essentially the same other than the chip and Apple Pencil Hover, and it’s a steal at this price: Wellbots is selling the 12.9-inch M1 iPad Pro with 128GB of storage and cellular connectivity for $845, a savings of $454.
The 12.9-inch iPad Pro isn’t just Apple’s biggest tablet—it also has its best screen, a Liquid Retina XDR display with ProMotion like the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros. You’ll get an older M1 chip and Wi-Fi 6 instead of 6E, but it will be plenty fast enough and everything else is there, including Face ID, all-day excellent battery life, fast data transfers with a USB-C Thunderbolt 4 port, and 2nd-gen Apple Pencil support.
Apple is due to launch a new iPad Pro in the spring, but it’s expected to get a major price increase to go with it. So if you want Apple’s biggest and brightest tablet, go grab one now and save a bundle.
