Forget the over-powered M4 iPad – the excellent M2 Pro has $400 off

Right now, if you want to buy an 11-inch, 512GB iPad Pro with both wi-fi and cellular, but you don't want to fork out for the full $1,399, there is a way you can get an Apple tablet for under a grand. Right now Best Buy is selling the M2 iPad Pro with those specs for just $899.

That's a good saving, and if you were to buy the most recent M4 iPad Pro with that storage and that size, it would be $500 more (Best Buy is stating the retail price of the M2 as $1,299, so this is actually a $400 saving).

The M2 iPad Pro is a fantastic tablet, which really utilises its chip, whereas you could argue the recent M4 chip is overkill. Either way, when we reviewed the M2 iPad, we gave it a near perfect 4.5 stars and called it, 'the ultimate tablet for creative pros'. That statement still stands.
