More ipad should be discounted soon, based on leaks Apple is slated to release new iPad May 6th, or until WWDC which is in June.

https://www.macrumors.com/guide/apple-event/

But since it's costco.... technically you can get this and see if the new one will be better, costco has a 3month return policy on ipad.

Apple just announced event time, expect more drops from other vendors: https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/2...-ipad-date
11 inch 4th gen m2 iPad Pro debuted October 18th, 2022. How is that 4 years ago?
I pads years like dog years. 😂

i love I pads

that said.. can't wait for oled ipads... sucks apple is always decade behind current tech/standards. i.g. usbc, aod, swipe to type, charging ports on the sides of mice and not the bottom, etc etc etc etc. i'm honestly surprised oled is leaked for the next ipad.. i would've thought apple would only finally go oled in maybe 2030

I have an older iPad Pro and it looks very good I have an oled phone and oled tv but have never wished omg I wish this was soled. I use it as an iPad I watch movies and shows on the plane and at home etc.

Oled has its issues like burnin etc I would be more worried about babying the screen

I bought one of these last November. Mine has 512 GB and the cellular option, and I bought the Magic Keyboard and a 3rd party pencil as well.

My review is mixed. There are a lot of pluses -- it videoconferences beautifully with all of the major platforms, you can download many hours of Netflix movies and play them during a flight, it browses the web, does emails and all that. The handwriting recognition with the pencil is extremely good. Surprisingly so. And when I plugged it into the Thunderbolt 3 hub I use for my laptop.... everything worked! Keyboard/mouse/4K monitor, card reader, external drive, Ethernet, charging and web cam all worked. Impressive! If you have Office 365, you can run Word, Excel and PowerPoint. And if you pay for the cellular access, you can get very fast Internet almost anywhere, without finding a WiFi hotspot. And the Magic Keyboard is expensive but excellent. It's much lighter than a MacBook Air or other laptop and resumes instantly. And of course it integrates with all of the iCloud applications, so if you have a Mac and/or iPhone, all of your messages, calendars, notes and photos are synced effortlessly. It will take phone calls and FaceTime calls... there's a lot to like. I haven't had a single freeze or crash. It's so small that they let me keep it on my lap when the airplane takes off and lands, and it has enough battery life to play movies for a six hour flight.

The downsides:
It has limits as a laptop replacement. You can run MS Office but they aren't quite as good as the desktop versions. File management is pretty bad. There's a "Files" app that lets you save files locally or to cloud locations, but it's nothing like Mac Finder or Windows Explorer. Does the job, but not great. For "Pro" applications Apple advertises, like Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, and video editing... some people use it, but I can't stand it for those tasks. The Magic Keyboard costs $250. Ouch!!! But this is a $600 model, without the cellular connectivity, and I think it's a great value at that price, and it can replace a laptop if your expectations are reasonable.

My main complaint is that this Pro model is billed as an M2 processor powerhouse... and it isn't. It runs a LOT slower than a MacBook with an M1 or M2, and it's limited to iPhone/iPad apps, not MacOS apps. It seems like apps are more limited than they are with MacOS or Windows.

Apple's Magic Pencil 2 costs about $100. I bought this one [amazon.com] for $25. It has the same wireless charging feature and does everything the Pencil 2 does, except that it does not support the pressure sensitivity feature. So it's not good if you're an artist, but for adjusting sliders in Lightroom and for handwriting, at 1/4 the price it is outstanding.

Decent price if you need one now, but worst time of year to buy one given the possible upcoming announcements

Not really. New products will come out, and they'll cost more and be marginally better.

The problem with iPad is that the OS and its thermal requirements slow it down compared to a laptop. Replacing the M2 CPU with an M3 or an M4 won't make it any faster. The software needs to be improved to do that.

I'll give you an example: I attached a USB hub with a fast card reader and an SSD drive. It took 3 1/2 minutes to copy 30GB of photos from the card to the SSD drive. I unplugged the hub, with the drives attached, and attached it to my Mac... same EVERYTHING. Repeated the copy in less than 60 seconds. That's a 350% performance difference... getting a CPU that's 20% faster isn't going to move that needle... fixing the software will.

That's my opinion as well, apple has intentionally handicapped ipad / iPadOS so it doesn't cannibalize macbook sales.

Most casual users that only do email, light browsing etc won't need to buy a MacBook if iPad did all those tasks, allow external displays, etc

Huh it is a good price. If you have a link to a lower price from a reputable vendor please share it.

Whether or not this model works for everyone (and it doesn't) is a completely separate story.

Modern OLED devices from reputable brands all have software/hardware that can prevent burn in.

Yeah, pretty much a nonissue with tablets, at least in my experience. I've got 5 hard years on the amoled in my tab s6 (launched 2019!) and no issues to speak of, looks considerably better than regular LED screens for movies.

Pretty good price for this iPad but with new iPad Pros coming soon, it's best to wait for potentially bigger, better sales.

My 2018 iPad Pro 11" is still working great. Might upgrade to the new iPad Pro just for the OLED screen, but I'll wait for reviews and pricing to decide.

Have never had to babysit an oled screen. The current iphones use OLEDs and they work on par with the prior screen techs if not better. Several other devices also lean on OLED and need no special care. The tech is several generations old where the burn ins of early OLED are now a non issue.

💯 if they simply allow MacOS as an option for ipads, these things will sell like hot cakes. There is obvious con in potentially cannibalizing some of their laptop market but hope they can get above it & let customers have it for once.
