Deal Details
Not the slickest, but for those who don't want to wait on the new 2020 iPad Pro (with A12Z chip) release Costco is taking pre-orders with discounts. All expect to ship on week of 3/30/20.

11-inch 128GB Space Grey for $749.99 (MSRP of $799.00): link [costco.com]
11-inch 128GB Silver for $749.99 (MSRP of $799.00): link [costco.com]
12.9-inch 128GB Silver for $949.99 (MSRP of $999.00): link [costco.com]

Savings on the higher memory models also appear to be $49 off MSRP (e.g., 11 inch 256GB models are $850 at Costco vs. $899 MSRP; 12.9 inch 256GB models are $1,050 at Costco vs. $1,099 MSRP). On a *relative* basis, best discount is on the entry level 11-inch 128GB (given the same $49 savings across all models).

Why does this iPad look so much sleeker and sexier than my 9.5" pro.

No home button and smaller bezels. Same as 2018 iPad Pros.

You mean the 9.7" iPad Pro? If so, those have the thickest bezels of all iPad Pros. That's why! Smilie

The camera is complete overkill.
That's one thing I almost never use on an iPad.

$300 to be exact for the 11 inch model and $350 for the 12.9 inch model

Agreed. 99% of people who buy this do not need that. I personally would prefer it to be completely flat on the back and cheaper without the camera (probably adds at least $100 to each model)

I think he's referring to the new Apple keyboard with the trackpad

Well they are trying new things with this IPAD. They are throwing some weird 3d sensor and hope that developers catch use for it. I personally think it is going to be another gimmicky feature like 3d touch but Apple is pushing it to this ipad and iphone.

Compared with 2018 model.

1. Slightly faster processor.
2. Wide angle camera
3. 3d sensor
4. Faster wifi from 800 mb to 1gb
5. Increase in baseline storage (64 vs 128). More storage for the same price
6. Compatibility with magic keyboard ($300 btw)

May be worth 100 bucks more but 2018 ipad will be discounted once new one is released. I speculate 2018 model will be around $600. For $150 more, I don't think it's worth it.

CPU is the same based on the (few) benchmarks posted. GPU does get a bit of a bump, however.

The faster Wi-Fi is only applicable if you have a Wi-Fi 6 router. And even then, there are many factors that effect wireless speeds.

Also, the 2018 iPad Pro is also compatible with the upcoming Magic Keyboard w/trackpad.

As you go up in price the Costco price becomes closer to the target price after using a Red card.

I think RAM goes to 6gb. A nice bump for video editing esp 4K
