For anyone debating this versus the new Air, you have to look at the Air the same way you would the Pro. Only true creatives and those looking for the utmost premium experience will see the true value in the Air.

I went with the regular iPad after much debate and don't regret it one bit. After using/owning every level of iPad in the last, having the "cheap" version has its advantages. First being that this design, while some say is outdated, has been in production for so long that many of its quirks have been ironed out. The lack of laminated display also means you won't have costly replacements, nor will you see the level of backlight bleed or bezel pressure points that rough handling can cause issues with.

The screen quality is also excellent for content consumption. The lack of Truetone is my biggest gripe, but you'd only notice the difference comparing it side by side with another model.

I hope some of this info can be helpful to those of you looking. At the end of the day, I would say take one of these and put the extra money into nice accessories.
I just looked into the specifics of this myself. This is what I found on their website:

The 2nd year warranty is offered on the following items:
Televisions
Projectors
Computers*
Major Appliances†

*Excluding Touchscreen Tablets.
†Refrigerators (above 10 cu. ft.), freezers, ranges, cooktops, over-the-range microwaves, dishwashers, water heaters, washers and dryers.
At Costco now, they have the space gray at this price in store

I can't decide whether to hop on this or wait and see if the Air does better than $560 on Black Friday

365 for the 8th gen 10" 128gb is pretty slick.

Not saying I regret buying the mini at 350, but I rue and lament it.

Same here, Air has A14 and this has A12. Debating on getting ipad Air to future proof it.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank sinerge

I went with Best Buy at the same price yesterday since there was a AMEX offer for $25 back on $250 spend + they include 4 months of Apple Music and News.

Waiting for this to hit $250 to pull the trigger, not in a rush to get it
Still a good deal for anyone that needs this now though

It's very similar with the Best Buy Early Access iPad deal for me. $390.53 after tax and shipping - 5% back to my credit card ($19.53) and 2% back on the item pre-tax and shipping with Executive Membership ($7.20). Total of $363.80.

Best Buy probably would have been around $5 less (no shipping) - AMEX $25 off $250 - 1% back on the total charge = around $356.67.

The difference is worth buying from Costco for me. Would probably submit a price adjustment request if there are any further drops for Black Friday and return/rebuy if that doesn't go through.

The Air is $569 with a Costco membership at its standard price. I think people are curious if it'll drop lower closer to BF.

You can return things at pretty much any time. If you buy on their citi visa, your warranty is extended by one year. (Worth it with kids, imo.) Plus you get cash back on the citi.

I assume these prices are in store as well? Shipping to home and store pickup are showing $4.99 charge. I'll probably be there this weekend anyways, anyone confirmed online and in store or just online?

Return policy is 90 days on computers and tablets I believe.
