I wonder if I can purchase today and go back on Sunday for a price match lol
If you can I would recommend it. I went to my local Staples to give up and buy at $650 and it was out of stock both at my store and every other one nearby according to inventory the store guys had.

I think the strategy is to use the deal price to PM other vendors, not drive from store to store.

Tim Apple hangs a "Pro" moniker on everything low-end these days to confuse the sheep.
Still waiting for the Air Tag Pro.

Might run into some difficulty getting it pricematched at other retailers because these iPad Pros are out of stock both in all the Staples stores near me and Staples online (as of now).

Better screen, better speakers, better camera. This Pro is the way to go.
For me it all comes down to the price. If the price is within $50, then go with the pro.

For an 11 inch tablet, I don't think most of us would really care about the ultrawide back camera as much. Having a good camera is great, but the air's camera more than meets it's needs. Also the front cameras are the same. I can't imagine pulling this out of a bag to take pictures with the rear camera, though I've seen others do it.

Same with speakers. The speakers on the air are good enough, and if I want better, I'd use headphones or BT audio.

So really it comes down to the screen. It's nice to have better speakers and camera too, but those would weigh in pretty low in the decision. Most of those improvements are not the sort of things you'll feel every day. ProMotion is the biggest benefit.

I really want the 12.9" pro (I have XXL hands) but can't justify the hefty price tag. $1k just for basic media consumption is insane…BUT the size is LOVELY.

My concern is getting the 11'' pro that I may get buyer remorse because it the same size as the Air or base model iPad.

Maybe I'll be happy with $600? Idk ☹️
