😂 lots of people work on their iPads, or use them for school and like to be able to connect without WiFi or a hotspot.

Do I really want this thing? I've been waiting for this exact type of deal all this time. Is now finally the time? Am I going to regret passing on this if I let this one go? Will I truly be happy? What is my opportunity cost of buying this? Will this purchase yield the best utility for me for the money? Why do I need a third iPad?

Ever heard of a mobile hotspot?

Most phones can broadcast wifi signal and act as a wireless router using it's own mobile data. Much more cost effective than paying $$$$ for additional cell service. But if you don't care about spending the extra coin, to each their own.
I have a $10/mo unlimited 5G plan on my iPad Pro. How much does your unlimited hotspot phone plan cost?

Why not just use a MacBook Air? Much more practical and capable IMO instead of carrying around one of these with the separate keyboard, and have to deal with the tablet IOS limitations.
I've found I really appreciate the shallower form factor of the iPad Pro with keyboard (due to the hinge location) - it's just enough smaller than an Air to be airplane friendly. The iPad's display is notably better - 50% brighter and 120hz ProMotion, and Pencil support makes signing old school PDFs a breeze - much more convenient vs converting to an e-sign form.

I have an M2 Air, 14" M1 Pro, and an M1 iPad Pro — the iPad sees probably 5x the use of the other two combined.

I have T Mobile Magenta One family plan with unlimited data for $25 per person. I use an unlocked, non-T Mobile branded phone so I get unlimited tethering at no additional cost.

$10/month isn't bad though, especially if you can replace a regular phone plan. which carrier?

What's your opinion on the M2 Air vs 14" M1 pro? I heard the M2 Air is a bit more fragile than the M1 due to the larger screen with less border?

But the iPad will auto connect to your hotspot. It's seamless with no extra cost for most plans
Yea but connection would be better if the circular service is on the device it self

It should qualify since this is a new device. Applecare can be purchased anytime before the manufactures warrenty expires, at leas that is how I understand it
I wish I did this with .y ipad 7th gen. After 3 yrs of use it stopped charging and costs $180 to repair charging port. I'd rather just use that money towards a new one

Oh nice, for the longest time I had 40GB tethering with Magenta Max - I didn't know certain phones could get around the limit. That's pretty slick. I have a business plan now with 100GB tethering, so realistically I don't "need" the tablet plan anymore but it's so convenient that I've kept it. No waiting for tethering, no phone battery murder from tethering, and I swear the iPad has better reception - my phone will sometimes lose service and ask me if I should connect to the iPad hotspot.

I love the M2 Air. So much that I've considered if I should sell the M1 Pro, lol. I haven't found the Air to be fragile, but I'm also much gentler on my laptops than a lot of people are. It's usually either in a laptop backpack or in use on a table/somewhere safe, vs being knocked around on a bus or airplane or something. The 14" Pro has a bit bigger screen (14.2" vs 13.6") but it's not a significant difference. The M2 Air is also light enough that it still feels solid, as opposed to say a 16" MBP that has that weird flexy bit in the middle.

I challenge that as being true. And an ipad data plan is at least $15/month

Is that Magenta One plan still available that price?

It cost 8.50 a month through Verizon for unlimited LTE service on the iPad. Evidently you're a little hard up if you can't handle that

What carrier is giving you that?

I have free/included hotspot on my verizon unlimited. Unless I switched to a low cost prepaid carrier, its the best plan I can have as it includes a FIOS discount and disney plus (it's an older plan)
