"Built for intelligence" while they have not deployed their version of "intelligence" (i.e. AI) ... The biggest scam in marketing that has ever existed in the history of the planet... I get what they are trying to do, but to mark up so much their product with the "promise what the iPad is built for" that is a scam at its worse and slap in the face of all customers at best

You'll notice it. Will it bother you? That's another question. It has not bothered me for similar use cases as yours (productivity).

How do you activate the spend $500, save $50?
I noticed this issue to - it only applies to certain tech items, not anything above $500 - you can see in the product details if the $50 off applies along with the promotional $70 off. I wanted to get the 13" but it did not have the attached $50 off $500 deal so I got this one.

What is a good solid case to get with this iPad? iPad will be for son going off to college.
I was able to get in the Walmart Apple Magic Keyboard case for this model for $120 - that acts as a case and a keyboard. Seems ideal if you can get the keyboard near you, YMMV of course.
*Seems like the price has gone up to $130ish but still better than $250+ 🤯

Screen is better on the Air, the chip is faster, memory is more, supports a pan and it support the Windows like app to work as a laptop....

Total 482 for me including taxes and shipping. Do you guys think this one is better than A16 which is for 299.

Only if your use case involves productivity such as graphic design or video editing. Other than that, the main upgrades is 120hz, better colors, and better SOC.

I got the A16 iPad since I'm only using it for streaming and browsing. The only thing I hate is the 60Hz display.

You would hear it if it was 64g for sure. 128 is the bare minimum for storage acceptance.

I have 3.5 year old iPad Pro 11inch 128gb which is the M1 chip. It says I can trade it in for a Costco gift card for 325 and it appears my Magic Keyboard will work on this new one. This seems like a no brainer with 5% off for having exec membership and Costco credit card. I don't do much graphic intensive stuff with my pro. I use it for work all day but the battery seems to not last as long as it used to.

No point to go backwards. M1 to M3 will be unnoticeable. I would choose M1 iPad Pro over M3 iPad Air any time.

How is screen better on air? You will lose promotion, and Face ID, four speaker as well. Gaining 1 GPU core, which is hardly noticeable. Memory is the same.

I ordered this 3 times from local walmart and each time it got canceled immediately. I didn't even want it but for $120 it was worth a shot.

Problem with the A16 is that you don't qualify for $50 off until you get to $500. If it did, I would've been more inclined to get it.

That said, I've always gone with the base iPad model with lowest storage to get bang for the buck.
