"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

No point to go backwards. M1 to M3 will be unnoticeable. I would choose M1 iPad Pro over M3 iPad Air any time.
I'm ordered it and will try it for a few days and see what I think. I think my biggest complaint will be lack of Face ID but I might appreciate battery life better. I'll also have an almost comparable product with battery life that is 3.5 years newer. I'll post back when I try it on Thursday.

the base is great. sound and screen are technically not as good (does not have full lamination and less bass) but I would just go for base.

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.

Battery is indeed better, but usability between M1 and M3 in iPadOS doesn't feel any different. Where you notice is the pro has faceid where the air has touch. I switched and really miss my faceID

The $50 promo must be one time use. I had to cancel my original order for a diff color but now the $50 is no longer being applied.

We purchased iPad Air M3 from Costco warehouse couple of weeks ago, still writhing 30 days price adjustment allowance , but Costco b&m won't adjust / price match online Costco deals. Can we order it online and then return the same unopened iPad with old b&m receipt? Anyone knows?

You can use no machine to your favorite device or VM. With a keyboard and trackpad/mouse (along w/ tailscale) bob is your uncle.
I personally use ipad because photo apps are vastly cheaper on ios vs desktop and I really like using pencil vs a mouse/etc. With stage manager and an external monitor I find myself rarely picking up my MBP anymore. I may even sell it since I also ditched M365 and moved to GWP 100%.

wow, amazing nobody complains about the small storage size yet
It's $100 more for 256GB, so not a bad markup for a $3 cost to Apple Smilie

Does anyone know why Costco stopped selling the iPad mini? I wonder if they started to be sold at other places for such a low price that it didn't make sense since Costco couldn't offer any extra value.

At $450, this is way better than the base model.

I have this version of the iPad Air, and it has the Apple AI available on it. Not sure what you are talking about.

We have to pay to get it shipped to the store? Am I missing something? They're charging me $5 for ship to store and the same to ship to home

Can't give up the quad speakers and faceid. Better to have the iPad Pro swapped out under battery warranty
