Quote from your link : After using the the 1TB model for 24 hours and switching back to the base model, the differences in using the higher spec version feel marginal in day-to-day use, and are not substantial enough to me to warrant spending the extra 600, so the 1TB model was returned
Trying to price match this to best buy and then use paypal pay in 4 20% off - anyone try this?
That's a great offer, I did a trade-in iPad 13" M4 for a "refurbished" (returned excellent iPad Pro 13" M5 in BB), with the paypal pay later and got the 20%... is like $248 dls in points to receive
My M4 was great, but the BB price and paypal offer was too good to let it pass...
at the end with taxes and all, I'll pay just like $214 dlls for the new iPad Pro 13" M5
VPN, remote access to other systems, streaming, stock charts/daytrading, kids school apps, home survellleiance, Xbox online on the go , etc. I currently have the 11 Pro but the smaller screen can be limiting for certain uses. And some apps aren't availeble for Windows. And I don't want a MacBook because I need the touchscreen. Lots of uses.
I got a price match invoice from BestBuy, but it doesn't contain the PayPal option. Going to chat again and see if they can price match in a way where I can checkout with Paypal

I had same issue. Used the Best Buy app on phone instead and it worked. Paid full price of $1299, then chatted with BB CS to get the price match. On PayPal, you will see pending 20% via points. So comes out to $899 - $249 = $650.
I don't even need one but got it anyways.

Hi, how do you get PayPal 20% off? Do you need a PayPal credit card or something? I dont see that option (20% off) at bestbuy PayPal checkout. Also, who is bestbuy price matching? May be interested in this deal. 😻

Was trying to score one. Bb said sold out of the 512gb.
Because the price match invoice didn't allow PayPal payment, I chatted with a CSR. He told me to complete the purchase at full price (i.e., not using the price match invoice link that I had been e-mailed), and then he would approve the price match on the back end. I did so. However, when he went to process the price match he said it IS eligible, but the price match is too large for him to approve immediately. He said "dispatch" would get back to me in 2-3 days approving the price match. So, I have fingers crossed that it goes through. PayPal does show I have $250 in pending cashback (i.e., 25,000 Paypal points)

Brighter, more color accurate screen, faster refresh rate for smoother video and scrolling, Face ID (don't discount the utility of Face ID on a tablet), especially if you get a keyboard case too.
The M4 and M5 Pro's can tackle jobs usually meant for full computers like photo, video, music editing. But I think they are justifiable, especially at this price for any daily use just because of the screen and Face ID (something I wish my Macs had). Cellular is handy to have too if you travel overseas a lot - I don't trust free Wi-Fi in the US much less elsewhere. I can use my phone as a hotspot in the US but the speeds get throttled overseas so it needs its own connection.

These iPads are very thin and light, comfortable to hold for extended periods of time.
