The 128GB model of Apple’s 12.9-inch iPad Pro<\/a> is back down to $1,000 at Amazon, matching the lowest price we’ve tracked. It’s listed at $1,049, but an additional coupon for $49.01 will be applied at checkout. For reference, Apple typically sells the tablet for $1,099, though we’ve periodically seen it drop to $1,049 since it launched<\/a> last October.<\/span><\/p>\n

The iPad Pro is the top choice in our guide to the best tablets<\/a>, and the 12.9-inch model specifically is the “best for power users” pick in our breakdown of the best iPads<\/a>. To be clear, this is more tablet than most people need, as the iPad Air<\/a> or entry-level iPad<\/a> are much better values for those just looking for browse the web, read e-books, stream video and do some basic work on a tablet. But for those who have cash to burn and want the biggest and most powerful iPad Apple makes, this is it.<\/p>\n

The iPad Pro’s M2 chip is the same as the one in the latest MacBook Air<\/a>, and its display is the most advanced of any iPad, with a 120Hz refresh rate and mini-LED backlighting that allows for better contrast and brightness. (The latter feature isn’t available on the 11-inch Pro<\/a>.) Compared to the Air, its speakers are more robust, it has a faster Thunderbolt USB-C port and its camera system is more advanced, with a flash and ultrawide lens. All told, we gave the tablet a review score of 87<\/a> last year.<\/p>\n

It’s still best to look at this as a premium tablet than a universal laptop replacement, as iPadOS can still make multitasking and other basic PC tasks more convoluted than they could be. That said, its spacious display, fast chip and Apple Pencil support<\/a> can make it a powerful tool for creative types in particular. If you’ve been thinking about taking the plunge, this deal makes the device at least a little more affordable. If you don’t need the latest and greatest chip, meanwhile, note that a 256GB cellular model<\/a> of the previous-generation iPad Pro is down to the same price at Best Buy.<\/p>\n
