I just bought an iPad Air 4th generation (2020 model). Amazon had them on sale for $559. I couldn’t justify spending $200+ more for the 11” Pro. I wouldn’t use the camera or Lidar. Face ID would be nice, and so would the 4 speakers, but again there wasn’t enough to justify getting one. I’m really liking my iPad Air. It is crazy fast and has a very nice display screen. I love the new smaller bezel and larger display. A refreshed 11” Pro might be more worth the extra money, but I doubt it.

I’m trading in my old iPad Pro 9.7 which Apple is giving me $190 for. Once I get the Apple gift card for it, I’ll get a keyboard case, probably the Apple Smart Folio Keyboard case. The Magic case is heavier and it can’t be opened to bend the keyboard around behind for holding the iPad like a tablet.
