Either way, go to the Apple Online Store, navigate to the Apple Certified Refurbished iPad page. Though, I'd argue that a current generation iPad Air is substantial over its predecessor (unless your needs are truly super casual).

If the difference IS a lot to you, then you need to be shopping for an 11-inch iPad Pro.ģ) There's very little reason to NEED to spend money on the CURRENT iPad Pros. The 5th Generation one is way better (and likely to set itself apart from the 4th Generation model down the road as Apple starts adding more M1 specific features to iPadOS). If the difference isn't much to you, buy an iPad Air. Pick up an Apple Pencil, play with it on (a) the current iPad Air or (b) the current 11-inch iPad Pro. This is only worth really examining if you've determined that you're fine with the 10-11-inch iPads because there is only one size option for the 12.9-inch one. This is also subjective and best answered by going into your local Apple Store, or third party Apple authorized reseller and playing around with them. If the answer is that the larger canvas is critical to you, then it's obvious that you are shopping for a 12.9-inch iPad Pro.Ģ) After determining that, the next question you need to answer is "how important is precision and screen response to the Apple Pencil".

No one can tell you which one is most important to you.

You will thank yourself later.ġ) You need to determine how important having a large canvas is. Similarly, do not get any model of iPad that only works with the first generation Apple Pencil. I hope someone can give me some advice, thanks!Ĭlick to expand.If you are truly serious about your Procreate usage, do not get any of the ones you have listed.
