Of course, if you can’t wait that long or don’t care that much about tablet photography and routine performance improvements, the 2018-released iPad Pros can occasionally be extremely smart purchases nowadays. Case in point, a killer new Amazon deal that lets you save a whopping 300 bucks in total on a silver-coated 11-inch model with 256 gigs of internal storage space and both Wi-Fi connectivity and cellular support.

Technically, this very specific iPad Pro 11 configuration is listed as discounted by only $199.01 at the time of this writing, but if you hurry, you can shave an additional $100 off a typically exorbitant $1,099 price point at checkout with no heavy lifting or strings attached of any sort. Other Wi-Fi-only and LTE-enabled variants of the 11-inch powerhouse are marked down as well, but the savings are nowhere near as drastic as $299.01. 

Powered by a state-of-the-art Apple A12X Bionic processor that runs circles around the Snapdragon 855 found inside the likes of Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S6 in most popular benchmarks, the iPad Pro 11 also sports a beautiful “Liquid Retina” display with ProMotion, True Tone, and razor-thin bezels, as well as Face ID biometric recognition, excellent battery life, and top-notch speakers. 

Perhaps this bad boy is still not a productivity champion, especially without the Smart Keyboard sold separately, but when it comes to multimedia consumption, the iPad Pro family remains pretty much unrivaled in today’s increasingly competitive tablet landscape.
