If you don’t want to wait, you can snag the 256GB previous-gen iPad Pro 12.9 WiFi/LTE tablet for $949 (opens in new tab)($350 off) at B&H. As we note in our iPad Pro 12.9 review (opens in new tab), some of the things we love about the tablet are its vivid, super-bright display and useful trackpad support. We were so impressed by the iPad Pro 12.9’s stellar performance that we gave it a 4.5 out of 5-star overall rating. The iPad Pro 2020’s looking nearly identical to its predecessor. The only noticeable difference is its square camera bump on the back. Measuring 11 x 8.5 x 0.2 inches and weighing 1.4 pounds, the iPad Pro is thinner and lighter than its main competitor, the Surface Pro 7 (0.3 inches, 1.7 pounds). The iPad Pro performed well in our lab, achieving a score of 4,720 on the multi-core portion on the Geekbench 5 overall performance test. It surpassed the 2019 iPad Pro’s A12X Bionic chip (4,635) and the Surface Pro 7’s 10th gen Intel Core i5 chip (4,443). So if you want a big-screen tablet with a robust feature set and laptop-killing performance, the iPad Pro is a solid buy.
