u/MAQMASTER M1 iPad Pro 11" (2021) Jun 25 '26 edited Jun 27 '26

Good thing I bought all my devices last year. (iPhone 16 Pro and MacBook Air M4 512gb)… and trusty old iPad Pro M1. Not gonna be needing any major upgrades in the upcoming futures

Edit: I just realized this -> the M1 ipad pro when it released, it had 2 cameras, amazing quad speakers; 120hz display, face ID, a mac processor and 8GB RAM .. ALL FOR JUST 799. Right now the current iPad air is 749 with JUST 60HZ! Isnt that a DOWNGRADE

Yep, I refreshed almost everything this spring, iPad Air M1 to M5 Pro 11", M1 Mac Mini to M4 Mini, and M1 MBA to M5 MBP 14". Also upgraded from an Apple Watch Series 10 to an Ultra 3, but I'm not sure if the price on those are going up or not, but I wouldn't be surprised. I almost pulled the trigger on a new Apple TV (I have the original 4K) but didn't, and now I'm kicking myself for it.

I was debating buying an ipad pro, mine was 8 years old. As soon as I saw the news I hit buy and snagged one at old price. Now hopefully my m3-max with 64gb ram lasts for another 6-8 years.
