Is it worth upgrading to the new iPad Pro or iPad Air?
The new iPad Pro and iPad Air models offer faster performance, improved displays, and increased storage options. But are they worth the price tag?
Overall, these new models are geared toward power users, like professional gamers and video editors, who can benefit from the precise colour detail and ultra-fast M4 processor. The M1 processor, even the A14 processor, found in older iPad models is plenty fast for answering emails, watching Netflix, playing games, or working on presentations — what most of us use iPads for in our day-to-day lives.
The same goes for storage space. If you’re not working with incredibly large files and applications, you don’t need 2 terabytes or even 1 terabyte of hard drive space. Especially if you use cloud storage for your documents, photos, and videos, you’ll be just fine with a smaller internal hard drive.
So before you line up to spend £2,000 or more on the latest iPad, take a moment to think about how you’ll actually use it. If you’re not a professional videographer or sponsored gamer, there are plenty of refurbished options that meet your needs at a fraction of the price. With free shipping, free 30-day returns, and a 1-year warranty, Back Market has an impressive selection of refurbished iPads with the specs you need to power your everyday life.
