Apple’s iPad Pro rarely gets big discounts, so a meaningful drop on a high-storage model is worth knowing about. The 11-inch iPad Pro with the M5 chip and 1TB of storage is down to $1,499.99 on Amazon. That’s $299 (17%) off its $1,799 list price, $200 less than it was selling for earlier this week, and the lowest price for this model since early July.
The 1TB configuration matters for more than just storage space. Apple gives the 1TB and 2TB versions of the M5 iPad Pro the full 10-core CPU and 16GB of RAM, while the cheaper 256GB and 512GB models get one fewer performance core. If you plan to edit video, work with large photo libraries, or keep the tablet for years, this is the version to have.
The rest of the package is what you’d expect from the iPad Pro. The Tandem OLED display reaches 1,000 nits full screen and 1,600 nits peak for HDR content, the M5 chip has a 10-core GPU and a 16-core Neural Engine for on-device AI work, and Apple’s N1 chip adds Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread support. It also supports faster charging with Apple’s 40W Dynamic Power Adapter, which Apple says can get you to 50% in around 30 minutes.
The iPad Pro 11-inch (M5) has a 4.7 star rating on Amazon from over 700 reviews. It isn’t the cheapest it has ever been, but at this price it’s a strong pick for anyone who has been waiting for a dip before the holidays.
