Why I bought an iPad Air 3 instead of iPad Pro

Okay before anything else.. I think it& #39;s proper that I start off with a clear outline of the factors I& #39;ll be tackling.
1. Price
2. Function
3. Features
4. Practicality

1. Price
$499 - iPad Air 3rd gen
$799-$999 - iPad Pro 2018
there is a huge gap between the price, and I& #39;ll tell you why I think the Air edition is more cost-efficient.

You don& #39;t need a 120hz display. Despite the promising buttery feel of using a very high-frequency rate display on a tablet, it wouldn& #39;t make much sense if most games and streaming apps do not support such. plus u won& #39;t notice it much, it& #39;s more of a luxury tbh
Albeit the tablet looks futuristic, in terms of practicality, sometimes it& #39;s really hard to get a grip on the iPad with the bezels all evened-out. + the pro edition looks like an android tablet. reading with the tablet is a real struggle as well (esp if u have big hands)
2. Function
TBH.. you won& #39;t do heavy-duty work on your iPad... aside from the Air edition being able to handle heavy work as well.. I realized throughout my use,, you wouldn& #39;t really feel comfy working on a tablet with a limited os (despite the new iPadOS release)

Even if actually you see the benchmark difference when it comes to the processor and overall performance of both tabs, you don& #39;t necessarily get to make the most out of it. it& #39;s kinda like buying a 512GB storage you wouldn& #39;t really get to occupy
3. Features
Sure there may be downsides if to settle with an Air such as (being left with just Gen 1 Apple Pencil) but you know.. the two apple pencils (gen 2) only have barely noticeable differences. just with their latency, build quality, and magnetic properties

owning a gen 2 pencil is sure convenient, but it doesnt take away the fact that gen 1 does wonders. awkward charging? get a dedicated charger for it (yes there are some).. plus having the pencil stuck beside the tablet is
btw the air is thin as hell.. so i think it& #39;s kind of reasonable to not have gen 2 apple pencil support. cuz u know, you can always buy a case with a pocket for an apple pencil naman
4. Practicality
I promise.. even if you get an iPad.. you will still feel the need to lay your hands on a computer. working on an iPad doesn& #39;t feel as official. It& #39;s kind of lacking features esp with the baby parts of it (such as file management, flash drives, etc)

anyway, if you& #39;re about to ask me, yes I have used both already. that& #39;s why if you& #39;re on a budget, Air is the best alternative. Really no regrets. It& #39;s got huge workspace to get things done, a laminated display (so drawing feels like ur drawing on top of it litrally)
also ipad pro really thick kinda.... uhm just buy air you aint gonna lose anything major.
anyway i made this thread to convince myself i make good decisions in life.
mom are you proud of me
