This is Apple's most capable iPad -- fast enough to handle your laptop's workload on a lighter, further portable device.
"The biggest benefit to using the iPad Pro like a laptop is that you also get iPad-exclusive perks, such as a touchscreen (which hasn't been introduced on MacBooks yet) and the ability to use a stylus, like the Apple Pencil Pro. In this way, the iPad is an even better work machine than Apple's laptops," ZDNET reviewer Maria Diaz writes in her review of the iPad Pro.

How did we choose these early Amazon Prime Day deals?
I spend lots of time writing about technology. I also think most of these sales events are marginally helpful for shoppers. It is more an opportunity for big retailers to reignite interest in their own products (and sell inventory) than it is an opportunity for shoppers to get good deals. Still, good deals exist during these events, so I'll tell you about them when I see them. And if you just so happen to be in the market for one of these devices, I'll lead you in the right direction. I am not going to include a product I cannot vouch for, because I'm not interested in wasting your money (or writing about something bad).
I use established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how frequently it drops. As someone with great familiarity with these products, I also remember the prices of these products and when they've gone historically lower or higher. This helps me determine if it's actually worth buying. If it's not, I'll tell you so.
