iPad Pro 2024 price against power
For the first time in its entire history, Apple has offered an OLED screen to the iPad Pro as well as placed the new M4 chip under the hood. The company has also entailed a 13-inch Air to the lineup, offering both the models in 11- and 13-inch sizes.

Meanwhile, their cellular counterparts are available at $1,199 and $1,499, respectively.
Both the base models bring to the table a heaping scoop of storage capacity: 256GB of built-in storage, double of what you get with the latest iPad Air model, and go all the way up to 2TB with price variations.
