just need to decide if I get applecare or not

and according to Geekbench it’s the most powerful ever ~ even other iPad pros

Every review said don’t get it, so I just wanna encourage anyone else thinking about it to ‘be brave’

I have the M1 iPad Pro and it's been amazing. I think we have reached peak iPad design, in my opinion, it is the best possible design with the best possible features. The only thing they can do from now on is to reduce the bezel size or maybe add a chip upgrade.

Enjoy your new iPad Pro, you will love it.

AppleCare is something I always get but thats because I have a toddler. My personal take is it's a peace of mind purchase, those iPads aren't cheap and if they fall, slip etc then repairing them cost almost as much as getting a new one. If you will have your iPad with something like an otter box and dont have kids or pets and are super careful then maybe it's not worth it.

Over here
I have the M1 IPP 12.9". I even got the Apple Magic Keyboard, which I said I never would. It has replaced my laptop for 75% of tasks which I said it never would :)
