Have iPad 3 Gen. Should I upgrade to new iPad Pro or new iPad that was introduced today?

I think the 2018 iPad will be just fine for your needs, OP. I was playing around with one yesterday, and while I prefer the iPP’s screen and latency, I was nicely surprised at how responsive and capable this new iPad seems to be.

I think the 2018 would delight you and perform everything you need, while being cheaper too. If you think you want an iPP, I agree with the other posters who say wait.

If I was in your position, I would get the 2018 model though. It is a nice upgrade to what you’ve been using for awhile with the added bonus of pencil capabilities.

I’m just surprised you could stand the 3rd gen this long. I was ready to throw mine against the wall in frustration until trading it in for the 5th gen last fall.

If in your situation, I’d go directly to the 6th gen. Beautiful high resolution retina display with the latest fast processor at a decent price. Should perform well for quite a long time.

I had a 3 as well. As far as I'm concerned, it was one of the worst Apple products ever. Yes, the screen was a huge leap but it was totally not ready and the product cycle was a disaster.

<snip>I believe it as around $699 if I recall. Don't mind spending the same amount <snip>

budget is always the best way to judge this

Pro's are worth it but depends on your budget

Seems the choice is clear.
