I was recently gifted a refurbished 12.9 inch M1 iPad Pro & a second gen Apple Pencil. My friends got them from Amazon & said the price was really good.

I got the base model with 128gb of storage and 8gb of ram. This device blows me away, the screen is simply stunning! All my apps are smooth, transitions are seamless. I am no artist but am attempting to learn Procreate via watching YouTube videos on the subject. Aside from the screen, I really notice the speakers, the sound quality is very good. Reading on the bigger screen is also easier for me.

As a cancer patient luxuries come few & far between….very happy & grateful for this thoughtful gift ❤️❤️❤️

I hope you enjoy yours. Have a great day and safe journeys with your new ipad. I really think you will love it just as much down the line.

PS. You have some great friends. I find those with great friends tend to be really great people too. Be safe, enjoy your friends and cheers!

My friends and family are wonderfu!! They get my love of iPad and know that since I spend a lot of time in bed ( treatment related side effects) they figured having the bigger Pro would make life easie, having the Apple 🖊 gives me something to learn how to use. Plus, the M1 chip will last me a long time. I am stunned with gratitude & stuffed with love here.

I am also addicted to Severance! My husband says it’s like have a TV I can carry to bed, he is not an Apple fan but looked at the picture quality and said it was amazing!

There are lots of great tutorials on YouTube. If you haven’t already found Teela Cunningham and every-Tuesday.com, check it out. She has a great free intro to Procreate course.

My daughter attended two of the in-store Apple sessions which focused on using Procreate; she loves to draw and says Procreate is really good. Congrats on your iPad Pro! I love mine as well!

And all the best wishes for your treatment and a speedy recovery; much health and happiness to you. My husband is a cancer survivor and you will be too!
