I was planning on buying an iPad Pro 11" but here where I live the price is prohibitive 5100BRL = 1300 USD for a 64gb Wifi 11" iPad, this put me on the fence about buying, also I found a 2017 12,9" iPad Pro for sale, new, 512gb, Wifi+4G, for 4900BRL (1250USD) in clearance, as those models are going out of line with new one launching.

Now I don't know if it would be better to pay 4900 in a top of the line 2017 Ipad or 5100 on a bottom of the line 2018 iPad, I plan to use for Procreate, and CAD, I think the bigger screen will be way better, also the pencil is cheaper, but with the new it is more future proof, what do you guys think about this? would I be doing a great purchase with the 2017 one?

Do the new features on the new iPad Pencil appeal to you? If they do, the new one is probably for you. Otherwise, it boils down to whether you want a 12.9 inch iPad or an 11 inch iPad.
