Is it worth it to get a refurbished 2020 iPad Pro from Apple Store for 33% cheaper price vs a brand new iPad Pro M2?

This is entirely subjective. What certain features are worth is entirely dependent on you.

Personally, I’m inclined to stick to either M1 or M2 iPP at current prices for longevity. Considering how annoying 4GB RAM has gotten, I don’t think 6GB will fare well after 2+ more years of firmware updates.

For the 11” size, I also greatly appreciate the More Space display zoom option only available on M1 and above.

Personally, I think getting the new M2 would be better because Apple is going to add more features to the M series chips according to leaks. Apple is also planning on pushing the M chip even more as well.

Why not wait a little longer until M1 refurbished available? 2020 is a bit old and still use old CPU, but again, it’s all subject to your needs.
