Hi all. I currently have an iPad (9th gen) and looking to upgrade to a larger-screened model, either the new iPad Air 13" 128 GB or a refurbished 12.9-inch iPad Pro 256GB (5th Generation).
I use them as consumption devices for the standard things like streaming media, web browsing, social media, etc. The ability to use the Pro to connect to my monitor for light word processing and PDF annotations is appealing. I also like the addition of Face ID on the Pro vs. Touch ID on the iPad Air.
I was ready to purchase the new Air, but the specs of a refurbished 12.9-inch iPad Pro 256GB (5th Generation) for almost the same price as the Air make it very appealing.
Since it's a three-year old model, thoughts on its longevity for at least 3-4 years of use?
