I’m considering buying an iPad for my daughter but the bewildering array of models is giving me pause.
She is a biology and art double major and has a 16 inch MacBook Pro already. However, she is an accomplished artist who in the past used Procreate on the original iPad Pro with the original Apple Pencil and turned out beautiful work. A new iPad Pro would be a natural choice but budget constraints make it a Tough but for us.
She would like to use the iPad to draw illustrations for both her majors, as a media device, gaming, and for browsing the web. We also have to buy an Apple Pencil with any iPad we buy. If we like we should buy the second generation pencil with its updated features, but I know that will restrict what iPads I can purchase that will work with it.
So which iPad would you recommend? Should we get a Pro or is a lesser model going to do the job? I am not against buying a used one as long as we can get 3-4 years out of it while she is in school.
Your help and suggestions are appreciated!
