I have the 2015 iPad Pro 12.9 128gb. I'm giving my 10.5 inch 64gb pro to my wife. Currently I'm using under 40gb. With iCloud storage and lightning or usb c devices. I always have enough storage. If I travel out of town. I download movies using iTunes or a third party app. Then take them off or out when I return home. I would of loved to get the 128gb. But Apple chose a more profitable storage line up for Apple. Not for the customer. I'm just glad they don't do 16gb and 32gb any more that was awful.
 
I went with 256. Was going to get 64gb but I felt weird spending over 1k on something with only 64gb

I like to have a lot of movies, tv shows, and music downloaded to my iPad when I travel. So 256gb was the way to go.

128gb base model would have been perfect

Think I’m in this boat. Spending $1150 for a 64gb iPad is a kick in the gut. For $150 more, I feel a 256 is a better purchase. I’m financing through Tmobile in which it’s $30 a month. My first gen iPad Pro 12.9 3 years later is still amazing so I anticipate keeping this new one for the next 3 years.

Typical Apple not doing a 128 when the entire MacBook lineup is base 128.

Launch day delivery 512gb cancelled, 1TB ordered, delivery so far in the future I can’t remember XD

Maybe by Xmas?

Edit: After posting this I checked. It was previously Nov 26 - Dec 3rd. It’s moved up to Nov 16 - Nov 23 which is pleasing!

I have 236 available on my 256 iPhone X so I will be going with 256 on the 11” iPad Pro. I could probably get away with 64 however I might download some magazines on the iPad. I stream and use iCloud so I think I’ll have plenty of room with the 256.
 
1TB loaded to the brim with "optimized for mobile" movies from my Plex Library.

My own personal Netflix for airplanes.

I purchased the 256GB since my wife will be using the 12.9 as a replacement for her MacBook Pro. I'm avoiding the butterfly keyboard like the plague.

Snap..... I too have the 2015 128gb 12.9” which has 30gb free. So, the new 12.9 wifi only will be the 256gb model which will give me around 150gb to add new content as and when.

I use to pack my 12.9 128gb storage close to 100gb. But when I enabled iCloud storage to delete apps I’m not using and songs I don’t listen to frequently. My storage use dropped dramatically. I also notice at had double copies of photos from switching from iPhoto to the new photo app. I only load a bunch of movies when I’m going out of town.
