I wish this poll allowed for multiple selections. My use case is about:
- iPad Pro 70%
- iPad mini 30%
iPad Pro. Cause 512GB storage (might need 1TB soon -_-).
Also gaming on iPad Pro is soooo good (mobile game obviously).

I have a M1 12.9 2TB, love it. I use it at home and at work. When I'm in the field I'd love a Mini 6.
I use the 11" Pro. Fantastic iPad
Base 7th gen. Does the basics very well, and that's pretty much all I use it for. Solid bang for the buck.
2020" 12.9 Pro Cellular, 128 GB. Using it mostly for reading eBooks, surfing and taking notes. Bought it for size and display quality mostly, and it's nice to have a backup 4G modem in the rare occurrence my primary ISP goes bust (happens once every few months, nothing too serious).
At work I use the classic iPad but at home it’s all Mini. Never used the pro or Air.
always been a base iPad user, only this year i got me a Pro when we got some extra money and the battery on my base model from 2018 started to show it's first signs of aging.
for my use case, only the base iPad has a good price to "performance" ratio, the others are and were too expensive for my kind of usage as a complementary device.
the base also has the best battery life of all of them and also the best form to be comfortably be held inyour my hands
my next model, should the batteries of my current two go bad, will be a base again. no real use for the others

Nah, it’s the $300 iPad that’s mostly targeted towards education.
The $600 iPad Air is more for those who want newer aesthetics and better specs without going all the way to the $800 iPad Pro.
I use an Air 4 but I only watch Netflix and surf the web on it so it’s complete overkill for what I need. I likely won’t buy another Air and just buy the entry level iPad next time.
I'm using the 12.9-inch iPad Pro together with the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil.
I did hesitate between this one and the Air, but what ultimately convinced me was the Liquid Retina XDR display.

iPadPro - only model with a 12.9” screen. Logitech keyboard case to protect and for typing.
I have a 2018 11” iPad Pro which I love. If I were buying today, I’d probably get the Air, though, now that it sports the new form factor.
12.9” iPadPro 4th Gen (2020), with Logitech case/keyboard. Love it. Also have the pencil…have never used it.

iPad Pro 11 inch and have the pencil and magic keyboard to go along with it. Perfect size for my needs.
