While most of us would love to take our laptops everywhere, even the most portable options can feel like a burden when you're constantly on the move or just trying to keep things simple. Tablets can help deliver a decent level of performance without the added weight and bulk, and if you have been considering making the switch, there’s never been a better time. Today, you can get your hands on the 11-inch iPad Pro (4th Generation) with the powerful M2 chip for an incredible $500 off.
For $799, you get an 11-inch Liquid Retina display that offers ProMotion, True Tone and P3 wide color to make everything from watching a show to sketching with an Apple Pencil feel vibrant and real. Speaking of the Apple Pencil, the new hover experience lets you interact with the screen even before touching it, making it easy to bring your creative ideas to life.

While the device at first might look quite similar to its predecessor, there are quite a few significant power upgrades under the hood. The most notable of these is the M2 processor, which delivers a substantial improvement in performance compared to the previous M1 chip. You’ll enjoy a 15% increase in CPU speed and a 35% boost in graphics performance, which translates into a smoother and more responsive experience overall.
Add in the advanced camera system -- a 12MP Wide camera, a 10MP Ultra Wide back camera and a LiDAR Scanner -- and you've got a device that does a great job considering the everyday needs of most users. Let’s also not forget the impressive 512GB of storage capacity and Wi-Fi 6E capability, which together ensure that your iPad Pro can handle all your data needs with ease.
Overall, the blend of power, performance and portability the model offers at this price is hard to match. The deal, however, is only going to last till the end of the day today, so if you’ve been thinking about making the switch or upgrading your current device, now is the time to act. There are quite a few more Labor Day Apple deals apart from this one that you might want to check out as well.
