no point to upgrade the storage actually. the money is better go for other things..

256gb is sufficient for most i guess.. since one will not take photos/videos with it normally..

Now looking back at the latest pricing, who wpuld have expected just after 5 months from this post

ready for all new price for mac end of this month

Lucky i bought during the period where they were bundling free apple pencil pro with edu discount 2 months ago.

Works out to be current pricing.......no advantage but no loss either

Only teacher can purchase using Education discount? no Discount for alumni?

as long as u have a valid higher education institution extension email, can get also... both students and staff...

Does this mean i'm entitled ?

Of course. It shows successful what. So u can buy educational price for selected apple products like iPad and Mac.

Quite a huge price cut also ya

mostly all apple authorised reseller sell ipad pro m4 start at 4300 in their online store tiktok. Almost 1k different from earlier price

Yes. Huge difference in price.

iPad Air is cheaper even more now.
And the price gap between iPad Air and iPad mini is only rm400 while in lion city the difference between the two is sgd200 = rm656 which is insane.

Does iPad Pro 11 M4 is good enough for daily work task and media consumption. Since price been low and education start price around RM4000 I'm planning to purchase??

How's battery life and screen quality. Need opinion before investing on huge sum.

For all the things u mentioned, it is the best among all iPad models. Dun think there is anything u need to be concerned about.

🤪

Apple store doesn't accept trade in for East Malaysia Bummer, i wanna trade in my iPad mini 6th 64gb for iPad Pro.

As long as you are not the very few users who suffer severe eye strain due to oled pwm dimming, you are fine with ipad pro 11 M4.

I am the very few people who have sensitive eyes. I own the ipad pro M1 for 3 years. When ipad pro M4 launch i was excited to get one and sold my ipad pro M1. The oled screen on ipad pro M4 is beautiful especially watching movies.

However i got migraine and dizziness after staring at the oled screen for more than 15 mins. I have no choice but to sell my ipad pro M4 and bought another ipad pro M2. Now i can enjoy my ipad as much as my previous ipad M1 without eye fatigue.

yes, PMW is known to cause eye strains etc. for some people.

last time when i used iphone X, i had been playing mobile games (a lot of hours per days), sometime, my eyes will turn blurry when looking at things... it will be gone if i do not use the phone not so extensively...

now on the pro max model, maybe becos of the bigger screen, so less obvious, but once in a while, i might experience it again...

OLED is good, but indeed it is not meant for everyone...

actually you just dodge a bullet from buying & continue using OLED iPad Pro M4.

because that particular display tech suffers from BURN IN defect.
It WILL happen, sooner or later. keyword: WILL.

so just stick to LCD MiniLED for now, or wait until Apple decided to use microLED (which they didn't proceed last year, not sure why), which has the advantage of superb image quality of OLED minus the burn in.

i am still rocking my iPad Pro 12.9 M1 5G bought since 2021 by the way. Just thought to have its battery replaced since the Battery Health is like 72% now LOL
