You can get £25 off when you spend £150 or more online at Tesco Direct* using the code TDX-HTNK
12.9-inch iPad Pro (32GB, Wi-Fi only) for £584 when you collect in store at Tesco Direct* (in silver*, grey* or gold*). It was already £120 cheaper than Apple's price of £729, but with the code it's £145 cheaper.

Show me any Apple hardware that is out of date in 2 years? In fact Apple has better longevity than any of its competitors, holds its value better too.

People keep asking what the "Pro" moniker on these devices is for without stopping to think for a second what a "pro" even is. A professional, quite simply, is somebody who earns a living from doing a certain thing.
As a result, the iPad Pro is the perfect device for anybody who can use it as part of their workflow or to earn a living. These will include professional artists or graphic designers who can benefit from the Pencil support that only the "pro" iPads provide.
I've owned both this and the Surface Pro and, for me, the latter is better as I can run certain desktop apps that have no equivalent on iOS. But I can equally see why somebody would want a lightweight device for drawing in, say, Procreate with the sophistication provided by the Apple Pencil. Yes, the Surface Pen has similar functionality but it doesn't have, for instance, shading and tilt support.
Sometimes we just have to use the best tools for the job and it really doesn't matter who makes them. If you don't need the Pencil or simply don't want a huge iPad with 4 GB of RAM, this device isn't for you. But that doesn't mean it's merely a fashion accessory – for some people, they will earn back the cost of this in no time whatsoever.
... no it's actually a newer iPad Pro but it's 9.7 inches instead of 12.9

Depends on what you do with it. I have both sizes and the iPad Pro (12.9) is fantastic for consuming media and browsing on. It barely leaves the house but gets a lot more use than my laptop does.

What do you expect it to do? What a strange comment. It's just an iPad because it is an iPad!
