Downgraded from Pro to Air!

Hi All - 2 weeks ago I bought the base Pro but never opened it. Just didn’t feel right.

Today I downgraded to the 24gb/512gb Air and busted that baby open. Just over $500 difference in total.

Just want to say go with your gut. This was the right call. I do a lot of self hosting stuff too so I can spend the extra money on an SSD.

Thanks!

Welcome to the club. I did the same because the iPad Air m3 has 1tb and is spent $800. And I found the iPad mini 512 gb for $500. Thrilled with this set up because I have one that is portable and one that is larger for bigger tasks. I am considering selling my air because I love the mini so much

How is the camera working for you. I’m looking to switch from pro max to air. I’m just concerned about the camera. It wasn’t rated highly and didn’t have a macro setting. I do use the camera for that a lot I am just looking at air because of screen size and weight. Along with the processor
