Cyber Monday iPad deals abound, but no, you don't really need to buy that discounted iPad Pro that still costs nearly $1,000.
The Best iPad DealThe iPad A16 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) arrived early this year and is the only device in Apple's lineup that doesn't support Apple Intelligence.
However, early rumors suggest that Apple is readying a 12th-gen iPad in the first few months of 2026, and expect to see Apple Intelligence support.
This iPad recently got a whole lot more versatile with the iPadOS 26 update, which adds windowing features, turning the iPad experience into a Mac.
If you specifically want an iPad for drawing, I suggest upgrading to the iPad Mini, Air, or iPad Pro.
