I disagree that the Air is a better value than the Pro. The base model Air only has 64GB of storage, which is simply too little these days. Apple doesn't offer a 128GB sweet spot, instead forcing users to pay a whopping $150 premium for 256GB of storage they will never use.

So if you're already willing to pay for the 256GB Air, I think it's a no brainer to add an additional $50 for a 128GB Pro with thinner bezels, ProMotion, better cameras, better speakers, FaceTime, and faster performance (from the GPU).

Exactly my own thought process, and why I purchased a new 11" iPad Pro just 2 months ago.

Not to mention the other advantages of the Pro - better camera (with flash), screen technology, Face ID.
