Actually I think this is a pretty nice offering for households (like mine). Kids and a lot of people don't care about color precision and lamination. We use a 9th gen, daughter uses procreate on it which works totally fine. Storage increase makes the thing a lot more attractive, in fact the larger storage of my ipad pro m1 is for me the biggest differentiator; not the lamination, speakers, 120hz or thinness. RAM is another thing, if it really has 6gb then the thing is near perfect for us.
