What with it being Prime Day, Target Days, BestBuy Flash Sale, etc, I came across a great deal for the iPad Pro 11" 256gb version at $749 and I'm wondering how does it compare to the new base model Macbook Pro 13" 8gb/128gb model. I have an older 2015 base Macbook Pro 13" 8gb/128gb and while it gets the job done I was looking for something new, faster, and acompanying. So I wonder what's a better deal? Should I go for the iPad Pro while it's at it's current lowest and maybe save for a better spec'd (more HD or more ram) Macbook Pro or heck wait even longer OR should I just go with the 2019 base model now.

Obviously if I get the iPad, I'd keep my old Macbook Pro and if I got the new Macbook Pro I'd either sell it or use it as a daily transport laptop. I know I know there's many variables but I'm still wondering between the two of 'em, what's the better longer bet?

Tanks for any thoughts on this!
