just curious what you do with all those storages...

I'm currently on 64 and have about 20g left.. Apps+some music. No videos since I have unlimited data and plex to stream them.

I realized its a different lifestyle when I switched from 16 to 64, as well as getting the unlimited data. So maybe there's also a different way of using 128g iPads that I haven't realized?
 
Apps, movies, pictures, music, and camera videos. I filled my last iPad 64 all the way up. Never again. 128gb from now on on everything. I would buy a 250gb if they offered one.

Video.

You talk about how you have unlimited data and can stream it.

For me, most of the time, I have no signal let alone data so streaming is a no go. Only way to do it is local storage or external storage. Definitely leave my iPad topped full with video, here I could never rely on streaming alone.

Plenty of apps and pics but also I like to download on Amazon prime so I know I can download as much as I like even if it's not needed

As I know I will take even more pics going forward

I have loads of space currently but least I don't need to ever worry about space
 
I have 61GB used, 53 GB available. The big hitters are:
Plenty of apps (25GB)
Photos (5GB)
A few movies (8GB)
Couple hundred Kindle books (couple of GB)
Audible books (4GB)
Several Nook-hosted magazines (several GB)
iBooks (couple of GB)
I could cull things but don't feel the need yet - that's the great advantage to having a lot of storage.
 
Tons of music, apps, and movies for me to watch while I'm traveling. I don't have unlimited data, nor do I have the patience to download multi-gig files over a slow/capped wifi at a hotel... I only have about 8gb free currently lol.
 
12K pictures, 3.5K songs, tons of games. XCom is over 3GB. A couple of movies and TV shows. And I still have some room left. Awesome.
 
I have 16 GB free on my iPad Air 2. Most of it is filled with to shows and movies (75GB). The rest is apps and photos. I don't keep music on my iPads.
 
The iPad Pro i plan on getting will have photo's, apps, documents sketch's and probably the odd movie and TV series. I'm currently thinking of investing in the 50GB for £0.79 if i go over with the 128GB iPad Pro storage.
 
Mostly 720p video, movies and TV shows. Total duration of my longest set of flights is a little over 24 hours. With 128Gb, I have nearly 44 hours of High Profile 4.1, x264, 720p content. That gives me a lot of variety in my content.
 
If I am going to buy an iPad Air 128GB I might want to put 1,200 apps on it. No video or music they are on wifi mobile hard drive. Pictures are on iCloud.
 
Mine fills up quickly before a vacation or business trip. Mostly 720p movies/TV shows, comics, and some audio.
