For a limited time, Best Buy is taking up to $200 off all iPad Pro tablets (opens in new tab). That includes the now-retired iPad Pro 9.7-inch Tablet and the Editors’ Choice iPad Pro 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch tablets. The deal is valid on Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi/cellular models, although there is more inventory of the former. Buy on Best Buy (opens in new tab) In our lab tests, the iPad Pro 10.5-inch (now $549.99; $100 off) tablet turned in performance scores so high that they blew away laptops like the XPS 13, HP Spectre, and Apple’s own 12-inch MacBook. Its 14-hour battery life is also an impressive feature that makes it the ultimate travel buddy. Meanwhile, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro (now $699.99; $100 off) is as close to a laptop killer as you’ll ever get. Its super-hi-res 2732 x 2048 display is the best we’ve seen on any tablet and its 120-Hz refresh rate offers some of the smoothest scrolling we’ve seen on a mobile device. You get about 12 hours of battery life, which is substantially longer than the 8:51 tablet average. The 9.7-inch iPad Pro (now $499.99; $200 off), while no longer a part of Apple’s official lineup, is an excellent entry-level “pro” tablet, which still delivers excellent performance in a more compact size. Just keep in mind it uses the older A9X CPU, whereas both the 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch tablets use Apple’s new A10X Fusion CPU. Regardless which tablet you opt for, this is one of the best iPad Pro deals we’ve seen.
