Thanks just bought 10!
Well, you saved $800 off sticker. Should have bought 100. Would have been an $8,000 savings.

That a device that costs this much can ship with only 64GB of storage should be a criminal act.

I found that a refurb first-gen 11-inch Pro is a better machine than this, except for the processor.

It has a larger, brighter screen with Pro-Motion, FaceID, better camera features, more speakers, and a better price. You also get the same warranty, a new outer case, and a new battery.

The Apple Refurb Store has them for $519.

You're welcome.

Pull the trigger.

I also forgot to mention, that the two machines have the same amount of RAM (4GB).

If you want an even better value, the 10.5 Pro has many of the features of the 11 (Pro motion, 4GB RAM, but with TouchID and Lightning (if you already have the infrastructure for it).

My creative daughter refused to upgrade to the 11 Pro from the 10.5, because she likes the bezel "handles" (as she called them), TouchID, and the same charging port as her iPhone Xr.

Capable ecosystem on the cheap (for Apple, that is). Even the older A-series chips are still beasts.
