M1 iPad Pro
What's the deal? Take up to 52 percent off M1 iPad Pro
Woot this week opened up a major sale on the previous generation M1 iPad Pro, providing as much as 52 percent off select tablets. Prices start at $659.99 for 11-inch (22 percent off) and at $859.99 for 12.9-inch (22 percent off), and include both Wi-Fi and cellular models. All tablets in this sale are in new condition and include a one year Apple warranty.
Amazon is still discounting the AirPods Pro 2 to their all-time low price of $199.00 as we end the week. This is $50 in savings on the earphones and the most consistent deal that we've tracked in 2023.
Amazon has $99 off the M1 iPad Air, and both 64GB and 256GB Wi-Fi models are on sale. You can also get the cellular versions of the tablet for as much as $119 off this week.

I’d rather get the M1 iPad Pro from Apple refurbished for cheaper. Besides, what is this 50% off? The price from when it was released? False advertising if you ask me.

This seems like a very good deal, but I don't know what I'd do with an iPad. The MacBooks seems a lot more convenient with the built-in keyboard that also serves as a stand.

It does say "up to 50% off" which OneBar addresses which model gets it.
Just curious why you would prefer the refurb over a brand new model including a folio for only $20 more.. what am I missing?
$30 is $30 for the iPad itself (base storage). Plus, refurbs (from Apple) are indistinguishable from new. I personally wouldn’t spend anything on a folio but that’s just me.
New is indistinguishable from new. Why would refurbs from Apple be better than new?
EDIT: Oh you're saying you can get the Apple refurb cheaper? Ok that makes sense... but not true for the higher storage models like 2TB as others have pointed out.
