Looking to upgrade your travel tech? For a limited time, you can get the latest generation iPad Pro with 1TB of storage for up to $400 off at Amazon.

Why the iPad Pro is the Ultimate Travel Tablet

There is no shortage of travel-friendly tablets and laptops on the market. However, if there’s one standout device, it’s the latest generation iPad Pro: light and compact while also offering computing power comparable to the 15-inch MacBook. Here are some other travel-friendly features of the iPad Pro:

  • Up to 10 hours of battery life
  • 12 MP rear-facing camera with 4k video-capability
  • 7 MP front-facing camera ideal for video chatting
  • USB-C connectivity
  • Retina display
  • Optional keyboard and Apple Pencil

The iPad Pro allows users to download content from Netflix — something MacBook users are unable to do — making it a great device for travelers who find themselves stuck on IFE-less aircraft.

All iPad Pro Sale Prices:

In addition to all 11-inch models, the 12-inch model and all mobile network-compatible models are also available at a discount.

It’s also worth noting that Google Fi now offers Apple iPad Pro compatibility. This means that when you buy an unlocked mobile network-compatible iPad Pro, you can add the device to a Google Fi plan. Google Fi is a fantastic mobile network for travelers as it offers free data roaming in up to 200 countries. Take a look at TPG’s latest coverage of Google Fi to learn more.
