Apple shoppers rush for newest iPad Pro as Sky flogs for £27 a month

Apple fans who have recently been paid and fancy a little treat might be in luck. For a limited time, Sky is selling Apple's best iPad Pro for £27 a month.

The newest device is Apple's best tablet on the market - and it's now being offered up to allow shoppers to spread the cost. The iPad Pro comes with the powerful Apple M4 chip, a breakthrough tandem OLED display and of course, all-day battery life.

Sky currently has the 11-inch version for £27 a month and for shoppers who want to get a bigger screen and more storage, the 13-inch screen is currently £37 a month. One word of warning is that each of these tablets are on a 48-month contract - but Sky allows shoppers to trade in within 36 months of the contract ending.

Apple fans can choose to lower the contract if they don't fancy paying for that long - but be prepared to pay more per month.

But for shoppers who don't care about the Apple ecosystem, there's alternatives to go for. Shoppers could pick up the Samsung Galaxy S9 FE for £449, complete with a free S Pen. Alternatively, for £17 a month, Apple fans can getthe 11-inch iPad Air device with the new M3 chip.

And for shoppers wondering if the Apple iPad Pro is worth it, trust us when we say that it is definitely worth picking up. So much so our tech reviewers gave it almost full stars when it was reviewed.

Tech editor Dave Snelling at the time wrote: "There's simply no denying that the new iPad Pro remains the best tablet you can buy. The new slimline design is simply stunning, the M4 processor is ludicrously powerful and the upgraded OLED screen is a thing of absolute beauty.

"It's a total joy to use, especially with Apple fixing a number of issues found on the older models such as the front-facing camera placement and boost to the base-level storage. The Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard accessories are also improved, and you get other first-rate features, including amazing speakers, 5G connectivity, fast Wi-Fi and a decent rear camera.

"It's very hard to knock the iPad Pro; in fact, it's pretty much perfect."

It wasn't all perfect however as Dave did have some problems with the device. He added: "The two problems here are the price and if you actually need all that power. There's now that upgraded M2 Air on sale from £599 or you could simply buy the 10th Gen model at the new price of £349. These are both excellent devices that do much the same thing as the Pro but without making such a big dent in your bank balance.

"That said, if you want the ultimate iPad and aren't put off by the price then you really aren't going to find anything better than the 2024 Pro. It's a beauty and a beast - we absolutely love it."
