I bought this iPad about a month ago.
I use it every day for graphic design, work, organization, video editing, and media consumption.
The tablet itself is excellent and well worth the money!
It has completely replaced my laptop, and now I only work from this tablet.
The upgrade to 256GB instead of the basic 64GB model is good, especially if you are interested in using it for similar purposes.
Due to the volume and size of the files I work with, 256GB is necessary.
For academic purposes and reading, the basic model is very good, and it also accepts USB sticks (just keep in mind that it has a USB-C port, so you will need an adapter).
For media consumption, it is exceptional with amazing resolution and powerful speakers.
It supports 4K and is easy to connect to AirPlay to play videos on Apple TV.
If you are looking for a tablet to replace your laptop for school and university work, I am very satisfied, although keep in mind that you will need to spend an additional 200€ for the keyboard. The multitasking is quite good, allowing you to have two apps open simultaneously, and it is fast enough to avoid delays.
However, although it is good for the above tasks, I would recommend choosing a laptop, either from Apple or another brand.
It does the job exceptionally well, but I don't think it's worth the 1000+€ you would have to spend on this tablet.
If money is not an issue, I highly recommend it.
If you are looking for something more, like graphic design or drawing, or to engage in digital design alongside reading and media consumption, I couldn't recommend it more.
It is amazing for this type of work, with a very good price, although you will need to purchase the Apple Pencil gen2.
For 1000€, it is outstanding and well worth the cost. It surpasses any competition in my opinion.
Keep in mind that you will need to spend an additional 100€ for apps, but other than that, I highly recommend it!
