All in all, with tablets' current scene, Android is more-less completely dead. There are some very cheap ones and those are fine for basic stuff like emails, IM etc. But for gaming there are options with higher price and less support (be it official or not), and even worse app optimization, than 2017 and 2018 iPads. Or they're just overheating like mad because of fetishizing slimness for no reason at all. One solid exception is the Lenovo Tab 4 8 Plus. Plus is mandatory because it's much, much better and faster than the non-Plus model. However, it's near the 2017 iPad's price and it's still inferior in every aspect except the speakers. For ~230€ that thing is the best tablet out there tho.

Nothing is perfect, far from it, but as a hardcore Android guy (my only previous iOS device was the good old iPhone 5S) - that new iPad is extremely good value.

iPad Pro? Hell no, lol. At least not with iOS. It's trying to land into the Surface Pro territory but it's nowhere near it simply because the Surface Pro is running a full OS, not just mobile OS. For its (iPad Pro) cost you can get like 20-30% less performance (which you won't feel anywhere except in rendering videos or so) in iPad for (more than) half the price. Sure, both cameras are better on Pro, and speakers (much), and the screen (not THAT much) but it's not worth it 2x more, definitely. Ok, you've talked me into it. I'll buy a new iPad. ☺

I'll still have all my old Android's for tossing out the window when I get pi$$ed.
