A lawyer this side. I’m looking for a tablet for strictly work purposes. My usage will mainly include using, word, PowerPoint, Excel, opening several documents, mainly PDFs at once, using Microsoft Outlook teams and working on several tabs in a browser. I have following three options:

1. Buy Ipad Air M4 in Amazon sale.
2. Buy 4.5 year old ipad pro m1 from one of my trusted sources for 30k.
3. Buy an android tab like Xiaomi Pad 8 for around 33k.

I am confused between all above options and the fact that if at all I go for a new ipad, can Ipad A16 fulfill my requirements?

Also want to confirm if ipads have a pc mode like android tablets.

Requesting the community to guide me on the most cost effective option or any other option.
