Upgrade from Base M4 with cellular to 1tb M4 with cellular and Nano for $350
Hi,
So - I have an opportunity to upgrade from a base 11 inch M4 256 gb + cellular to a new open box 11 inch M4 1tb wifi +cellular with nano screen for 350 usd which will include selling my ipad. Looking at this upgrade for reasons being future proofing tech as i hold onto my iPads for a long time. Last ipad was a PP that I had since 2018, and i think it will be less cost to upgrade rather than buying a base 2 iterations from now. I’m also looking to be able to put AppleCare on this device (I’ll send it back if I’m not able to) as my current one doesn’t have it so I use it less when out and about because of it whereas previous devices with AppleCare I used everywhere. Because I have the base M4 - I already have the Smart Folio, Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil so no additional accessories required.
It’s a personal device that I use sometimes for work (but have a work laptop), photo and video editing (I’m learning at this stage so not heavy), media consumption, web browsing. Also working tonnes with AI for work and personal
At this stage there aren’t any real limitations with my ipad other than AI and video editing taking a while to process and produce results - I haven’t run into any issues/barriers otherwise. It’s a want not a need at this point, and moreso for futureproofing
I’m in Australia, so we don’t get the deals that you do in the US
What do you think - upgrade for that cost for longevity worth it?
