What iPad Pro storage size should you get: 32 GB vs. 128 GB?

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/what-ipad-pro-storage-size-should-you-get-32-gb-vs-128-gb' title="What iPad Pro storage size should you get: 32 GB vs. 128 GB?"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_blw/public/field/image/2015/09/ipad-pro-and-stylus-hero-pencil-apple.jpg?itok=Je5OJo3q' />[/url]</p> <p class="intro">How to pick the perfect iPad Pro storage size for you.</p> <p>The iPad Pro comes with 32 GB or 128 GB of storage. Picking between them can be tough, especially since cost increases along with size, and as apps and content get bigger, operating systems are getting more efficient. The last thing you want to do is pay for storage you don't need... aside from running out of storage when you need it most. So, how much iPad Pro storage is enough?</p> <!--break--> <h2>Price per gigabyte breakdowns</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/what-ipad-pro-storage-size-should-you-get-32-gb-vs-128-gb' title="What iPad Pro storage size should you get: 32 GB vs. 128 GB?"><img src='?itok=vFqkyCts' />[/url]</p> <p>The iPad has always been sold at different price points based on the amount of storage capacity it contains. Apple could choose to segment on any spec, but storage size is easy for everyone to understand. More buys you more.</p> <p>iPad Pro breaks down as follows:</p> <ul><li>32 GB - $799 or $24.97 per gigabyte.</li> <li>128 GB - $949 or $7.41 per gigabyte.</li> </ul><p>So, while the 32 GB for iPad Pro is the least expensive, the 128 GB model is the best bang for the buck. If price is a major concern, going from 32 GB to 128 GB quadruples your storage for just $150.</p> <h2>Local vs. Cloud storage</h2> <p>Apple's iCloud gives you free, unlimited storage for all your iTunes stuff. That includes iBooks, music, movies, TV shows, and apps. You also get 5 GB of additional storage for backups, data, and the new iCloud Photo Library and iCloud Music Library services that keep your personal pictures, videos, and Apple Music in the cloud. You can purchase more iCloud storage if you need it, and Apple has dropped the prices on all the paid tiers:</p> <ul><li>5 GB - Free</li> <li>50 GB - $0.99/month</li> <li>200 GB - $2.99/month</li> <li>1TB - $9.99/month</li> </ul><p>iCloud integrates with iOS and OS X, has an iCloud Drive app in iOS 9, and otherwise keeps all your stuff connected and collected. Thanks to some really intelligent nearline management, iCloud can help make sure you're recent and frequently accessed content is instantly available, and your older and infrequently accessed content is only a tap and a download away when you need it.</p> <p>What's more, Apple is no slicing out parts of apps and games that aren't needed for your iPad—like iPhone interface elements and older processor code, and staging resources on-demand so you only store what you're actually using or about to be using.</p> <p>If you prefer other solutions, there's also built-in storage provider support for Dropbox, One Drive, Google Drive, and more.</p> <p>The cloud still can't take the place of lots of on-device storage—you can't shoot 1080p video straight to the cloud, for example—but it can help you get the most of what you have.</p> <h2>Who should get a 32 GB iPad Pro?</h2> <p>If you stream more than you store, if you work in an office, studio, or classroom where most of the content is kept on the network, or if your screen is otherwise just a thin client for apps and the web, you'll likely be fine with 32 GB.</p> <p>For most people, however, more storage won't just be nice-to-have, it'll be must-have.</p> <h2>Who should get a 128 GB iPad Pro?</h2> <p>If you don't want to have to depend on network access, if you want to keep a lot of media, apps, and games local, if you intend to work on multiple 4K streams or other high-capacity content, you'll want 128 GB.</p> <p>In other words, if you want all the things available all the time, you'll need all the storage.</p> <h2>Still undecided?</h2> <p>If you're still not sure what storage size to get, jump into our iPad discussion forums and the best community in mobile will happily help you out!</p> <p>Also, remember, in most places you'll have time to try out your new iPad Pro and return it if you don't like it. So, make sure, as soon as possible, you put it through realistic paces. Load up all the apps and games you want with you, load up your movies and TV shows, go out and take some photos and shoot some video. Give it a complete and thorough workout. If it feels like you got too much storage or too little, then take your iPad back and exchange it for one that better suits your needs.</p> <div class="devicebox"> <h3>iPad Pro</h3> <div class="video"><div class="video_iframe"><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8TI4_O-zckM?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;controls=2&amp;autohide=1&amp;showinfo=0" width="627" height="353" class="video-filter video-youtube vf-8ti4ozckm" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div></div> <!--/video--> <ul><li>iPad Pro preview</li> <li>iPad Pro news</li> <li>iPad Pro discussion</li> <li>iPad Pro accessories</li> <li>Where to buy: Apple</li> </ul></div> <div> <style> <!--/*--><![CDATA[/* ><!--*/ <!--/*--><![CDATA[/* ><!--*/ <!--/*--><![CDATA[/* ><!--*/ .devicebox { background-color: #5CB8DB; border: 1px solid #E2E9EB; float: right; display: block; margin: 0 0px 10px 10px; max-width: 350px; overflow: hidden; width: 50%; } .devicebox h3 { background: #8D98BD; font-family: "camptonmedium",sans-serif; font-size: 20px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; padding: 0; text-align: center; } .devicebox h3 a { display: block; line-height: 30px; padding: 0 10px; } .devicebox h3 a:hover { background: #7e88aa; text-decoration: none; } .devicebox .video { margin: auto; } .devicebox p, .entry-content .devicebox p > img, .devicebox img { margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px; } div .devicebox *, div .devicebox li, div .devicebox a:active, div .devicebox a:hover, div .devicebox a:link, div .devicebox a:visited { color: #fff; } .devicebox a:hover { text-decoration: underline; } .devicebox p, .devicebox ul li, .devicebox ol li { font-size: 16px; padding: initial; } .devicebox ul { margin: 0; padding: 0.5em 1em 1em 30px; } .devicebox ul li { display: list-item; line-height: 24px; list-style: disc outside none; } .devicebox ul li:before { display: none; } .devicebox p ~ p { padding: 0px 15px 15px; line-height: 1.25; } .devicebox p:first-of-type + p { padding: 15px; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox { float: none; margin: 0 auto 30px; max-width: 700px; min-height: 225px; position: relative; width: 100%; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox .video, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox .video { bottom: 0px; left: 50%; position: absolute; right: 0px; top: 30px; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox .video_iframe, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox .video_iframe { height: 100%; padding: 0px; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox h3 + p { bottom: 0; left: 50%; overflow: hidden; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 30px; width: 50% } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p img, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox h3 + p img { height: 100%; width: auto; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox ul, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox ul, div *:last-of-type + .devicebox p, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox p { width: 43%; } @media all and (max-width: 500px) { .devicebox { float: none; margin: 0 0 30px; max-width: 100%; width: 100%; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox .video, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox .video { left: 0; position: relative; top: 0; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox .video_iframe, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox .video_iframe { padding-bottom: 56.25%; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox h3 + p { left: 0; position: relative; top: 0; width: 100%; } div *:last-of-type + .devicebox ul, div *:last-of-type + div ~ .devicebox ul { width: auto; } } /*--><!]]]]]]><![CDATA[><![CDATA[>*/ /*--><!]]]]><![CDATA[>*/ /*--><!]]>*/ </style></div> </div></div></div><br clear='all'/>
