Hay guys I have 1,000 USD and I am trying to figure out which tablet/semi mobile device to buy. I currently have a first gen iPad mini and it has lasted sence then. I want something to replace that. I want it to be able to be good enough to last. Another 4 years if possible. What I was currently thinking was the iPad Pro 9.7 with the Apple Pencil so I can use it at/for school and to become better at drawing. I just don't like the price point. Any help is welcome. (I'll be active in the comments) thanks.

Yes, but I felt like it would just be lack luster, for when I want to draw or play games.

Well it has a great stylus, almost as good as the Apple Pencil and you can play PC games, and tons of emulators on it

but imo the iPad pro 9.7 is an awesome tablet
