My daughter (12) wants an iPad pro for drawing? Any advice on which model etc?

    I've never had apple products before but the iPad pro gets very good reviews especially the 12.9 inch model.
    They are however very expensive so it will have to be second hand. Even then with the apple pencil it will cost £300-£400.
    Any advice/suggestions appreciated.

    You don't have to go pro for it, unless she's an incredible artist.

    My kids have 32GB regular iPads with the "Crayon" and procreate & some of the stuff they create is incredible.

    Think they're about €350 new. Bought the crayons new in the us & they were $45 each

    Thanks, that's good to hear.
    Do you mind if I ask what size iPad your kids have?

    It's just the regular one - 9.7". Version 6. There's a newer one out now that's slightly bigger

    Actually if you could tell me the model/gen as well that would be great.

    Keep an eye on the Apple refurb store where you can pick them up a good bit cheaper.
