Hi All!

 

Sorry for the perhaps remedial question, but, do I really need the iPad Air or Pro for Illustrator to perform 

properly? 

Would the 9 or 10 be able to handle it? I'm on a 6 right now and am upgrading shortly.  

Thanks in advance!

If you get the Air version of the iPad I would recommend getting the version with 256GB of storage rather than the 64GB base model. The Apple Pencil is a must-have accessory. The 2nd-gen Apple Pencil is compatible with the current version of the iPad Air. Still, if your budget allows for it I'd recommend getting a 12.9" model iPad Pro. It has a beautfiul Liquid Retina XDR screen with a wider color display than the smaller models. There's more storage options (up to 2TB).
