Currently have ipad air (3rd gen). Upgrade to 11" ipad pro or 13" ipad air? Better screen or bigger screen? Like you, I use exclusively for watching movies, tv shows, zoom calls, etc. Have it in a case on my lap when taking the train to commute for work or at home on my desk. Wanted get 13" ipad air for big screen, but pro has better screen and seems more portable.

Why in heavens name would anyone spend so much money on the Pro for these use cases? I just don't get it...

It's $100 difference between 13" Air with 256GB and 11" Pro. $899 for Air vs. $999 for Pro. So it's not like talking about big cost saving with Air (unless get 128GB 13" Air for $799). Wasn't talking about 13" pro which is $1299. For extra $100 get OLED screen and Pro weighs less so could be better suited to those use cases.
