At the most general level, it does run a 2732-by-2048-pixel display at perfectly smooth 120 hz, and that looks great with the Pencil. But I'd give that up to save a couple hundred bucks. The main bummer with the base iPad display is that it's still using sRGB, while Apple has been using P3 gamut pretty much everywhere else since the iPhone 7. Not sure if I'd downgrade to that one, but I'd be fine with a 12.9" iPad Air.
