That’s great if it is accurate for you! Apple Watch sleep tracking is getting some nice improvements with the next watchOS update in September, so I hope they start catching up to Whoop, I also find it severely lacking in comparison the way it is implemented right now…

Wow, thanks!

Much appreciated! Thank you! 😇

Still great, yes!

Haha, thanks! I’d like to try out a flagship Samsung phone to compare, or even better, one of the folding phones. In general, I don’t think there’s a lot to be excited for in phones these days, the technology is pretty mature and all changes are very minor, especially year to year. Android vs iOS used to be such a debate, now they’re all very good and it’s a matter of preference.

Definitely, upgrade pricing is ridiculous across all their devices… I don’t think they will though, it keeps their margins where they want them to be. At least we can record ProRes to SSDs on the iPhone so I got away with the smallest storage option there ;)

And it’s wild because they have such a large market. You’d think they could get better bulk pricing on components

The price we pay is not related to the price they pay for storage unfortunately…

I’ve tried a Pixel 8, I prefer iOS, it still feels much more polished and easier to use for me. It’s a matter of preference nowadays, they’re pretty similar in functionality 🤷🏻‍♂️

unfortunately, for professionals and affluent people, iPhone is much easier and safer to use...esp with best accessories available only to iPhones...even app developers prefer developong for iPhones. Even Gmail app has real time notif in iPhones but in android, new email takes hours. It's up to you. No one's gonna stop you in using android as it's your preferences and worls best to your use cases. You can't push your preference to others

@@PSy84 Agreed, good points and good example!

It's very personal. After using a S23 for 8 Months I'm very happy to back with IP 15 pro max. It just works better and easier.... in my opinion :)

Thank you very much!

Of course it was :D I am not really the biggest fan of the „regular pro“ size though, as in my opinion, it‘s a little too big to be a small phone, and to small to be a big phone, if that makes sense. So I decided, if I have to give up the mini form factor anyways, I would rather have a phone that is so big that I actually get more of the benefits of a big phone, like the battery life. That being said, carrying it in my pocket is where it is the most annoying, I really don‘t like always feeling it since it is so heavy and big, whereas the mini, I would sometimes not even notice if I had it in my pocket. Even if you lose out on the trade in for your current phone, I would still suggest you wait, since from your comment, it sounds to me like the 16 Pro should be the perfect phone for you 🙂

Thanks for watching!

I think they will solve for that somehow, for example with the Action Button, it doesn‘t activate if you don‘t press it for a little longer. If you don‘t need a new phone right now and can wait, I would wait until September, since at the very least you will be able to get the 15 Pro Max at a discount if you end up not liking the 16 Pro Max.

Really depends on your usage, how much storage are you using in your current phone?

1tb will keep you from wanting a new iPhone for quite some time

@@StaceyLove-JuiceThe thing is that everyone doesn’t get carrier deals. For those who don’t, you’re talking about an additional $399.99 before tax.

Glad it was helpful!

Agreed! The crazy thing about iPads is they have been fast for a really long time, it just seems like nobody knows yet how to really use that power. I don’t think at this price point this is something you would buy as just a secondary machine. I think it’s sometimes not even about iPadOS being limited, although that is the common story, but more about having to do things in a different way compared to the Mac, and about whether or not someone is willing to do that. Anyways, so far I really like it, but if I end up not being able to cover most of my needs with it, I will sell it in a couple of months and it will have been a fun experiment. Thank you for your kind words!!

@@chris.mueller I'm glad you CAN walk away from this if you want to! This "experiment" could educate you and give you more skills. Knowing how to do tasks on an iPad AND your good, old MacBook will make you more a versatile content creator or artist or anything you want to be. Enjoy your next great adventure! Aloha.

Yes, that was my thinking behind it too :) I‘ll wait for WWDC and then report back around mid June. Thank you for your support! 🫶🏻

Great choice, congrats! Mine is coming tomorrow, I’ll have videos on it as well :)

Glad I could help! Which size did you end up going for?

@@chris.mueller gone for the 12.9 inch size after i spend most of my freetime drawing on it :)

With what?

@@chris.mueller I want whoops straps but it is not available in India

I agree, and I decided to order the 11 inches iPad

Thanks, great to hear that! I also preordered one and am super excited, which size did you go for?

@j.p.7923 Thanks, congrats on the new iPad!

if its m series, 12.9 is miniLED and can be used as reference monitor. The keyboard is also different in 12.9

Just buy the M4

@@j.p.7923 I did. Yesterday I found out that Apple had released a new iPad Pro with better specs and the base 13” model was only slightly more expensive than the 2022 model. So I returned it to an Apple Store and traded in my old iPad Air. With the trade, it was roughly $1,100. I’m really looking forward to the 15th to try it out.

Great move, I am really excited for Wednesday as well 😎

Does it? I’ll test it tonight, thanks for the hint! But still, whenever I don’t get up with my alarm, it at least always ends early, which is kind of annoying…

It only tracks sleep automatically if you have the sleep focus mode setup and active each night. The next version of watchOS is going to track sleep automatically without the focus mode set, but currently it has to be.

Thank you for your feedback, love to hear that! Seems like the smaller one will be better for you, video editing will still work fine if you use Final Cut for iPad, it's very well optimized.

For video editing I have my eyes on LumaFusion, which is significantly cheaper than Final Cut, I think, no I am sure. I also read some reviews on FC and they are not really positive on the price element.

Enjoy! But keep in mind new iPad Pros are soon going to be announced at the Apple Event on May 7...

I think there are some channels focusing on that, I don’t have any expertise in the area unfortunately. Have you checked out Brad Colbow? He does great videos on the iPad for digital artists.

Thanks!

And most of the time cheaper as well…

Hey, no, that's not poissble currently. But honestly, I don't think I would ever want to do that, would you want to use your iPhone keyboard to type on the iPad?

@@chris.mueller to be honest, i do not like the idea of typing on a ipad on the go. a better way would be to just hold your typing work till you are back to your apartment or office & then just use a cheap ass bluetooth keyboard to do the typing work while you are on a desk.

That’s true! I know many people, including my grandparents, that do that, and if you don’t need to be mobile, it’s a good and cheap solution.

Glad it was helpful!

Unfortunately, that doesn’t work :/

Thank you, glad to hear! 🙂 Yes, you can use the external monitor on both and they output the exact same image, so they are the same in that way. Unfortunately, you cannot use the monitor wirelessly on either one, AirPlay is only supported to a Mac and not for all content. 😬

Also, thanks for giving me my first ever CZcams revenue, appreciate it!! 😄

Thanks for letting me know and it was well deserved! I’ve seen at lot of videos about comparing iPad’s and yours was much different and touched on the most important things I needed to hear. And you’re the only one I paid! Keep it up!Thanks again! GBA! 🇺🇸

Thanks for the tip! I heard about Athlytic but never tried it, are you happy with what it provides over Apples own apps?

That makes sense, but don’t you think it should be fine? The iPad Pro 11“ and iPad Air have similar battery sizes and get similar battery life, probably because the ProMotion display has a variable refresh rate and is not always running at 120hz, plus it can go lower than 60hz to conserve battery.

Nice to hear! I feel like most other people seem to love it, but it kind of disappointed me.

Yes I did, but honestly almost never used it, it’s really ease to use the iPhone Hotspot anyways, so I wouldn’t recommend it that much.

Hey Dave, definitely makes much more sense, it’s nice to have something smaller instead of basically the same size!

Congrats, I’m sure you will enjoy it!!!

I think this is definitely up to personal preference. I like wearing watches, so the Apple Watch fulfills that purpose and at the same time, gives me an idea of how much I move in a day. So even if I used the WHOOP, I would still want to wear a watch, which makes it more annoying for me. From the scientific tests I've seen, the Apple Watch is pretty accurate when it comes to heart rate, and the pulse oximetry sensor is not something I am that interested in or use often, so it works perfectly for my use case. But the WHOOP might be better for you, if you don't like to wear watches and like the way they represent the data in their app.

yeah probably just difference in what is important for one. I will look into the Masimo watch, the one that has a dispute with apple right now. They are a pharmatech company and make medical products, so I think their engineering is very good. But I'm still waiting for them to incorporoate more measurements of different kinds as I believe they only have puls oximetry and hydration, heartbeat and steps. And I wanna have some more. Ideal would be one which can also analyse sweat and you can put in information about hormones etc etc@@chris.mueller

For this camera, it's hard to find anything that fits well on it, so I would get something like a DJI Mic (DJI Mic 2 is supposed to come out on Jan 17, so that might be worth waiting for) or Røde Wireless ME or GO II. There is also the Sony ECM-G1, which is at least somewhat small. There are a lot of good mic reviews on youtube, so I would suggest going for the one that sounds best to you, shotgun or lav mics would be best for noisy scenarios.

No, it has around the same battery life.

Thanks, glad to hear that! I don’t have an IG Account for this channel unfortunately…

Great to hear! Congrats!!

Haha, sounds great! I love the Magic Keyboard, just wish the iPad Pro could do more sometimes... 😫

Thanks for sharing!

They are cool too, I tried the Remarkable once, but the iPad is more helpful because you can easily look at lecture slides while taking notes, sync back and forth with your Mac, etc.

Glad to hear! 🙂
