- Today lets unboxing the M4 iPad Pro, this looks like a stunning piece of technology. The only problem is that all this power, doesn't really have anywhere to go.
So lets see what comes in the box and if its any good!
I Bought the ""Cheapest™"" M4 iPad Pro...should you?
• I Bought the ""Cheapes... - Hry
Got mine today, went 512 with cellular and very happy so far, screen is amazing!
Can u use zbrush on it ?
I know it’s your money and your life, but you spent a lot of money, that iPad better be worth and make sure you use it till it no longer receives updates which is around 7-8 years
Woo! I went 1TB with cellular, wanted the 10 core and 16GB RAM.

@@johannadrisdale413 LUCKKKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY i wish i could get one man i have an ipad air 1st gen
I watch your videos mostly because you’re a cool azz dude. Love your enthusiasm for everything.
He’s also hot af
Thanks for posting! I’m looking at buying this so the timing is perfect
It's light. It's bright. However, it's still a tablet, not a MacBook Pro. I've never used an iPad as a camera. My iPad Air 4 and iPad Mini 6 still does 100% of what an iPad Pro would do.
It’s all silver including that main camera area which looks ugly though 😢
Not happy with that silver color this time
They gonna make the OS more desktop like ig
That’s the version I got today and loving it so far.
Got my 13" Black Pro today (base model). Love it!!!! The screen is incredible. The lighter weight helps a Bunch. I wish they would put this OLED in the Mini !
Excellent rant, so glad you kept it
I’d like to see if the Apple Pencil (2nd gen) can attach well (not charge) to the new iPad Pro 🙏🏻
Watching this on my M4 iPad Pro 11”
I’m rocking the M1 Air I bought a few weeks ago, it still does everything the most expensive iPad Pro can do.
The rear camera is actually really good 💯
Where is the mouse pad from if you don’t mind kind sir
I love to backpack too! Maybe I’ll catch you on the trail sometime. Nice review, as always. But I LOVE my MacBook Pro and I’ll never replace it with an iPad only.
Will you ever review the Vision Pro?
Hey how come you didn’t get a black braided cable in your box? I thought all 13 inch M4 did?
Great and informative review! I don't need to upgrade, but I probably will ;)
Got the 11 inch 256GB Pro but over here in Europe there is no charger in the box, however I did get a braided dark Grey cable with my iPad.
I've been waiting for the reviews to start coming in. I love my iPads! I still have my very first one, that has been used be a bunch of my grandchildren! I have had all the pro models and currently have a 2020 pro (with the Magic Keyboard, which is expensive, but worth every penny in my mind), which still works perfectly. I also had a 12.9" pro for awhile, but ended up returning it because it seemed too big. I might try it again. Let's do some testing!
Yay may favorite reviewer is here. I wonder why I was not seeing Everyday Dad in my suggestions of iPad reviews. Only to realized I have not subscribed yet. Haha
Is it bad that I’m more interested on the desk pad, than iPad?
do your arms feel tired after holding it to read for 30 minutes?
It's a BEAUTIFUL RANT. I listened to it because i feel the same way. Yes, all companies held feature to add in the future products. I use both Apple and Samsung.
I’m completely with you on that “Dex like” option on an iPad!!! I have never used a MacBook to its fully potential. For me, I used a MacBook for content consumption, a little bit of word processing type stuff, web surfing, and very light video editing. In all honesty, I have no laptop that I use daily. My lone computing device is a 2018 12.9 inch IPad Pro. If I had the option of hooking it up to a bigger monitor without it mirroring the iPad display, I’d have no need to upgrade until it no longer supports the latest OS.
I got the 11inch version with the Magic Keyboard and the Pencil pro and cant wait for them to arrive
Title should be cheapest 13 iPad Pro as the 11 Inch 256 iPad Pro is the cheapest…..
The oled display itself makes it a worthy upgrade
that kinda *is* the cheapest ipad for the 13 inch version
Actually The cheapest iPad pro is the 11 inch 256GBs wifi only, but i still enjoy the video lol 😆
Yes had to click away so fast I want 11 inch
I like your Apple Pencil Pro combined unboxing and crash test 🤣
I mostly use my iPad Pro 12.9" 3rd gen for going on property walks with clients. I take notes and photos which I later use for my rendering and proposal packages. The only thing that has been real inconvenient is the camera. I have to stand so far back to get what I need into the photo. I hadn't purchased the M1 or M2 because I wasn't ready, so I've been waiting for the new. Behold, it finally came out and they removed the wide angle camera. So now I am looking to purchase the M2 version. Btw, love your videos!! Thank you.
I’m curious to see if Microsoft or Apple will be the first to create a streamlined tablet/PC workflow on one device. I have a surface, iPad, and Mac each serving a unique purpose.
Besides Tablet vs Laptop : Would a $699 (256gb) M1 Macbook Air out perform any iPad?
You looked like a kid on Christmas morning in the opening shot. :)
Is apple pencil pro Compatible with iPad Pro M2?
I actually bought my first iPad Pro. Got the 11 inch base. Loving it so far. I agree with you, if they can have MacOS on iPad, that would make me want to buy the entire set up.
A comparison with the tab S9 would be awesome!
Tab s9 is terrible
@@lewissheridan8890lol, its not
@@lewissheridan8890okay sheep
Why is the Samsung Tab S9 terrible for you? Please be more specific.
Everyday Dad, hi. Pls check transfer speed of main usb-c cable., is it 2.0 3.0 3.1 or mb it thunderbolt?
I’d want the 13” w a keyboard so like.. $1700 or something?? Crazy. The iPad Air 13” got more appealing after specing out on Apples site. Gimped display but whatever. Save like $500
The lack of pro motion is a the real dealbreaker. Went on my mom’s phone today and a standard screen is mad stuttery when scrolling
@@martin_woodcause we’re spoilt by it, you have to keep using it until you get used to 60 hertz
It's even more crazy in Norway. The 13 starts at 18500 NOK that's equal to 1700 USD without the keyboard
Should I still use a screen protector if I buy the iPad with the nano texture?
Isn't the nano texture similar to matte? If so just buy an actual matte screen protector (significantly cheaper than this nano texture marketing bullshit) and save that money spent on the nano texture (and extra storage if you don't need 1/2TB to begin with) on something else
Thank you so much for this excellent video. The new iPad Pro is a beautifully luxurious device showcasing the best currently possible iPad. Only the new M4 chip can drive this extremely unique and forward-looking display. Only the M4 is so efficient that the size of the battery and the weight of the device could further be reduced while keeping the standard of 10 hours of running time. Other Apple devices to be released soon will each use a unique combination of the strengths of the M4 chip and its variants (A18, M3 Pro, M3 Max, M4 Ultra). The various OSs will continue to evolve and users will always push for more. Fantastic!
One question: Is 265GB enough? I do not want to hoard media files on my iPad. But, I do want enough space to occasionally take along a Final Cut Pro project for editing 4K CZcams videos. I would appreciate your advice.
Thanks for producing this excellent content!
So I don’t have an iPad but I’m thinking of getting the 11” iPad Pro since the display looks amazing and it’s the latest and greatest out. Thoughts guys?
I've had the 11 and have the 12.9 and I miss the portability of the smaller one. I only traded it for the 12.9 because I wanted the better screen, but that isn't an issue any more so the 11 is a solid choice.
I'm interested in what people think of the screen, mostly in comparison to the M2 12.9", which I have. There is a bit of blooming, but the HDR ratings are the same between the two, though the M4 has a higher SDR (1000 vs 600). The M2 version already has a great screen so I'm wondering if it's worlds better on the M4, which is the only reason I see to upgrade since the performance is already ludicrous with the M2.
Got the base 13 M4 Pro with Cellular + WiFi.
Great experience, so far! It just feels too big sometimes 😅
Would the older apple pencil (the one for the ipad pro of 2020 and 2022) work and charge with the new m4 ipad?
From what I heard, no. But I could be wrong
No, it doesn’t
I went to the Apple store today to check out the new iPad Airs. I really wanted to check out the 13" vs 11". I don't really have use for the iPad pros. The 13" iPad pro is way out of my reach and the 11" seams too small. However the 13" Air seams to be perfect for me. I'm going to discuss it with my wife tonight and probably order the 13" iPad Air. If there wasn't much difference between the 13" iPad air and the 11", I was gonna just go with the iPad. However I feel the size is worth the money difference.
So I am in the same boat as you. I think that we are almost in the spot where the vast majority of things can be done on a tablet (iPad especially) But there is something missing... I feel that there need to be somewhat more specialized apps that could really take advantage of the hardware inside of the tablets. For instance I think that there could be apps that have a "desktop like version" for the moments when you really want to work....so maybe a IDE for software development with all features from a MAC/Windows machine....or the video editing apps that could have 99% of the features from the Mac/Windows version, but repackaged for iPad OS.
567€ dollar difference between M2 pro 12.9 & 13 pro M4 here in France. Ordered the M2. Thanks for the content
why didn't you say what it cost for what you bought?
I'm never buying another ipad as a Samsung user, but I love your videos! Tablets are great, but I still prefer a desktop or laptop. 😊 Great review as always.
well, in Europe we don't get power brick with 13" ipad pro, only braided USB cable - that was quite unexcpected
I’m early! I have two Pros. 1 M2. Looking to see if it’s worth a trade in.
In the uk you don’t get a plug anymore and a much smaller box.
Very nice video
Camera works good for photo of documents with shadows.
CZcams and Netflix here you go .
Would be great if you made a video focusing on the screen. Apple made such big of a deal with the Tandem OLED, a video comparison to the LCD pro, and the MiniLED of the other iPad Pro.
Blacks, color, HDR, brightness, outdoors etc… same for speakers (since this iPad is thinner).
As of M4, would be great to compare it to the amazing M1 Pro MacBook Pro (this is the one most people have)
There you go, 2 video ideas for you 😂
My 11 inch M4 came with a black, braided cable. Oh and it was the cheapest option.
I don't understand why Apple didn't do a larger one like a 15"?
Also, what is that mic he's using???
Thats a Zoom recorder for recording audio.
I completely understand your excitement but what’s the difference besides being minimally slimmer and the front camera to a 2021 M1 iPad Pro in practise?
M4/ Oled I would say OLED is the gamechanger
New screen, new battery and the size of your bank account!
We’ll have to see if the upcoming AI and software will change your day to day experience?
I'm still waiting to see reviews to see specifically if the OLED screen is THAT much better than the mini-LED screen, which is also great.
@@matt_kelly Coming from a 12.9 pro to a 13 pro there is a noticeably brighter better quality display, a few minor software enhancements and faster processing speeds. The keyboard and pencil are also improved. In addition there is a weight difference but I don’t really notice it. Whether that merits a change only you can decide? I suggest you check it out for yourself. For me other than changes previously mentioned there is no appreciable difference in the day to day experience. Perhaps with WWDC24? Good luck in whatever you decide!
my 11 inch m4 didnt come with a charger!
I would think it’d be pretty easy for some ai to be integrated into the camera, where as long as you’re facing the camera….. it adjusts your eyes, so they always appear to be looking at the camera. But…may get into uncanny valley pretty quickly.
did he say, its the last ipad ?
Gary trust me we need computers. My excel sheets takes up so much processing power due to the calculations that even i7 latest gen will choke.
That's some heavy computing. Are you an engineer?
@@darkreigncometh nope, just hardcore finance
@@peterxiao6217 my wife would probably love to peak at those spreadsheets! She’s an excel junkie.😊
If apple “blinks first” everyone follows exactly like that charger removal but apple does anything to separate the iPad experience from the Mac experience
Just for info you don’t get the charger in the eu
you did good on the click-baity thumbnail - no worries 😂
Thanks for the unhelpful information, I came here to hear about the 11 inch, which is truly the cheapest
I agree with you. As it stands, the ipad M4 doesn't have much use between a phone and a macbook. Personally, I will not get one cause it can be damaged so easily. Paying 2000$ for a piece of gear which can bend if you accidentally sit on it, not interested. I prefer to wait and get a macbook M4 max, much more durable.
The pro iPads were for me (when I bought the 2018 iPad Pro), not anymore I’m out of the pro club even when earning a decent decent salary.
they primary use for these is pro create... nothing else.
Re: Rant. I don't see Apple laptops going away any time soon. Desktops, yes, except perhaps for a very niche audience (Mac Pro anyone?).
No charger in the UK
Still hoping that apple will give us an option for 12gb or 16gb ram in 256 and 512 storage,
M4 chip is useless if you’re running out of ram.
Got mine today with new magic key board pretty sick. So happy I upgraded from M1
Please don’t shit on delivery drivers. The job is terrible, your one of 80+ stops they had that day.
Head to head comparison with the samsung Tab S9 ultra
Ummmmm, I waited for this update for a while now, declined the last “soft” update. Even met the UPS dude at the curb. Buuuuuuuut, I’m very underwhelmed. My visual expectation was that it would be significantly larger than my 12.9. Welp, I’m still loyal but not what I anticipated. I’m feeling like George Costanza at a Yankees game! But, it’s only been a few hours. 😮
create an animation of your self using ipad pro and apple pen
If anyone wants an easy answer...if you have a pro or air from the last 3-4 years dont even consider upgrading. There is almost zero differences. The screens from the old ones look almost the same minus a tiny bit of brightness. The chip doesnt matter, M1 and M2 for the ipad are still insanly overpowered.
If you are in the market for a first time buy or an upgrade from 4+ years (m1 pro doesnt count) and you have extra cash...buy this one. Otherwise just get the M2 Air for 400 bucks cheaper.
Also when you hear how "thin" this M4 is. If you take the 11 vs any other 11, its ALMOST the same. It's not really noticeable. You want a small ipad? get a mini.
True. Definitely not the cheapest. Apple paid the light bills on this one! 🤣
The what's a computer ad was 7 years ago. Yikes.
Man, love you without hat (-5 years in age :))))
I'm subbed but I have already consumed so much M4 content. The title was click bait'e enough :)
As a gamer i would rather purchase a gaming pc in that range cuz we don't have anything to use the full potential of m4 ipad
6:21 ding ding ding 💯💯💯✅
Ipad is a touchscreen device preferred by artists.
Games not able to run there because missing gpu. And office applications that need a tot of ram like excel 140 mb not working even laptop with 8 ram cannot works. And if you design power BI I recently update my old HP to 32 gigabytes ram and compare with the new xps with 16 ram I never used xps for power bi 😂 I was waiting minutes to add columns or update because the files are 300 or 500 mb each
In Europe we don't have the charger 🤫
Dude be like " man such a waste, what I'm gonna do with this iPad after reviewing it" xD
Mac on iPad!!!
Useless power? I think so! These type of iPads should have macOS installed and not iPadOS to fully benefit from the power put into them…
This is why I’m looking at a Surface Pro 10 instead of an iPad as it’s a complete OS on a tablet…
LMAO can't wait to see the "cheapest" 2TB ipad pro 13 cellular with nano-texture glass review 🤣
Am I the only one who finally realized that the wallpaper on this iPad is the word PRO spelled out vertically?
we really need Mac OS or a hybrid on these 😬🤦🏻♂️
wait why are the cameras freaking good wth🤣
Next video: Why I love 13 inch’s
I am still determining the rant. You imply it should be like DeX, yet it is via Stage Manager. You can use that window view like a Chromebook as well! Am I missing something? Doesn't the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra still run Android in DeX as the iPad Pro still runs iPad OS in Stage Manager? If the Ultra ran Windows, then you had a point. But it doesn't, and Samsung does exactly the same as Apple; they took Linux support away from their Tab S line to avoid competing against themselves, which is the Apple philosophy and the smartest business model.
Interestingly, an ex-CEO of MS interviewed and said it would be madness if Apple put macOS on iPads, adding that MS made one of their biggest mistakes when they tried the same hybrid business model (W8). It was an utter failure, damaging their rep, losing billions and making MS a nobody in the tablet market.
I suspect Apple knows what it should and should not do to sustain its business. Knowing MS's complete disaster, it is sensible not to follow the Titanic into the iceberg. People who make the same claim that MacOS should be on iPads are likely misinformed and should probably see it from a wider perspective. It is a zero-sum game for Apple with no upside but risks that could cause significant failures. Ask LG about change for change's sake just because random people on YT wanted this or that!
the text slowly appearing during the rant😂
13:36 macOS 🙏🙏🙏
A 20 watt charger! Lol. That's ridiculous 🤣
The 11 inch M4 PRO is cheaper my friend.
it's - it's - it's an iPad.
ta-dah.
