    Which iPad makes the most sense to you - iPad Air or iPad Pro?

    • @gnorb
      @gnorb Před 22 dny +7

      iPad Air. I still have my Pro 2018, but it’s showing its age. Maybe it’s time to upgrade, but I don’t think I need the Pro… unless I decide to surrender my M1 MBP and move my video editing workflow to the iPad.
      I’m tempted…

      Actually...I was more excited by the new $349 US for the iPad 10.
      All that WONDERFUL computing power of those new M4 and M2 chips in the Air and Pro, respectively, are hamstrung and shackled by the iPadOS.
      Sadly, I've lately fallen in love with another woman...a Samsung Galaxy S6 Lite with a USB-C port.
      Can a cheaper iPad with a USB-C port tempt me back to iPad?
      Hmmm...

I just costed replacing it and stopped when I got to NZ$4799 with the Magic Keyboard, Pencil Pro and 1TB of storage. In my country we have a saying... "Yeah, nah."

    The M4 iPad Pro 1TB 13” with a keyboard, standard glass is £2248. Almost the same price (would be the same if you got a pencil) as a 14” M3 Pro Mac Book with 18GB Ram/1TB SSD. As much as I love doing some work on my iPad Pro now and again, I always go back to my Mac to do the important stuff. I can’t justify spending the same amount of money on the tablet as on the computer unless something significant happens with the iPad OS.

    I have just ordered the new iPad Pro 13” with the nano screen, as I often have trouble with reflections. This replaces my 2021 M1 iPad Pro which as I use heavily every day now definitely has battery degradation only lasting 4-5 hours on a charge. I have been using the iPad Pro right from version 1 and have owned all 12.9” versions except the M2 which I gave a miss.

  • @friscodog
    @friscodog Před 21 dnem +1

    I'm probably going to go for the new iPad Air, most likely in the 13" size. The one thing that always kept me from getting an Air has been the paltry storage, maxing out as it did at 256 GB. Now that I can 512 GB, the major reason I might have gone for a Pro has been taken care of.
    I will be heading over to Hong Kong as soon as it's available there. I will need to try it out first, before I commit that kind of money. But I'd say it's 90% likely that's what I will do.
    I really wanted to get the new Apple Pencil to go with my iPad Mini, but sadly it seems as though it won't work with my favorite little device. I've long wanted more control over the orientation of brushes in Procreate, and now it's available. But not to me, as long as I'm using my beloved Mini. Bummer!

    Thanks for that quick summary, Mark - you picked up things I certainly missed in my first watch. When you are reviewing, I am really keen to hear real world use of the new Logic Pro 2 for iPad. I would consider an iPad (probably Air 11 inch) with keyboard and Apple Pencil Pro, as an alternative to a laptop IF it can work for music production. Everything else I do would work with it... (web browsing, documents, entertainment viewing, reading etc...) but if it really does work for music production - then I could be sold...

    Waiting for the iPM 7, as you might have guessed... I am a die-hard Mini aficionado! All the new tablets are surely great and will bring lots of joy to their future users for sure - but for me, where I go, my iPM goes... sometimes tossed in to my backpack with a mouse and magic keyboard (the compact, simple one), sometimes just w/o anything but maybe a lightning cable to load it...

    I have an iPad Pro 10.5” (2017), so have been waiting for this new iPad Pro to upgrade.
    I’ve ordered a 11” iPad Pro with 1TB with nano-texture glass, it’s bloody expensive but want to future proof it for another 6-7yrs.
    The 1TB also means the full 10-core CPU with 4 performance cores and 16GB Ram, which the 256GB / 512GB versions don’t have.
    However my biggest issue with any of the ‘M’ range of iPad is that they are still running iPadOS, surely these are powerful enough to run MasOS. I want dual boot so I can select either operating system to boot into. If I could run MacOS I’d buy the new keyboard case & pencil pro and my 14yr old MacBook Pro would become obsolete, I hardly use it so can’t justify buying a new MacBook but there are the odd things I miss on my iPad that I can do on my MacBook and that’s why I’ve kept it.

      I bought the Mac Mini with the M2 Pro chip, 16gb memory and 512 storage. I already had the iPad 10.5 Pro so I also had iOS. I also bought a 27” monitor.
      So with Continuity I can share the keyboard and trackpad and Sidecar to share the screens. So I can plug the monitor into either the Mac or the iPad and use MacOS and iOS.
      Astropad is a $79 USB-C plugin device that enables the Mac to project the OS onto the iPad.
      So now I have a well rounded setup

  • @newyorkcrop966
    @newyorkcrop966 Před 20 dny

    I see many comments online regarding people having difficulty deciding on the 9-core CPU version. My take on the matter is that since the 9-core version performs similarly to the M3 chip, so it's not weak. If you are considering the 1TB model for the chip reason, you're essentially spending an additional $500 for a single-core upgrade, which isn't really worth it for most cats unless that one core makes a life and death difference to how you use the iPad. Additionally, most people don't need more than 256GB of storage, especially if you already have the 2TB iCloud+ monthly subscription. If you own an M1 or M2 model, the real question to ask yourself is how excited you are for the Tandem OLED. Otherwise, just forget it. The chip gimmick will always make whatever you buy today appear obsolete in a year or two, as seen with how the baseline M4 chips already outperform the M2 Max chip. So, instead of spending any money on an upgrade, it's better to just save it and go with the baseline. Perhaps in two or three years, you can get a brand new iPad with the money saved from not upgrading + the trade-in value. And If u are one of the guys who are still complaining about not having a MacOS on IPad, go get yourself a 15 inches Mac Air, the price is literally the same as the baseline 13 inch Ipad M4.

      Not really it's actually the cheapest device you can buy because if you're only using it to watch videos you can keep it for like 8 years and it will still be perfect at doing that.
      IPad pro is a BARGAIN. Android tablets are cheap up front but they slow down and are terrible at virtually everything.
      If you want to just watch videos buy a 2018 iPad pro 12.9 inch for 400 bucks and stop crying.

    Great video Mark. My iPad Pro is my least used Apple Device. If I spec and buy all the accessories then I’m moving into MacPro territory with costs. I think for designers and film / video makers it’s an exciting and productive device. And I think that is where Apple is going with it. The new iPad Air will be the consumer choice I think. I just hope they sort out iPad iOS at WDC in June. If Apple delivers on Ai then we may be on a new exciting journey with Apple.

    Still doing all my artwork on an original iPad Pro so it’s time for an upgrade, my plan was to purchase a new pro if they moved the camera because I use it for a lot of FaceTime calls as well as art stuff. They’ve exceeded my expectations with a 13” version with a side camera however I don’t think I need the power of the Pro so I’m going to save some money and get an 13” Air. Also I don’t really need a new pencil the one I have does everything I need. I think much like the action button on the iPhone 15 Pro I’ll forget about the new functionality and stick to my traditional ways of doing things.

  • @BlairSlavin
    @BlairSlavin Před 22 dny +1

    Well for me iPad Pro...but because of the lightness and thinness. I want to use my iPad for drawing. I would have liked the Nano Textured Screen but $500 extra to get it (have to have the 1TB and then they have the gall to ask $100 more to get it Nano Textured.... Geeez) I will just get a paper like from your link instead. $50 vs $500. I have an iPad Pro M1 13" but I am going with the 11" so it is lighter to carry and draw on (I tend to not use the 13" because it is so big and bulky... unless I have it on the keyboard) For now I will get the Magic Keyboard and if I find a good case on Amazon for it (Apple is just offering their Denim Cases that look like 💩within 3-6 months) So I have two weeks to decide.

    Great video and pre review. I am finally considering an ipad pro 13 after all these years because of oled. Currently using tabs9ultra with s24u. Amazing devices. I think apple messed up by making the 13 inch 300usd more and having a binned m4 chip in the 256-512 storage. I pray that the ios and ipad os update will really be what consumers have been wanting.

This works with all my existing cases so I don't have to spend a fortune on accessories. If iPadOS ever catches up and allows me to do 'real work' then I might consider a 13 inch down the road

    Imagine if Apple provided new Macs and you needed to check a chart to find out which keyboard and mouse worked with your particular choice of Mac.
    That’s what they are doing with the iPads.
    I know the reasons why, but this complex mess is a conscious choice by Apple which they could make work but they choose not to.
    Every keyboard and every pencil should work with every iPad.
    Yes some features might not be supported but at least you could use old peripherals with your new iPad.

  • @darkguardian1314
    @darkguardian1314 Před 21 dnem +1

    Don’t like two versions of the M4 and missing a Mini.
    Being thin at the cost of battery capacity, chip cores, and heat dissipation isn’t a good trade.
    With a case on it, you won’t notice.
    A grandmother should be able to buy any iPad and not worry whether a Pencil or keyboard will work with their model. What’s going on with the missing camera…
    Apple has a messy line up and like Steve Jobs did upon returning to Apple as CEO, needs to slim down and get rid of overlapping iPad models.
