      I currently have the iPad Air 4 but miss the larger screen I had with the iPad Pro so I’m thinking about going with the iPad Air 13”. Do you think it’s worth trading in an old device to Apple? I have an old MacBook I don’t really use anymore or should I just order through Amazon if I decide to buy? Thanks for the videos.(I believe it was your videos that helped me decide to go with the Air last time after having a Pro)

    So now we have 4 different pencils and 3 different keyboard cases that are almost the same size but don't work with the entire iPad lineup. Very good for the environment if you have to buy all new accessories, even if the old ones still work perfectly once you consider upgrading (even from Pro 2022 to Pro 2024). What's particularly annoying is that it's often not a hardware issue, just a software limitation to boost sales.

    Position of the camera is not enough for me to get the Air, weight (with keyboard) is only about 60 grams difference so not a lot of saving there.
    I want the larger form factor but do not need the Pro features so the Air 13 would suit me however i cannot see the point of going from an M1 5th Gen 12.9 Pro.

    I currently have the iPad Air 5, 64gb. I’ve been already wishing it had WiFi 6e and a larger screen, for a while. My AppleCare expires in June, and trade in value right now is $310. So….The new iPad Aïr 6 seems like a just in time answer, for the right price with trade in.
    BUT
    My only concern about the 13” iPad Air 6 is the M2 chip. I don’t need it in a mere TABLET and I certainly don’t want it if it is going to generate more heat. My iPad Air 5 stays at room temp with M1.
    I am also waiting for a MacBook Air laptop that either is so efficient it runs cool while encoding video without fans, or it has fans. That hasn’t been the case for the recent MacBook Airs. I’m still using a working 2012 MacBook Air, which by the way has a fan…which I suspect lends to its longevity. Apple, please put fans back in Airs…it makes sense…fan….air….
    I suspect the M4 MacBook Pro (with a fan) will be expensive, since the new iPad Pro now costs about as much as a low end laptop. 🙄

    I like that there is a 12.9" option for the Air. My 11" iPad Pro now needs a $500 repair (out of warranty of course) and I'm thinking about getting the larger display. Up until now smaller iPads worked just fine for me, but recently I have started using music reading apps and a fair amount of my piano library is digital... and much easier to read on the larger screen. Budget is something I need take into account. Buying the base iPad Air 12.9 I'd have to get a case and new pencil, plus Apple Care and we're approaching $1000. Do you think a refurbished 5th or 6th gen 12.9 would be cost effective?

      I bought the iPad 10th gen last year. The screen light kept dimming in and out on its own after a few minutes (out of the box). Drove me crazy, especially when I'm reading. Ipad Air 5th gen didn't have that problem so if I have to choose, I'd definitely go with the iPad Air and stay away from the regular version even if it's way cheaper.

    The biggest issue for me with the iPad and especially the Pro line is that iPadOS doesn't have enough desktop OS / professional features to fully take advantage of even the M1 outside of a few apps. it's so close to being a full primary computer for me if only they didn't let the OS hold it back. I know it'd eat into mac book sales a little but ultimately those who want a laptop will still go for a macbook. Giving the M series iPads a fully fledged OS would truly make the decision between iPad and macbook one purely of preference.
