    I have the M1 iPad 12.9 inch and I ordered the M4 for three reasons. First the landscape camera so I can have my zoom meetings on the iPad. I’ve been using my iPhone on the road or the MacBook at home. It’d be nice to use the iPad for it. Second reason is the Magic Keyboard. I love the added function keys and the material used to make it feel more like a MacBook. Third reason is for the OLED screen. The M1 is already amazing and I watch a lot of movies and shows on it. The OLED screen will just make it that much better. So excited. 😆

    I upgraded from the 2018 11-inch pro. I was holding out for the OLED screen. I pre-ordered the 11-inch 1-TB model. The 2024 upgrades were enough to get me to bite. The M4 chip is an unexpected bonus. I use the iPad as a travel PC since I have to lug my work computer as well. Fingers crossed that the iPad IOS gets some updates to fully utilize the upgraded hardware.

    Thank you for this video. As a iPad Pro 12.9 M1 user too, it a bit of a hard sell for me to replace it and all of my major accessories for the M4 Pros at this time. My current iPad is still snappy and has actually improved in usability with every iPadOS update. I would hope that the majority of iPadOS 18 additions will also work on the M1/M2 Pros. One of the things that I’m curious about is comparing the Mini-LEDs from the iPad 12.9 M1/M2 to the iPad Pro M4s.

      Yeap. My iPad Pro is my default travel device beyond my phone - but I will say that the 12.9" size can be a bit large for economy class flying. Even so, I can keep it on during the entire flight including taking off and landing. Now that the Air has a 13" model, that is probably the best "plus" iPad for many.

    If you absolutely need a new iPad, the iPad Air is perfectly fine for most users. But if you have a newer MacBook already, I don’t see this as a necessity to get. I saw elsewhere that someone had traded in their MacBook Pro that was an M2 (I believe) for the new M4 iPad Pro. I personally don’t understand that decision as it will be very limiting in capability.
    We really need to send a message to Apple with our wallets and purchasing power that they either need to vastly improve the iPadOS experience to justify the purchase and heavy price tag or give MacBooks a touchscreen.

I was going with the 1TB model but when I checked the storage on my current iPad I'm about to hit that mark and didn't realize it. 2TB it is. I can at least say this is definitely worth the upgrade. I never used the camera on the iPad but I do have a need to scan docs from time to time. Instead of using my printer/scanner, it could be easier to use this iPad if it's better.

Every two years or longer is perfectly adequate. Seriously, how many milliseconds faster does a video creator need to upload a file? 🤷‍♂️

      Depends on your use cases for the iPad Pro. It's maybe worth it if you really want to see things bigger, have a bigger keyboard (if you get the keyboard), and have a few more window position options. Artists for example might really make use to the bigger canvas. There doesn't appear to be a technical hardware difference this generation like there was in the last gen (11" got LCD while the 13" got mini-LED). As a 2018 12.9" iPad Pro owner, after a while it is kind of big and kind of heavy with the Magic Keyboard, to the point I would consider downsizing. Personal preference

    After pricing a NEW 11” Pro and realizing the cost, I am a bit perturbed that the camera does not seem better than my original 2018 11” Pro that I will be upgrading from. How will this affect producing Spatial photos/ videos, as a complement to the VP. I was hoping to have Spatial photo/ video capability on this new 11 Pro or something like a new Mini Pro version…
    As of NOW only the iPhone 15 Pro series produces such content outside of VP…
    🤔

    I think I will wait for wwdc to happen so I know if the 1 TB version with more ram is required if they make iPad Pro m4 compatible with Mac OS. That will be the only reason I would abandon my 2018 iPad Pro 12.9 to upgrade to m4. Improved camera and OLED screen and better pencil are all nice to have but don’t offer me workflow improvements over the 2019. Reminds me of when home stereo hi-fi equipment ‘improved “ year over year with changes in led readouts, product colour styling and the specs AND statistics and graph after graph. More watts, improved sound to noise ratios and noise reduction moving percentage points. You still could only play as Loud as comfortable for your neighbours. The apple marketing speed improvement charts left me scratching my head as to how my productivity would improve over my using 2018 pro. I need a calculator app and I need a preview app to edit screen shots I saved to iCloud or photo roll and I need a file manger and conversion apps to ingest multiple files both pics and audio and video. Otherwise the iPad is just a big phone that lets me quickly answer one off email or check a spreadsheet or a 7 page text document. A just in case machine and not my everyday production machine. 🐬

    i only have base model 9th gen ipad (and some non apple tablets). was highly considering the m4 pro 13 inch but not really with the deletions unless the screen wows me. I can save my money for when they add wifi 7. i may still be buying the 13inch air and perhaps the pencil pro as well. was considering an m1 or m2 12.9inch pro used ,but now meh since i might want the new accessories to go with a new 13inch pro or air

    Excellent review. In agreement with you regarding iPadOS and how iPadOS 18 will be a defining moment for the iPad system at least for the foreseeable future. But I could not keep waiting. I sold my M1 iPad Pro and got an M3 Macbook Air, all because of the software. Well, maybe we'll have to wait for the post- Tim Cook era.

    Just give us a desktop page on ipados that is free of any grid layout. Maybe the last page to the left can be the desktop page where you can paste any kind of files you want, create desktop folders for files you want quick access to. I feel that would help bridge the gap a tiny bit.

      That product exists, it’s called Surface Pro, and the ‘tablet mode / desktop mode’ experience was proven to be a train wreck.

    I would have upgraded if it had more ports but it’s nothing but a spec bump the redesign was underwhelming too. Lees durable smaller battery no wide angle camera and now have to wait for all new cases for the m4 iPad Magic Keyboard. Since it doesn’t protect your iPad.

  • @nstig8or
    @nstig8or Před 12 dny

    I Agree with Fernando …it’s probably smart to wait til wwdc - I also have the M1 iPad Pro and have been waiting for a reason that hasn’t really come to upgrade a device that is still 100% capable despite getting on in years. But that said I bought the new one anyway, and the real reason…. They gave me a decent trade in value. $550 off is a darn good coupon. I don’t know how much longer it’ll stay at this level, and if I wait for a miracle upgrade - I may end up having to buy it without much of a trade in at all which will hurt even more. Plus with Apple Card - interest free payments. I was just ready for some newness. Not saying it’s the financially smart move - but sometimes you just need a new thing to reinvigorate things.

    Getting the m4 ipad pro means i also need to buy the new pencil and keyboard cause my old ones will not work. The oled display is nice but my m2 ipad pro works just fine, still looks and feels brand new

    The speaker issue worries me. Would be ironic if the 13" air had better speakers than the iPad Pro 13?

  • @MrKlawUK
    @MrKlawUK Před 11 dny

    Looking forward to the next MacBook review - it does what the old one did, you have to ask if that’s worth a $1500 update or not. Weird how general MacBook being faster is an important element of choice to upgrade but on iPad it’s downplayed? Most devices you shouldn’t update for several years anyway so at that point it’s good to have a noticeable bump in performance regardless if ipad/macbook/other

    🐬I’m still very happy with my 2018 iPad Pro…. I don’t want to shell out or a new magic keyboard. I am tempted to get a M2 Air and new pencil pro and keep my 2018 as my digital sketchbook/ studio computer. I’m also looking to see what refurb prices are like for M2 pros… but then I’m aware that maybe the best idea is to just keep rocking my 2018 until I really need to update.

    If Apple actually offered trade-in credit for perfectly fine accessories like the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil (Gen 2) then I'd totally upgrade from my M1 iPad Pro. But they don't, even though they've now made both accessories useless. And selling them myself on eBay or Kijiji isn't exactly ideal and likely won't even sell.

    🐬Excited for iPadOS 18 and for the arrival of my new M4 iPad Pro 13 512GB with the new magic keyboard. I don't split atoms with mine, but I use it daily and for travel. I'm a big fan of the versatility and form factor. Got $510 from Apple to trade it my M1 iPad Pro 12.9 with 256GB. Jersey City in the house!

    I have an iPad 8, been itching for a new ipad Almost got a mini led 12.9 until I heard rumors of a new one. I’m excited for this. Yes I use it for CZcams, studying (reading highlighting notes etc), Instagram , watching movies and shows and playing games. Is this overkill, heck yea but I say enjoy your daily tasks with the best screen possible. Won’t buy another until this m4 iPad 13in smokes and falls apart 😀

    Sticking to my iPad Pro and don’t plan on upgrading . The upgrade is too expensive and to me doesn’t have a wow factor . This new iPad is designed more for content creators and artists. I will be curious how the battery will go as I believe it’s the same battery .

    Does anyone ever caveat that when you buy a new MacBook Pro that once you get past the new hardware that it’s still going to feel like macOS? Why is this always something that is said for iPad but never any other computer?
