M1 iPad Pro 11" vs 12.9" - Which One to Buy?

- čas přidán 22. 07. 2024
- I've been a 12.9" iPad Pro fan for years now, but I realized I was not taking my iPad places due to its size. I purchased an 11" iPad Pro and I may never go back. In this video, I discuss why I feel the 11" is more practical and do my best to look at the differences between the displays.

I bring my 2017 10.5" iPad to work with me every day. It is now falling apart, so I ordered a refurbished M1 11" iPad. Looking forward to it arriving.
I have the 11 inch as a student and I love it for doing quick things, or especially taking notes. However, I have a desktop that I use for longer sessions or bigger projects as I feel iPadOS and the screen size hinder that long form process. I’d say that if you want a companion for your main computer, then an 11 inch is perfect, but if you want it to be your main driver you might want the bigger option.
Awesome! I purchased Apple 2022 11-inch iPad Pro for the same reasons which you mentioned: portability without sacrificing quality.
I enjoy listening to music and watching series and the best audio experience on a tablet is that of the iPad Pro 12.9 " The best audio in a tablet ever.
11" also has 1.5 hours more battery than the 12.9" in almost all tests.
Oh really? That’s awesome becuase I thought I would lose out on Battery life by going for the smaller iPad.
This is correct, and because of the screen size and type actually the 11” has better battery life.
@@mattadorespieactually the 10th gen iPad has the best battery life out of the lineup
From a professional photo editors perspective the 11 inch model serves the need and there is no such differences in viewing. Even the professional digital artists who draw a lot prefer using 11 inch, just to avoid the blooming screen while working on my-noot details. This is what I wanted, I actually want something which is actually useful to me. Instead of buying something which i actually don't need and not useful for everyday practical usage. Thanks for your unbiased review.
Great video, thank you for speaking at a normal speed as well, I have been going back and forth on which size to buy and your video helped me to decide... I'm going with the 11.
People who don’t use the pencil should just get the 11”, but if you are an illustrator or someone who design or work with the pencil a lot, you will love the extra real estate on the 12.9” so you don’t have to keep swiping for empty space to draw, it makes a lot of difference between the two models.
What about music production in Garage band ...should we take 12.9 or 11...for the extra space ..
@@DivineBansuri 12.9” for anyone who will use an iPad for reading and comprehension. If you are a musician, you need to see almost the whole music sheet or whatever that you are following so your mind can prepare for the next chord/note to come.
As a law student who types notes while reading from a PDF book while referencing on other things, I need a bigger screen to make me focus on what I am doing.
Consumption - 11”
Creation - 12.9”
@@aubreybondoc Why don’t you get a laptop instead?
Nah. I used to go big, but it’s a hassle. It’s too big for portability and too small for an actual big canvas when home. I couldn’t decide between the 11” pro and the mini so I bought both. The mini is the best carry everywhere sketchbook, but sometimes I need the power for bigger projects. At home I use a 24” Cintiq. I found the 12.9” even on couch drawing to be too tiresome after a few hours.
@@aubreybondocif it was only for consumption, there is no need for a pro model 🧍🏻♀️
Great video! You have changed my mind and so I will be keeping my iPad Pro m1 11inch, I was close to getting the 12.9 but you made it so clear and easy why 11inch is better and more portable. You saved me over £250. I can put that extra money towards a MacBook Pro or air as my new laptop. Thanks for the comparison. Mini led I also don’t see much of a difference. If there was OLED, that would be better as mini led is capped only to HDR content. I love the 11inch screen too.
Did you finally buy a laptop? Or you changed to the 12.9 ? I am having the same dilemma 😅 now in 2024
Hi, I got both. I eventually got the 12.9 inch one and I recently bought the MacBook Pro m3 pro 14inch mac M3. Having both is really amazing. What about you?
One of the best reviews which helped me to go for 11’’ as it is most suitable for my use.. thanks a lot
Excellent comparison, in all aspects, helped me decide. Thanks
Thanks for such conrehensive review!
Of all the damn 12.9 vs 11 videos I’ve seen, Jerad, yours makes the most sense - and so simply and practically. It just works. What are you; Steve Jobs?!?! Thank you, mate. 👍🙏
Thank you!
This was very helpful. Thank you sir 👍
I think you hit it perfect. I stopped bringing my iPad Pro 12.9 places just started feeling too cumbersome. I already have a big 18inch laptop so going to try the 11inch.
Big difference in the display specially watching videos/Movies 12.9 Retina display is crazy! And I don’t agree when they say it doesn’t matter!ppl uses iPad for multimedia too !
Thanks for sharing your experience 😊
If I own a MacBook I’m definitely going with the 11 for ease of carrying around. If I don’t own a MacBook probably would try the 12.
That sums it up perfectly
Thank you so much. This video was just what I needed to support my decision.
so what is your decision
@@KhaliDALKhafaji it was a year ago, but I went for the 11 inch. For a while I questioned if I should have got the larger one for the better display, but experience showed that the 11 was the right choice. Big enough for photo editing, but still quite large for browsing. I don't use.it at a desk like I thought. No regrets now.
I am watching this on a M2 12.9 ipad and oh boy this thing is heavy, especially with a case and I don't even have the heavier magic keyboard on. I got this specifically to enjoy the screen and do write notes using my pencil....but oh it does seem so heavy and is beating the purpose. Writing notes on this thing is nice though. But for overall practicality I think I'm gonna return this and go for the 11inch ipad. I want to be able to take it around and throw it around and not have to baby it like the 12.9 asks for.
Thanks for your review, its so helpful to see it coming from a professional who sees and edits pictures all day long.
Thank you for your input. It was informative. But, being a writer, I would like to know about that experience when comparing the two sizes. I am thinking of getting the Logi Comfort keyboard which comes in both sizes but would the 11 inch be comfortable for long hours of typing. (I use Scrivener). TYI Joel
You cleared my confusion 🙏
I chose the 12.9 over the 11 but that’s only because I already owned a mini 6 for media consumption exclusively. The 12.9 M1 is a powerhouse of a tablet that just makes you wanna be more productive and it offers a richer immersive experience, albeit at the cost of its weight.
Helpful discussion. For me, if I go small, I prefer the smallest (iPad Mini 6). When I go for a big Pro model, I'm probably going to get the biggest I can get. Not 100% certain, but that's where I'm strongly leaning. However, if I didn't already have a Mini I'd probably be right there with you in preferring the more portable option.
That’s what I did. I went with an iPad mini 6, a 12.9 and a MacBook
@@watchyamouth5053 wow i could never afford al l that loll
@@kataxx2655 Rich Dad Poor Dad. You “can” do anything.
I would go with a 12.9" if I am spending most of my time viewing A4 letter size PDFs (technical and legal documents, textbooks, etc..). Novels are made to fit screen and would be more enjoyable in a hand friendly format like the 11" or smaller.
I have 11inch iPad Pro and I use it for college. I love it.
Curious if you use it for video editing? Other school work too?
I think this made my mind up, the 12.9 is amazing and I was drooling at the Apple Store over the 11 but I’m holding my 11 inch in my left hand while typing with my right and I don’t think I would be able to do that as comfortably with the 12.9. I feel I can grab and go more. yeah “if it’s not your main driver but rather the middle” then go mobility, walking around the house , sitting on a couch etc seems easier but I wish I was able to use the 12.9 for 30 days to compare in more real world circumstances.
I'm writing this on a 12.9 and you are right, it's just not practical to carry the 12.9 around and hold it with one hand.
@@Mark1Mach2 actually..I ended up going with the 12.9 but I am using it more as a computer ( keyboard + Davinci resolve came out so I’m kinda glad I went large ) than a mobile device. I’d still say if your going more mobile go 11 or less
@@KevinMarchese cool 👍 which keyboard did you end up getting?
I recently just traded in my 11 inch ipad pro to purchase a 12.9 m1 pro from bestbuy (only $799 btw) and so far, as a student, that bigger screen has been so much better for productivity especially when taking notes and multi tasking. The XDR display is also a great upgrade(you can definitely tell the difference), streaming videos on it has been amazing. Also, people seemed to talk about the weight alot however, im not a fan of the keyboard case anyways so I just got a super slim case from amazon along with a portable stand and wireless keyboard. My 11 inch was great but 12.9 has been so much better for me, havent looked back since.
Just curious what wireless keyboard you got? I’m looking to get one and looking for suggestions.
Watching movies on this thing is pretty cool, but it's so big and uncomfortable that it can be a bit of a drag.
Hi,thanks for the comparison. I had the iPad Pro 3gen 12.9 inch and it was just way too big,until one day it broke and the screen shattered.I decided to go with the 11 inch smaller form factor.The 12.9 inch is just too big for my day to day commute . I already have a MacBook and a desktop P.C.
We really need MacOS on these iPads now. It is so difficult and convoluted to even just edit an excel spreadsheet from an email attachment and send it back to someone. Having a real Finder window that can be dragged around and a right click contextual menu is so overdue. Using chrome Remote Desktop gives such a good experience, even with just finger touches using trackpad mode.
Usually I don't comment on CZcams videos, don't get me wrong I have a CZcams channel too, but I have to congratulate you for this review, unlike other you make all the points that makes sense regarding the decision of buying a 11 ou 12,9" ipad. Good review !
I'm an Engineer and an industrial and product design, being a teacher of all that subjects I use my 11" iPad Pro any various ways, drawing, calculations, taking notes. Prior to the 11" I had the 12,9” and is just too big for someone who has a laptop.
Can you give the link of the pictures including your wallpaper last mount photo and photo inside the kitchen ?
Does 12.9 inch mini led display on long hours of reading and watching online classes strains eyes 👀 because it has pwm is 11 inch ipad pro 2021 better because it doesn't use pwm please clarify me
Wow.. so good review totally unbiased and really helpful. Thank you.
These videos don’t do the sizes justice. I almost got the 11” then went to the Apple store and saw it was way too small
I've purchased an iPad pro 12.9 M1 2021 just a few days ago. Tbh not happy with the hype around it. esp the mini LEDs causes blooming issues and putting a paperlike kinda screen protector creates noise on the screen so its cool when u are drawing but when watching the HDR screen really isn't there because of it. I'm opting for the 11" iPad pro without the mini led. it's lighter and less bulky. I feel like I've just blown my cash on something which I won't be using to its max potential. So please consider carefully when buying. The apple genius who was new on his job didn't really give me good advise and got me into buying a 512GB which after looking at many reviews is not needed for a beginner artist like me. so its a return! (This is my first iPad so I have no knowledge in this.)
I'm a beginner digital artist too and I never had an iPad before :)
@OS mini led isn’t shit it’s so much better then lcd ur just mad u got the 11”
I mainly got the 12.9 cus of the aspect ratio, its more square than the 11" which i prefer, but i ultanetely bought the ipad pro for the 120hz screen, which is very useful for playing piano tiles 2 XD
@@kataxx2655 one year later... still love it. I dont miss the mini led because my 4k tv screen does the job when i connect the ipad to it.
@@wishfulsinger01 I'm planning to get my first ipad and I was having the confusion between 11 and 12. Your review convinces me to get the 11" model with 256gb storage. What is your opinion?
I’ve got the M1 iPad Pro 11 inch Space Grey 512GB with the white magic keyboard it’s amazing
if I wanted a 12.9 inch I’d get a used or last years model. but my 11 inch 4th gen works great for me, and I do plenty of things on it
There isn’t really much difference when viewing standard content. You do get slightly deeper blacks and higher brightness with the 12.9”, but it isn’t hugely noticeable until you play HDR video, where the difference is pretty big. I think the 11” maxes at 600nits for HDR content while the 12.9” peaks at 1600nits in the highlights.
Bingo. I was just about to type this. You only see the display difference during HDR video. No where else, they both look the same in everyday use.
I had both size and 11inch for me is the best.
The 11 inch is the perfect iPad Pro. Portability is amazing.
In tests I believe the 11" iPad battery lasts longer than the 12.9" battery. The bigger screen obviously is more power hungry.
screen eats not so much, and the battery on 12,9 is bigger, so overall the autonomy on 12,9 is a little bit better.
I got mine. I love it.
Those are some really cool cases! Can you drop the link for them?
Which screen size is better for note taking?
I suspect the XDR is only "noticeable" on video. I got a really high end TV, and HDR is great but.....that's a TV haha. Also both are not OLED so I don't know how great XDR can push mini led/lcd etc
Does 12.9 inch mini led display on long hours of reading and watching online classes because it has pwm is 11 inch ipad pro 2021 better because it doesn't use pwm🤔
Thankks Jerad, Nice content, Is it really worst to draw on a Ipad 11 than on a 12.9? I used to have a Wacom A6 format connected to a PC and that was pain fr drawing for me ages ago. Is it really difficult odd and unpleasant to draw on the 11"? thanks, Max
no it’s great to draw on but it can be annoying if you are using split screen and you will have to zoom in more often but if that doesn’t bother you you’ll be fine
My question stems from an photo editor's point of view: May one *benefit* from Apple's Mini-LED display for the M1 iPad Pro 12.9' during post-processing (in Photoshop Lightroom)? Or will one only get to witness the "glory" brightness of 1000 nits and beyond *only* when *viewing* HDR content? I've been told that Apple's new XDR projects at around 500/ 600 nits during normal usage. Do you notice any micro-contrast detail improvements when editing on the 12.9' mini-LED vs the normal 11'? Please advise, and thank you in advance.
Go for the 12.9
Im not a student, a doctor, illustrator or designer. I am an engineer with half of my work is outdoor and half is in office. I use pencil a lot to compare mechanical drawing, edit electrical wirings etc with actual object and im really happy i got the 12.9 inch version. Teams is of my mandatory app and bigger size means I can show a drawing document and scribble on it comfortably. And yes, multitasking is my primary requirement too. Hope it helps to anyone similar to my case.
On the negative side, you might want to consider the weight. To me the 12.9 isnt that heavy before you add a case (let alone keyboard).
Great. Thanks for all your information on the new IPAD Pros.
I am looking at getting an IPAD Pro for doing things with the GoPro and Insta360 cameras. Finding out my Android 4G phone just won't install the Insta360 apps (not compatible), but the IPAD Pros will work with both cameras (checked this out at a Best Buy store).
If I am going to get an IPAD Pro, I figure I might as well go with the 12.9 inch version. My IPAD Pro will not be for lugging around daily, and would probably get the Keyboard and Pen for it.
I have stayed away from Apple products for quite a while now, but I do not want to get another phone service, so the IPAD Pro is my other best option, which above is my camera operating issues.
Plus I have no Apple IPAD's at this time, so might as well go with the larger one. Plus being older, for my eyes the bigger the display the better.
I do have a PC laptop I use daily and typing this comment right now. But it also does not work with the Insta360 apps, from what I was told from other you tube videos.
Thanks for the video and take care.
Great Video - thanks - A year later still feel the same? - I have an M2 MB Air - and LOVE the portability/ Dock it to a Large screen monitor. I would be using the IPAD for Video /CZcams :) and Note taking - I do have a Magic Keyboard but carrying it with the IPAD 11 was too bulky. I have also started tinkering with a Remarkable 2 (love the feel but the Op System = slow.. THANKS !
Yes, 12.9” all the way.
😍😍😍 i enjoy watching this video ipad pro 12.9 is the best
I just bought a 12.9 in and I'm exchanging it for the 11in. It's just too big for a tablet I plan to read and take notes with. I already have a MacBook Pro so I'm good laptop-wise. If i didn't, I would keep the 12.9
you will get used to 12.9 size after a week (in my case), but if you already have a MacBook pro, then the 11 inch can be a good addition.
i don’t have a laptop, and i’d like to take notes (writing and typing), should i go for 12.9 or 11 in ur opinion? i’d like to add i do like split screen with a slide presentation and actual notes open/stuff like that!
@@stephan_333 I’d go with the 12.9 because you get more space when using as a laptop. But the combo of iPad 12.9 and keyboard cost slightly less than a MacBook Pro 14in and around $500 more than a MacBook Pro 13in. Just something to keep in mind.
Excellent video and practicality advice. I just bought the 12.9 with 2TB of space because like you I do photography and editing. However I had the 10.5 pro before and decided to up the size. But now that I buy the 12.9 boy it’s a beast. It’s HUGE and HEAVY! I’ll admit it is a beautiful tool to work with, but my biggest issue is the shear weight. Due to this fact I’m very much considering returning it to the smaller 11 inch but with the same 16Gb ram and 2TB of storage.
Now on CZcams doesn’t realistically give me true image comparison so from your perspective which one gives you a 100% better viewing experience? Please let me know. Cheers!
The 12.9 has deeper blacks and is slightly noticeable over the 11”. It’s not that big of a difference. You notice more when watching HDR video content.
hi, do u sometimes fell like its to big for like chill watching movie on the bed. like i dont know what to choose man
To me it’s not significantly heavier..like a pound or smth..MacBooks are heavier.
@@mohamedtagedine454 I tried it on the bed and it’s ok just move it a little farther than you would regular iPad 😊
I’m watching this on the iPad Pro M1 11 inch, and the speakers are great, and I can only imagine how amazing the 12.9 inch would be. I’m still considering getting it, only because of the speakers and higher brightness. I saw them both on display and the size isn’t drastic, I even confused the 12.9 inch as the 11 inch. The one and only reason I got the 11inch was because I got it for a sweet deal for $500 only. Couldn’t pass on that. If I get the 12.9 at a sweet deal I would definitely get that. Still looking around. My recommendation for anyone, is go for the 12.9 inch, you’re already going big, so go big, or go mini. The 11 isn’t a mini, it’s big and not big enough.
I notice those who like the mini or 11 inch aren’t tablet enthusiast, they use it casually and don’t want it to take as much space, so if that’s who you are then fine go for the mini or 11 inch, but if you’re a tablet enthusiast, the 12.9 is the one.
Totally agree, big or mini. I only used to take the iPad with me when I had the mini 3. Then I bought the Pro 10.5 instead of the 12.9 (even though I sooo wanted the big one) reasoning that it would be too big to carry, that the 10.5 was a smarter purchase, portability, less expensive, etc. However, I still found it too big to bother to take with me if not necessary (as with my 1st. iPad, the iPad 3) and always regretted not buying the 12.9 . So three days ago I treated myself with the 12.9 2021 which I found at a reasonably good deal.
Where did you find the iPad Pro 11 for $500 ? Is it the 128gb?
I kinda agree with you. But 12.9 is almost like a MacBook size. So why not get a MacBook Air with a fully operational system (even cheaper) and a smaller iPad on the side?
Thank you so much for your comparison Jerad. It's a shame that Apple has ONLY reserved their XDR displays for the 12.9" iPad Pro 2021 models and not for the 11" models too. That being said though, you are spot on. If you're looking for an iPad to be a quote unquote 'laptop replacement' yeah then okay get the 12.9", and yeah also maybe for the RAM upgrade. But other than that, if you're looking for this iPad Pro to be, well an iPad Pro and be portable as Jerad said, get the 11". Because realistically, how many of us are going to watch HDR content on this, with the XDR display on the bigger model? Not very many. Plus you're not missing out on much from my understanding by going with the 11" model anyway.
Hgkhh
Lo
For me the 11inch is perfect for my illustration work, i use it like a notebook for first sketchs,ideas etc and then the final sketch i do it on a workstation with a tablet
You can do all of it on ProCreate though which is pretty nice!
nice, I have the same plan
What case are you using here ?
I ❤️ my Silver 12.9 w/white magic 🪄 keyboard & magic pencil
Nice review!. I have tried both and kept the 11 one. If you don’t have a laptop then get a laptop for the same price as the big one. The 12,9 won’t replace a laptop, Apple doesn’t want that and will never do. If you want to watch movies use your TV instead of a 12.9 display. The reality of tables is that we use them mostly for browsing the web, playing games, etc, but most importantly, because they are really portable. Problem with the 12.9 is that is not as portable, weights way more and if you don’t get the keyboard, you’ll feel its to big for your eyes for watching stuff or gaming at your regular arms distance. Plus the price.
Only and only reason I would get the big one is if you draw a lot at a pro level and need a bigger canvas. Otherwise the 11 is the one.

Perfect comment. Still thinking which size to pick. I've only used 9.7" and 10.5". I'm sure I will be very happy with 11", but still looking for reasons to try the larger 12.9", even though I know it is too big, less comfortable, with blooming, more pricely, etc. Your comment helped me to stick with 11".
100 percent agree with you on this one
I’m in the same dilema, but my brain tells me 11 is the perfect and the heart say go with the 12.9 . But thanks to your comment I decided to go 11 and I think I choose well . Thanks
@@samuellopez4679 brain always goes here and there. Listen your heart and get 12.9”
@@dont3222 I listened to my brain when I bought the 10.5, not anymore. Now, I bought the 12.9. Listening to your heart is the way to go…
its a good system but with that price a Mac air is cheaper and more functional for most people. Better to add a watcom tablet and use that for writing.
I love to use 11 inch in portrait with a portable stand for reading and CZcams-its great
this is one of the reason to get the 11 inch variant. Portrait use is perfect
Does anyone ever mention the difference in sound? The 12.9 sounds like a friggin Bose. I thought I was sold on the 11, but after hearing the sound difference in the store, I am once again torn.
Very true. Good point!
I have 11 in order! Super excited! This is the most $ I’ve probably ever spent on myself? Lol
There are comments under different youtube movies that users are looking for 12" iPad (in the middle between 11" and 12.9") Do you think 12" is ideal size for everyone? (for who 11" is to small and for who 12.9" is to big)
it is the ideal size but selling that would mean losing sales for both the 11in and 12.9in, which apple would never do
@@longea712 Never say never ;) Cheers!
I’m thinking of retiring my 2015 iPad Pro 12.9. Do you think I should downgrade the size?
As a tablet it’s too big for me, but as my secondary laptop it’s a great size
the 12.9 with the new design does have a smaller footprint than the old one. i'd say check it out before you decide
Go for the 11 since you have a laptop
I just sold my original IPad Pro 2015. I love love my iPad it it became so cumbersome. I have small hands but love the large screen of the 12.9. I’m going to get a renewed 2018 11 IPad Pro. Good luck!!
Thanks a lot
Bro you hands are huge!!!
I got the big one 👍 thing is a beast. Yea $400 more (cad) but more screen room and XDR costs more
What did you get the 256, 512, 1tb or 2tb? I got the big one with 2tb and 5g. It’s awesome.
@@bhodges00 I got the base 128gb. Sweet dude it’s pretty awesome you will love it. 11’ is crap compared to 12.9. Wow 2tb that’s loads of space!
My honest advice for any of you who still doesn’t decide which size to choose is “Don’t buy what you want. But don’t hesitate to buy what you need”. I had 11’ IPad Pro 2018 then I upgraded to same size 11’ IPad Pro 2020. I always I felt regret for not buying the larger size 12.9’. Finally I got the 12.9”. The 11’’ portability is only reasonable excuse for ladies who are planning holding their iPad in their purse. If you have a plan to carry the IPad either by hand or in backpack, it wouldn’t matter which IPad you chose. People who already have the 11’ can compare the size difference with printer paper (A4). I enjoy taking notes on the bigger Ipad that has regular paper sides. Since I already graduated from college, I have no need of using note taking apps such as notability or GoodNotes. Currently I am using my IPad Pro for entertaining. For my needs my old iPad mini 4 will do the jobs. Thus, I will sale my iPad Pro 12.9 and save the money for something else.
@@richrancy Yes I sold the IPad Pro 12.9 M1.
With the money, I purchased decent Trek Fuel Ex 8 mountain bike and I’m engaging with nature Riding in trails.
As of media consumption, I am using my old iPad mini 4. Extremely happy with my decision.
@@dont3222 the ipad mini 4 will not work for very much longer though
Great video sir. I wanted to buy the 12.9 inch I pad pro. Did you face any durability issues with the 12.9 inch one, as u mentioned u thought it would bend?
It’s a reoccurring thing with the iPads lately the 11 because it is smaller won’t bend as easily
Im a bit torn between 11 and 12.9, but im leaning more towards 12.9 since I need an Ipad for notetaking, reading, and splitscreen (I’m a medtech student btw). But a bit skeptical since I heard that 12.9 tends to get low battery faster than 11. What do y’all think?
11 is more portable, Cannot imagine reading on 12.9
Battery life on the 11 is much less. Similar use, my 11 will have 40% left at end of day where the 12.9 has more than 60%. Larger battery compensates plenty for larger display.
Go for 12.9 that’s what I got. It’s worth the extra money 💰
12.9 if want close to the a4 paper....
@@jeradhilltech Interesting. Every battery drain test on youtube shows the 12.9 giving up much before the 11.
Great video. Thanks. My question is, is it worth upgrading my 2020 11” iPad Pro to the M1 iPad Pro or not? Thanks.
Hey! I own a M1 11” 2021 iPad Pro but i only got it because my old ipad was an iPad mini 2. I would say that you should wait to upgrade. It’s nice to have the M1 chip but it cannot be used to it’s full potential since apple has not optimised it fully yet. Hope this helps!
Do not upgrade your 2020 for the M1. Only upgrade if your 2020 got damaged and does not have apple care +.
I bought 12.9 inch , and I’m not very happy with it. I love to play video games, but it’s to heavy, that’s why I play on the stand. But I saw 11 inch, and after 12.9 inch it looks too small. Mixed feelings
I prefer 12.9 much more for writing, but if ur holding ur tablet a lot 11 may be better.. I feel like we always want the opposite one lol
@@Ismaelbarca right(
Me convenciste con la pro de 11 pulgadas, amo la mas grande que tengo del 2020 y la uso con el magic keyboard, es una joya, pero como ahora tengo una macbook, preferiria algo mas portable para meter en un bolso :( aparte que ya toca renovar porque me quedo corta de almacenamiento con 125 gb, iré por el ipad pro 11 m2 con 512 gb c:
If the 12.9 was lighter, it might be nice but it's literally as heavy as a Macbook with the Magic keyboard.
The biggest difference is really just the xdr display
A video that’s still helpful in 2023 with the M2. Thanks for the great comparison. I’ve decided to trade in my 12.9 v3 for the 11 M2. I was concerned about not getting the min led screen. Thankfully you just put my mind at ease. I’ll upgrade again when they go to micro led.
Since it can't actually replace MacBook, 11" probably a good companion to 14" MacBook.
I have both. 11 works better as a tablet. The 12.9 stays at the piano.
Спасибо!
I just found your channel and I know this is really random but you have really beautiful eyes.
Fak
It
I have the iPad Air 4
The display difference will be most noticable when you're watching a movie at night, especially with HDR content and dark scenes
Bright photos with a lot of light in the room will be identical on both iPads
Yea but i found that watching a movie on a 12.9 isn't comfortable at arm distance.

❤i Love iPad Pro 12.9 M2 ❤ And i love you forever ♾ ❤
Both
Have a laptop that’s about 15”? Then the 11 inch iPad is for you.
I had an iPad 12 inch and it bent after 9 months even after taking care of it, I believe it’s a structural problem at the weak point of charging point
Apple blamed me for it would not recommend it end up buying the 11 inch
11
Which would be good for me? I don’t want a heavy one. I’m a senior citizen
The 11” iPad. The 12.9 is a bit much to carry around.
If you are gonna buy an Ipad 12.9" because of keyboard, why not just get a full laptop?
LTE SIGNAL EVERYWHERE
12.9 iPad Pro doesn't fit in my sling bag sadly
Bummer. I have some bags I can't use with it also.
@@jeradhilltech Ok.. here is a list of apps I plan to use.. Fender Play, its a guitar lessons app with human instructors created by Fender.. Gibson Guitar lessons app, Fender Tone, a app that allows you to change, edit and create effects and preset on my Fender GTX guitar amp.. Marshall Gateway, does the same thing as the Fender tone but for Marshall Code 25 and 50 watt amps.. The Spark app, an app for the Positive Grid Spark modeling amp.. Katana Librarian and the Katana Air app, apps for the Boss Katana MKII guitar amps.. Mantis from the Laser Academy, an app used to dry fire indoor target practicing, this app utilizes the camera to stare and targets and keep score, and finally, Final Cut Pro... I have it on my mac mini but apparently I have to get another copy for the tablet.. so based on all of this, which would you go with, the 12.9 or the 11?
I have the 11 inch for year, now. That is all I use, now.........And the way Apple Pencil works with procreate, I dumped my Wacom. I pad pro is all I use now....Apple will only give me 450 for my iPad Pro as a trade in, so I’ll be keeping for while.
The 12.9 is worth the extra $. If you already have the 11 inch no need to upgrade for couple years.. unless your crazy about the mini led xD or the bigger screen size
Do you find editing on your 11' comfortable? Or would you have *preferred* doing most of your photo editing on a 12.9'?
@@sonicvboom sometimes I do find a bit small. The bigger would be more comfortable.
11 inch is just definitely more practical
I agree. About to release an updated video between the 11” and 13” M4 iPads.
Wow 12.9 brighter. Much better
For most people? Nope. For artist real state is valuable. 12.9 heck I'll pay for a 15 inch is there was an option
1,9 inch bigger its so large ? xd cmon its the same portability , buy the bigger u will be have more fun ...
We have 3 of these iPads for our family members czcams.com/users/postUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA . Great apple product and provides the necessary performance needed for a basic tablet. No one in our family requires an iPad Pro, so this iPad fits our needs well. I’ve never had complaints on my Apple purchases and this iPad follows suit. Def worth the money.
people of these last generations have short memory and easily brainwashed
Apple had first tablet called IPOD...few years later apple release iPad and iPad mini and later iPad air because people saying IPOD was too big... 20 years later Apple release iPad pro 11 and 12x inches... and people now saying Ipad 11 pro is the best size for hand holding and carrying around...
Apple forget to tell you that the today's iPad pro 11 is same size as the 1st generation table ..the IPOD... even heavier when u add the smart keyboard...wtf?lol...
Apple marketing department need a raise..😃
