Thanks Jay, I appreciate you following these updates. The new M1 macbook pro and air can now run iOS apps. Not all iOS apps will appear in the app store when looking on these computers, and having checked recently I can say that e6 connect is not there (so not currently supported on the new M1 computers). These computers have much higher cpu and gpu performance than any iPad or iPhone, and will get even better as Apple releases more of them. If you ever get a chance to talk with the E6 Connect people could you ask them about their plans for M1 macs? I would love to see a beefed up version of the iOS app that could rival the PC version, since it is now possible to do so.
I would assume that it needs to be on that latest M1 app platform. I would not expect that anytime soon but can ask them. Most people are just running parallels or bootcamp and using the PC version since it is even better. Thanks for watching
I just upgraded my FS Xi-Tour to an X3. Now I'm thinking in getting either an Ipad Pro or the new Ipad Air for Simplay connected to a TV and later possibly to a beamer. Do you think there will be much difference between those 2 devices. It's said that the new Ipad air is quite close to the pro model?
I have iPhone 12 Pro Max. Is it safe to say there is little to no difference visually and performance wise between that and an iPad Pro as far as Air-playing or direct connecting to a projector or a 4K OLED TV? Could you possibly do a side by side comparison playing a few golf holes on your home simulator setup from a few different courses using an iPad Pro and an iPhone 12 Pro either air playing or direct connected to your projector with a usb-C to HDMI adaptor? And then compare that to using a PC? Thanks!!
This is the latest update on both so what you see is what you would get. I have a ton of PC demonstrations so maybe I’ll do a ios soon. Thanks for watching
I have the new iPad Pro 5th Generation, wondering if you think this will work better or if you had any plans of doing another test with the new model? I’d rather not have to buy a gaming PC but it may be worth it for The Golf Club alone…….
Are you able to comment on the graphics and gameplay for iPad Air gen 3 (the one you previously tested) or the iPad gen 8 after the Apple Metal API updates?
I noticed a small improvement after the metal API update but you are going to see the same graphics on all iPad's. PC does have improved graphics. Thanks for watching.
Yes since they are different formats. The big and other regular iPads have always used a 1.33:1 aspect ratio, providing a wider-in-portrait and taller-in-landscape display. The 11-inch iPad Pro rocks a 1.43:1 aspect ratio with a 2,388 by 1,668 screen resolution, making for a narrower-in-portrait and wider-in-landscape display. It fills up my 16:10 screen nicely. The iPhone is a 16:9 format so wider but not as tall. Thanks for watching.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos Thank you for reply. I really hope they can add support to gcquad on iOS version. I sometimes take gcquad to range, and to be honest, gcquad iOS app is too boring. E6 is way better.
Cannot get my iPad Pro (Ver 15.0) to connect with E6 CONNECT. E6 will open and show everything as normal, then I hit one shot and shows the trace and then quits. Very frustrating. Everything works fine with the Mevo+ I'm using with android devices but will not work with my iPad Pro. Suggestions would be appreciated.
Yes, I have been checking almost hourly and see no updates at the Apple store for E6 Connect. iPad Pro will not see my projector for screen mirroring either. Works fine with android but not with iPad.
No problem buddy, Im in the process to order my self a device and im just trying to get as much infos as possible on both devises. Thats why I couldnt make the difference! Haha
@@yangendron1348 Nice! That is exactly why I made this video so glad you are seeing it. I had a lot of emails asking about iOS lately and this is the latest update now using Apple's Metal API. iPhone is now looking the same as iPad from what I can tell so far. It was downscaled significantly before vs iPAD
@@jazjablonski407 I did notice that afterword's (my mistake on that default) that is just sky by choice, you can do the cloud or more clear, evening, sunrise etc. The sky has always looked good, it was the greenery that has been the downscaled issue. This seems much better on iPhone now and I saw no frame loss on either device.
Hey, love the videos! I am currently building an at home simulator and I am looking to get the Pc version. At E6 they recommend a Nvidia 1070 graphics card. Looking around, it is almost impossible to find any of those graphics cards, so I’m stuck on what to do. Also, do I need an actual Desktop PC or can I use an appropriate gaming laptop instead? Thanks
That is probably because at this stage it is old. You should look at RTX 2070 or above. There is RTX 2080, RTX 3070, 3080, and even 3090 which is all out. you might find some GTX 1660 Ti out there or GTX 1080 which would also work but I would go 2000 series or above now. Thanks for watching!
My advise from building a computer for gaming, look on ebay for a used one if you can. Buying a 2080, 3070, 3080, or 3090 is way too much GPU for what you are intending to do. You don't need to be putting out 140 frames per second on screen for a golf sim. I just looked up some 1070ti's on ebay, they are 350 CDN. You could also look at AMD for an alternative option. See Link for GPU ratings. Just get something that is the best bang for buck that has a higher rating than a 1070Tti. gpu.userbenchmark.com/
@@GolfSimulatorVideos Do you notice a fast battery drain when using the dongle even when connected to power? I’m trying to determine if that is expected or happening because I am currently using a cheap dongle…Thanks!
Are you able to project the included (scaled down) version of E6 Connect that comes with the Mevo+ onto the hitting screen, or are you only able to see the courses on your iPad / iPhone? Appreciate your help and your videos.
Even on the iPad Pro, I noticed some of the trees “popping” in late during the flyover. Do you know what causes that? Is it the GPU power or an E6 issue? Thanks!!
You are probably references the render on demand. The objects render as you get closer in the flyover. Allows for more devices to be able to handle the demand. Hopefully they will make a full version now for the iPad Pro with M1. It could handle the full version no problem.
Love your channel keep up the great work! I currently have an Ipad 8th gen that when projected almost perfectly fills up my 9x9 screen from 18 feet away. (thinking that is 4/3 aspect ratio) If I switch to the iphone 12 pro, I need a new phone anyway, will I have the option to still project at 4/3 or will it automatically go 16/9 and then not fill up my screen? I'll get better graphics but wont fill my screen, is that correct?
Thanks. Without stretching the image. It’s really up to the device aspect ratio. iPhone is wide and iPad is closer to 4:3 but my latest iPad Pro is closer to 16:10. It’s all up to the resolution as they have changed them all a lot. Thanks for watching
Hi love your videos! If you get e6 for iPad do you still have to pay the $2500 just for the software or do you just pay the subscription? Sorry if a dumb question!
E6 all depends on your hardware companies agreement. For instance with Mevo+ you can just use the free 5 courses included and if you want more courses you can do the $300 or $600 year subscription which includes online play. Some companies have a set price worked out for a permanent pack of courses.
If I had an iPad on a mount and had a wireless external keyboard hooked up to it, can I use the keyboard to move around, or do I have to tap to aim? I hope they release the software for M1 macs soon. It would be nice to be able to use it on my new iMac. It shouldn't be that hard depending on how they wrote the software since iPhone and iPad apps are ported over with little effort.
Just went through with my iPhone XR and it appears to be smooth running and graphics look good. I’ll have to compare with my iPad later. It’s interesting the cloud details in your comparison. Was the weather condition the same? Also, I think your iPhone was on the right side in the video? Not sure if I missed that.

Why is there no sound with e6 on an iPhone?
You probably are just in silent mode. There is sound for sure 👍
Why is there an “internet lost” or “device not found” error on many of the screens?
Because I am using it in off-line mode not connected to the Internet.
