I’m the opposite. I literally use my 11” M1 Pro everyday. I run my business and all on it. I think the iPad is one of the many use cases of typical RUclipsrs not using these devices for their intended purposes and focusing on creative and “power” use and reviewing them from narratives that don’t rate to the everyday user. My iPad is the second most important device in my lineup behind the iPhone 13 Pro. MacBook Pro 3rd, Watch and AirPod accessories after that.
I agree with your comment 100 percent. I use my iPad for civil engineering work and it is my primary device. Even with access to a MacBook and 6,000 dollar desktop I use my iPad for most if not all my work. I only rely on my desktop for some CAD work, otherwise my MacBook stays in its case and has been there ever since I got the iPad Logitech keyboard with trackpad over a year ago.
Agreed
I do everything on my iPad pro 13 in my classes.
Agree with you! I am mobilegrapher and i use my iPhone and iPad everyday for shooting and editing work. Most RUclipsr didn't utilize iPad on 'creating' and 'working', their behind the scenes are differ than most mobile shoot-editor bts, who is always.. literally on the move.
I feel you, don’t get me wrong I love my iPad Pro. I use it for music production and pretty much everything else. There are a few features that apple should add to iPad os and then I will feel complete .
This is exactly why I only buy the budget iPad: It can do 99% things that mattered for everyday user, while the price is crap cheap.
Same
Same x2
I find consuming media on a tablet to be so much better compared to a laptop, it's my most used device.
I've never understood this. A laptop generally has a bigger screen and can be propped anywhere at any angle. Whereas an ipad you have to hold up or deal with the 1/ 2 angles you get from a case.
@Dawpps Tablet is way lighter and easier to carry around and the battery lasts much longer. Also, it doesn't have a heavy keyboard always attached to it so I can hold it with my hands perfectly how I like and make myself comfortable no matter where I am sitting or laying.
@@tomkostolom6559 the battery on tablet doesn’t last longer . M-chip macbooks blow any iPads out of water in battery
I agree with the “feature locking” being very bad. Who wants to buy a new device every year just because they made up an excuse? I loved that most of the new features came even to 5 year old devices. Android phone makers always made you feel you need a new device, sadly, apple is doing the same now with the iPad.
Unless it’s Google or Samsung as they do a pretty good job at bringing new features to older devices.
@@markclayburne5805 But even Samsung drop support for phones that are only a couple years old. The S20 FE is only being promised a couple more years at best.
@@I_was_a_Bullfrog To be honest, the software support between Apple and Samsung are getting closer. Keep in mind that security updates still technically counts as software support. Even though the Galaxy S20 FE won't get new OS updates after Android 13, the amount of features it has with security updates will still make it feel relevant.
Since I got a Mac a couple of weeks ago, my iPad now only has one use: an Apple Pencil device. I still use it a lot to draw, write handwritten notes, do graphic design through Sidecar. Occasionally I’ll pick it up as a secondary screen when I’m playing something while talking on Discord or to read books, but now basically the only time that it is used it’s with an Apple Pencil in my hand.
My iPad Air 3 is still the Apple product I use the most these days. I use it a lot for watching RUclips and play digital board games on it. For these two things the larger screen is a big plus compared to my iPhone. I do hope the iPad gets more pro features too. I would like to use it also for coding more when I'm on the go. The iPad is still easier to carry around than my MacBook Pro (which is also 12.5 years old now - I considered to replace that with a MacBook Air, but I just bought a Mac Studio already). I have tried to use the iPad for coding, but the workflow isn't as great as on my Mac.
If I never liked playing computer games, I would probably be well enough with an iPad. Portable, bigger than iPhone, I use it for notes and light document work, reading. I have a windows laptop for gaming, I rarely use it for anything else.
Only thing that I was a bit unhappy with is the fact that Air4 doesn’t get a feature I was waiting for for some time: proper monitor support (stage manager)
I have literally been having this conversation with my M1 MacBook Air. I decided to try using an iPad as my main computer after I retired in 2015 - and I've managed to do it even since then. I bought the M1 MBA because I always felt like I needed a computer that wasn't just a tablet "just in case" and a few times that's been true - but I got this thing on launch, more than a year and a half ago. I've probably pulled it out 15 times. I use my 13" M1 iPad Pro with the magic keyboard for nearly everything. I keep wanting to reach up and touch my screen right now to edit this post but it's a stupid no touchscreen MBA. Moral of the story - pick the one you like and stick with it - the iPads are basically computers now.
I kept my iPad mini for knitting patterns and a slightly bigger video and book reading screen. It fits well in my project bags, unlike a bigger iPad, and I love my Knit Companion app.
I decided to sell my M1 iPad Pro and get the iPad mini 6 due to the lackluster Stage Manager. I love my mini a lot more as I can actually use it as a tablet (without worrying about how it can replace my Mac) and appreciate what the iPad is good at.
Help me. I currently have the 10.5” Pro but I’m planning to upgrade soon. I’m deciding on either the Air 5 or the mini 6. I’d like something portable that I could even take along with my iPhone, but I also want the power of the M1 chip. Plus who knows when the iPad mini gets the M-chips. What’s your take?
@@LuisAngelSantos Get the mini 6. It even fits in your pocket.
@Carl Gunderson maybe for gaming performance the M series are worth considering? (genshin,cod mobile etc)
@Carl Gunderson stage manager and external display support is really nice. The M1 versions are definitely worth it for that.
Things that could make me consider upgrading my 2018 12.9" iPad pro:
1) They come out with a 14" or larger model.
2) They somehow make the sensation of using the pencil less slippery and more similar to using an actual pen or pencil.
3) They put the front facing camera so it can be on the top when in landscape mode, where it would actually be useful.
4) My current iPad pro breaks and I need to replace it.
I used an iPad Air 2 all throughout college because I never liked that MacBooks used intel chips. I got the iPad Pro in 2018 and I loved it. but then apple released their own chips for the MacBooks and I never looked back. I traded my iPad Pro for the new iPad mini. I love the iPad mini because it is perfect for consumption and drawing. I am disappointed with how held back the iPads are.
I don’t blame you for that decision. The iPad Pro is not worth the money until Apple takes iPadOS seriously.
still love my 2018 ipad. Might be my favorite apple device to date. Use it every day. Great form factor. Won't update until actual pro apps like final cut or significantly different design/improvements.
I still have my 2018 pro and use it everyday like you! But I’m considering a macbook because my video editing needs are outgrowing the iPad haha
@@urboytgd I'm thinking the same thing. But Lumafusion did just release video scopes in their latest update so that might be enough for me for now. And ipad handles my A7IV footage so much better than my 2016 intel macbook pro. I'd love a new 16" MBP though.
@@Kryptic1189 yeah, definitely looking at M series chips. What would really keep me on iPad would be easier subtitling and multi cam!!! I know their team is small but I would really want it now lol
I see my 11 inch M1 iPad Pro as complementary device. I use universal control with my mac. I also use it for e-books, streaming video, phone calls. I seldom use apple pencil for note taking. I see it just as a tablet so I don't force it to be a laptop replacement. I am satisfied with it as it is. Stage manager and external display support sounds exciting but I don't think I would use those much.
I freaking love my iPad Pro M1.
I would only get an new iPad if I go into a desktop Mac instead of a laptop, and even then I would stick to the base iPad or the mini depending of which size I like better because I do use it a lot for notes
The only reason I bought the iPad Pro 11 inch were for school. The ability to write notes and store pdf files for textbooks is such a blessing. No more printed slides and massive textbooks to carry around🙏🏼
I use my iPad Air 4 a lot. I used to to watch this video for example.
If I need to sign documents at work, I use the Apple pencil.
I use at as a big screen iPhone for iMessage.
I use it as a second screen for Teams meetings with the laptop for actual work stuff.
Sometimes I use it with the keyboard and a Microsoft mouse for remote desktop into a Windows server. Bizarrely Microsoft mice work better with it than Apple’s Magic Mouse.
It is just that I use a fraction of what the A14 is capable of. It can outperform a Threadripper in some tasks, but the software really holds it back. I guess I will replace it at some point, but not any time soon.
Thanks for the great, and honest, information. I found I now prefer a tablet/slate format as it doesn't make me feel like I'm "at work". I have a Windows laptop, Chromebook, Mac Mini and 2018 iPad Pro I just bought used. You just mentioned you had the same and haven't upgrade which further convinces me I made the right choice :). I use my other devices when I need too but really love the form factor of a tablet/slate.
I have a 2017 iPad Pro (obviously non-M1 but A12X) and use it for my sheet music when doing choir practice amongst other things. I also generally prefer playing my games on it because of the physical screen size. I might not upgrade it in the foreseeable future, as long as it continues doing what I need it to do. I do not see myself living just with an iPad (or similar); my current workflow requires me to also use a computer, since the software I use is not available on tablets (be they iOS or Android-powered).
The only iPad I have for myself is a fourth generation model with retina display and lightning port.
The only other iPads I ever bought I have handed me down to my parents.
I find it easier to do everything on my iPhone and I only use an iPad to show numbers to clients. At the very most I may use it as a remote control for my television but I think it’s even easier to use my iPhone for that as well.
I haven’t gotten any of the newer models but even if I wanted one I would aim for the pro model with the fingerprint sensor.
I think it all goes down to what type of interface do you prefer. I per example see myself more constrained in the mac ecosystem being that it doesn’t support touch or pencil input. I think these hardware limitations always brings me back to iPads which at least offer much broader input methods
I still use my M1 iPad Pro all the time. Don’t need the massive power it has, but love it and prefer using it to my Mac - especially for photo editing. Also use it for watching most of my TV since I’ve got a stand for it plus it’s larger and has better speakers than my iPhone 11 and I like getting cozy on the couch with it. Also makes a great second screen for my Mac when I am using that on the go. Don’t see myself wanting to part with it any time soon, it’s basically my favourite Apple device.
I initially purchased the A12 powered iPad Air 3 back in 2019 and mainly just regret not going for the 2018 iPad Pro instead. If I had that one definitely wouldn’t have gone with the M1 iPad Pro. State Manager is a nice addition, but for an 11” device I find the current multitasking interface more comfortable.
For me personally, the iPad Pro can do everything I need to do on a Mac, and for a period of time, I did everything from my iPad because it was the most technologically advanced device I owned. But after upgrading my iPhone and MacBook to the 13 mini and m1 Air respectively, those two devices when working together allows me to do my work more efficiently than with just the iPad. Nowadays, the iPad is my least used Apple device, but I still keep it around for the occasional drawing session and that one mobile game I like, but those are use cases that I don’t do a lot nowadays.
Even though I’m in college still to this day I love my iPad Pro 11” I’m not video editing on it but I love the fact I can take notes and basic things like that, I’m just starting my RUclips channel and with all that video editing I choose to use my MacBook Air but certain things just work better on Mac. Ik the M1 is in my iPad but the main reason I love using it is just because how fast it is and that I can watch content or work with keynote and one day an actual business with it. So I feel as with Stage Manager it has been an awesome implantation to iPadOS 16 but i feel as at least the 2018+ models should get it too
Thanks for this video. I've had similar thoughts about how Apple will support older iPad models now that the newest features are exclusive to iPads with the M1 chip. As a content creator, most of my work can now be done on my iPad Air 4 instead of my aging 2017 MBP. I hope Apple doesn't use software locks to prevent older M series based iPads from receiving the latest features in future. What do you think guys?
I think the software locks will only apply to the non-M-Series-enabled iPads. Anything with an M chip will get the best features, while acting with an A-Series chip, even if it’s an X model, will be left to rot
I used to have a 12.9” ipad pro, sold it and got a 14” MacBook Pro. I’m now considering an ipad mini for reading ebooks and a drawing tablet/replacement for my wacom tablet.
Having a big screen for general web browsing and content consumption is very valuable to me. I wouldn’t mind upgrading in the future if more interesting features continue to accumulate.
The 2018 design is peak iPad, but the iPad mini 6 is the best size iPad ever. I absolutely love mine. Sent from my iPad mini 6
I recently sold my 12.9” 2018 iPad Pro for basically what I paid for it used a few years ago. I’m debating waiting the ~3 mo or so for an M2 version or just going ahead now and getting an M1 12.9”, either way likely with AT&T’s 3-year carrier financing. I know the current 12.9” works with my existing accessories. Do y’all think it will be worth the wait?
I’ve been using the original iPad Pro for years, never had a reason to upgrade. I was considering buying the 3rd generation, which is the lightest so far, but I’d hate to change cover and Apple Pencil…
I love my new iPad Pro. I use for watching videos at home and love playing some PUBG Mobile with friends. I’ll never be without a iPad Pro.
I’m still rocking the 2017 iPad Pro 10.5 and I use it all the time for watching RUclips and annotating PDFs.
I am thinking of picking up an iPad for D&D sessions. I think its got a smaller footprint and it would be perfect for that use case. I currently take my 2018 MacBook Pro along but it doesn't have the battery life of the M1 laptops. Thoughts?
My father solely uses his iPad Air as a computer. I myself have an iPad mini and I dig it sorta like a larger iPhone. Watching you on it, very easy to type on since it’s smaller than the large ones, even in landscape. My personal favorite on the mini - gaming! It’s just a beast and I can do it without worrying that I’m killing my phones battery.
I have the 13 pro max, the MacBook Air m1, and the iPad Pro m1 11in. I gravitate towards my iPad so much more than my Mac! It brings the comfortability of iPad OS. This may seem like a niche issue but I can get cellular data on my iPad and it’s so nice to just plop down and get work done without trying to hotspot from my phone. It’s just the simplest all in one device for me from apple.
I use my iPad Pro M1 mostly for thumbnails too, but also I do lectures online and being able to draw on keynote slides is pretty great Otherwise I don’t really use it and don’t see myself every buying one again.
I just noticed Drew's little FLL trophy in the background, that's pretty cool, especially since I did FTC and am currently doing FRC
I have a Mac Mini, a 2018 iPad Pro 12.9, an iPad Mini 6, and an iPhone. The iPad Pro is my go-to device for all email, calendar, notes, and reminders-the iPasOS version is just so much nicer than the Mac version of those apps. The Mac is for a) anything iOS Safari still can’t render right, MS Office files, file management, and any task requiring more than two windows open at a time. The iPad Mini is for handwritten notes with Apple Pencil and videos, and a cute lil Sidecar or UC when I’m in (extremely rarely) an in-person meeting away from my desk on my work MacBook.
I have several iPads (and several Macs, and several Windows devices and even Android tablets). I have uses for them (main being watching youtube, but also as monitors, as document viewers etc.), especially for my 2 12.9in ones. One of them is M1 but the only advantage of M1 is less reloads, my 2018 one is still great and I am not planning on selling it or upgrading anytime soon. The only thing that would make me buy a new iPad is the rumored 14.1in one.
Opposite here, I only really use my iPad. For someone who edits videos on a desktop- typing drawing and media consumption are perfect on my 11 in iPad Pro. I love multitasking side by side and while resizable windows sound cool, it really wouldn’t be worth it the upgrade
I hadn't thought of that, I believe you are right. Perhaps the idea it's to keep it for people like me, who use a Mac mini or a Mac studio, and have no need fora MacBook, so the portability of the iPad makes sense. Personally, I use my m1 iPad pro plenty. I do hope thy don't lock more stuff to the newer chips. Great video. 👍
I use my 12.9 m1 pro with Magic Keyboard as my everyday computer and my IPad mini 6 when I go to bed. I rarely touch my 2021 16” MacBook Pro, only use it for productivity stuff.
I only use my iPad for taking notes with my Apple Pencil and watching RUclips. I could loose my iPad tomorrow though and still be able to do everything I need to on my MacBook
Yep, my 14” MBP is my primary. I gave my iPad Pro 12.9” away. They are amazing bits of kit but frustrating all the same as the software is still poor in so many areas. Why is software so cut down on it?! And window tiling still makes no sense to me.
If they made it IP68 and the 11” mini led then it would be the ultimate media consumption device though to those who could afford it.
I havent needed to update since the iPad Pro 10.5inch, which is a tank comparable to the new bendy iPads which for my use case, daily use at work is vital.
I use my 12.9 M1 with MKB every day for hours. Web browsing, photo editing, media consumption, chatting, emails, shopping, writing with pen. Phone screen is not big enough to be comfortable for longer use. I tried all new macbooks for 1-2 weeks: 13 air, MBP 14 and 16 and macOS is way less comfortable and slower to use than touch plus the animations are way worse than ipadOS. Example in safari swipe back - animation is almost junky, not pretty and you need to swipe way more to go back. Or pull to refresh is not existing on macOS - when I discovered that it blew my mind that they still didn‘t add it. Switching between apps on macOS is also slower and not feeling good on macOS while on ipad you just swipe with all fingers on screen, it feels great. Air screen (contrast, dynamic range) and refresh rate sucks, MBP 14 battery life is way worse than 16 and Air. 16 is a huge behemoth, which I can‘t have with me on train, kitchen, toilet. After few days I wasn‘t even picking it up to take with me. And not having touch for scrolling when I’m in bed or sofa is a nogo, using touchpad is very uncomfortable in that position. RUclipsrs are just out of reality complaining on ipads all the time and it‘s so annoying.
I have the 2018 iPad Pro but it's 64gb and now I need more space so I will be upgrading this year or whenever they update the iPad Pro again.
I totally agree with you. Even for RUclips I find myself with my phone instead of the tablet
The only reason I still use my ipad is as a portable monitor for my macbook. I like having at least 2 monitors but taking an external monitor on trips isn't easy so taking my 2018 ipad pro and just using that with sidecar is insanely useful. Other than that I can't think of the last time I've used ipados.
I reach for my IPad over my MacBook Pro all the time. It is the portability and ease of use. If I have extensive writing then I am on the desktop of MacBook, but for around the house or in the office I always have my IPad within reach.
Totally agree with Drew. I use my MacBook Air (2015 Core i7) all the time, and it runs Mac OS Monterey very fast. I never touch my iPad.
I have basically given up doing anything on my iPad except watching videos. Even then sometimes I use my phone for that
I think students are the main reason higher-end iPads exist. Like the iPad Pro and Air. I use the 11” M1 iPad Pro for taking notes and doing assignments, homework and content consumption. And it does everything very well, i have the Magic Keyboard and the folio case which gives it more flexibility for being a laptop and typing up and essay or en elevated notebook for taking notes. I think the iPad just offers more flexibility for students, being able to hand write notes instead of just typing them. It’s also just fun to use, multitasking feels like nothing else with split screen, the shelf and iCloud Drive you feel really productive. I dont know its definitely not for everyone but for students it’s amazing.
I still use my 2018 11“ iPad Pro. The next iPad I am looking for, would probably be the iPad mini. I use my iPad for reading, note taking, rare RUclips consumption and TradingView. Only thing that makes me wait is a OLED screen and maybe a bit more ram. 6GB or 8GB would be amazing, my iPad is constantly refreshing apps. I don‘t care about 120Hz as I stopped gaming, but I‘d love a OLED screen (therefor not a downgrade when switching between my iPhone 12 mini and iPad).
And with stage manager people found out that there's a hidden toggle to enable it on any iPad with iOS 16
I tried using my 2018 iPad Pro 12" as my laptop replacement just to eventually give up. But my kids who don't have phones love their ipads as the youtube / video consumption devices. I am not getting another ipad for myself any time soon.
I use my 12.9" 2018 iPad nearly every day. As a math teacher I use it as a virtual white board which I either connect to a projector for in person classes or to Zoom for online classes. I use it to mark up exams and post the solutions. I use it for doing handwritten mathematics.
But just like you, I don't have any reason to upgrade. My 2018 12.9" iPad has more than enough power for needs involving sketching. I don't care about Center Stage. For any uses that don't involve using the pencil, I use my M1 MacBook Air, with its file system and its traditional applications and its multi-window system. The ideal device for me would be a MacBook that I could draw on, but Apple is not interested in going in that direction.
I probably won't upgrade my iPad until they make a 14" version. The bigger screen would be worthwhile for me, given how I use it.
You got a fair point man I recently got a pretty good windows laptop and realized I m using my iPad less and less so I sold my iPad and upgraded my iPhone, never thought of the iPad since lol.
My budget iPad was my favorite purchase this year. I love the big screen without $1000 price tag.
I sometimes need to run a statistics programm that is not available on iPadOS but the biggest drawback for me personally are the dumbed down versions of Microsoft Office Apps
Is the galaxy tab s7 plus worth it right now? Because I want to buy one in the navy color
Funny, I use my iPad Mini 6 as a mini laptop (matched with a folio case and a 7 inch bluetooth keypad) and technically is my everyday carry. My 14inch M1 Pro MBPro never leaves my desk.
The phone is also why I’m dragging along and not refreshing my 2018 iPad 6th gen. If I need anything more than my phone then it’s probably a task for my MacBook.
Now the iPad is still something I use more than my phone at home to watch videos with and the pencil is something I use at work. But that also means I don’t really need anything more powerful than a base iPad. So I’m really just waiting for Apple to phase out the Lightning port, put USB-C in the base iPad, and then get that iPad and use it for the next 4-5 years.
I have the 2020 iPad Pro with the A12Z. I really can’t tell any difference from when I got it and now. I rarely use multi window. I use 2, maybe 3, windows at a time and that only when traveling going between Safari, TripAdvisor, and maybe Maps or something else. I will also watch Netflix or other streaming apps before bed. I would be perfectly fine with an iPad Air, but I wanted the largest screen Apple made. So I got the Pro and the Magic Keyboard. I take that on trips because it's smaller than my laptop. I am not a power user and don't video edit or draw. I already have a setup at home for work when I need to have like 12-24 tabs in safari or chrome open for work. But even then, I need more RAM than what an iPad could provide. I usually use 14-24GB of RAM keeping everything open so it doesn't refresh. I could do this on the new M2 MacBook Air. But again, I wanted the largest screen so I got the 16" Pro. I also use dual monitors for work and multiple apps. I usually have Files, Outlook, 2-3 Excel workbooks, Teams, Edge, and some work apps. So I couldn't do that on an iPad. But when I travel and do not work, even then, an iPhone could suit me 99% of the time. It's just nice to be able to look at restaurant menus or other things on a big iPad screen. Not needed, but nice. Anyways, I will continue to use my 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 inch until it becomes unusably old so probably 3-5 more years. And for probably 5-7 years of use for what I do, I will continue to buy an iPad.
I bought a 2020 ipad pro exclusively to draw on. And honestly, I can't see a future ipad providing a better drawing experience, so I'll probably just grind this one into the dirt. But if it ever broke down, I'd immediately buy a new one to replace it. Having art as a creative outlet is worth more than money for me.
I'm just waiting for the day Apple lets us use the Apple Pencil on an iPhone. I'd kill for the day I can doodle sketches on my phone while out and about, and then load up the sketch on my ipad and polish it at home.
If it wasn't for the ecosystem, I'd be rocking a Samsung Note, because being able to draw is just that important to me.
I use my Mini 5 a lot. It is my go to device when I need to use internet or other things.
Drew you absolutely nailed it in this video. I wish Apple would software “unlock” the iPad and let it run, then let the market see what they like more. Hopefully the future is more device agnostic
the feature locking thing makes me very glad I only got the basic iPad instead of the more expensive models because even the more powerful iPads are getting locked out of features, so I might as well just not spend a fortune on one for it to immediately not have all of the features
I'm using my iPad Air 4 a lot, but I don't think I'll upgrade it soon.
1. As a second display to my MacBook Pro 14" while away from my monitor.
2. For note-taking and explaining doubts to my students
3. For reading books.
4. Watching something on my bed before sleeping or when I'm in Kitchen. (I do watch movies on MB Pro if I'm on my chair)
5. Mobile Games (Mostly arcade but sometime PubG Mobile)
6. FaceTime calls (sometimes MacBook and iPhone too, but iPad is the middle ground)
I'm using way less than I used to since I bought my MacBook, but I'm still using it. I wish Apple gave a mini-sized iPhone pro. I take many pictures of my friends on portrait, so telephoto is kind of a deal breaker; hence, I went with the 13 pro.
I always enjoy your takes on things, even though I almost 100% disagree with the one you specifically have on the iPad. You basically made the generally absolutely valid point that there’s zero actual need to upgrade to the newest apple product every year, and that there’s also no actual need for virtually anyone to own every single product line from apple. That’s why for me ever since I got an iPad it always made the idea of a laptop in my life completely redundant, as I already had an iMac in case I want to do legacy computer workflow stuff. And an iMac is simply a superior hardcore workhorse over the in comparison “gimped desktop experience” of a laptop.
But your arguments of new features being exclusive to new devices, and prior devices still being sufficiently performant for a long time can be applied to pretty much all things tech.
It makes more sense to keep expanding the capabilities of iPadOS instead of just dumping macOS on the iPad and turning it into a redundant product category: a MacBook clone when the MacBook already exists. I love the iPad and the direction apple has been going with it. It has all the pro apps I need as a professional trader, so I flawlessly run 100% of my business on it.
I do see that my iMac obviously has more expanded capabilities and I enjoy those too. But they’re usually not needed in my day to day business life. So my iMac is great companion device I enjoy using for fun tech geek and admin stuff.
But I hope and am sure apple will also bring those specific pro apps to the iPad you and other RUclipsrs keep asking for.
I feel the same way. I love the iPad Pro, but until it can run pro apps and can do tons of things my iPhone can’t, I think I’m gonna hold off until Apple decides to do more with it.
I prefer my 14” M1 MacBook Pro for work stuff but when I am sitting in my recliner watching videos or movies I still prefer my 12” iPad with touch screen and mobile apps for the streaming services and such. Both is good.
What about for taking notes? That has to be the largest remaining use case with the Apple Pencil
so im an m2 ipad pro owner and the only thing i would change would be making it so games can run higher settings 120 fps because it hardly gets warm on most games running the highest settings which means there is so much more it should do but these games are limited
I agree with your comments 100 percent. I have been saying for years that, no one really needs all three of these devices (i.e. an iPhone, an iPad, and a Apple laptop computer). For myself, I do not own an iPhone or a modern Apple laptop (my vintage laptops each still have DVD super-drives, work with Apple's white remote control, and the Apple logo on the back always "lights up" when the unit is on). If, I want to do computer work, I use my Apple desktop. So, the basic iPad with max RAM and the data cell option continues to all of my needs. And, I use my iPad each day (smile...smile).
I use my laptop for work, but I use my iPad for leisure. Games, reading, videos, web browsing - all of that I do on my iPad because it's so light and easy to carry around with me everywhere I go. My phone screen is too small. I only use it for making phone calls, payments, or anything I have to do when I'm not home and don't have my iPad with me.
I got the 11 in 2020 iPad Pro LTE 256 and honestly it’s my only computer along with the magic keyboard. I just like the ability to take the keyboard away.
Ouch! ;) I too wonder what the next iPad, in my case iPad Pro, will offer? I own the iPad Pro 12.9" with 16GB and 512 SSD. If Apple's iOS 16 really requires even higher/more costly RAM and SSD, IMHO they are most likely going to price themselves out of most of the market. Perhaps force people to abandon the tablet for a laptop form. For the record I love my iPad, but clearly the M1 chip and 16GB of RAM has not really met its potential under the current iOS.
Oh man, your take is so good. The only reason I still use my iPad pro 2018 is, that I write on it to study and do math. Everything else: Macbook or iPhone.
As a student I use my iPad daily to hand write notes. Don’t have the Magic Keyboard, just the apple pencil. But if I could only pick one device I would probably pick my m1 MacBook Air. I was lucky enough to get a scholarship, and because university is basically free in my country, that scholarship money went towards a MacBook and an iPad.
I want them to sell products in the Og eggshell white and have the info on the back written in the old bold font with the rainbow logo as a potion
If the iPad will have a SD card video and not just a dongle and I can offset my camera footage into it s immediately that would be a worthwhile investments.
Having the new Mac safe on the iPad would also be to be nice feel right the Mac version.
I need the apple pencil and my iPad pro for work. I use Notability in my iPad. The versatility of the iPad is amazing. I also have a 13 mac book pro and an iPhone 13 pro max. Its the perfect trio for me.
ram isnt gonna matter till apple makes it so i can decide how its used. cuz im still waiting on clip studio to update to let me allocate more then 8
I'm good with my iPhone 12 (regular size) and M1 MacBook Air. If I want more screen and better typing I use the Air. If I really want more screen I plug into a Samsung M7 monitor and use my Logitech MX Keys and Magic Mouse. I ditched my iPad Pro for this set up and for me it is a better set up.
What are your thoughts on thinner bezels? Some say they're thicker to give a space to hold onto. I say it''s apple living in 2015.
It does need a place to hold.
when the iPad Pro came out I loved the idea of a huge screen and though I could use it and replace my Mac but I was wrong. yes it is true for most people that just browse the web and watch videos yes, but I'm not that person. I though I could but no. I do browse the web and watch a lot of videos like 95% or the time but that 5% of the time when I really need a computer is when I run into an issue.
I use the have an iPad mini the first Ten one and I loved it. so I traded in my 12.9 inch pro for a mini. I realized I really don't use the big iPad Pro and can't really justify the price that I spent when I could have just bought a Mac. Also I just came back from an international trip a few days ago for about 2 weeks and didn't take my iPad or miss it at all. I have a 13 pro max so the big screen helps and its basically my iPad in pocket form.
I'm so happy with the mini. in my opinion its the perfect a little bigger then the iPhone and can do more with drawing and the pencil but not the Mac. the mini to me is the perfect note taking and small more portable computer size that can still do more the my phone but no more then my Mac.
i own a 2019 ipad pro that is already unneccessarily software locked out of new features. i will never buy a new ipad because of these types of practices
I've been having this internal crisis and still bought a iPad pro now I have a overpowered iPhone that I'm struggling to find use cases for.
I always use my M1 iPad Pro 11 inch. I use it with my Apple Pencil, Apple TV plus, sidecar, Netflix, Safari, procreate, etc.
Yeah idk. My 12.9 just sort of sits on my desk crying like a neglected child. Its just too much weight for far too little functionality.

Problem is - it’s lacking and frustrating. For example, no reasonable Logic Pro or Final cut. Yes alternatives but I’m not into those. They want to keep the IPad separate and they are doing that really well. Unfortunately the cost is to those of us who would own both but feel limited by the iPad. I’ve got the last M1 version of the IPad - why? I don’t get it wasted performance.
I used to think you were a total apple sheep, but actually you've made some very good points and your analysis is spot on of the iPad. Very cool.
My iPad really shines with Universal Control
Your prediction was correct.
Apparently only the M2 iPads can do the 'Apple Pencil hover' feature, even though Galaxy Notes have managed that for 10 years now... It's a slightly different implementation, sure, but the tech has been there for decades, yet suddenly only the best of the best, top end tablets get this basic feature, rather than any device that works with an Apple Pencil, of any generation.
9:50 - but storage is not part of M-series, they do not need to change anything on the M1, they just pop in smaller storage chip.
the storage is on the chip, so it required additional fabrication lines
@@TailosiveTech i am sorry, but it is not. It is soldered on the board and it has a controller inside, but the flash storage chips that control the amount of storage available are outside of the m1 itself.
Admittedly, there is surprisingly hard to find teardown for Air specifically, but the storage is outside for every single M-line product I could find. M1 macbooks, M2 macbooks, iPad Pro, even A series iPad mini, none of these have storage on the chip.
I’m still rocking the 2013 iPad Air. It’s a little slower now but still does what I need. I think a MacBook is more useful as a machine though so I upgraded to the M2 Air rather than upgrade my iPad.
Apple really shoot’s themselves in the foot when it comes to the IPad. It still feels largely like a glorified iPhone due to how they hold it back with features. I personally still use mine once in a while but I can’t deny that the 13 pro max is more well rounded.
Enough with the "glorified iPhone" horse shit. This was true a few years ago, but with iOS16, not anymore. The iPad is NOT a Mac, so stop pretending Apple should turn it into one. However, for those of us that actually take advantage of its size and interface (especially in iOS16), it's well beyond an iPhone in terms of the possibilities it provides. This line of criticism is so boring and lazy.
You're right it's NOT a Mac. It's much worse.
iPhone has Optimized Battery Charging, Calculator App and far more lock screen customization, iPad has... spilt screen
@@TailosiveTech Don't forget it's getting a weather app this year!
@@Slurpy2k8 what do you think changed with iPadOS 16? the weather app? i find it pretty insulting that even on stage they classified “pro apps” as “having customisable toolbars” like WHAT
