@@sleepntsheep1169 i don't think its ever been worked on but i don't really know for sure. i got it for $20 like a year ago so i didn't think they really had any value. if it makes you feel any better, i keep it on the lowest brightness and it lives in a dry temperature controlled room so im probably not doing it any harm by using it this way.
My first iPad was iPad 2, which I got in 2011 at a discount while working at an Apple Reseller. It was great, I used it up until late 2018, when it was replaced with a 6th gen iPad.
I too had an iPad 2! Obviously my little mind thought that was the iPad 1 so when I saw the iPad 2 in stores, I wanted it without realizing I had that model. Silly me!
Great video Ken! I remember getting my first iPad right around launch day. I was prepared to buy the 16 GB version... but Best Buy was all sold out. I ended up purchasing the 32 GB version and I'm glad I did. Today it doesn't get much use, but actually that extra storage space comes in handy to play around with old apps, games, and multimedia files. I remember Microsoft (at least I think it was them) showing off a prototype of an add-on camera for the iPad... but I don't think it was ever released, as the iPad 2 included a built-in camera. Although I still would have loved an add-on camera for the original iPad. It's really interesting to watch the recent documentaries "General Magic" and "Love Notes to Newton" and see where the ideas from the iPad came from.
I had the original ipad, ipad2, ipad air, ipad air2, and the ipad pro. I still use them all the time. They are great for when you just want to consume content instead of creating it. I still use an ipad 2 as a remote camera today. Works great. Even the 1gen can be used as a photo frame if you really wanted to keep using it. Great video as always.
I love that kind of design they were going for at the time, but Jony Ive really didn't, I love his hardware design, but it was a huge mistake to let him decide what iOS and macOS should look like. Maybe today it would be way less skeuomorphic (we have to agree that it was too much skeuomorphic in some apps), but at the same time, less flat and boring as it is today. I really wish Apple went back and brought a bit more depth into the UI of iOS and macOS.
I love the old iOS design it was iconic and something that people like you and me became a custom to and something that never got old but it also seems as when apple went with the flat kinda cartoon design that everything from apps to other phone companies did to like everybody did which always makes me wonder how it would all look now if nothing changed and how it would look on newer devices like the iPhone 7 or 11 pro and I also very much miss slide to unlock at the very least
My mother's ipad was probably the first non PC device that I ever seriously used. I think my dad mentioned that she originally had an original ipad but something broke while it was still under warranty, and she got upgraded to an ipad2. I still remember stealing it so I could watch videos and play games late into the night. I heve been looking into replacing the OS so I can load apps onto it, but have not found a good guide yet.
Bro you deserve more views, your videos are really well made. I remember my cousin had the first gen ipad, and it was the most exciting thing when he came over to my house, because we get to play together on his ipad. He was pretty cruel to his ipad, there were a lot of dents on the frame, and scratches everywhere. We played a lot of games on it, and once he even forgot his password and we spent a whole day guessing it. Later on, he got the ipad mini 1, the old ipad still worked, but barely, sometimes it couldn't charge. And after few years, when the mini went a little obsolete, he got the ipad pro right after apple first introduced pro models for ipad. I remember it was so powerful, like there was nothing that could take full advantage of its performance. But now thinking back, it's just a A9x chip, and it's probably pretty slow by today’s standard. My family and I moved to another country few years ago, and i haven’t seen him for since then. Guess he's probably got the new ipad pro (his family is pretty wealthy), wonder how he is doing. Miss those days
I appreciate the compliment! I just started doing this new format of videos, so it'll take a while for them to spread around, but I'm trying! If you know anyone who'd like it, do share it! Thanks. I appreciate it. : )
I remember when I was 11 and watching the keynote and asking my dad to get the iPad for me and trying to explain to him that’s it’s not just a big iPhone. The day I got it is something I will always cherish. I also remember when infinity blade came out it for the iPad, it was crazy having such a console quality game running on such a small device to this day I have it installed on my iPad Pro just for nostalgia reasons.
Back in the days me and my family used to share the iPad 2. Nowadays I have my own iPad, the iPad 6th gen. I use it for drawing alongside my Macbook. It does a pretty great job and I never regret using and buying an iPad in my life.
My IPad 2 was the device that really made me an Apple fan, I had a bunch of iPods before, but that iPad was really my little baby, it went everywhere with me, and before I actually needed any heavy software for Uni it was the only item I need in my bag, felt really cool honestly. I am watching this on an iPad right now 😉.
I got my first iPad summer of this 2019. It was a used iPad mini 2 with a lifting screen. I used that thing so much within a span of six months. For Christmas I got a 2019 iPad and I often use it for notes, drawing, videos and reading. One of my favorite devices by far
My second gen ipad took on a new life when I had kids - even in 2021, it still handles RUclips/RUclips Kids like a champ, and the interface is something a three year old can work out (literally) - throw in search by voice and a battery life that is amazingly good for nearly 10 years old, and it's probably the best tech purchase I've ever made.
Gosh, this episode brought memories... I actually forgot when the iPad was first introduced but it's funny how I started thinking again of my 1st gen these days. I used my 1st gen iPad until like 2018-2019 when I switched to a 5th gen (which I still use today even tho it's working horribly). I remember complaining in that period of iOS 5 being so old and "unusable". Now when I think about it I just want it back everywhere.
My iPad story is kinda sad. The last time I saw my grandfather.."living" was when I took him to the Apple store in Castleton, IN because his iPad 2 was having problems. I got to drive his Mercedes which was cool and we stopped in the Tesla store because we both have shared a lifelong love of cars. I sat with him for probably an hour and a half because they were so busy and it was nice to get to spend time with him. About a month later, he caught pneumonia, and--upon visiting him in the hospital, he was unable to speak and barely awake. That was back in 2018, and now when I think about the iPad, I usually think of him.
I’ve really taken to the iPad, since the 12.9” iPad Pro came out in 2015. Since then I’ve used every day for work and leisure. It is by far my favourite computer device ever.
I got the iPad 4 as my first iPad, and I upgraded to the iPad Air 2 when it no longer would receive updates, but I gave it to my dad and he still uses it and it works just fine for RUclips, browsing Facebook and the internet, which he’s happy with. I’ll probably upgrade my iPad this year as it’s rumoured to not be supported in iOS 14, I’m leaning towards the iPad Pro. I enjoy using my iPad for RUclipsr, Netflix, Disney plus, the internet, games and productivity. It’s nice having a smaller device then a laptop or TV that is portable and yet still bigger then a smart phone.
I remember that my dad bought an iPad on launch day. He never used it and it ended up going to my younger brother 3 months after he bought it. He still has it to this day.
I've still got my 2010 cracked screen and all iPad and it still runs effortlessly on apps that haven't been updated in 8 years I use it almost every day as a mouse and trackpad so my wrist gets a rest from using a mouse. I also keep it because I have Splashtop installed which cost me $5 for life. I believe these days you can only use certain pro functions if you pay a monthly or annual fee
My parents got an iPad around launch in 2010. The iPad totally shaped my childhood and who I would become. When they got it, I didn’t really know what it was or how to use one, since i was 3 and I only had experience with the iPod Touch. I was so happy when they got it, because it could play movies that i would want to watch from iTunes, it could play some of the tv shows I loved to watch as a baby, and, most importantly, it was powerful enough to play Angry Birds!! (I was obsessed with it at the time). Over time, they eventually got newer iPads, like the 2, 3, 4, Mini, and so on. 2015 was when I got my own iPad. It was the Gold Air 2 with cellular. I loved it so much. It was a really great introduction to the modern Apple. In 2016, I got the iPad Pro, and was amazed at how huge and powerful it was. I was rocking that beast until 2019, when I got the latest iPad Pro. So far, it is amazing, with the quick Face ID, Lightning fast LTE speeds, etc. But in essence, an enormous part of my childhood was Apple and the iPad. The iPad helped me develop my love and knowledge of Apple. Happy 10th Birthday iPad!! 🎂🥳 (I actually still have my 1st gen iPad with me right now. It is in great condition!)
iPad was the first touch screen device I tried. I remember thinking it was the coolest and most insane thing I've ever seen at that time. Got my self an iPad 2 a few months later thats still fully functioning and in use today rocking iOS 6.
My kid leaves youtube running forever, and I unless we catch it, it'll be on for the entire day, and still have battery to spare. Compare that to my ipad 2017, and the battery on that struggles to hit 4 or 5 hours :/
Been living off a 2018 12.9” iPad Pro for 1.5 years now to replace an aging 2011 13” MacBook Pro for personal and work stuff and it’s been alright. Only gripe is the 4GB memory when I have to use Affinity Photo for work; having only that amount of memory causes the app to crash from time to time when dealing with heavier projects. Otherwise, it works well. Multitasking is also lacking. Maybe I’ll go back to a Macbook when the time comes I need to upgrade. Yet there’s just something that makes using the iPad more fun even with the limitations it brings when it comes to work
I was the one who mocks iPad because it was, and still is, an enlarged iPhone back in 2010. Months later, I get the 1st gen iPad. Eventually I use iPad again in 2017 with iPad 5th Generation. Now, if you want a real tablet, iPad is your only choice. Not that Windows Tablets are bad, but Windows tablet at the price of a base iPad are crap and iPad is the way to go. You can now working with just an iPad. This device is powerful and versatile at the same time.
I waited until the iPad 2, because I knew it would follow the same style design of the iPod Touch (4th Generation) also released in 2010. I also was pretty sure it would have cameras and would just be better overall. I was right, and my iPad 2 sits on my desk, running iOS 9 from 2015 and displaying my CCTV camera feeds. It also still works with Facetime, so I use it for that and also Messenger calls. I love my iPad 2. It is one of the best products I have ever had and has served me well for nearly a decade
My story with iPad: My wife bought an iPad in the US and brought it back to where we live (Denmark). It was early 2010. She said: "Here U go honey. I can't see what you want to use it for. But I know you like tech, so here you are...". The iPad eventually grew on her, and after 2-3 months, she had the iPad in her hands for 3-4 hours daily. I almost couldn't get to spend some time with it on my own. Fast forward to today: We have had almost every version of the iPad since then and we love the product.
I remember it was back in 2013, and at the time my mom still had a random LG flip phone from Koodo. But I remember that we were in the mall on her birthday, and I was pointing out the stores, and I remember pointing out the Koodo store and her saying " Oh! We need to go in there " and I don't remember anything from inside of the store, but I do know she came out with a Black 8GB iPhone 4. Then after that we went to Visions Electronics and bought a Black 32GB iPad Mini and a Griffin folio case with like fake leather on the cover. And I think my mom also got a Black Otter Box for her iPhone 4. We used that iPad Mini until the motherboard died ( I now think that they were lying and that it could've been just a fully depleted battery ) but they gave us the complete opposite to our original, because they switched the motherboard to a White 16GB model, thinking we wouldn't notice, but we did. After that we used it until 2017, when we were traveling, and I saw an Apple Store, since I had never been to one, I just needed it see it. But after that my mum got a 32GB iPad 5th Generation, and we still use it now.
Good report but you forgot to mention the iPad-1 had a place for the camera.... just missing.... in fact many pointed this out at the time after Steve Jobs did the presentation.... you could see it on the demo unit on stage..,.
Shoot I just finished refurbishing an iPad Mini 4 I saved from the technology graveyard. It had a broken LCD with no damage to the casing or touch glass. Weird but ok. It works just fine mostly. Though it doesn’t seem to like iOS 13 very much being 4 years old.
My first iPad was the iPad mini, after my iPod touch broke and I used the hell out of it. Sadly I drowned it last year in the bathtub while watching Netflix. 😢 Now I got the iPad Air 10,5 and use it everyday in school tanking notes. I couldn't go back to using paper and folders, it's just much more convenient and it is fun working with it in classes.
I use my iPad 5th Gen, every day. Mostly for studying languages and programming (Can't beat Playgrounds, best app to get started). Also, the smart folio is a great stand when I want to watch videos lets say in the kitchen but I don't wanna get my MacBook keyboard dirty. And lastly, I'm a producer so music-making on the go, composing apps and photoshop apps are a must!
I couldn't see iPad's potential at launch, got caught up in all the "it's just a big iPhone" cynicism. Well... I was wrong. iPad is now my favourite device for 99% of what I do outside of work. Incredible platform.
That's awesome. Yeah, there was some uncertainty at the beginning, but that happens with many new things. The All Things Digital interview also goes into the "future" of tablets. It's fun to watch that because it was 10 years ago. We're in "the future" now!
I got my first IPad back in August of last year after getting tired of all my Windows computers constantly breaking down I wanted something that would just work and be stable so I ordered myself and IPad 6th Gen and been a happy customer ever since
I remember struggling to get used to the school iPad that I was given from 7th to 8th grade. The app store was locked down, so only a handful of approved apps that appeared in the Self Service app could be used. Really, I just wanted to get send it back. Why use one if I can't customize the software experience a little? That was about 3-4 years ago.
I'm not sure how related this is but the iPad's form size is not coincidental is it? The Mini versions followed the A size metric paper while the main iPads seem to follow the B size metric paper layout To be specific the non Pro iPads are in the B5 paper range while the minis are in the A5 range... yes they are literally metric notebooks while the Pro are Sketchbook B (B3-B4?) sized notebooks
I have an iPad 2 that I got brand new for my birthday in 2011. It worked so well even when I updated it to iOS 7. A few years ago, I updated that iPad from iOS 7 to iOS 9 and now it’s...unusable. I wish I never updated it. Now it just sits in a drawer.
Loved the idea of an iPad for my family/aunt/parents who really struggled using Windows computers... we bought the iPad 3.gen I believe (before there were "Air" "Mini" and "Pro")... but honestly we don't use it anymore... a laptop and smartphone together are so much better. Unless if I would be able to draw then drawing using an iPad Pro would be great, but I can't draw. To me it seems like the limited iOS is just too annoying for daily work ... but it is nice for entertainment.
Hm, I started out with a Newton... and eventually ended up with an iPad. It's too bad some of the features of the Newton didn't make it into the iPad and I still have my Newtons from OMP through the MP2100 and eMate300... too bad when the Newton was developed they did not have the miniaturization of silicon and electronics to make it thinner. The Assistant from Newton definitely was an awesome feature that eventually ended up in my opinion as Siri, but in many ways Siri does not do such a great job as the Newton Assistant feature.
Computer Clan thé Apple design one Would you have more info ? Because I really do appreciate those kind of book and sometimes they are already old. In any case thanks for your time and the video ;-)
There could have also been inspiration from the movie 2001: Space Odyssey. It shows tablets as we know them (thin portable screens)....only thing was back then, it was of course envisioned as an IBM tablet.
That's likely, too! I believe 2001 also inspired some of the iPod elements, plus Apple has parodied HAL9000 in marketing material, so that wouldn't surprise me!
I was not impressed with the original iPad, thow now I own one for compatibility with my very old apps and games. But when the iPad 2 was announced, I wanted one so bad, but could not afford it yet, until a year later, when I finally bought the 3rd gen iPad and used until 2016 (my God it became so so slow with the updates of iOS). Nowdays I can finally do some proper work in Lightroom on my iPad Pro 10.5inch.
The tablet computer was also described in the Arthur C. Clarke novel version of “2001: A Space Odyssey.” The fictional product name in the book was the “Newspad.” That’s where Apple got the name for their own new platform!
Dude...the iPad was also largely inspired in form, function, and name by the PADD 1st shown in Star Trek: The Next Generation, and subsequently in Deep Space Nine and Voyager. Even the touch interface was inspired by the fictional LCARS operating system.

Watching on my iPad 8th generation, my first iPad ever.
My very first and very last iPad yet it iPad 2. I used it to top my grade 12th Physics exam, and JEE prep.
My first iPad was the 1st gen Mini, and I still use it to this day to run 32-bit apps.
My parents got an iPad around launch in 2010. The iPad totally shaped my childhood and who I would become.
When they got it, I didn’t really know what it was or how to use one, since i was 3 and I only had experience with the iPod Touch.

Yet there’s just something that makes using the iPad more fun even with the limitations it brings when it comes to work
I was the one who mocks iPad because it was, and still is, an enlarged iPhone back in 2010. Months later, I get the 1st gen iPad. Eventually I use iPad again in 2017 with iPad 5th Generation.
Now, if you want a real tablet, iPad is your only choice. Not that Windows Tablets are bad, but Windows tablet at the price of a base iPad are crap and iPad is the way to go. You can now working with just an iPad. This device is powerful and versatile at the same time.
Though I use my 7th gen now I still have my launch day iPad and it still works great. I still use it to drive the overheads at church with keynote
I waited until the iPad 2, because I knew it would follow the same style design of the iPod Touch (4th Generation) also released in 2010. I also was pretty sure it would have cameras and would just be better overall. I was right, and my iPad 2 sits on my desk, running iOS 9 from 2015 and displaying my CCTV camera feeds. It also still works with Facetime, so I use it for that and also Messenger calls.
I love my iPad 2. It is one of the best products I have ever had and has served me well for nearly a decade
My story with iPad: My wife bought an iPad in the US and brought it back to where we live (Denmark). It was early 2010. She said: "Here U go honey. I can't see what you want to use it for. But I know you like tech, so here you are...". The iPad eventually grew on her, and after 2-3 months, she had the iPad in her hands for 3-4 hours daily. I almost couldn't get to spend some time with it on my own. Fast forward to today: We have had almost every version of the iPad since then and we love the product.
I got an ipad mini 1st gen. It still works with a decent battery life.
64 GB, cellular version, silver / white
nobody cares about color
I remember it was back in 2013, and at the time my mom still had a random LG flip phone from Koodo. But I remember that we were in the mall on her birthday, and I was pointing out the stores, and I remember pointing out the Koodo store and her saying " Oh! We need to go in there " and I don't remember anything from inside of the store, but I do know she came out with a Black 8GB iPhone 4. Then after that we went to Visions Electronics and bought a Black 32GB iPad Mini and a Griffin folio case with like fake leather on the cover. And I think my mom also got a Black Otter Box for her iPhone 4. We used that iPad Mini until the motherboard died ( I now think that they were lying and that it could've been just a fully depleted battery ) but they gave us the complete opposite to our original, because they switched the motherboard to a White 16GB model, thinking we wouldn't notice, but we did. After that we used it until 2017, when we were traveling, and I saw an Apple Store, since I had never been to one, I just needed it see it. But after that my mum got a 32GB iPad 5th Generation, and we still use it now.
Now that was a good thing.
Good report but you forgot to mention the iPad-1 had a place for the camera.... just missing.... in fact many pointed this out at the time after Steve Jobs did the presentation.... you could see it on the demo unit on stage..,.
Shoot I just finished refurbishing an iPad Mini 4 I saved from the technology graveyard. It had a broken LCD with no damage to the casing or touch glass. Weird but ok. It works just fine mostly. Though it doesn’t seem to like iOS 13 very much being 4 years old.
My first iPad was the iPad mini, after my iPod touch broke and I used the hell out of it. Sadly I drowned it last year in the bathtub while watching Netflix. 😢 Now I got the iPad Air 10,5 and use it everyday in school tanking notes. I couldn't go back to using paper and folders, it's just much more convenient and it is fun working with it in classes.
Watching from 12.9 2018 iPad Pro 👌

I use my iPad 5th Gen, every day. Mostly for studying languages and programming (Can't beat Playgrounds, best app to get started). Also, the smart folio is a great stand when I want to watch videos lets say in the kitchen but I don't wanna get my MacBook keyboard dirty. And lastly, I'm a producer so music-making on the go, composing apps and photoshop apps are a must!
My first iPad is the one I’m using to watch this video
My first experience with was with the iPad 2 ❤️
Interestingly, Knowledge Navigator actually looks like the PCs coming out of CES this year, with the folding tablet displays.
Ken, you should do a Krazy Ken’s tech misadventures episode where you try to jailbreak this iPad and install some hacks!
Best suprise just After i finish my exams!
FixIt! Congrats!
@@diamondaircraft900 :)))
8:56 whats amazing is there are still apps like this today, and its weird how ios didn't have dynamic app scaling, like android
My ipad mini 1 is sadly stuck in recovery mode and i need to restore it ☹️
Bit late but my iPad is my main computer now, switched from a Mac a few days ago.
Where did it come from?
Where did it go?
Where did it come from, iPad Joe?
I couldn't see iPad's potential at launch, got caught up in all the "it's just a big iPhone" cynicism.
Well... I was wrong. iPad is now my favourite device for 99% of what I do outside of work. Incredible platform.
That's awesome. Yeah, there was some uncertainty at the beginning, but that happens with many new things. The All Things Digital interview also goes into the "future" of tablets. It's fun to watch that because it was 10 years ago. We're in "the future" now!
I got my first IPad back in August of last year after getting tired of all my Windows computers constantly breaking down I wanted something that would just work and be stable so I ordered myself and IPad 6th Gen and been a happy customer ever since
Maybe not for you but it does for me and I am happy with my decision
I remember struggling to get used to the school iPad that I was given from 7th to 8th grade. The app store was locked down, so only a handful of approved apps that appeared in the Self Service app could be used. Really, I just wanted to get send it back. Why use one if I can't customize the software experience a little? That was about 3-4 years ago.
Buy your own iPad. The software experience is better than you think it is.

I still use an iPad 1 in 2021
I still have my old 1st Generation iPad running iOS 4.0.1
Watching this on my 2018 iPad Pro 1TB.
Anyone here who remembers the Newsstand in iOS?
Ahhh, yes.
i got a 2012 ipad recently, i like it even if i can't really do a lot with ios 9.3.5.
KOSMOS1701A the power of jailbreaking will set 9.3.5 free
@@RobertSmartJr yeah i dunno how to do a non-tethered jailbreak on it.
We already got iBoard (12.9-inch Pro), so where's iMat?
I'm not sure how related this is but the iPad's form size is not coincidental is it? The Mini versions followed the A size metric paper while the main iPads seem to follow the B size metric paper layout
To be specific the non Pro iPads are in the B5 paper range while the minis are in the A5 range... yes they are literally metric notebooks while the Pro are Sketchbook B (B3-B4?) sized notebooks
Great video! Been using my iPad air every day, for 7 years now. Think it's time for an update!
Same.
I still miss the original design of iOS. The skeuomorphism was just so nice and clean and it had it's own personality.
I liked parts of it too. I'd love to do a full video on the subject soon.
I have an iPad 2 that I got brand new for my birthday in 2011. It worked so well even when I updated it to iOS 7. A few years ago, I updated that iPad from iOS 7 to iOS 9 and now it’s...unusable. I wish I never updated it. Now it just sits in a drawer.
At the beginning you asked how are you doing and I said I'm not happy and you said good
Loved the idea of an iPad for my family/aunt/parents who really struggled using Windows computers... we bought the iPad 3.gen I believe (before there were "Air" "Mini" and "Pro")... but honestly we don't use it anymore... a laptop and smartphone together are so much better. Unless if I would be able to draw then drawing using an iPad Pro would be great, but I can't draw. To me it seems like the limited iOS is just too annoying for daily work ... but it is nice for entertainment.
I remember seeing leaks of the screen using Google maps the day before it was released.
Just 6:02 in the right hand corner
My mom had a 1st gen. iPad for some years then she upgrades a couple years back only to the second gen.
Tell me more, JD Vance
I was at the keynote
Hm, I started out with a Newton... and eventually ended up with an iPad. It's too bad some of the features of the Newton didn't make it into the iPad and I still have my Newtons from OMP through the MP2100 and eMate300... too bad when the Newton was developed they did not have the miniaturization of silicon and electronics to make it thinner. The Assistant from Newton definitely was an awesome feature that eventually ended up in my opinion as Siri, but in many ways Siri does not do such a great job as the Newton Assistant feature.
What is the name of the book shown at the beginning of your video ?
Also thanks
You're welcome. What book do you refer to?
Computer Clan thé Apple design one
Would you have more info ? Because I really do appreciate those kind of book and sometimes they are already old.
In any case thanks for your time and the video ;-)
Valentin Passera oh! It’s literally called “AppleDesign”. The full title is “AppleDesign: The Work of the Apple Industrial Design Group”.
I’ve got one of the 1st gen iPads sitting next to me, and it works like new
good for you
my ipad air 2 is so mega fast i love it
I also have an iPad Air 2 and the newer iPad Pro without the home button
There could have also been inspiration from the movie 2001: Space Odyssey. It shows tablets as we know them (thin portable screens)....only thing was back then, it was of course envisioned as an IBM tablet.
That's likely, too! I believe 2001 also inspired some of the iPod elements, plus Apple has parodied HAL9000 in marketing material, so that wouldn't surprise me!
i just got given a ipad mini 2 for free by my work experience, ive never had a ipad before though
I have a tethered downgrade iPad 1 running 3.2.1! It does have sleep bug though
The original iPad is the first apple product I’ve ever had
I was not impressed with the original iPad, thow now I own one for compatibility with my very old apps and games. But when the iPad 2 was announced, I wanted one so bad, but could not afford it yet, until a year later, when I finally bought the 3rd gen iPad and used until 2016 (my God it became so so slow with the updates of iOS). Nowdays I can finally do some proper work in Lightroom on my iPad Pro 10.5inch.
Omfg I didn’t know that today was the anniversary
Well… yesterday, by now. But yeah! 10 years.
That is dope thanks
I still have an iPad 2 but I’m going to downgrade it
My IPad Pro is related to a 9.7 screen, A A9X processor, Apple Pencil, 4K Camera.
"That you can learn how to use in 20 minutes"
My mom still not remembering where to get apps from after 3 years.
I'm watching this on an iPad 1!
How did you get the RUclips app to work?
@@TheLucidLuxray There is a patch if you jailbreak it
watching on my ipad air 2
Hey did you know who made the first prototype of iPad it was intel
The tablet computer was also described in the Arthur C. Clarke novel version of “2001: A Space Odyssey.” The fictional product name in the book was the “Newspad.” That’s where Apple got the name for their own new platform!
What platform?? Apple News?
Heh, I mean the iPad itself, as a computing platform.
Very nice
iLove iPad
my dad bought the air 3 a few months b4 the air 4
Dude...the iPad was also largely inspired in form, function, and name by the PADD 1st shown in Star Trek: The Next Generation, and subsequently in Deep Space Nine and Voyager. Even the touch interface was inspired by the fictional LCARS operating system.
