Hope you enjoyed my latest video guys! Got lots planned for content over 2021! If you did like this video be sure to give it a thumbs up and subscribe for more!
I use my iPad every day, but not for photo or video editing. I use mine as a sketchbook using Procreate and for taking notes in Nebo. I also use it every night to watch tv or movies in bed, since I don't have a tv in my bedroom.
With the magic keyboard, my iPad Pro has turned into a totally different device. It is now my primary device for everything not work-related (I use my office laptop for that). With an Office 365 subscription, it’s an absolute productivity machine. I use it to respond to emails, edit word files, update my calendar, respond to text messages, etc. There is no need to use my iPhone when I am using my iPad - almost all iPhone apps have their equivalent iPad apps. I use it as a media consumption device for listening to news online, watching Netflix and RUclips, etc. I even use it to edit videos when I vlog. It’s my laptop, iPhone, Apple TV, all rolled into one device.
Thank you, this is exactly what I needed to see this evening 😂 I'm gonna save this video and every time I get tempted to buy an ipad again after convincing myself I'm gonna use it for photo work I'm just gonna rewatch this and save the cash haha
I bought an iPad in spring 2020 because of the pandemic and lifestyle changes. I expected to use it 40% of the time and my Mac take up the other 60% of my time. I just sold my Mac because I find that many tasks that I need to do are more easily done and are more fun on the iPad. The iPad, Magic Keyboard, and Apple Pencil 2 make the perfect productive combination for my work and personal needs.
I bought the ipad 2020 12.9 inch version a few weeks after it came out, and ever since then I have bought all sort of cases keyboards, and even both. I really like the fact that it is so versatile, with the pen, it had allowed me to complete every single assignment with utter ease. It is a very super futuristic experience that I have with my tablet. My phone broke and I was still able to contact my course-mates through Snapchat which was super helpful in a pinch. For me it was a great purchase, though it over throttles and when it does, it goes into a refresh mode, after logging in you lose notes that you’ve written down. Have a great day!
This is what I did. I got my 12.9 in April 2020 but sold it as it was just too heavy to carry around. Instead I’ve bought the 11” and it’s so much easier to hold in the hand and carry around. Watching your video as I write this and don’t notice the size difference at all. 11” is the perfect size I think.
Youre the only honest youtuber right now. When i watch others takes on the issue, its painfully obvious they are trying hard to sell us something. Thank you brother.
Really like my ipads but had to expand out to other devices for software reasons. Now I picked up an Android tablet for $150, now on sale for $130 and it replaces my iPad straight up. iPadOs is a lot more polished than android, tbh, it’s not close. But its the last time I remember setting my iPad down for so long
I run my entire RUclips channel including editing videos, recording audio, creating all thumbnails and the uploading and rendering of said content is faster than my desktop.
he is also using a Mac for his main laptop, personally, i feel as though he acquired it mainly for portability and not to be stagnant so much, though, i completely understand your comparison as well.
I bought the first iPad Pro as a replace,ent for my Wacom tablet when it came out due to pencil support. I used it regularly but only as a glorified drawing tablet for about 2 years. Then my MacBook broke. I was forced to figure out how to use an iPad Pro as my primary device until I could buy a new laptop. Since then, the iPad Pro had remained my primary device. I use my laptop for Ableton but that’s about it.
I bought an iPad for drawing on-the-go. But I hardly use it because, like you said, it feels like a very fragile and vulnerable item that I have to be super careful with, and it's not something you can just toss into a bag and pick up like a regular sketchbook. You could accidentally drop it and break it, or it can get stolen, etc. As a result, I never use it on-the-go as I intended. And I don't really use it at home either because I have a Cintiq and so I'd rather just use that. So I agree that the iPad is an amazing device, but it all depends on how you use it I guess. Perhaps I didn't really need it, yet I still love it and I'm too attached to it to sell it. So I'm stuck with it haha
I use my iPads everyday. I use my Mini at work to monitor security cameras, email and text message. I use the iPad Pro 11 for media consumption taking photos and videos of work related items and training issues. Teaching a class now and then as well. I use the iPad Pro 12.9 every night for video editing with lumafusion and editing photos. I use the iPads so much that I returned my Mac Mini M1 because i didn't feel like i was using it enough.
That's what my channel is all about, sharing my honest feelings. Sometimes these videos can be controversial for some tech fans (they don't like hearing they wasted their money) 😂
@@JackWoodhams I know. But, hey, it’s your personal feeling based on your circumstances, and still, some people feel the same way or have the same situation. You can also differentiate between criticizing the device. RUclips started for only amateurs for something honest. But all became business talk and commercial today. So, it's not fun to watch anymore.
@@youknowme...1840 I think people being recommended this video are also watching videos like "is the iPad worth it" etc and clearly are either trying to convince themselves to buy one or have one they don't use 😂 lots of my upcoming videos will be similar like this in terms of honesty and it's what I've always valued in myself as a channel. So if you like it feel free to sub for more 👍
The negative comments on this video are hilarious. People are getting offended by my opinion and reasons for selling MY iPad. You don't need to come here and defend your precious iPad, if you enjoy using one, then good for you! If it works for you, then good for you! This video is simply about why I sold mine based on MY NEEDS.
I use my iPad daily. I have a PC for work and play. But my iPad is purely entertainment. All my readings, music, video/movie watching is done on my iPad. It’s a great companion to my phone and laptop. My iPad is in my hands more than my phone these days.
I bought the 2018 ipad pro a couple years ago and it has been my main "computer" ever since. I do all of my photo editing and video editing on it. I also use it for all the other general tasks like web surfing and note taking. It might be in part due to the fact that my only other computer was an old HP laptop that I've had since around 2012 when I was in college so there was no way that thing could edit any photos or videos from my Sony a6300. There are some minor things I don't like about the ipad but for the most part, it's done most of what I need it to.
I bought iPad Air 4 and pretty much the same thing happened to me - I was really excited in the begging but after 1 month I completely stopped using it ! Now sold
Good for you for realizing you didn't need it. Most people don't. Prolly most people so say they need it, really dont, they are just lying to themselves.
@@JackWoodhams There are many use cases where an iPad is better than a traditional computer. As a teacher I use my iPad Pro for «everything». Especially as a presenter tool in the classroom. In this scenario it’s far more usefull than my Mac. For video editing FCPX on the Mac is supperior, but in most cases I think it’s more fun using an iPad😊
@@ivindholm2031 I never said in this video that the iPad isn't suitable, I simply said that FOR ME it wasn't worth keeping. In fact, I said in the video how it's very good at most things.
I 100% understand you but I can change your perspective about it because I’ve been through it 1. It feels thin and fragile : Get a bulky case 2. You’re gonna wish you never sold it in a few then buy another one 3. To never get rid of it get the Wi-Fi and Data and you’ll forever be happy✅
For me yes I don't actually need an iPad. But I like a big screen for media consumptions, casually editing videos, notes, sketch. I do have a gaming pc but I like to lie in bed to watch Netflix. Honestly a regular iPad would be sufficient for me but I just want 120hz
@@JackWoodhams I definitely do but I'm fine without it. It has less latency when taking notes as well, which makes note taking feels more real. In general just a better experience. It's more noticeable in my phone since I scroll more on them Yes most games don't support it but there are a lot that does.
i use mine for real estate contracts email showing clients other homes while showing homes, better than carrying my laptop or even my phone and looks more proffesional than just pulling out my phone
I own the iPad Pro 2020 11 inch. In my case use scenario I use it all the time. I editing my videos on it using LumaFusion. It depends on the person needs and wants.
@@avib3799 I don't see you doing better with 1 subscriber. People can, do and will spend their money however they like, for whatever use cases they have. Get off your high horse and go contribute to society.
I have the iPad pro 12.9 2020 and I gotta say the pandemic really did mess everything up. I draw a lot and like to do creative things once in a while so I got the apple pencil but because I'm at home all the time, I just found myself on my desktop pc or my m1 macbook pro all the time. So yes you're right. Pandemic really ruined the utility of the iPad pro but I'm going to keep mine because I have kids and it has an engraving on the back. I'm sure it will come in handy one day
I use my iPad Pro 12.9 everyday but never use the the camera. Personally I believe if Apple would make a less expensive model w/o the camera they would sell thousands of them.
If the 2021 iPad Pro comes in new colors...buying. Also, mades no sense, in my use case at least, to buy an iPad Pro with pencil and keeb and pay more than i would for the Air. I need a lighter load and not a fan of the keys. I, too, hate typing on screen, but thank goodness for the Pencil. I can hold out for the 2021 generation.
I need an ipad pro for university *(taking notes and studying slides with notability) * cuz university is starting in a week and idk if i should buy an ipad pro 2020 or wait for the ipad pro 2021😭??
Get what you need, I always see uni students with Macbook Pro's and iPad Pro's and always wonder, WHY? What will you be studying? Do you need a £1000+ machine for note taking and adding notes to slides?
Honestly you could even check out the iPad air 2020. While they only have the 11 in . Been seeing it quite comparable to the iPad pro 2020. As long as you don't need it for heavy work loads
same on me..i got ipad pro 11" 2020, now i just turn on ipad about once for a week, because daily i use laptop...too risky for using at out from home 😀 & still i dont know all the feature at my ipad 😀😀
I use my iPad Pro 2020 and m1 MacBook Air everyday. I can’t even comprehend spending that much on something I don’t use at least multiple times a week.
So what would you advise me to do? I am a corporal and during my 24 hour duty shifts i have an insane amount of free time. I do possess a budget ipad 2017 but after so many years it starts feeling lackluster especially the screen feels horrendous to use. I could purchase a gaming laptop but gaming is strictly forbidden in the army camp and i have a great desktop at home so outside of work the laptop would never see any usage. I ordered a stock ipad pro 12.9 with a magic keyboardbut it’s not too late to cancel it. Is it a worthy investment for netflix, youtube and test preparation for the privates?
That's entirely your call to make, and Apple to offer 14 day returns no questions asked! So I'd say get it and see how it feels, I'd say the 12.9 is really big, it's amazing for content but taking it around can be difficult. If it's just for netflix, youtube and test prep I'd say no in my opinion. That's a very expensive device for such minor use.
I feel like the iPad is a lot more comfortable and easier to use. Something about the touch screen and being able to do so many things lightning fast while being able to carry it anywhere with you anytime. A conventional desktop feels like a too controlled of an environment while the iPad or touchscreens feel a lot less so. I feel a lot more creative when using an iPad.
That's fair enough! This video isn't saying the ipad is bad, just why I sold it. I don't understand why people are defending the iPad as if I said it wasn't good.
I wasn’t trying to defend anything. I’m just saying what I think about iPads and why I use it over conventional desktops. I think at the end of your video you asked how we use the iPad or something like that.
@@marsbars4767 sorry I didn't mean you specifically, lots of people getting quite funny about it. Like someone telling me I made a mistake 😭🤣 I get the iPad is a brilliant device though. Just wish I could have found more use for it
@@JackWoodhams Yeah I can see why the iPad isn’t for everyone in every situation. If touchscreen desktop screens like the surface studio was more affordable, I would probably be more inclined to use a desktop like setup but not for everything.
I understand since the pandemic that you haven’t used the iPad as much, but I found getting the Magic Keyboard with my 12.9 inch iPad Pro was a game changer. I can use it to write up my documents and type emails etc. it’s much more convenient than my MacBook Pro as I don’t want to be tied to my desk. I found the keyboard much more easier and enjoyable to use than the MacBook magic keyboard.
For me a 12.9 inch for writing emails and documents is a very expensive choice and ultimately wasn't needed and why with a Macbook are you tied to your desk? It's a laptop so you can use it anywhere?
@@JackWoodhams I guess it comes down to preference. I just find it more convenient than the MacBook. No fan and heat felt. Then I have the portability if I need it and the Apple Pencil. Some of the apps I use are only for iPad as well, so maybe once the M1 MacBooks start having the apps I use available I might change my mind.
I got a gen 6 base model iPad when they came out and it’s hardly left my side or my hand in 2 years. I’m trying to decide if I should get the new iPad 8 or air 4 cus some times the iPad I have crashes when I’m trying to edit video
If that's all you use it for I'd say no. If you already were trying to use your 2017 iPad for other stuff but it wasn't capable, then maybe an upgrade would be good. But if you are just using it for Netflix and the internet you may as well have a £200 tablet or Chromebook to be honest 🤣
@@JackWoodhams to be honest what I’m really for and I know an iPad can’t do it, is something to play Euro Truck Simulator 2 on. I’ve seen lots of people playing it and really want to play it myself
When will these youtubers understand the iPad Pro isn’t made for them, it’s a touch based device, it’s for those pros who need to interact with that, artists, architects, designers, if it doesn’t meet you necessities it isn’t for you, it is not obsolete or not useful like you say, it’s just that YOU don’t need it, you don’t take the advantage and potencial it gives.
So this guy has 30 different PCs and laptops and ps5 and ps6 and 7 phones and 14 cameras. So if you’re like him, yea you probably won’t need an iPad. For the rest of us who can only own 1 or 2 other apple devices yes this this a must
Ipads are secondary devices. You may say: no, no i can do that, i can do this. Yes ipads are capable for many things. However, the process is not efficient. If you replace your laptop, with an ipad you will be less productive. You will start to consume more time to accomplish almost anywork. Ipados has its own limits, actually big limits. Even it doesnt offer a proper cursor support. That blue circle mimics the touch input. If you want to boost your productivity with an ipad, use it as a supplementary device. A second screen, a little computer which helps you to do things on your main computer. Than you may notice a difference on your productivity. So, my advice is:spend wisely. If you have a great laptop, ok purchase an ipad. If your main laptop is old and cranky, invest your main device.
I agree with this! If you have a powerful laptop I don't really see the point and I'm not someone who sits on the sofa and browses the web on an iPad. Really unnecessary for me.
“Why I sold it” only reasonable excuse is “I don’t need a tablet at all anymore” I bought the new s7+ and it feels like the dollar store version of my 2018 iPad Pro. And this is coming from a huge Samsung fanboy/Apple hater. The iPad Pro is just unbelievably good to me, it’s been close to perfect besides the 4 gb and small memory (64 gb for me)
Great content.. i have been tempting to buy ipad pro mostly for the pencil use coz i think i like to draw. But i am so afraid that it would b underuse since that i now own macbook air M1 for my office work (with a bit of photo/video) editing. Guess i just do sketches on good old paper when i feel like doing so
You can't use native OS apps like Premiere Pro or Photoshop (the shitty iPad version doesn't count), you can't play AAA video game titles. You can't expand storage without icloud or dongles. It isnt a desktop replacement unless you want to throw away years of using specific apps to simply "adapt to an iPad". I won't miss it.

I ordered a stock ipad pro 12.9 with a magic keyboardbut it’s not too late to cancel it. Is it a worthy investment for netflix, youtube and test preparation for the privates?
That's entirely your call to make, and Apple to offer 14 day returns no questions asked! So I'd say get it and see how it feels, I'd say the 12.9 is really big, it's amazing for content but taking it around can be difficult. If it's just for netflix, youtube and test prep I'd say no in my opinion. That's a very expensive device for such minor use.
I feel like the iPad is a lot more comfortable and easier to use. Something about the touch screen and being able to do so many things lightning fast while being able to carry it anywhere with you anytime.
A conventional desktop feels like a too controlled of an environment while the iPad or touchscreens feel a lot less so. I feel a lot more creative when using an iPad.
That's fair enough! This video isn't saying the ipad is bad, just why I sold it. I don't understand why people are defending the iPad as if I said it wasn't good.
I wasn’t trying to defend anything. I’m just saying what I think about iPads and why I use it over conventional desktops.
I think at the end of your video you asked how we use the iPad or something like that.
@@marsbars4767 sorry I didn't mean you specifically, lots of people getting quite funny about it. Like someone telling me I made a mistake 😭🤣 I get the iPad is a brilliant device though. Just wish I could have found more use for it
@@JackWoodhams Yeah I can see why the iPad isn’t for everyone in every situation. If touchscreen desktop screens like the surface studio was more affordable, I would probably be more inclined to use a desktop like setup but not for everything.
I understand since the pandemic that you haven’t used the iPad as much, but I found getting the Magic Keyboard with my 12.9 inch iPad Pro was a game changer. I can use it to write up my documents and type emails etc. it’s much more convenient than my MacBook Pro as I don’t want to be tied to my desk. I found the keyboard much more easier and enjoyable to use than the MacBook magic keyboard.
For me a 12.9 inch for writing emails and documents is a very expensive choice and ultimately wasn't needed and why with a Macbook are you tied to your desk? It's a laptop so you can use it anywhere?
@@JackWoodhams I guess it comes down to preference. I just find it more convenient than the MacBook. No fan and heat felt. Then I have the portability if I need it and the Apple Pencil. Some of the apps I use are only for iPad as well, so maybe once the M1 MacBooks start having the apps I use available I might change my mind.
@@rahulparmar7537 if it works for you it works for you!
I got a gen 6 base model iPad when they came out and it’s hardly left my side or my hand in 2 years. I’m trying to decide if I should get the new iPad 8 or air 4 cus some times the iPad I have crashes when I’m trying to edit video
If you use it and you need the upgrade then it's worth it, sure!
I just like having it just because why not
valid logic
i use my ipad pro 2020 11 inch as phone and ipad and laptop with a little bit of changes :)
you use an iPad as a phone?
Only thing I use my iPad for 2017 is for :
1.) RUclips
2.) Netflix
3.) Twitter
4.) Reddit
I want an iPad Pro but can I justify it?
If that's all you use it for I'd say no. If you already were trying to use your 2017 iPad for other stuff but it wasn't capable, then maybe an upgrade would be good. But if you are just using it for Netflix and the internet you may as well have a £200 tablet or Chromebook to be honest 🤣
@@JackWoodhams to be honest what I’m really for and I know an iPad can’t do it, is something to play Euro Truck Simulator 2 on. I’ve seen lots of people playing it and really want to play it myself
The regular iPad is enough for you
There always ipad pro 2021
I thought I was gonna be super productive but It ended only for content streaming xdddd
RIGHT!?!?
@@JackWoodhams yeah😂😂
I run an iPad only media house I have 5 iPads I use all of them daily 🙈
If it works for you then it works! 🙌
iPads: obsolete
iPads everywhere : *sold out*
retail therapy... people are buying tech they think they need to increase their productivity and start new hobbies but in reality nobody needs them.
When will these youtubers understand the iPad Pro isn’t made for them, it’s a touch based device, it’s for those pros who need to interact with that, artists, architects, designers, if it doesn’t meet you necessities it isn’t for you, it is not obsolete or not useful like you say, it’s just that YOU don’t need it, you don’t take the advantage and potencial it gives.
That's literally what I say in the video if you care to watch it.
Can you edit Atomos Ninja video files on the iPad Pro?
Depends what editor you use
@@JackWoodhams, I use luma fusion. What do you use to get the footage from the Ninja into the iPad?
@@PeacefulMoments1844 Luma Fusion doesn't support ProRes.
@@JackWoodhams, any other iPad editing software that does?
i use my ipad for nearly everything when i'm not sitting at a desk. Don't need a laptop for most tasks
So this guy has 30 different PCs and laptops and ps5 and ps6 and 7 phones and 14 cameras. So if you’re like him, yea you probably won’t need an iPad. For the rest of us who can only own 1 or 2 other apple devices yes this this a must
I have a pc, MacBook and phone? 😂 Think you exaggerated a little there.
And why do you have to have 1 or 2 apple devices? Why apple?
Ipads are secondary devices. You may say: no, no i can do that, i can do this. Yes ipads are capable for many things. However, the process is not efficient. If you replace your laptop, with an ipad you will be less productive. You will start to consume more time to accomplish almost anywork. Ipados has its own limits, actually big limits. Even it doesnt offer a proper cursor support. That blue circle mimics the touch input.
If you want to boost your productivity with an ipad, use it as a supplementary device. A second screen, a little computer which helps you to do things on your main computer. Than you may notice a difference on your productivity.
So, my advice is:spend wisely. If you have a great laptop, ok purchase an ipad. If your main laptop is old and cranky, invest your main device.
I agree with this! If you have a powerful laptop I don't really see the point and I'm not someone who sits on the sofa and browses the web on an iPad. Really unnecessary for me.
“Why I sold it” only reasonable excuse is “I don’t need a tablet at all anymore” I bought the new s7+ and it feels like the dollar store version of my 2018 iPad Pro. And this is coming from a huge Samsung fanboy/Apple hater. The iPad Pro is just unbelievably good to me, it’s been close to perfect besides the 4 gb and small memory (64 gb for me)
Do I need any other reasons?
a 12 inch drink coaster
It literally was!
Great content.. i have been tempting to buy ipad pro mostly for the pencil use coz i think i like to draw. But i am so afraid that it would b underuse since that i now own macbook air M1 for my office work (with a bit of photo/video) editing. Guess i just do sketches on good old paper when i feel like doing so
I wish someone gave me the same advice 8 months ago 🤣
iPad Pro does everything ...you made a wrong decision
You can't use native OS apps like Premiere Pro or Photoshop (the shitty iPad version doesn't count), you can't play AAA video game titles. You can't expand storage without icloud or dongles. It isnt a desktop replacement unless you want to throw away years of using specific apps to simply "adapt to an iPad". I won't miss it.
@@JackWoodhams so u are using m1 mac?
@@simply6162 no I have a Windows PC and a MacBook Pro
I would prolly buy it just for procreate honestly 😂
Basically why I did, regrets
Is the pac man a real object
what lol
what's that pacman ghost?

@@JackWoodhams thanks!
Sell it and buy the 11 inch 128 Gb
The point is that I don't need an iPad. I'm not buying another one.
Same thing happened to me 😢
you didnt use it, right?
@@JackWoodhams Bought it with lot of expectations, thought I'll be editing photos and do other stuff but not using it.
@@sumandas3619 yeah, sell it! it still gets a good price I sold mine for £975!
For how much did you buy it?
@@sumandas3619 £1069
You need help
Because I sold my iPad?
I expected more tbh. So there isn’t really a downside to the iPad Pro. You just sold it because you didn’t need during a pandemic.
How pointless
Who told you to expect more? This video is about why I SOLD IT. Everyone's opinions will differ and this video is about my specific experience.
