No skipping. I come here for the stories. ❤

[@DrWiggo]

Since adding the skipping stuff, my thumbs down have greatly reduced. But I appreciate y’all who don’t skip. ❤️

I bought the new 13” Pro 512GB model with the Magic Keyboard. This is to replace my relatively recent 2021 model which I’ve sold to a friend for just under the trade in price. Is the new one worth the price? Of course not. Do I need all that power, no. Is it that much better than my previous model, no. Do I like it, absolutely. The iPad Pro is my favourite gadget ever and has been since its first launch. I have a MacBook Pro but I only use that for work. I love the Magic Keyboard and had to get it again at its stupidly high price. I plan to keep this one longer than the 3 years of my last one but we’ll see how that works out!

[@DrWiggo]

Good points. And I got six years out of my last iPad Pro, so here’s hoping for this one.

dave2d made a point that if you were to blind test with no timers to go through everyday with notes, modeling, animating with pro create, davinci for ipad and lightroom, you would not be able to tell the difference between a non binned and binned m4 ipad pro

[@DrWiggo]

Thanks! That makes me feel better!

[@akumarus]

I am so glued to Dr Wiggo’s videos ! So sincere and refreshing …. Great video :)

[@DrWiggo]

Thanks! Glad you enjoy them!

[@JamieTorontoAtkinson]

I love my iPad.

[@DrWiggo]

They're great!

[@disastermaster1413]

Theres a difference between the 256gb and the 512gb. It’s a small difference with the camera. ProRes video recording up to 4K at 30 fps (1080p at 30 fps for 256GB capacity)

[@manoharmeka999]

That's what Cook does in all possible idiotic ways to cost cut

[@LouRaX]

proably no one cares about that

[@disastermaster1413]

@@LouRaX not too many people take pictures with their iPad

[@DrWiggo]

Yeah, that’s because of the slower speed of the storage (one chip), which I forgot to mention in the video.

[@firstnamelastname2971]

256GB storage is not fast enough for the 4K ProRes video recording that’s why, it’s not to save cost lmao

[@JamieTorontoAtkinson]

I am still watching but how well does the screen look in the sun?

[@DrWiggo]

It's pretty bright, but the sun can overwhelm it a bit (much less than other iPads).

[@UMtiger311]

Now I can buy myself the iPad Air 5

[@DrWiggo]

Good choice.

Really i don't get the whole they tricked me i ordered mine in the first 2min and checked the technical info page not that hard todo. Its more i didn't check what i ordered... The fact they already put 'up to' in their video is a massive heads up.The extra $600 for 16Gig vs 8gig (basicly about 2.5 times more free mem after system is running basic things), 10 vs 9 cores and 512Gig of extra storage is about what we expect from apple. I personally got the 2T+gsm model but ill know ill pay for it ... its apple and i wanted the top spec. I upgraded from the 2020 model.

[@DrWiggo]

I didn’t say they tricked me, I said they misled me. I’m still keeping it. Hope yours works out great for you.
