I know this video was a long time coming… hope you all enjoy! This video is dedicated to my late grandfather who recently passed. I love you grandpa Ramon 🙏🏼❤️ 1929-2024 🕊️
I was so outraged of not seeing any iPad battery test videos and finally your video popped up. Tysm! And Rip for your grandfather’s passing. Sending love ❤.
Also, holy crap that switch to OLED screens on the iPad pros was a smart decision! That is a HUGE improvement in battery life! Especially on the 13 inch iPad Pro!
no, OLED played probably a neglibeable role, as it only matters on dark screens and on bright ones it can consume more battery than LCD, and most of the time there wasn't a dark screen, M4 made all the difference
@@sublimechimpit was stand-by time with screen-on. And the Pros used a lot less power. Probably due to the ProMotion display running a much lower refresh rate of 10 (?) frames per second vs 60 fps.
@salimserin8629 iPad battery life depends on how you use it. More intense tasks use more battery, and if you’ve been using your iPad for over a year then it’s battery will start to degrade.
13 hours and 4 minutes for 13 inch and 11 hours and 16 minutes for 11 inch is crazy. Those 2 hours difference is surprising considering 11 inch got the edge on previous iterations
I have the Ipad Air 11in M2. Bought it on 12/13/24 and am going to return it. THE BATTERY LIFE SUCKS SO BAD. I have to charge it 2-3 times a day. It was 100% this morning at 8a and I've had maybe 20 minutes of screen time. I'm down to 36%. Background App Refresh turned off as well as notifications/reminders. STILL DRAINS LIKE CRAZY. This sucks so bad.
I'm glad I got the 11" Pro instead of the 11" Air which I initially wanted to get. Fortunately my Pro only needs to be charged every other day in regular use cases and once a day in heavy use cases.
As someone who upgraded from the m2 12.9in to the M4 13in I have definitely noticed that the M4 gets better battery life than the M2. Definitely not the upgrade for the normal consumer but there is definitely a bit of a difference in battery life.
@@heatcool8932 The Reason Is Why M4 Was Better Than M2 Is Because Of 3nm While M2 Uses 5nm Meaning 3nm = Less Battery Drain And Also More Preformance. Also 3nm Is Way More Efficient Than 5 nm And 4nm. Also I Am Happy For The Apple Event On September 9th This Month! Glad This Helped!
I really like the side comments that are about different topics in your videos, because it just feels way more encouraging and more entertaining to watch when something has comedy and it is not that serious. Keep up the good work!
This iPad battery drain test video hits me a lot before buying iPad, seems like need to wait for a few months before deciding buy the iPad Pro M4. Times to subs this channel ✨✨
I'm curious about as to why the 13 inch outperformed the 11 inch by almost 2 hours. Same chip. Bigger battery but proportionally a bigger display too. Same display tech, it's very interesting. Maybe something to do with its size? More room for heat dissipation, hence leading to less battery drain?
Apple designs their products according to their price range, apple can literally make the apple m2 air last a bit more if they wanted to with a simple update, they just won’t
I bought the air M2 and the battery improve quite a bit after ios 18.2 update but it wasn’t great either. I was averaging about 4-5 hours of screen time but after a little bit of researching on internet and tweaking the settings, I found that disabling all the AI stuff like siri suggestions, allow notifications and learning apps, the battery improve a lot, now i’m averaging 9-10h of mixed use and 6h of intensive use.
Epic battle but we need a generational war. I'm hoping we see here ipad Air m1 vs m2 11 inch...also ipad pro m2 11 inch vs m4 11 inch. I tested on RUclips viewing ipad air m1 vs ipad pro m2 11 inch and they both seemed to have same battery life.
Thanks for the video, but I'm so confused I was thinking of buying an air m2 but the power of the ipad 10 is crazy I guess I should wait for the 11th generation
Amazing that Apple have managed to make the Pro iPads so much more efficient. The combination of M4 processor, OLED ProMotion display and small battery size increase has added 44-54% to the run time. The new iPad Pro is expensive, but you get a lot of improvements for your money. (Edit: corrected percentages.)
Is the battery life of the m2 air really worse than the others or is this just a software issue that they fixed? I want to buy the m2 air but that battery life creeps me out. Any experiences?
I own the iPad Air 4th generation and the battery is soooo bad. I also own the older iPad Air and it’s battery is almost 3 times as good as the the 4th generations. I wanna get a new one and I thought of the 13 inch Air and it seems the battery is slightly better. The Pro is waaayyyy too expensive for me. The regular 10th generation ipad perhaps is the better choice over the Air. But I am curious of the 13 inch display, because I mostly watch shows on my iPad.
For gaming buy mini 7 it’s best.because it has the same processor as iphone 15 pro max a17 pro while 10th gen has a14 chip same as iPhone 12 so my opinion is to buy the mini 7 it’s latest,has better performance etc while having same or lower price.
It is hard to say for sure. The new M4 appears to run cooler, which would suggest it is more efficient. OLED display technology is known for using more power. However, the scaling between the 11 and 13 inch models in this test show the OLED to be more efficient.
I appreciate the UFC like commentary. I am debating between the Pro 11' and the Pro 13'. Still debating if the 11% battery plus the screen size are worth the $300 difference....
Im thinking of getting the 11 inch iPad Pro but also the iPad mini. Both with 5G and 256gb. The mini out performed the air. The pro show its strength and would be a good device overall for more productivity work
Kinda triggered by the differences across the iPads.. doesn’t make the test very reliable.. different screensavers (lighter colored ones drain more battery). Then the camera test, some of them pick up some light, so the display show some kind of blue, instead of black on the other ones.. what also drains more battery… and that’s about where I lost interest in watching the rest of the video
I’m really not surprised about the iPad Air M2’s battery life being garbage. It seems to me like Apple reused the EXACT same battery in the iPad 10th generation and put it inside the 11inch iPad Air which uses a far more powerful M2 chip, using much more energy which ultimately stresses out that weak battery.
i think the ipad air m2 isnt as good because of the larger screen thats 60htz and the m2 chip which is efficient but superpowerful and eats up battery, the pro has m4 chip with 6 efficiency cores and 3 performance cores instead of 4 perfomance cores and 4 efficiency cores it also has promotion to drop below 60htz to save battery the ipad pro m4 has 2 more effciency cores, 1 less perfomance core while still being faster, better chip, promotion, and uses half the power of m2 so i can see why the pros battery is much better than the air

Sorry for your Grandpa loss, Juan. May he rest in peace. If I have to assume, the OLED panel, in addition to creating a significantly better contrast, somehow improves the battery efficiency since none of the iPad models in the previous year tests can survive more than 10 hours.
I was thinking to buy the Air 11", but after seeing the battery results, I'm not sure if I should still go for the Air for longevity reasons or save some money and go for Mini 7 or 10th gen...
I only have one question. Did you take into consideration the age of the batteries and capacity on the Mini and IPad 10 since they are the oldest and also have the oldest batteries?

Finally someone tested the battery life on the new iPad. Thanks
If Apple promised 10 hours of battery life on the iPad Air, how did it drop down 20% being idle for 1 hour?? 10 hours? more like 5..
My one lasts for 3 hours. How is that possible?

I guess the new oled display is significantly more energy efficient so the bigger screen doesn’t effect the battery life not as much as before.
Old 13 inch was mini LED which used more power and 11 inch was LCD
The IPad 10th fits well in the lineup, for people who want a big flat 11” tablet, for less money, plus it often goes on sale…

do you have overheating or quick battery drain problem?
@@hanniejd I've realized it's not a "drain problem" it's just how the ipad is.

Is these ipads are put on full brightness?
did you match all the display brightness? with the drawing test it seems some are brighter some are dimmer.

If I have to assume, the OLED panel, in addition to creating a significantly better contrast, somehow improves the battery efficiency since none of the iPad models in the previous year tests can survive more than 10 hours.
What happend to the iPad having 10 hours battery life and matter what?
The Ipad Air M2 has the same battery problem as well as my Ipad Pro M1 (2021) it drains too fast. For me i'd go for the Ipad Pro M4
11 for the 11 and 13 for the 13 is cool
Not a major difference between 11" & 13", like it's just 39 min

I don’t even own an iPad 😜
Just so you know, you should make all the iPads the same wall paper to make it a fair test

I expected the Pro models to perform well, but not THIS well...
I only have one question. Did you take into consideration the age of the batteries and capacity on the Mini and IPad 10 since they are the oldest and also have the oldest batteries?
It would be nice to add a zoom meeting of 1 hour into your test. Otherwise good job 🎉❤
