    The Air is the sweet spot for me, even with its price increase this year. The Pro is nice, but I think it's overkill for my needs.

      Dũng Lê I’d rather buy new than refurb, and I actually prefer TouchID than FaceID. The 120Hz display is pretty much the only benefit that the Pro has that I care about even a little, and even that’s not that important to me.

    I had the iPad Air 2 then I bought the 128GB 2020 11" iPad Pro when it came out in March. I'm not unhappy with my choice; I'd still do it! Why not the Air 4? For the same reason I chose the Pro in March, 128GB! For me, 128GB is the sweet spot for pricing vs my needs; 64GB is too little, a non-starter. I kept looking at the Air3 but the old design and the price for the additional storage turned me off... I held out as long as I could. Now that the Air 4 still had the 256GB upsell problem for me. So, I'd still got for the Pro. It's an easy choice for me.

  • @dwtbb00

    Guys I need a suggestion. I’m considering upgrading to an iPad. This would be my first ever as I’m upgrading from a kindle fire tablet. I’ve been using a kindle since 2002. I mainly use the tablet to play games not video games but simple ones. Browse the web, do online shopping, watch RUclips and stream Hulu, Netflix and Prime movies and occasionally blog. I do have a 128GB iPhone but it’s not even halfway full. Anything below that I find that would fill up too quickly. I have been doing my comparisons and listening to videos like this but to be honest it’s like speaking a foreign language that’s not familiar to me. Right now I don’t know if I should go with a 64gb or 256gb iPad Air or a 32gb or 128gb iPad. I know there’s a big difference when it comes to the price tag. And this is something that I plan to have for several years before upgrading. Which one would you recommend?

    • @MrCaps-sq4bk
      @MrCaps-sq4bk 4 года назад +4

      You know, any iPad will work, i remember when I want one back then.
      a iPad 8th generation will do, just get with 128gb, and your set. Best tablet on the market, you won't regret it.
      If you want a nicer iPad get a iPad Air with a better display, and get one with 256gb, so your iPad last you a while.
      Up to you if you want cellular. But that's my advice.

Especially if you need more than 64gb. With the back to school deal, you get $50 dollars off the pro ipad plus airpods. At 256gb the price difference is only 100 (with the education discount).

      No, really different ways of charging. I have a Pencil 1 for first gen Ipad. Pro 12.9 (that I use now with Ipad Mini 5) and Pencil 2 for 2018 Ipad Pro 12.9.

      Yes, I am able to use those in my 2019 air. Photoshop gets slower though for large photos. Might not be the case with the air 4 anymore, given the 2 gen chip jump.

To talk the screen select all and hit speak is what I do the ipad air it sounds like it has better speakers then the mini. Better speaker means better sound, is it as durable as the mini and do they make a grilla case for it.

    I don’t really need the pro, so I am thinking about getting the air. But I‘m not sure if 64 gb is enough. The only other option is 256 gb. That’s where things get tricky. If I would choose the 256gb option, I could get the pro (128gb) for just a tiny bit more money. And 128 is the sweet spot in my opinion... 64 might not be enough while 256 would be overkill for me. Now I’m lost. What do I do

    At this point it's really nuts that apple is offering a 32gb iPad, flash storage is so cheap it would not cost them much of anything to bump the base iPad 8 to 64GB. I am still using an iPad 6 32gb with cellular, and 32gb has really not been enough even with streaming most everything. I have to constantly remove apps and I don't really store a lot locally, which is a major consideration if not the most important with the iPad upgrade I am planning.

    Thank you for such an in-depth, concise, well organized comparison. I have had my iPad Air 2 128 gb for six years now and it’s still going strong despite not being able to update anymore. This amazing tablet sold me on Apple products for good! That being said, I want to upgrade and have waited for the new launch to decide and am so glad I did! Your review made me certain that the new iPad Air in 256 gb is the perfect choice for me. I have wanted to get ProCreate for about a year now with the second generation iPencil. The iPad Pro, although absolutely amazing and tempting, seemed like overkill, not to mention the out of my budget price. Thank you so much for the clarity your comparison gave me. I can’t believe after such a great video, many of your comments were about a minuscule screen size misquote. Then again, I’m an artist not a techie...lol

      @@Nora-ho2qi I'm a med student as well (Germany). For my lecture stuff (all PDFs) I use a laptop and store everything in Dropbox. Therfore I know how much storage it is: My PDFs from the last 5 years all fit within 10 GB. So you really should be fine with 128 GB in my opinion. But I don't have eBooks though. You should be finde sticking with it. And in the future, there will always be a better buy and the option to sell your current Pro or give it to family.
