Totally agree the iPad is great for supporting/enhancing your workflow. I sold my Mac and I’ve spend the past 6 months using the M4 11” iPad Pro as my primary computing device. I’ve been able to make it work, but have come to the same conclusion as you that it leaves me wanting; iPadOS is just not made to be used as a primary computing OS. When at my desk, my iPad is in a Magic Keyboard and plugged into an external monitor, and I make use of stage manager extensively. It gets the job done but it’s cumbersome and takes longer to do basic tasks like file management. Not to mention limitations like printing, where I can’t even print A3+ paper sizes or use custom icc profiles. The amount of bugs is staggering. The Magic Keyboard stops working often, stage manager crashes, apps crash, not to mention apps like LinkedIn or Google Docs that are not as good as native iPad apps compared to their web counterparts. You literally can’t go full screen on a second monitor using stage manager with the Prime Video app (at least not as of the time of this comment) and Amazon forces you to use the app, so you can’t even use the web version to go full screen - at least Netflix allows you to do this. I’ve ordered an M4 Mac mini and will be using the iPad for what it excels at, namely Apple Pencil tasks and portable productivity. Glad to know I’m not the only one! Thanks so much for making this video :)
Have you tried video editing with the iPad? I’m considering a setup with the Mac mini combined with m4 iPad Pro or the MacBook Pro combined with iPad Pro
I wanna upgrade to the New 13 inch iPad Pro I have the 12.9 M1 IPad Pro and I wanna upgrade maybe next but the only real concern is how thin and durable this new one is because I also somehow bent this iPad pritty baldy on a trip to LA so I’m not sure what do you think?
I'm also thinking of upgrading from the M1 12.9 to the M4 13, but I'm worried it'll be more fragile due to its thinness. This makes me wanna buy the 11 inch M4 Ipad pro but im not sure tho
Speakers are terrible , i bought an ipad pro m4 3 months ago and returned a week later. The speakers were awful i was so surprised for that kind of money u get shit like that. My M1 ipad pro has much better sound. And ure the first reviewer that mentions that and thats a disgrace .
I got the 13 for school and it's been amazing. The brightness upgrade really got the viewability to where it need to be.
I love how this video is truly focused on the perspective of the daily user, not a tech reviewer. Keep it up!!

Can you speak both faster and slower next time 😂
Jks, this video was great. Very informative, quick to the point, no fluff. Thank you, keep it up!

Do you think it’ll be worth buying right this moment?
Definitely if u want to do work quickly
But if u are an college student I would say go for a laptop
How did you set the iPad in vertical mode and make it work with the trackpad?

I agree, speakers are downgraded because of thin design

Nothing special about this tablet. Its just a tablet
Pro Tip to watch his videos: Playback speed on .75 (next time ease up on your sugars, you talk like a hyper active teen)
Sorry unc 😔
Please speak a bit faster next time.
You are talking way too fast
You can slow it down in settings.
You speak way to fast. Unwatchable.
Skill issue
