    i wish the apple pencil had the feature the surface one does where instead of a double tap for erasing, you just flip the pen round and use the end as the eraser like you would on a normal pencil, it's a really cool feature

    The Logitech Folio Touch keyboard has the Apple trackpad features and it has shortcut buttons at the top like volume and brightness that the Magic keyboard does not. On top of that it was only $150 as opposed to $300. I found it to have more value for its price, so that’s what I got

    Thanks for the video! another thing to note about the feature of apple pencil is pressure sensitivity which the budget alternatives don’t have. Although some budget alternatives offer “tilt function” (if it’s tilted the line becomes thick) it doesn’t really substitute the pressure sensitivity. Another thing is pressure sensitivity mostly matters for drawing purposes and a no issue for note-taking.

    For me it’s the other way round, I take notes and am an artist. First of all, palm rejection is not really on budget styluses below £40 and there are no styluses that have pressure sensitivity that can note-take pretty well as well. I may only have a first gen. Also £300 for a keyboard with trackpad kinda seems a bit silly. Also you talked about the gestures. Tbf, they are side-gimmicks which are great but not the main stuff. Overall for me, the Apple Pencil is a must have for drawings and note-taking. The Magic Keyboard honestly is your choice

    I got my magic keyboard (using it now). I also have the Apple Pencil. I brought the keyboard so that I would have to carry my laptop and my iPad at the same time. However, when I study i use my laptop and take notes with my iPad and pencil. I’m wondering if I should return the magic keyboard and just continue what I have been doing.. or keeping it just in case I need it…. But for the price I paid… I want to get the most use out of it.

    Thank you so much for this video. I've found it really useful as I keep having the temptation to get a stylus but do not want to fork out the money needed for an Apple Pencil 2 (especially as I can't see how it will improve my workflow other than helping me edit photos and have more accuracy on small webpages as a tool). Will likely go with the Logitech Crayon so I get the full Apple Support plus use on older / other iPads.

    I love the flexibility of being able to fold it down and start using the Apple Pencil straight away, the magic keyboard just seems like it needs a little more work in the moment. Although the gestures look pretty sweet on the trackpad!!

I’m leaning towards the iPad but I’m scared it won’t fulfill what I need. Also is there an app where is I’ll be able to save all of my word docs and school things? Is the typing good on the magic keyboard, will I be able to type properly like on a laptop? And lastly do you think that the battery life on the iPad is an issue?

A budget one would probably run around 30-40 US dollars, with average price ranging more towards $60+? We don't actually use 6th gen so we had to ask some of our friends for their recommendations. Here's a good budget one that also has a spot for a stylus in case you decide to get one as well: amzn.to/3jjcO18.
