The M4 iPad Pro and M2 iPad Air are finally here! But there is one 'tiny' detail that Apple forgot to mention...
These are without a doubt wonderful tablets from a hardware perspective, but how could they truly become great? Apple targets designers, artists and the like but what about those who want to make the most of their tablet instead of having to go to a laptop whenever something more complex needs doing?

Personally, if anyone has a laptop, I can't see the need for a keyboard for an iPad. The new pencil looks brilliant for Artists
Actually looking forward to trying those new Pencil features!
Exactly. The things ppl want from an iPad are a little weird to me because I have a laptop. I never wanted landscape camera
I wouldn’t use the pencil if one was included in the box.
I agree… I’ll consider to buy the keyboard only in case of dual boot (but I don’t think it will happen 😢)
I have both the Mac Pro and the iPad Pro 11" with keyboard, and I use the iPad with the keyboard most of the time because of the touch screen and being able to edit photo/video on a touch screen using the pencil while typing notes with the keyboard. I use the Mac to assist with file organization and if I need to type out a lengthy script. I honestly would not want to do without either one.
Tab S9 ultra is infinitely better
Imagine if Samaung released a Snapdragon X based Tab S10 ultra with windows and android support. Apple would have to give the iPad Pro Mac OS support
Actually, at this price, apple shouldn't care if it cannibalise macbooks. The margins more than makes up for it and they should open up the software usage for more ppl to buy the ipad pro...
I agree. Ultimately, we know that Pros and 'Pro-sumers' would still have both anyway
Apple sells more iPads than they do MacBooks. The two reasons why sales have slowed is the lack of any new product in two years and the economic slowdown. Mac sales have also slowed despite recent flurries of new products. iPads are not MacBooks anyway. They have their own characteristics that make them attractive to tablet lovers. I use mine for 90% of my computing needs because they are so much more convenient to use than laptops, and only reluctantly go to my laptop on rare occurrences. iPads basically are computers and do everything you want them to do. MacBooks have their strengths and weaknesses and so do iPads. Neither can do everything the other can do, though there are significant overlaps. I always say to use the tool that works best for you. For me, the iPad is so much better than any MacBook.
I'd buy the iPad Air if it were 120Hz
Man.. I can't believe they're not doing 120Hz in 2024...
Same Here
Same here
@AlexGTech at this point they also can say that, they can't beleive you still only making 60fps content what only require 60Hz to show.. (later it will be usefull, but not than when the games and videos, so almost every content are still just mainly 60fps limited.. 7 years ago when the open world games strugled to keep the stable 30fps, did you really got anything plus with the 120Hz.. each frame refreshed 4 times before you get the new frames.. just wasted your battery..)
My 2017 iPad Pro 10.5 has 120hz 😂 what a joke
Apple:
Let's make better and more desirable iPad ❌
Let's crush piano instead. ✅
LOL Yeah that was a strange ad
Every year apple say the same shit. Unless they tweak the iPad OS, the past 3 generations of iPad pro are basically the same and upgrading the soc doesn't make much difference... Yea they upgraded the display to oled this year ( finally.....!). I have been using M1 iPad pro for almost 3 years and tab s9 plus... The versatility offered by the tab s9 plus is on another league.
100% agree! the hardware has been pretty capable since 2018. And agree, I get so much more out of my Tab S9U
I'm still using my Galaxy Tab 7 Plus. I'm not wasting the money.
It’s a big update to my 2018 pro soo I got the 13 pro coming on Wednesday 😊
If you want a laptop then get one. This product is a tablet.
@@MonkeyMannMacho s7 , s8 and s9 series are much more capable when the software perspective is concerned. Sure the apple silicone may be faster but let’s admit it mate iPad OS needs a big upgrade to keep up with what Samsung is letting us do with their software particularly the dex mode. The iPad is a capable machine , there is no question about that but it is restricted by the os.
Nice video Alex
I’m in the ecosystem and the iPad Pro is my main device so I decided to upgrade from the M1 to the 13” M4 - definitely looking forward to the screen.
Can you come back here and tell me your experience once you get it please, I have 2017 mac air but thinking about iPad Pro 2024
Same
same, please let us know what you think after using it. Thanks!
@@cosmo.didit2will do
How much storage did you get? I wonder if I truly need 16gb ram or just stick with 8gb
My 10.5” iPad Pro from 2017 has lasted me 7 years and it’s finally time to upgrade. The whole notion of upgrading with every release is wild to me. Aside from all the new benefits I’ll enjoy is the use of a 13” sidecar display for my MacBook Pro in my travel work setup. We’ll see what happens at wwdc.
I do remember that model, same here! I skipped the 2018 upgrade and only got the M1 iPad Pro, the display on the 2017 version was getting a bit outdated to be fair. And yes, hoping for some good news at WWDC
Still on an IPP-9.7 so I’m due an upgrade. But I’d prefer the portability of an 11 over a 13.
That said an 11-Air is much better value, and maybe an IP-11 is due later this year.
I went from the same 10.5” Pro to the M1 - should not need to update again till 26 ( same Issue battery )
My M1 iPad Pro is having screen issues so it needs replacing since I'm out of warranty (and Apple Care). Tough call between the new Pro, new Air, and the previous gen Pro. The new Pro is the ultimate splurge but that OLED screen looks sweet.
Me too, I have the same one but I'm NOT turning it in as trade-in, I'm keeping it. I can think of many advantages of having two iPads.
I have hated the display aspect ratio 16:9 since HD TV was invented. I like the closer to square 3:2 aspect ratio display that the iPads and Apple maintains, at least when I am computing. I will always be purchasing iPads and at least 4K monitors in the future. The tablets with 16:9 displays I won’t be purchasing., so most of the Android tablets with the low height 16:9 ratio sucks because I want to view pages tall monitor to read on the internet..
They should make it capable to run mac OS.... it is no point to spend money to buy this and a macbook at the same time, and not to mention carry both on a backpack.....
That must be their challenge, I agree... They must be scared of making the iPad more capable and lose some MacBook sales as a result. For me I'd like to see a better transition between the two at least. Their own apps (Final Cut Pro for instance) doesn't really work well between the two devices.
Oh, but there is - if you are Apple or it's shareholders.
Get whatever product suits you the best. For many folks it’s an iPad.
Well said. Agree totally.
When Apple says pro, they mean 2 pro apps, thats all.
A regular ipad is perfect for 80% of users.
If they throw 120 hz to regular ipads then it will be perfect for 90% of ipad users.
Great point, I’m curious to see how the 60Hz Air behaves…
I'm excited about Tandem OLED display as I found the AMOLED display of the S9 Ultra to be quite dim compared to the 12.9 inch iPad Pro. Oh and the M4 pretty much ensures that it will remain smooth for the next 5-7 years (my 2018 iPad Pro is still as fast as the day I unboxed it. Sadly I couldn't say the same about my Galaxy Tab S4 which runs really really slow now)
I would like to see it in person. Both the M2 & M4 iPadPros are rated at 1000 nits of brightness and the Tab S9 Ultra at 930 nits. Interestingly enough Samsung and LG make the iPadPros display.
I went with the iPad Pro because I can’t have 60 Hz display and no Face ID plus I’ve been waiting on OLED display
I went with the IPad Air 13” because I want the bigger screen and the 128 GB is $ 799. USD - vs. - $1299 USD for the IPad Pro. The Pro is really nice, but I do not need a tablet that powerful, so the OLED display will need to wait until my next replacement.
@@dalbriggssnah oled is better than ips
@@BdgWarehouse$500 more...some people have budgets lol
@@TheBlehCat404 I traded in my old iPad, M2, pro and Apple gave me $470 off the new iPad m4
@@TheBlehCat404I totally understand
The problem that the iPad has is that it runs iPad OS, which for 90% of use cases is just a blown up iPhone OS.
It needs better multitasking and all the features that the same app provides on desktop computers.
I use my old, very powerful iPad Pro everyday … especially to interface with my headless Mac mini via VNC. I am still a few years away from upgrading. But will see what WWDC have in store for me to change my mind.
I am so pleased to hear that you will have both 13-inch models side by side. I would really like to hear what you think of the image quality comparison of both screens. When it comes to viewing photos, between LCD and OLED to my eyes, to date, photos look a lot better on an LCD iPad vs any OLED iPhone.
Only thing ever stopping me getting a Air is the 60 hz display
it’s embarrassing that an $800 tablet still features a display like that today. I was really looking forward to the new 13” Air as a replacement to my M1 12.9” Pro (which is still phenomenal, but the battery is aging after 3 years of heavy use), but this is a no go. Can’t go back from 120hz now.
That is nuts in 2024, not gonna lie
When the pro gets 240hz they will give the base and air 120hz lol 😆
Unrelated, I like the look and feel of the video. What is your setup?
Thank you so much! I’m using a Sony A7Siii with a 24mm f1.4 lens for the talking head shot, filming at 60fps (recently changed from 24fps). My key light is an Aputure 300D mk2 set to 5600 kelvin and sitting at about 45 degree to my left, and I’ve got some Godox tubes spread around with teal and orange colours. There’s a TV in the background just set to some ambient photo and another light Godox VL150 at the back. The b-roll shots varies a lot in lenses but mostly a tamron 28-75mm and a Sony 90mm for macro shots.
Great video - but when will reviewers (and Apple) think outside the 0.05% of the population that edit videos daily? How does it perform with the MS suite? Or is it no better than my 2017 10.5" ipad pro? Apple need to address the real "elephant in the room" - the 99.5% of users.
Agreed. It’s a general “issue” with RUclips. They always look at it from a video editors point of view.
Can’t blame them though. That’s basically the main job of many RUclipsrs
yup, that's my point about being able to actually be productive on it.
Not to mention how annoying their mantra of “Apple gives us”. Apple doesn’t give us. We’re not children, I’m not. Maybe they are. But Appl is certainly not Santa Clause. I’m very disappointed of the current iPad lineup and price latter. Cash grab became the classic appl move.
Well put. I’m tired of hearing about video editing. MS office doesn’t work naturally and it doesn’t support a mouse well either (cursor is no good). Also the OS needs more functionality like in MacOS. No reason why not as the processors are now the same and so is memory and storage. As a long time and regular user of an iPad for many years I still cannot avoid owning a Mac of some kind. That really disappoints
Appl used to repeatedly say „for the rest of us“. Back in the days, when anti trust used to be a hammer to throw at such.
Battery size is basically the same and battery life as well. M4 uses less power, but the stacked OLED screens use more, so you’re not getting more battery life.
Can’t wait for the tab 9 ultra vs video ❤
100%! Thank you🙌🏼
Me too! How will the S9 compare to Apple's latest and greatest.
ordered 13" pro! 5.1mm ! oled. stupid fast. can't wait
I am a gadget lover and as gadgets go, this design looks great! I really hope we get even better software to go with it soon!
Dude, that African song at the end is f***in awesome! 😆
Love it!! It’s called Umbele by Ebo Krdum
When is Apple going to start saying the “as much as/up to” price-tags rather than the “start at/from” price-tags? I want to start hearing the max configuration price on those tablets. Tired of hearing the minimum baseline prices all the time.
At this point it makes more sense to merge the iPad line with the macbook products.
Bring MacOS to iPad and sell it as a full bundle with the keyboard case + pencil. The final product would be similar to Microsoft's Surface pro, and that's a good thing.
This way you have Macbooks for those who want a full laptop and "MacPads" for those in need of a more versatile device.
Hello sir, I want to buy an iPad, and I want to use it for a maximum of 7 years. Which iPad can I buy, the iPad Air 2024 or the iPad Pro M4? And I want to use it for studying, gaming, occasional photo and video editing. Please reply me
Air for sure, if you don't mind the 60Hz display...
@@AlexGTech Thank you so much, sir, for the reply. You deserve more subscribers; you are such a nice guy. I see you reply to almost everybody.
Disappointed with 8GB RAM, 16 GB is available only for 1TB and higher ROM
that old trick! Got to spend more on storage to get more RAM...
I hope the battery life on my ordered M4 is even better than my M1 iPad Pro. I also hope the M4 13" Magic Keyboard and M4 iPad is lighter than the same combo on my M1!
I’m waiting for next month to see if they do anything with iOS. If so I would consider new hardware but if not my 10.5 Pro is still just fine.
absolutely the right approach!
The iPad Pro M4 may be the fastest Apple processor. I will compare it to the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra.
Perfect computers for artists that can't run the best art programs. Ipad succccks and I am writing this with my ipad pro
iPadOS need to change this year or at least iPad can run macOS apps, or it can run 2, 3 apps simultaneously, that's okay. The chip is already too good without any software can use it.
Apple failed foldable phones
Apple failed AI assistant
Apple failed smart car
Apple failed nano led display
Apple failed Apple ring
Apple CAN replace MacBook Air with iPad, but they DON'T because they still want you to buy both.
TOO MANY mistake, even with the thing they can and only them can do, they don't. What's next? I feel like Apple is right at the position before Steve Jobs go back, they do many things but all was failed.
I fail to understand why Apple is so rigid about everything, and they never listen to user feedback. iPadOS and iPad is the worst combination ever. And, i feel being a trillion dollar company, they can put in some effort to understand that. Tim Cook lacks vision for how to make products great, all he cares about is the profit regardless of how useful a product, that expensive, is to the users.
There needs to be someone new at Apple who is more enthusiastic about the process of creating products for the people. It’s a shame that just the new base 13” IPad Pro with the pencil and the keyboard coasts you $1700+, and being a logical person i can get a way more powerful laptop for that cost.
If you can’t make use of an iPad, then it’s safe to say that you shouldn’t buy it….
You wouldn’t buy a $1,000 skateboard & complain it can’t do more than just being a skateboard…
Buy yourself a thin & light MacBook Air 💻 for $1k & save yourself money
Christopher Lawley runs his entire channel on the iPad. It depends on your case use scenario. That is why I disagree with a lot of creators.
I know. I am slightly skeptical but I know some people who do use the iPad for everything. I honestly couldn't right now, it's too limiting.
If I had to give up my 2d Gen iPad Pro with Magic Keyboard and Pencil or my MacBook Air with M whatever number chip it has it would be the iPad setup.
Just ordered the mini
Seems pointless to buy a new huge ipad when we all have a macbook right 😊
Kinda sad about no new mini 😢Steve would have gave us a new mini
These iPads are the same thing we’ve seen for the past 6 years. Yet another spec bump with little to no changes. The only thing the iPad needs to be great is macOS.
holy wow the color grading on this channel
Literally made my day 🥰
Even if it launched with an M8 I'd not be interested and I'd rather by a laptop for those silly prices.
Why can't it be made water resistant?
Ordered the 11" iPad!
Nice! Which one did you go for?
I think the new iPad's look incredible, I'm feeling the same as you with the need for a better OS for iPad but I'm excited to see how they perform and will be looking forward to your review videos on this 😀 Great video today!
Fingers crossed we will get something at WWDC, and thank you!!
Where in the world is your accent from? So so hard to make out what you're saying.
More overpriced apple rubbish
The Air is priced ok, but... 60Hz 😅
The Paperlike @4:20 sponsorship is GOOD. Nantotexture being binned by Apple to just the 1TB version is annoying. Apple should offer it as an adhesive add-on. I use a product like Paperlike and it MAKES ME HAPPY. Using the pencil on the glass screen without it is like eating Jell-O with a butter knife, a slippery mess.
Nice, I like it too, I only recently started using it and I am definitely a convert. If you don't mind I will share your comment with the brand, they will be happy to hear that!
@@AlexGTech Sure, you're welcome to.
how about keeping the same size and double the fking battery life...
I'm getting the 11" Pro!! Can't wait!
the good iPads have headphone jacks and therefore this is useless
Still missing 45 hr battery life and better camera sorry NO sale
There is only 1 thing I could do better with the new iPad compared to my m1: videochats. That’s all. So without a major iPadOS change I can’t see myself upgrading for years. There’s no difference in performance cause it doesn’t matter if my m1 is 3x more powerful than the apps i use need or the m4 is 15x more powerful. And what’s the fetish with the thinness? No one ever asked for a thinner iPad Pro. But everyone would be happy to finally get more battery life than the first iPad 10 years ago
Really good point on iPadOS, couldn’t agree more
As a lifelong Apple junkie with 3 of the newest iPhone’s and 5 of the newest iPads including a 12.9 TB Pro this announcement of the upcoming iPads has convinced me that I will be buying a Galaxy Ultra Tab S9.
Don't blame ya! and I agree, the iPhones desperately need better software too.
Would love to see a dual boot in the iPad pro. MacOS would be a god send for those who wish to make use of the hardware.
That might be a bridge too far for Apple, but a better integration between MacOS and iPadOS, especially when working on their own apps would be awesome!
@@AlexGTech I'll take anything our corporate overlords will deem good enough to sell us. But hopefully things will change after the DOJ nails apple into the ground. 🍏😁
M3 is already powerful enough. I’ll switch back to Apple immediately if they enable Mac OS on the iPad. However $3000 price feels wrong.
I don’t care about the thinner design.
I think that thinner design is nice but agree, would swap that any day for a more efficient iPadOS
Samsung Tab S9 Plus/Ultra with iPad's professional app portfolio is the ultimate tablet, iPad offers so little and is so restrictive for the price you pay
It’s quite targeted at certain types of professionals. For my use in basic productivity tasks, I have to agree that the Tab S9 Ultra offers more. I’m hopeful for WWDC and seeing whether they make iPadOS more flexible but won’t hold my breath
All they need to do is macOS with a touch UI and that would be a game changer for the iPad. If I could get access to the power of the unix system I could use an ipad for all my work.
Exactly!
Once I can use the iMac OS on my iPad Pro and bootcamp Windows on a partition. I’ll stay with my 2018 iPad.
Can't blame you... I think dual boot is a bridge too far, but something a bit more flexible isn't too much to ask, given how powerful this thing is
I'm so bored with the apple iPad. All power that can't be utilised, just a pointless IOS with all the HP and no ooomph!
We've been here a few times, right? Such a shame, I wonder how good the iPad would be by now if SJ was still in charge
Yes - for mere mortals, the standard $349 iPad is an exceptional device. If you want just a bit more, perhaps the larger screen, splurge a bit for the Air (which is ironically heavier than the Pro). I do agree for everything announced, the Air is probably the most compelling for most folks. Of course, if OLED is _really_ wanted, go Pro. I use my current M1 Pro to make money, so in addition to being a business expense, I can justify the higher price for my use case. I actually use the iPad Pro as a Pro. It is far more than a super awesome Netflix device. My wife has the 11 inch Air (previous gen) and loves it - I think we got it at Target for $499, but honestly, she could get by with just the 10.9" new iPad.
1600 nits versus the battery, If I was ever to buy another tablet, it would be an s9 but again if!!! No reason for a tablet these days,
I do enjoy the aspect ratio on the TabS9U
The only limit they are pushing is price, go from 256 to 2 TB, you will understand.
There is nothing new.
That’s crazy… I went for 256GB, I refuse to pay that much for extra storage
I bought the M1 12.9” pro and I love it, but I can’t go iPad only until Microsoft Office products work better on it. Word, Excel, and PPT are basic and Teams is so buggy that I can barely use it. Plus we need external camera support outside of FaceTime. Once they do this, I’ll drop $2,500 on the iPad Pro. Until then, I’ll buy bourbon and keep wishing.
yeah, I agree with you brother. Apple company makes a small thing very big in front of the general public.
Yup, we’ve been here before haven’t we?
I am sure the people producing the iPad must have suggested the idea of implementing macOS to the device, maybe even having both that you can switch sort of DeX by Samsung. I really just would like to hear the motivation of saying "no". Are they really struggling to make touchscreen on macOS work perfect or are they just scared the market share of macbooks will go down for average users because they will have the option of iPad Pro M4?
iPad OS is the weakest point now. proper filesystem, ability to use native mac os apps- fully featured apps would be really nice. Abiltiy to run virtual machines, dockers- windows 11 etc would really kick the sales up. So much power but poor use of that available power.
More power than a MacBook from a few years ago, yet what can we use all that power for? Exceedingly little.
Shame… I agree
I have an M1 iPad Pro 512GB 12.9". It cost a lot then and I won't be upgrading anytime soon. Probably not for another 10 years or more. I bought the Pencil and Magic Keyboard and don't use either.
Kinda sucks how they made it incompatible with the old Apple Pencil forcing you to buy a new one.
Should be included in that price... 😢
A 300 euros for a tablet from huawei with a keyboard included in the price. Compare this with the keyboard from apple is more expensive than a 8Gb of Ram, 258Gb storage with a snapdragon gen 1
I'll wait for your full video about them, but my opinion about the Magic Keyboard and the Pencil are positive....... kinda. Let me explain. I think the upgrade to the keyboard is huge, mostly because of the glass or ceramic trackpad with pressure sensitivity; the old keyboard, which I used extensively and I still have attached to my M1 12.9, had an awful plastic trackpad that didn't really fit well with the price tag. The Pencil is amazing, it brings a few new features that are huge quality of life improvements and help speed up simple tasks you need to do quickly, like changing color in your pen while note taking in class. So, why don't I have an entirely positive opinion? Well.... lock-in is awful when it comes to technology, and obviously it's worse when it's EXPENSIVE technology. The lack of compatibility of both these new accessories with M1 and M2 hardware is insane to me. I can get behind the Pencil needing a different magnets array, but just sell another version for the older iPads with the old internal arrangement, it's not like they removed that one from their store or lowered its price anyway.... And I can't stand the new keyboard being exclusive to the new Pro. Not in a million years was making a thicker base to counterbalance the old iPads an issue at any point whatsoever. It's madness what they did this time around, and I'm a huge Apple customer so you can imagine how angry I am. I was waiting for the new Pencil with huge anticipation, but I was never ever going to buy the new iPad Pros not even if they came with a De Longhi Barista included in the box (so you might say they'd really make me coffe xd). As you said and have been saying for years now, the hardware was fine already back in 2018. It was more than fine, I might add. Even in laptops the M1 chipset is still top class and the M1 MB Pros are still to find a workload that can be exceeded by more than the smallest niche you could imagine (that being 3d designers and huge producers and stuff like that). So yeah, what's the point in buying any iPad Pro when the real problem lies within. When are we going to get a real upgrade to iPadOS? I don't want MacOS on iPads, but what people are driving me mad about is not complaining about having iOS on the iPads. On social media you get hit all the time with the "if you want MacOS on an iPad, just buy a MacBook". Well, I do have an M3 Pro MB Pro, but the iPad is still useless and is basically an upscaled iPhone with Pencil support. Back when they announced iPadOS to be a separate OS, a standalone, we were all excited and thrilled. Well, years later what did that get us? Nothing. Or... well.... you might say Stage Manager, but I'd laugh to your face since that thing is the single worst piece of software development to ever come out of the Apple HQs. It doesn't work on Macs, it surely doesn't even begin to function on iPads. So I don't know. I'll be waiting for the keynote next months just to hear them say "you can now set a separate wallpaper to your external monitor and have more than 4 windows open at the same time... exclusively on M4 iPad Pros!" and I guess they'll give us free arranging for the home screen of the iPhones. Not even pretending to be excited, but you know. Sorry for the long comment, but this even really triggered me.
About the Air being the "students choice", sorry man, that's not true. The 13" in Italy starts from 980 euros, which means you are basically at an 11" Pro and let me tell you, the 120hz is a must if you are going to take notes for hours every day. I've been there, I've done that, you NEED 120hz or you'll f your retinas. It's not like typing on a laptop, it's really bad writing on a non-laminated 60hz lcd display.
Also, to clarify, the reason for all this hatred towards them not improving the software for the iPad Pros is that an iPad Pro 13 with Keyboard and Pencil costs over 2k euros and I'd guess around 2k dollars. That's MacBook Pro territory guys, I don't know what you're thinking if you even begin to say "that's fine to me".
I think the M4 iPad Pro hardware is absolutely stunning, extraordinary. But Apple are hell bent on not wanting to port Mac OS on it. Having said that, I just wonder if there is some critical software UI tweek that could really open up and transform iPad OS for "power-users".
Just saw a video where he was buying one for the equivalent of $3600 USD. Seriously? People have more money than brains.
I cannot wait for the Tab S10 series. I really hope Samsung goes strong with it.
That display we have on the S24U... Please Samsung 🙏🏼 make it happen
It’s ridiculous that IPads can’t run full MacOS these days. Purely a profit decision rather than being innovative
If they put Mac OS on their iPad, people won’t buy MacBooks anymore
That's what Apple is afraid of. Similarly if they make the MacBook display touchscreen is game over for a lot of iPads
i think the new migac keyboard is a huge step forward.
the escape button alone is worth the upgrade and the new glass trackpad is sooo much better than the old crap!!!!
Here we go again, your going to switch from M2 iPad Pro to M4 13 inches 😂
Did you max out?
It’s been smacked with apple 5G cripple hammer,that’s sucks ..
Yeah, I wonder how long they can continue to limit these tablets for
What you are asking for has nothing to do with iPadOS. They have to do with features on apps. The OS is just fine and does everything it needs to do. When people say the iPad can’t take full advantage of the M1 (or M2 or M4), they can never explain how. There are no features of the M-series chip that cannot be utilized by every app. The OS puts no restrictions on that. It’s up to developers to take advantage of them, not the OS. The OS usually sits in the background taking up 2% of CPU or less. The usual response is they want Finder. Exactly how does Finder make apps more useful? Sorry, but dragging files around does not make anyone more productive. It’s also impossible to have in a sandboxed environment, a fundamental security feature of iPadOS. When you criticize Final Cut Pro, note that is not part of the OS. It is a work-in-progress app that only came out a year ago. Feel free to criticize Apple for being slow on FCP, but blaming iPadOS is nonsense.
I will forgive you for not knowing I mentioned these points in my previous videos, no one can expect people to know everything right? Plus I am just a tiny channel here, but I have discussed this at length because I was curious myself.
It turns out that it's only been since iPadOS 17 that developers could realistically take advantage of that power, but most didn't, even though technically this was possible since iPadOS 15. Very few apps like Procreate were clearly allowing the apps to go to that 12GB RAM limit for example.
Your point on Finder carries some weight, but I'd translate that into better File Management. This DOES make a big difference and many people I know who use iPads hate the file management and end up paying extra for 3rd party apps that deliver better functionality. They wouldn't buy File Manager apps if they didn't think that would make them more productive.
Not sure how you drew the FCP and iPadOS connection, I was referring to the announced new features that Apple mentioned in the event - maybe I wasn't clear but my main point is about iPadOS and how I'd love for the integration with MacOS to be more seamless.
As for FCP... What I'd like as a Final Cut Pro user is for the iPadOS to be flexible and let me use the same project on both Mac and iPad. I don't mind having to transfer the project using SSD and Thunderbolt but right now this is only possible one-way, not both ways which makes FCP on iPad a gimmick for users who don't actually edit a lot, or only edit small projects.
No point showing 'Pros' rigging their cameras and moving stuff to the iPad if that workflow doesn't involve a Mac. My first 5 seconds of this video which is not even that advanced would never be done on the iPad as there is no plugin support, even though this was a 'coming soon' feature. If Apple want to make the iPad Pro a serious Pro tool, then it needs to enable it to work with their own ecosystem of Pro tools, like the Mac.
@@AlexGTech Thanks for the reply! One thing to start, not all of my comments were directed at you, but much at the comment section.
All valid points on the apps, but most criticisms have nothing to do with the OS. Much of my comments are due to the disrespect so many RUclipsrs (not just the creators but the commenters) show towards iPadOS as if it were the impediment towards powerful applications. It is not. I haven’t watched all your videos so I don’t know everything you’ve mentioned, so if you have, great! The main comments I see in every iPad video are that iPadOS is somehow an OS with training wheels that limits what apps can do. The main point I am trying to make that such commentary is misdirected. Developers can make apps as powerful as the ones that run on MacBooks with no real limitations except the ones they impose themselves. The only requirement Apple asks for is that apps must work with touch, hardly an unreasonable requirement for a tablet. Sometimes apps take a long time to come out simply because it is hard to write a touch interface. Developers have spent four decades writing for a mouse and keyboard interface, but only a fraction of that time developing touch interfaces. I think this impatience is the reason so many RUclipsrs and commenters demand macOS on the iPad, even knowing the user interface would be horrible on a tablet.
The irony is that most of the commenters do know you can have powerful apps and features on an iPad. They lamented Apple putting an M1 chip into an iPad as overkill that no one can take advantage of. Then when Apple and others create apps with M-series only features or OS features like dual-screen Stage Manager or virtual memory, they complain those features don’t work with older A-series chips. I would close by saying that complaints are misplaced. They should be directed more at app developers, including Apple’s apps, rather than towards the OS, itself. It simply gets tiring seeing all the “iPad is a toy” because of iPadOS comments that are all too common. There are so many people doing productive work while running powerful apps that I wonder why half the comment threads are full of this.
They couldn't even increase the refresh rate on the airs 😂 mini is always the way to go. Price/tech ratio.
You know how I feel about this 😅 personally the focused aspect of iPad OS is what I like about iPad. I’m just happy they didn’t introduce a notch to it :D. Also I don’t think people are hyping it up enough that full blown Zbrush is coming.
Personally not keen on the thin aspect of it. I just think I’ve sacrificed cooling and battery life for something I don’t need.
Also the Apple Pencil pro is disappointing. Would like a battery free experience and an eraser. The squeeze function looks like will be like the tap feature, always affected by accident. So I’m gonna disable it.
I’ll wait a few months and see what the reviews say then. Most apps wouldn’t have implemented the new architecture on launch anyway. I remember the M1 took 6 months for some of the apps to take advantage of ram and horse power.
haha yeah, I think you are THE audience Apple is targeting the iPad Pro at. Lots of people are saying the same about the thinness. I am with you on that tapping. Whenever I use notability I am constantly shooting blanks because I have the eraser selected by mistake 😅
And great point about the time it takes for apps to start optimising. Looking forward to putting it to the test though and may need to pick your brain again on the best apps to use!
@@AlexGTech no worries, happy to help. I’m hoping to see a Blender like app coming to the App Store. There is a 3D animation app called Naomi, but the subscription nature of it has kept me away from it. For now we have good sculpting apps, but wouldn’t mind a nice one for animation that doesn’t involve subscribing.
Looking forward to your review!
Iv got an ipad pro with M1. "The bigest ipad update ever"..wtf.. never going to see an apple event live again.
iPad Pro: “First OLED tablets with LTPO, first OLED tablets with a tandem stack, matte nano-texture display, brightest and longest life OLEDs in tablets, lightest and thinnest OLEDs tablets as well due to glass thinning and TFE”.
but... iPadOS 😅
@@AlexGTech Every software has room for improvement, but there’s nothing better on the market than iPadOS.
I’d love to see a iPad Pro M4 and S10 Ultra Comparison when Samsung releases this summer.
Just been spending the last hour watching videos of so called tech gurus shitting on the new iPad. I don’t know what these cry babies want..just buy a damn MacBook if you don’t think the iPad is worth your valuable time..
Welcome back to another episode of WHO GIVES A MONKEY’S 😂
@@AlexGTech Thin skinned are we?
I am intrigued by the OLED display but I think the landscape camera is going to be a dealbreaker for a portrait user like me. My hand is constantly going to cover it while holding the tablet, making face id a pain in the butt.
Tricky one, I wonder if they could have done a faceID camera under the display, and kept the landscape too...
@@AlexGTech Yeah, that's what I was thinking of as well. Perhaps I'll keep my old ipad pro a bit longer and upgrade when they can do that.
heres an idea, what if they bumped up the resolution? all this performance and display tech, at an insane price, and yet the resolution remains unchanged.
They have alot of Idea. Wait first they want to make sure how to repairing first
They would crush it if they figured out how to run MacOs..
ipad pro needs to run some sort of mac OS not just a ios phone like os
M2 IPad mini for the win, coming Sept.
That might be my first iPad Mini!
“Magic Keyboard” doesn’t have data transfer ports or a sd card slot still. I’ve been m1 iPad only for 3 years for my photography work and I do love it but the new devices have just Made me regret buying it cause they software locked the hover feature to m2. I won’t but a new iPad again I’ll get this m4 iPad in 2 years second hand. I can’t support these prices and forced upgrades in storage to get ram or screen upgrades. I understand wanting to maximize profit but it is crazy how much they already charge for nand storage that’s basically free to them. If Samsung gets that same display on the tab s10 I would consider switching only thing holding me back is the iOS ecosystem
Dual boot ipad OS, Mac OS… that’s the killer app.
A pro device should have more than 8mb ram.
oooofff didn't realise it was THAT low!
And iferg would just clap it when he ragebabies again.
But what’s the use of so much power when there are rarely high-performance games/ apps on the App Store?
May I know what's the plugin title at beginiing? looks great.
Thank you, I used 3 in the intro. The flying footage behind me is called mKBHD 'Additional Footage' by MotionVFX. The text is a basic one called mKinetic2 and I used mRotoAI to mask me, both also from MotionVFX 🥰 If you want to check them out: geni.us/MotionVFX_Alex
@@AlexGTech thanks alex.
hey i currently own an imac 2017 which works pretty well but i need a portable device so should i buy the ipad pro or macbook air (considering i own an imac which i can use at home)
I would say it really depends on what you work with when on the move. If you use lots of apps at the same time and require a bit more 'grunt' for things like photo editing, music production, etc. the MacBook Air is an awesome option. If you are just browsing, light creative work and maybe a bit of emails/Zoom calls, etc. then the iPad is the best option.
Apple seems committed to selling crippled and overpriced iPads.
I was so hopeful they would announce a couple of 'new' iPadOS features, even if they don't actually launch them till WWDC
One 7th generation iPad Pro can cost as much as $7,039 USD! This includes all the bangs and whistles and is from the country that sells the priciest Apple tablets.
