My all time favourite laptop was the 11 inch Mac air laptop. The screen was large enough and the convenience of a 2 pound device is just charming. I will move to an 11 inch pro with both the keypad and pro penr. Totally awesome...
I wish they would change the Pro sizing a bit. A 12” and 14” instead. A 12” would fix those keys on the ends and be perfect. I also think it makes side by side a whole lot better.
11" is superior this gen. I had both the 12.9 and the 11" last gen. The extra 2" in height creates a weird aspect ratio for viewing content. The 11" is much better suited to watching widescreen videos and is significantly more portable. The 11" is a perfect tablet and the 13" is a mediocre laptop and a bad tablet.
I personally still opted for the 13” for the large workspace, the weight difference is helping. And as a woman I don’t mind bringing bigger bags for that
Finally a woman, expressing how larger is not an issue because we always can use a larger bag. I opted for the 13” myself…I went back and forth….I have the 10.9 from 2019 128 gigs and I opted for the 1 terabyte…I didn’t get the expensive screen I got the paper like film….I think I will be fine. 😊
I absolutely loved this video. I decided to go with the 11” as well. For my travels and days of chemo it fits into my little bellroy pack which is just perfect! And that’s even with the keyboard attached too! Noah, your videos are calming and i appreciate your work.
I love the 11inch size of the iPad because it’s just the right size to work with and watch content especially on travel days. It’s not awkward also when you watch a movie on the plane. And not to bulky when you put it in your bag.
I have the iPad Mini (which I love), and I replaced my 11” with a 12.9” recently, my takeaway is the mini is pretty much a 1 app device, adding a second app is clunky. The 11” is a 2 app device and the 13” is a 3-4 app device but the 4:3 aspect ratio means usable screen size is not much larger for video content consumption than 11” in case you were hoping to use it for movies. I would say the 11” is probably best overall but if you want a secondary/external display for your mac, the 13” is a lot better for that, plus the still excellent miniLED in the last generation sells for 1/3 of the price of the M4 equivalent, that’s a huge price difference.
I finally went the 12.9 route and am about to do some traveling. Looking forward to seeing how that size kind of fits into an airplane seat experience.
I have both the 13in and 11in M4 iPad models and idk why but the 11in feels like it has bigger bezels. It’s probably the difference in size that makes it look that way. But idk for me personally I enjoy using the 13in a bit more whenever I wanna be at home and watch content and do some work. But the 11in is perfect when I’m at work and have to be in the go and observe different departments and take notes. Either way love both and how they fit into my life.
I just got a pretty much max tier ipad pro 11 from 2022 with the m2, 1TB of storage and 16GB of ram and cellular connections for about 1000€. I am super happy with it. i use it for taking notes in school and connect to our server at work with MS RD-Client. I just love the OS, even tho i know its limited and holding the hardware back.
I’ve had a play with both in the Apple Store and I’m opting for the 13” when I’ve saved up for it. I prefer the larger screen for note taking, content consumption and making/adding to word documents or power points, writing emails, etc
Completely agree with everything in the video. I have the 12.9 4th gen IPad Pro, I went with the 11’ m4 this time around. I take my iPad with me everywhere so portability won over screen size. I haven’t gone back, 12.9 is just collecting dust. I’ll probably sell it.
I have a 2020 12.9” and a 2022 11” and like both but for me, I love the 12.9 so I kept that one and gave the 11 to my daughter. Now I want a 13 M4 for sure!
I tried both the 11" and the 13" a ton and decided on the 13. I much prefer the larger keyboard it felt more natural and easier to type with. The speakers are dramatically better and louder on the 13 as well. Pair this with more screen space and more immersive entertainment I couldn't downsize to the smaller version. If I were carrying the tablet around more I would be more inclined to go with the small Pro but its either in my bag or at my house. Both are incredible devices and can't go wrong. Great video thanks for uploading
I use that iPad and I have issues with temporary screen burn in, where I could be on an app like Goodnotes, and the lines from the template will stay on the screen when I leave the app or playing games and certain icons stay and the only way to get it gone is by powering it off. Do you have any display issues?
@@michaelferguson364I upgraded from the 2020 pro, and what an upgrade it is. At least for the things I do on it. I’m glad I upgraded after waiting for 4 years.
I have an 11-inch iPad Pro M1, and I noticed that on the 11-inch iPad Pro M4, although the screen is the same size, it seems Apple has zoomed in on the operating system. Compared side by side, the same apps now have less visible space; the text and icons are larger on the M4. What a waste of space.
I wanted a pro iPad mini, but I don't think that will happen in the next 5 years. Since I already have a 2018 iPad Pro, Magic Keyboard, and Apple Pencil, I'll go with the 11-inch iPad Pro, Apple Pencil, and a MOFT Folio Float Case for cost efficiency. This setup will serve as my "iPad mini" for jotting down notes and consuming media. Even though it's an 11-inch iPad Pro, it's lighter now and works perfectly for my needs.
I constantly hear complaints about iPadOS… but I am missing what specifically people are looking for. What are people looking for Apple to add? I get that there’s MacOS software that doesn’t have an iPadOS counterpart but, unless it is an Apple app, that’s not iPadOS’s fault.
Right now the Pro model seems more like a plain premium model, nothing else. It doesn't add any actual capability, just better specs which are meaningless with all the software restrictions. Doubled memory but an app still can't use more than on the 8GB models, so what's the point? 10-core processor but apps can't continue running in the background. When I want to get work done I couldn't care less about OLED or whatever when the software isn't there. Just adding Mac OS' terminal app would instantly make it a full laptop replacement for me, but that would be too powerful and flexible I guess.
@@SaHaRaSquad 90% of your answer is what I'm talking about... people say Apple keeps making it more powerful but iPad OS hinders it but don't say exactly what they'd want. A terminal app is at least a good ask, though. Cheers! 🥂
@@SaHaRaSquad "Right now the Pro model seems more like a plain premium model, nothing else.

I'm searching for opinions on the M4 iPad Pro and glad that I stumbled upon this video - really insightful and appreciate the opinions. Thanks, Noah! A well deserved like 👍🏼
I love it, i haven’t had an ipad since ipad gen6 it works great for me and use it for work. Its more than just web surfing for me. I manage the entire business network infrastructure
I just upgraded to the M4 11” 1tb nano protection. I am still a tad overwhelmed with what it can do. I got the M4 for what I consider longevity for updates.
I've been using my 2020 iPad Air for four years and I'm finally looking for an upgrade and I think this is the iPad to get. I've seen a few videos before and was thinking of getting the iPad Air 13" but many people complain that is too big for a tablet. Plus I really want that 120hz OLED display.
I went with the 11" 256GB base model. The M4 chip will be utilized more in the future with the forthcoming Apple Intelligence stuff. I use Stage Manager when docked at home with an external monitor; otherwise the standard multitasking is fine for me.
Was also debating whether the 11 or 13 inch is a better fit. Had been using 11 inch iPad pro 2020 2nd gen since. My screen had a number of issues with pen input at a certain corner (left side) repair costs were also unreasonable. Decided to get the new model 11 inch instead. I must say everything certainly is faster and brighter. And thank God I didn't change to 13 inch as the size is really not great for long term use. Still thankful that they bump up the storage size to 256gb at least and still had the oled screen option for the 11 inch model.

@@ekbordinkhueakaew6740 thanks for asking. I've been working on a 12.9 iPad for the last 3 years. Making an effort to make it my main device, but iPadOS is not there. I use a lot of webapps and iPad on Safari still not the same as MacOS Safari. So I have to go back to a Macbook Air. But, traveling, moving around, iPadOS is good enough. So 11" is more portable, lighter. 13" + magic keyboard is heavier than a Macbook Air (and bulkier) That's why I'm curious about the "more space" in the 11" for some scenarios where you need more space on a specific app or webapp
I really don’t get apple for the battery part because I think everyone would appreciate longer battery life more than a difference in thinness(is that even a word?…). But tbh I don’t wanna complain anymore since I would rather enjoy than regret my most recent purchase oops
I recently bought the 13" M4 Nano for drawing and I'm struggling with the size of it. I use it in hand, rather than on a desk and it’s very cumbersome. I'm tempted to swap it for the 11". The nano screen is sublime btw.
If the 11” didn’t feel like typing on a kids toy, I could definitely get onboard, but I have man sized hands, and the 11” just isn’t going to cut it. Even the 13” can be a little small for my liking compared to a normal keyboard.
@@clintmiller88 I tried that before. I can’t handle going back to that MBA screen after using the mini-LED and OLED Apple products. Maybe if they upgrade those screens in the next batch, though I doubt that will happen due to costs.
I started out the exact opposite as you. I’ve had three 11 inch iPad pros (Magic Keyboards included) starting in 2011 and just purchased the 13 inch iPad Pro. My needs or demands for what I expect from my iPads have changed over the years though. I’m very happy with the 13 inch and it’s larger screen …
I'm on the m1 ipad pro. Using it for photo editing on Affinity photo and Photomator. Reading comics watch shows and actually writing a novel. I wanna upgrade to the m4 but I'm hesitating. Any recommendations?
Really enjoying the 11. I use it handheld mostly so that’s what helped make up my mind. The OS update is so odd IMO. Why they didn’t include IPhone Mirroring and an iPad mirroring mode, and the iOS mail improvements in this release is a bummer. Maybe we’ll get it in 19.
I like to add movie files on my iPads… I have a 1TB iPad from 2018 12.9 inches… and now use it with my Meta Quest 3 to project the screen to it.. .it works really well with the mouse of the magic keyboard …. with stage manager it works well… my iPad is still going strong… would like a 15 inch iPad in the future and I would buy IMMEDIATELY… and maybe they will give powerful iPads Mac OS… that would be awesome!
Man, I see you have a desktop and a laptop! If you add in your phone, where does the iPad fit in? I got rid of mine years ago because it wasn’t getting used.
Yeah it’s a spectacular piece of technology. Got my M4 11 inch with Pencil Pro and logi combo touch. Funny asf as I got it from eBay and it was imported from Mexico to keep the price low lol
Hi!! Great videos!!! I was looking for ipads reviews and found yours about ipad mini. I was really in doubt between ipad pro 11" and ipad mini. Do you have any recommendation to give me, please? The idea is something I could bring with me. I dont need a huge screen. My only concern about the mini is the how long updates will be available since its been 3 years since launching.
the size needs to fit into your life. Some might prefer the 11 inch for portability, but for instance, say... you are in real estate and you like showing videos, nice PDF´s to your clients, etc, the wow factor of the 13 inch makes sense. - If the iPad is a mixture of work and home, business and pleasure, I would consider what I ACTUALLY USE IT FOR. - If a lot of your life depends on your work environment and you actually use it as a work tool, let that be your guide to find the perfect screen size and not what comments say.- I am a realtor, and I love the screen size of the 13 inch and also, my clients, so, 13 inch works for me.
Great video. Have you found the keyboard is glitchy in the RUclips app? I find the space bar/arrow keys stop working intermittently when trying to pause/skip video
Should I upgrade from 2018 11 iPad Pro to M4 11 iPad Pro 256GB? I’m a light user but want to continue with 120hz. Also do you have the cellular edition and which specs do you have?
You could stick with the 2018 until next year to see if Apple Intelligence is as good as they made out. No way to know until it’s out whether it’s going to be good
@@sudiptabiswas9542 Ok, thanks! Also another question for Mac’s: Which are the best specs and size for MacBook Pro for my needs: Photo/video editing for YT channel on Final Cut Pro / adobe Lightroom and Davina resolve, programming JavaScript on vs code app, web browsing, note taking, and watching YT videos and movies, and for university. Planning to keep the MacBook Pro for at least 4-5 years. And use it 90% desktop and 10% taking it outside. I like portability too. Is it worth to trade in my 14 Pro to 16 Pro or 16 Pro Max when they come out, or wait longer to upgrade? I have a regular 14 Pro from February 2023 with 88% battery health after a year and a half and don’t like the battery life and buggy experience (factory reset didn’t help)

Is the iPad Pro a good substitution for a MacBook air? I just need something for basic things like email, applying for jobs, visiting sites my phone doesn’t do a good of etc.
After my GCSEs I’m looking to buy an iPad Pro, and I’m not sure between getting the 13 inch or 11 inch, if I were to get the 11 inch I was wondering if it is worth also getting a monitor so I could use an external keyboard and mouse with the monitor and iPad while at home at my desk, but then I could just use the iPad when I’m at school for example. What do you think? Is there any point also getting a monitor, and should I go 11 inch or 13 inch?
@@NoahHermanHow is that iPad running while on iPad OS 18? I tried using the beta on the A12z iPad Pro 12.9 inch that I am writing the comment on, but had to factory reset it because the iPad would try to reboot itself and not turn on.
yes it has a lovely screen but its way too pricy. i have the m2 eleven inch and i dont do enough with it to justify having it. i use my ipad mini far more
Is there a way to turn off the button in the bottom left of the keyboard? I’ve tried one at the Apple Store and I kept hitting it, thus switching the selection to emojis. Also, nice beard! It’s been a minute since I’ve check out the channel.
I tried your advice before. Took an iPad mini 6 and a 12.9 iPad Pro. I loved my iPad mini. Barely used the 12.9 unless for watching. It really is just for table use. Now I find that having two iPads are a pain because some apps don’t sync across devices as fast if it’s not an apple app. Now I want to just get an iPad Pro 11” and stick to ONE IPAD. Having too many devices too keep track of is also annoying. I have to say though, it’ll be hard to get rid of the iPad mini. It fits in my small purses.
I will check more of your videos, since you tell the truth, m1 is already overkill for most users (and uses). Still wanna buy the m4 because I don't have an Ipad.
I only buy the 16” mbp and I ordered the 13” m4. Bigger is always better. I use it as a 2nd monitor. In all fairness I own the mini which I think is the best size.
They way the rumours of Mac OS bated people into buying the iPad Pro M1 + making them hybrid laptops, it’s not worth buying unless you need a new one 😂👀
Nothing was more underwhelming than, “same clunky-limited OS, BUT IT’S THINNER!” I suppose it was their way of throwing us a bone, our iPads won’t weigh us down as much while we’re also having to carry around our MacBooks to do real work. If you’re not an artist and still want a tablet, get the cheapest iPad you can find, it’s fundamentally going to function the exact same.
I wanted the 13in ipad air but thats too much since my laptop is 15in. So im gonna trade in my ipad air 5th gen 11in 64 gb for the 11in ipad air with 128gb. Idk what id do with all the extra storage 😂

@TheNetflixNook how are you finding it?
Previously i considered 12.9 too heavy so changed for 11 . But this M4 13 inch version is much more comfortable to hold and carry.

That's why I'm curious about the "more space" in the 11" for some scenarios where you need more space on a specific app or webapp
I really don’t get apple for the battery part because I think everyone would appreciate longer battery life more than a difference in thinness(is that even a word?…). But tbh I don’t wanna complain anymore since I would rather enjoy than regret my most recent purchase oops
the 13 inc is better for me since i do art on it but i get what you mean.
Still rocking the 2018 iPad Pro . Got the same features
I recently bought the 13" M4 Nano for drawing and I'm struggling with the size of it. I use it in hand, rather than on a desk and it’s very cumbersome. I'm tempted to swap it for the 11". The nano screen is sublime btw.
How do you feel about it now?
@@itslunaa1922 I swapped it for the 11" and I haven't looked back! I went from buyers remorse to absolutely loving the 11" version 👍
In IpadOs you can finally format external sd/hd/on the Ipad.
I’m still using the iPad Air 2020 and thinking it might be time to upgrade to the 11 inch Pro and keep that for a solid 4-5 years.
If the 11” didn’t feel like typing on a kids toy, I could definitely get onboard, but I have man sized hands, and the 11” just isn’t going to cut it. Even the 13” can be a little small for my liking compared to a normal keyboard.
you should really just buy a MBA 13 inch and upgrade the ram...
@@clintmiller88 I tried that before. I can’t handle going back to that MBA screen after using the mini-LED and OLED Apple products. Maybe if they upgrade those screens in the next batch, though I doubt that will happen due to costs.
My Ipad Pro just downloaded to 17.6. I assume that Apple will let me know when I can install IOS 18?
I started out the exact opposite as you. I’ve had three 11 inch iPad pros (Magic Keyboards included) starting in 2011 and just purchased the 13 inch iPad Pro. My needs or demands for what I expect from my iPads have changed over the years though. I’m very happy with the 13 inch and it’s larger screen …
I'm on the m1 ipad pro. Using it for photo editing on Affinity photo and Photomator. Reading comics watch shows and actually writing a novel. I wanna upgrade to the m4 but I'm hesitating. Any recommendations?
Does your current iPad feel slow?
@@gregsvoice5628 nope not at all
Don’t
Really enjoying the 11. I use it handheld mostly so that’s what helped make up my mind.
The OS update is so odd IMO. Why they didn’t include IPhone Mirroring and an iPad mirroring mode, and the iOS mail improvements in this release is a bummer. Maybe we’ll get it in 19.
Try the "More space" option, gives you almost the real estate of 13
Great review! But if a ipad mini with a m procesor im geting that...
first time viewer, nice work man!
They also added the ability to format external drives in iPadOS 18
They made it lighter but kept the fat bezel... 😬
Love that new beard look! You're so handsome, man 😊
They added external drive formatting and a few more features in the new beta.
watching your vid after some time and that beard game is fly
I started with the 13 inch downsized to 11 and then ended up just getting both 🎉
Seems like a waste of money, but sure.
I like to add movie files on my iPads… I have a 1TB iPad from 2018 12.9 inches… and now use it with my Meta Quest 3 to project the screen to it.. .it works really well with the mouse of the magic keyboard …. with stage manager it works well… my iPad is still going strong… would like a 15 inch iPad in the future and I would buy IMMEDIATELY… and maybe they will give powerful iPads Mac OS… that would be awesome!
Is the Magic Keyboard worth the $300? I’m on the fence about it
Man, I see you have a desktop and a laptop! If you add in your phone, where does the iPad fit in? I got rid of mine years ago because it wasn’t getting used.
Right there with you, started with 11” then the 12”… now maybe back to the 11” the OLED will be most excellent.
Yeah it’s a spectacular piece of technology. Got my M4 11 inch with Pencil Pro and logi combo touch. Funny asf as I got it from eBay and it was imported from Mexico to keep the price low lol
Hi!! Great videos!!! I was looking for ipads reviews and found yours about ipad mini.
I was really in doubt between ipad pro 11" and ipad mini. Do you have any recommendation to give me, please? The idea is something I could bring with me. I dont need a huge screen. My only concern about the mini is the how long updates will be available since its been 3 years since launching.
the size needs to fit into your life. Some might prefer the 11 inch for portability, but for instance, say... you are in real estate and you like showing videos, nice PDF´s to your clients, etc, the wow factor of the 13 inch makes sense. - If the iPad is a mixture of work and home, business and pleasure, I would consider what I ACTUALLY USE IT FOR. - If a lot of your life depends on your work environment and you actually use it as a work tool, let that be your guide to find the perfect screen size and not what comments say.- I am a realtor, and I love the screen size of the 13 inch and also, my clients, so, 13 inch works for me.
Great video. Have you found the keyboard is glitchy in the RUclips app? I find the space bar/arrow keys stop working intermittently when trying to pause/skip video
Should I upgrade from 2018 11 iPad Pro to M4 11 iPad Pro 256GB? I’m a light user but want to continue with 120hz. Also do you have the cellular edition and which specs do you have?
If you have the budget then go for it ,otherwise the 2018 would still be good enough with a battery replacement
You could stick with the 2018 until next year to see if Apple Intelligence is as good as they made out.
No way to know until it’s out whether it’s going to be good
@@sudiptabiswas9542 Ok, thanks!
Also another question for Mac’s:
Which are the best specs and size for MacBook Pro for my needs:
Photo/video editing for YT channel on Final Cut Pro / adobe Lightroom and Davina resolve, programming JavaScript on vs code app, web browsing, note taking, and watching YT videos and movies, and for university.
Planning to keep the MacBook Pro for at least 4-5 years.
And use it 90% desktop and 10% taking it outside.
I like portability too.
Is it worth to trade in my 14 Pro to 16 Pro or 16 Pro Max when they come out, or wait longer to upgrade? I have a regular 14 Pro from February 2023 with 88% battery health after a year and a half and don’t like the battery life and buggy experience (factory reset didn’t help)
@@DanielHarrisCodes Ok, thanks!

If u want the ai features go for it
Thank you so much for the content you provide us❤
thank you for watching! ☺️
Is the iPad Pro a good substitution for a MacBook air? I just need something for basic things like email, applying for jobs, visiting sites my phone doesn’t do a good of etc.
the visiting sites part is what crazy sometimes sites will automatically take you to the app because its a iPad which is frustrating.
After my GCSEs I’m looking to buy an iPad Pro, and I’m not sure between getting the 13 inch or 11 inch, if I were to get the 11 inch I was wondering if it is worth also getting a monitor so I could use an external keyboard and mouse with the monitor and iPad while at home at my desk, but then I could just use the iPad when I’m at school for example. What do you think? Is there any point also getting a monitor, and should I go 11 inch or 13 inch?
After WWDC i decided to go the 12.9 inch M2 IPad Pro. Found an amazing deal at the 11th hour and haven’t stopped using it since. Love it!
When will macs have tandem oled ?
14:13 what is the windows at the bottom, doesn’t look like stage manager. Can you advise?
Did you move to NYC?
Liked and Subscribed, despite the way overused intro style and music! LOL I'm going the other way, mostly due to eyesight, but also for drawing.
my is dead iPad pro 11 not work in from 2022 can you help me for that iPad so sim my iPad
Your beard is looking hella awesome
thanks!! gotta shape it a little more though haha
@@NoahHerman I was just about to say, the beard is such a slay
@@NoahHermanHow is that iPad running while on iPad OS 18? I tried using the beta on the A12z iPad Pro 12.9 inch that I am writing the comment on, but had to factory reset it because the iPad would try to reboot itself and not turn on.
yes it has a lovely screen but its way too pricy. i have the m2 eleven inch and i dont do enough with it to justify having it. i use my ipad mini far more
Always great videos.🍉
Still debating I want smoothness but apple is so restricted, conflicted feelings I want android with apple hardware, on a decent sized screen
Is there a way to turn off the button in the bottom left of the keyboard? I’ve tried one at the Apple Store and I kept hitting it, thus switching the selection to emojis.
Also, nice beard! It’s been a minute since I’ve check out the channel.
I tried your advice before. Took an iPad mini 6 and a 12.9 iPad Pro. I loved my iPad mini. Barely used the 12.9 unless for watching. It really is just for table use. Now I find that having two iPads are a pain because some apps don’t sync across devices as fast if it’s not an apple app. Now I want to just get an iPad Pro 11” and stick to ONE IPAD. Having too many devices too keep track of is also annoying. I have to say though, it’ll be hard to get rid of the iPad mini. It fits in my small purses.
0:11 well yes ipad os 18 is an ipad update as it is supposed to be
I watchin this video on my 11 inch iPad Pro M4 oled 😃
Where can I find the wallpaper?????
Total weight? 👍🏻
I will check more of your videos, since you tell the truth, m1 is already overkill for most users (and uses). Still wanna buy the m4 because I don't have an Ipad.
I only buy the 16” mbp and I ordered the 13” m4. Bigger is always better. I use it as a 2nd monitor. In all fairness I own the mini which I think is the best size.
They way the rumours of Mac OS bated people into buying the iPad Pro M1 + making them hybrid laptops, it’s not worth buying unless you need a new one 😂👀
Which apps do you use?
Nothing was more underwhelming than, “same clunky-limited OS, BUT IT’S THINNER!”
I suppose it was their way of throwing us a bone, our iPads won’t weigh us down as much while we’re also having to carry around our MacBooks to do real work. If you’re not an artist and still want a tablet, get the cheapest iPad you can find, it’s fundamentally going to function the exact same.
Que es mejor con nanotexture la pantalla o pantalla normal con el paperlike?
What s thé wallpaper ?
I wanted the 13in ipad air but thats too much since my laptop is 15in. So im gonna trade in my ipad air 5th gen 11in 64 gb for the 11in ipad air with 128gb. Idk what id do with all the extra storage 😂
Apart from the screen which is the most important part in a tablet after all 😂
ipad with M4 is like having a Ferrari engine inside an old car, IPAD OS for me still very limited, just like a larger iPhone OS.
I had to return mine because of the muddy speakers, when compared with the 2018 iPad Pro.
bro has the best and the mos useful contetn ever
😀
Still love 13 inch
Hat tip for that intro shot. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
