Thanks for this! I'm coming from a 2018 ipp 11", and because of this review (revisit), I jumped the gun and bought the 2021 2tb 5G variant and am not regretting 1 bit!
Always wondered why people would thing a 2-3 year old apple product wouldn’t be good when 5-6 year old devices are still good s
My 2015 12.9 still is great. Takes all updates. Original battery meets my needs.
I’m a digital artist and bought M1 12.9 more than a year ago and it’s really of great help but when M2 came out with its new hoover feature I was heartbroken. The feature will definitely make digital artists job better, faster and easier. But well, I gotta stick to M1 and be happy with it. It still does the job. Great video as always, sir!
Thanks! And yes, I've learned that the new hover feature really is an asset to artists.
I’m in the same boat - I’m a professional multimedia artist and really wanted the M2 because of the hover feature, but I’m also on a budget. It was impossible to pass up a 2TB 12.9 M1 for $1500. I will simply have to be patient for when it’s truly time to upgrade.
@@ericvannielsenwas it 1500 or 1599?
As a multimedia artist, I really appreciate your humility in making this video; it was becoming infuriating seeing how many KZheadrs were calling the new Pro IPads “not Pro” because they lacked Final Cut Pro or some version of MacOS. I am lucky enough to own a 2TB 12.9 M1 and it destroys, but I actually regularly run into moments where the M2 version would be faster. I use 3D software as well as layer-based design and illustration software where I am feeling the limits of a non-cooled M1 processor. Furthermore the hover feature would, indeed, make some workflows that much more fluid. That said, we all eventually choose a moment to jump into a certain product’s evolution. I’m glad to have my very Pro IPad.
This is a good take and, as someone who has made videos questioning the iPad as a pro tool, it's since occurred to me that the real beauty of the iPad is using it as a tablet with a pencil and not trying to make it be a laptop. I kind of asked myself why would I even throw shade at it anyway? I love my iPad Pro and even though it has some shortcomings that changes nothing about how integrated into my daily life it is. 👍🏻
I have the M1 iPad Air 5, and at 64GB, I do music production and video editing without any issues with performance or storage.
thank you for this you’ve reassured me about my upgrade from my 2020 ipad pro to make the M1 ipad pro my main computer and daily driver 🙏🏽👍🏽
I upgraded to an M1 iPad Pro 12.9", maxed out with 2tb of storage for what I thought would solve me use-case, which was CaptureOne for iPad. For me, I shoot fashion sessions with 1.5tb of RAW files, and it seemed as if culling images on an iPad would be easier. However, while 2tb of storage is great, CaptureOne screwed their own PhaseOne owners by not using a communications protocol allowing PhaseOne digital back communications (a long story for those of you who are not PhaseOne owners). Either way, now I have a maxed out iPad that only serves to let me consume content while laying on the couch. So, I understand the anxiety of FinalCut Pro users who are pissed at Apple.
I’m still rocking my M1 12.9” iPad Pro (with your cool icon set)+ Magic Keyboard. I’m looking forward to seeing if we get a 14” or even 16” iPad Pro next year. If not, I’ll get an M2 Air. Great video, as always, Rambler!
Thanks man!
M1 iPad Pro with black magic keyboard. Used daily for over a year and it is exactly like it was on day one out of the box. My favorite Apple device.
I got rid of my MacBook Pro early 2015 a year ago, I got the m1 iPad Pro in replacement of it and it was a MASSIVE upgrade in every way.
I have the iPad Pro 11 inch m1 since it came out and it works amazing!!! I just got the battery replaced last month so it works like brand new. I don’t plan on getting a new one anytime soon. If I do get a new one I’ll give this to my mom
I know it's enough for me even without watching your video because all I use it for is watching Netflix, checking emails and browsing the internet 😆😆
Haha
Yup… even the M1 MacBook Air is plenty enough for me. Just ordered a refurbished M1 iPad Pro, 11” 2021. My 2017 iPad Pro is falling apart. 😂
Got my self M1 Pro love the 120 hz display soon i'll get apple pencil 2 so it would be perfect device for planning / sketching / education. And my MB Pro 14 for work mostly (mini led is actually nice)
I’m watching this over a year since you posted this. Despite the M3 iPad Pro coming up soon at the time I’m writing this (March 2024), I believe this is still great advice. In fact, my M1 iPad Pro 12.9 is much more versatile than when I first got it with the additional software updates including stage manager, being able to use Zoom/ FaceTime/google meet without it overtaking the whole device, and being able to properly hook it up to external monitors and cameras. Due to the hardware being extreme overkill in 2021, it’s my only “computer” that have and likely will continue to become more versatile and better for at least several more years.
I ended up buying a 256G M1 model and used the savings to get the Magic Keyboard + pencil. This is the only way to go imo.
Hey Patrick, awesome video...great information! What is that triangular looking hub you have your iPad connected to? Thanks!
a 2018 Ipad Pro still actually gets it done the same, with about 90% of what I tried to do on a borrowed M2 Ipad Pro still essentially the same on my personal 2018 Ipad Pro so I guess what does that tell you about apple’s “product development”
Could not agree more. Editing 4k all the time on my M1. Exporting at 4K on LumaFusion and it’s lighting fast. I just can’t see how a 15-20% bump in speed would change my life.
It’s more like a 50% increase in speed but yeah.
@@frostybe3r is it really? I was looking at the Apple official benchmarks and it didn’t seem anywhere close to that!
I am very skeptical about people asking youtubers if months old tech is still relevant because the year count went up by one
Thanks for making videos about this stuff, but what about the IPad Air with the M1
This was a super helpful video! I’ve been looking at the M2 for Resolve but after your video, I might start looking at the M1. Great job:)
Thanks!
But if you are buying iPad for video editing then go for M2 now because it support pro res encoder which makes a considerable time difference in video editing I am a M1 owner .
I’m glad I watched this, as I was looking at M1 iPads on eBay. The hover feature with the Pencil will actually be useful for me, so I’ll wait for them to come down in price second hand. Ta!
Beste Patrick, ik kwam vorige week op jouw KZhead kanaal terecht omdat ik een nieuwe iPad wilde kopen. Toen ik naar je luisterde hoor ik een Nederlands accent maar komt uit België geloof ik. Sindsdien ben ik je gaan volgen. Fijne reviews die je geeft doet me denken aan MKB. Ga zo door en weet door jou nu welke iPad ik ga kopen!
Hey! Goed gehoord ja. Ik woon in België maar ben zelf Nederlander :)
Last year, I luckily bought a brand new iPad Pro M1 2TB from Amazon with an incredible discount: 30%. Imagine, I had a very old iPad Air 2. Now it rocks!
Nice!
Love me some clean iPad content ❤❤❤❤ sounding amazing mate, was that the new mic?
Yep!
Great Vid… loved it! Thank you for your info 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Appreciate it!
I am still using my 2020 iPad Pro, I am waiting for the 14 or 16” models.
I’m wondering what the iPad is connected to? Looks like a long black triangle shaped charger the yellow cable is plugged into.
Bro, your presentation skills is amazing ❤️👌. Love your channel. Helps me choosing the right device 😊
Thanks man :)
Bought a used M1 12.9' one month ago. What attracted me was that it was only charged 50 times,98% battery health. I use it every single day . I study,watch and schedule on it. I was 13 when the first ipad pro was introduced and since then i had a dream to have one. Even though my savings got blown i love it
Glad you're enjoying it, man 💪
@@PatrickRambles thank you man! Awesome video. Subscribed
Appreciate it 🙏
I’ll probably keep my 12.9 M1 for at least 2 more years I’ve had it since release I’ll get a new battery replacement soon to keep it working like new
Okay, that makes sense. Even the powerful Mac desktops can't duplicate that hover function.
I just picked up a brand new 11” M1 512gb from Target for $250 less than an M2. As an upgrade from a 10.5” Pro, I think it will work great for me.
Exactly.
For better or worse Santa got me a M1 12.9 pro it’s an Apple store close out from Amazon. Not opened it yet it’s at my daughters house. So I’ll have it after this terrible cold front moves on later this coming week. Thanks for this update I still feel fine about this machine.
As well you should. It's a great tablet.
The video i was waiting for, thank you bro 👍
🙌
I got my m1 12.9" pro for 500USD The price was an absolute steal and the iPad itself is amazing, I use it for everything although the only complain is that the battery drains rather quick with max brightness so just be careful when using it in bright areas
I have had an iPad 2019 model so I’m asking for this one for Christmas because I kinda need m2 chip
I just picked up and 11 inch M1 refurbished 256 GB. I was really hoping that the 2022 11 inch would come with the XDR display so I could get the 1 TB version but it sounds like the 11 inch won’t get it until 2024. So this iPad will be great for the next few years and hold its value if I want to sell it to get a new one. I wonder what the 2026 iPad Pro will be like.
The iPad Air M1 also still kills in 2023. Thank you for the video.
It’s March 2024 for me, and I’ve just treated myself to my first new iPad since I bought an iPad mini 8 years ago! I got the 11” with Magic Keyboard and 2nd gen Pencil for £550 and I’m very pleased with the deal. It’s probably overkill for my use case, however it should future proof the purchase for another 5+ years. The accessories alone are worth £400 if I was to buy them new. It was either this deal or a new iPad mini 6.
I love my M1, and don’t plan or expect needing to upgrade for several years. The power is amazing, and the continuous stream of accessories and add ins are great. Stage manager on monitor extension is great, would love it when apple gets a clue and allows for multiple monitors like their competitors have been doing for years. Productivity game changer there.
How’s ur battery
@@panda16078 still going strong. Only need to charge it daily if under heavy app use, but even then it lasts all day. If not under heavy app use, minimal to moderate use, I charge once maybe twice a week.
Everybody tends to ignore blatantly that the a12z and everything before it (iPad debuted with a4, apple’s first ARM chip) was still Apple silicon. There more in common between the a12z and the m1 than there is between the m1 and an i7 or i9.
Just picked up a brand new 11-inch 512GB M1 iPad Pro from Costco for only £679 which is an incredible deal saving £570 from the M2 version on Apple’s website, and they’re going very quickly so if you’re in the UK and want one, act fast!
best decision I’ve ever made was getting a refurbished M1 ipad pro 12.9” a year later but now with both FCP&LOGIC PRO available on it aswell as adobe promising to release the whole photoshop suite for it this is definitely already a pro device especially as someone who edits my content on final cut Pro which is the software I was trained on inNYFA filmschool then working as an assistant editor for television production please no more videos about there’s nothing Pro about the ipad pro videos in my professional opinion this is most definitely the best most portable and fun to use professional device I’ve ever had and used!!!
This video predates those pro apps. I agree that things have changed for the better. Keep an eye out for this week's video ;)
I get that you made this video 8 months ago but now that the software situation has changed especially with pro apps like final cut and logic pro now available for the M1 ipad pro so you might want to update this video to how the m1 ipad pro is killing it in 2023!!🙏🏽👍🏽

Where do they find good deals on a 5th gen Pro? What is a good deal price? Which is the best hub/dock for it?
I really like my M1 iPad Pro, but as you note, Patrick, it’s WAY overkill for nothing to really use on it; at least from my experience. I love the screen and smoothness of it, but I hate that there is still no full screen mirroring support. I have Shift Screen that you recommend one time, but I only use it here and there. It’s a little clunky, in my opinion. We have had four iPads over the years and every one of them has had its quirks. I’m not sure what it is with Apple, but my iPad Pro will all of a sudden just start doing strange things sometimes. A hard reset almost always corrects it, but it’s still aggravating. I have been mirroring my iPad Pro to my LG OLED for months through the lightning port with an HDMI cable. As of yesterday, it will no no longer mirror that way, so I have to use the AppleTV, which works, but has its shortcomings. Frustrating. I hate to say it, but to me at least, Apply products have become the “lesser of the two evils” when it comes to Windows and Apple machines. Apple is way better than Windblows, but Apple has its issues, and a fair amount of them. Merry Christmas from Texas to you and your family, Patrick.
Merry Xmas to you too 🎅🎄🎁
@@PatrickRambles Strange as it may be, day before yesterday I downloaded the iPadOS 16.2 update. I just did a cursory look at the improvements, but I did not see that full screen support was being brought back…….for the second time. Again, I just did a cursory look. Once I downloaded it and restarted the iPad, everything seemed as usual as it was prior. Keep in mind, I have kept the HDMI cable connected to a dock and the LG OLED, which then runs to the iPad with the lighting power/HDMI cable. Yesterday evening, I noticed the iPad was not charging. So I reseated the power cord “at the socket”. I noticed a message that popped up on the iPad that said something to the nature of full screen mirroring through Stage Manager was now occurring. Low and behold, I now have full screen support through the HDMI lighting connector. Why it didn’t work as soon as the 16.2 update was complete, I don’t know. Yet again, it appears to be another Apple quirk, but at least it is all working and, YEAH!; Full screen mirroring support directly from the iPad. It’s a game changer.
Even the 2018 A12x iPad Pro models are enough for most users.
True.
Been using it for 2 years and I don’t feel the need to upgrade just yet; still recommend it as the “budget-friendly” iPad Pro.
That’s a cheeky fact about DV Resolve working on M1 iPad Pros…I’d not picked that up but that’s sneaky of Apple to imply it was an exclusive for M2 iPads!
I agree they made it seem that way at the launch
I’d been waiting on something like this, since I was a child
thank you for this review 🙏🏽
😁🙌
Pls let me know, I recently got an m1 iPad pro 11 inch 256 gb on boxing day sale in Canada on a discount of 150 cad. Altogether, it cost me 949 cad $. ( Note the iPad air m1 256 costs 999) I ignored the M2 iPad pro because it was already 100 dollars more expensive than the regular price of the m1. So the 256 GB M2 would cost me 1229 cad $. So altogether 1229-949 = saved me 280 dollars. Probably, I will buy apple pencil in the future. Just, wondering is it worth saving that by ignoring m2. I normally gonna do photo editing and 1080 p video editing with light gaming I know the M2 may be some seconds faster in very heavy task. I can still return my m1 iPad and get the m2 version, but it will put me quite close to MacBook m2 price range which can do more stuffs.
The lack of Apple’s pro apps on the iPad, to this day, continues to be quite the omission. I know that for music production, it still has GarageBand, but there hasn’t been a serious update to it in over SIX YEARS, when it introduced Live Loops and the Beat Sequencer, both now part of Logic Pro with way more features. Meanwhile, no Logic Pro to take advantage of the Apple silicon chips (on the iPad Pro). I know that Apple tries to only release products when they are ready, but there are so few apps that need such chips, that the high bar I still hope for is…meh.
I agree. In terms of decent music apps, have you tried beatmaker 3? It's not bad
Merry Christmas, Patrick
Merry Christmas!
I’m looking to upgrade to a new ipad in June this year. I’m mostly leaning towards the M2 but the M1 seems nice with the discounts but it was released in March 2021 which would make it 2 years old in june which means 2 years less software support. It’s really tough to choose which ipad to get.
In June we will have WWDC, possibly we will get some info on potential new iPads. I'd wait to see what happens.
The apple ipad air 5 has the M1 chip which was released about a year ago so the M1 will probably be supported for a year more, meaning the M2 ipad pro will only have 1 extra year of software updates
I wouldn't call myself a pro user by any means, but I use my iPad primarily for gaming. There are some people like me, who are coming from the 2020 iPad Pro, where it makes sense to jump to the M2. I think I agree that if I had the M1 version, it wouldn't make much sense.
What games do you play on it?
@@TheClosedBoxTTV PUBG Mobile, COD Mobile, and cloud gaming on Xbox Gamepass mostly. Waiting for Warzone Mobile to release.
But you didn’t mention the issues with Thunderbolt. Apple still advertising transfer speeds at 40Gbps when it’s really 5Gbps. This is really a vey big issue and false advertising
I have an ipad air from 2014 but the battery is acting for like a year just wacht youtube and netflix perfect what should i buy? 2nd stuff is pretty cheap so a pro would ve crazy?
I completely agree with your assessment of the M2 iPad Pro vs the M1 iPad Pro. As an M1 iPad Pro user I'm pleased with the performance of this device and if anything disappoints me, it's the lack of the pro apps from Apple to take advantage of the M1 chip.
Absolutely. We don't need more power, we need better apps.
In iPad we do not have a complete download manager same as IDM windows or adm android. And file manager is really sucks.
There's apps that take advantage of the power
As someone that Also digital artist and came from a Wacom Tablet. I will say I’m sad that the M2 came with the hover feature, which anger me to this day why the M1 couldn’t just have that? But now In 2024 and hearing big humors about the next line up iPads. Also I been loving my m1 iPad over time.
At time 5:43 you forgot about continuity camera works on desktop and MacBook
There's plenty of features I didn't mention.
Ipad 6th gen from 2018 still kills it for me!
I have a 2018 11” iPad Pro. I’m looking at a used 12.9 iPad Pro M1 on gazelle. The prices are to good on gazelle. ** wouldn’t lumafusion be considered a pro app? Or is it no Apple pro apps?
I wouldn't consider Luma a pro app. It's a nice basic video editor and so far the best on the iPad (DaVinci will probably cause trouble for Luma).
You are amazing, thanks for the content, and keep up the great work!
Thank you 🙏🏻
I just wish that with the M1 chip the iPad pro could have a better OS! Like switch to mac mode once you connected it to the keyboard.
That's the dream.
I have the m2 pro and love it. Coming from the 2018 model but I definitely understand why you made this video. It is frustrating that Apple is giving this tablet even more horsepower but you can't really use it. That's like buying a 750hp Lamborghini but the car can't go no faster than 65 mph. But I am still very happy with my purchase.
The use case for iPad is very different from a conventional desktop (such as a mac). But the more you use it to better undersrand how it works, you will soon realise that its not really that limited, and for the most part, its just different.
I use it to watch youtube since I get it a year ago, I guess it is enough since Apple didnt do much on software for most users other than digital artist or content creator, sic
💯 Patrick. Right on the money as usual.
🙌
Thanks for this very helpful insight, I am still and will always be your loyal fan, i always check new things coming from you! I'm both Digital and Web Dev. I used to have the 2020 model but traded it to the M1 because of the features and functionality etc. But i would not anymore upgrade because I don't see any major difference between the M1 and M2 other than the minor things like the "Hover" and maybe a few more.. Those are the things that i would not dare touch since its not that important to me for now or maybe even more for the coming years, the Hover feature I swear its cool but I don't seem to like it, that feature has been a while before on Android tablets specifically Samsung and i find that quite annoying when designing, It could be fun to have though maybe when used on the specific app, but for now I'm pretty much contented with what i have and it gets the job done.
Thank you so much. I appreciate that!
@@PatrickRambles - Very welcome :)
I know some folks are gonna hate it, I got a used M1 iPad for $250 used. I know I shouldn’t have said anything but I can’t help it. $250 out the door lmao I’m using it now. Omg that’s crazy.
I bought a brand new M1 11 inch 2TB 16GB ram iPad Pro for $800 2 weeks ago. For that price it felt like the better buy over a M2 11 inch with 256GB and 8GB ram.
Amazing deal 💪
love your channel brother!
Thanks!
Yay bonus vid!
🙌
I'm thinking of a refurbished iPad M1 12.9 versus a second gen iPad Pro 12.9 2017. The latter options sounds a bit mad, but the LCD guarantees no PWM and I'm after something for e/digital magazines and e/digital books. Any thoughts would be helpful
Are you in Los Angeles , I have iPad Pro 12.9 inch 1tb, space gray , WiFi & cell for sale , still new and sealed M1 btw not m2
@@MiguelRodriguez-my3dg England. Cheers though
9:50 What is the device attached to the iPad Pro?
Hi, any recommendations where I can get the M1 iPad Pro now? Planning to buy then 256gb. Hoping to find some best deals to save money. Thanks
Apple certified Refurbished can help😊
I’ll upgrade my IPad Pro M1 1TB 16GB of Ram ONLY WHEN Apple.. -Moves the front facing camera to work better in landscape mode -Adds a second USBC for another external monitor -Adds wireless reverse charging to charge 4 devices at once, (iPhone AirPods, Apple Watch, and the soon to be revealed Apple glass). And! -I want MagSafe charging. Other than that. My IPad Pro M1 16GB Ram is future proof, you gotta REALLY impress me, Apple, for me to upgrade it.
Hey ! i had a query that should i still get this model if i want an ipad for 5-6 years!
It might be worth waiting. New iPads are due to be launched this year.
Hi im looking to buy and ipad for Christmas during black friday should i get the ipad pro 2021 or the ipad air 5 i want the pro because of the bigger size please help
The pro has the better screen, if that's important to you.
Do you think m1 ipad pro will get the hover feature? I am kinda disappointed from apple for making it exclusive for m2.
Probably not, there aren't a lot of reasons outside of the M2 chip to go to an M2 iPad honestly if you already have a M1.
No. is apple that we are talking about. The did similar moves before (iphone 4 and iphone 4s with siri)
After I trying iPad , galaxy tab Samsung and surface pro, in my experience, surface is the best one and iPad is the last one because of their operation system And iPad OS is a frustrating operation. Samsung pen is the best pen. IT’s experience is the nearest experience to real writing with pen and paper. Size is better and weight is lighter. The only good things on iPad that I enjoyed were design and cpu.
In iPad we do not have a complete download manager same as IDM windows or adm android. And file manager is really sucks.
Interesting. I’ve watched their videos too. Hover feature is nice but should be on m1 too. Problem is, are we evaluating the hardware or the lack of software available now? Tech KZhead seem to mix both with good reason. But, it’s often unfair… Hardware wise, both smoke everything on the market. A separate conversation about iOS software, and the lack of development to utilize this hardware is not something that I see happening often. Apple seems to really only focus on hardware nowadays. I mean, if you look at the entire Pages, Numbers, Keynote, suite, and how very few updates happen on the very few apps that Apple actually develops, I think it’s up to third-party vendors to finally make software that works for these devices, and then gives people pro features. So maybe we should call out adobe and other vendors, rather than relying on final cut. At least Luma to explore in this space. People do have the ability to make professional level apps . I have listened to Tim Cook talk a lot about how he wanted to put the company in a position where the hardware wasn’t restricting the software and now we have a situation where the developers need to catch up. Good video. I mean … who would want to go back to Intel now… I think you have a lot of people that would want to spend the money on a full respect iPad the same way you advertise this Tesla, that you can basically only drive at a certain speed anyhow. Sometimes people one great technology, even if it can’t be 💯 utilized.
Apple Pencil Hover isn’t just a software feature. It requires more sensitive display hardware to work as advertised, which just happens to be the M2 models. As a longtime Wacom tablet user this is an extremely welcome feature to see, but also frustrating that it took this long to be implemented.
It's the magsafe charging case by Pitaka. I did a video on it :)
@@PatrickRambles Roger that. Thank you. Just watched that video and took a look at it on Amazon. I wish it didn’t cover the USB port. It’s important to be able to access USB devices while we have other things connected while we charge. 🥹 I ended up getting this. Peep this one for your mini if you want to still use your usb ports. LULULOOK Magnetic Stand for iPad Mini 6 (8.3 inch, 2021) , Adjustable... Curious to get it or see what you think. Dude, great videos. I look forward to
Yeah that's definitely something to consider. The way I use my mini, I don't need the plug. Things like beatmaker 3 where I want to plug in a midi controller etc, I still prefer the iPad Pro. Larger drum pads LOL
What's your opinion on Pro 11" vs 12.9" for first time iPad owners who are not digital artists?
That's so subjective. I'd say it's smaller form factor vs more bells and whistles, including a better display.
@@PatrickRambles but would you say the difference in display is evident to the untrained eye, outside of HDR content?
Yes. The display is truly much better. The question is whether it matters. It's not like the 11" looks like garbage 😅. It's just that comparatively the 12.9" is indeed better.
Do you think that older iPads will get the ipencil hover functionality?
I hop. It is a very old feature on Samsung and … in their cheapest tablets.
Nope.
No. welcome to apple now buy a the new one
Any person upgrading from 2020 iPad or older should get the M2 iPad. Why not upgrade to the best that’s available bc eventually this Pad will become obsolete. The only way this argument makes sense is if someone owns a 2021 M1 iPad…they shouldn’t upgrade just yet.
Because budget.
My iPad 12.9 pro m-1 1TB is outstanding and all I use mine for is watching KZhead, Disney plus , Netflix, and playing world of warships legends on it 😂, it plays my game better that my ps4 did lol 😂
Watching this video on my M1 IPad 😊
I used to have iPad Pro 18 256gb for a year I love the design and size but I had to let it go because I upgraded to canon eos r5 which the file sizes are way to big. Thankfully my IPad Pro M1 can handle this just fine and I’m not gonna upgrade my iPad till apple release iPad Pro 14inch that will be faster than m2 chip.
R5 club! 🔥 Have you tried the R6 MKii? I got it as a Bcam but I've been using it for all my broll. It's awesome!
@@PatrickRambles not yet and I want to use canon r6 ii. Due to the lock switch. I’d appreciate if canon remove it away cus I never use it on my r5. I’m gonna wait for r5 ii
Until i saw this video, i was debating about wether i should get the new ipad air 5 or the ipad 10. I then stumbled a ipad pro 11" M1 with 256gb selling for 1047 AUD (Australian dollars) and was $100 less then then ipad air 256 gb and was 47 dollars more than the ipad 10. But i'm still wondering if the ipad pro will be able to update in the next few years, i would be glad if someone answers this question because it would be a no brainer to get the ipad pro then the other new gen ipads.
The M1 iPad Pro should definitely get you through the next few years with updates and power.
@@PatrickRambles Alright the ipad pro it is! Thanks for this feedback!
Wonderful explanation!!!
Thank you.
Where can I buy an M1 12.9 inch iPad Pro. Most stores just sell M2
Online stores and refurbished programs would be the best bet.
M2 has only one or two features and apps. Very niche set for digital artists. Home users don't need all the collaboration stuff. Any iPad apps will work since it's designed for the average iPad with less ram. I bought the M1 Pro with 256 GB after seeing the iPad 10 announcement. I got it refurbished and used Affirm so I don't have to pay it all at once. iPad Air had only 60 hz and less ram. I was disappointed...
Amazon AR feature in app to see products lifesize in your room won't work even with iPad M1 Pro. Only works for iPhones...🙄
Definitely not true, I use plenty of apps that rule advantage of the m2.
Lol i still dont believe something this powerful exist i think getting m2 would be for people who draw for more speed but to a normal user like me who goes to college this is more than enough. Funny enough i dont even use this for notes anymore just movies and youtube 😭
I recently upgraded from iPad Air 4 to the iPad Pro 12.9 inch M1 chip worth the upgrade!
How’s the battery
Some people would buy the M2 Pro if they have not upgraded their old iPad for many years, also the same people might have waited to see how the M1 had performed, The M2 will have had a lot of issues ironed out so the updated chip will be more refined. The next upgrade for iPad - if I decide to to, will be for the M3, 3nm chip.
Tbh id just wait for the M4 chip
I like his reviews. Great channel.
Thank you 🙏
As of today in late 2023, would you still recommend the M1 pro or would you recommend the Air 5th?
Either one. The pro has a better display.
ya i like the ipad pro it is good ipad for all users in genarl
I”m watching you on my 2nd gen 12” IPad Pro. I love my IPAD. I want to be an artist with drawing but since that’s a want it hasn’t been a thing yet. I will eventually upgrade to a spec’d out M2 IPad Pro because? Apple’s software is slowing down my old IPad. I mostly consume content, on it and I do use the drawing function in planning apps drawing bubbles and things like thaT. Apple sure knows how to sucker us in as I will upgrade my 2015 macbook also but probably when m3 chips come out. I wish they would put together a proper tablet laptop like Microsoft did with their surface but MSFT windows still sucks and nobody puts cellular into a laptop except them. The perfect solution would be a bigger IPad spec’d out and have a proper Mac OS with touch screen. The cellular for the IPad is a game changer. I’ve taken my ipad on vacation and not my macbook. I’m not a fan of hot spotting my iphone to tether to my macbook. That’s’ dumb. Anyway I enjoy your opinion and the Apple upgrades and money grabs will keep going.
$2800 for a iPad with no Apple Pencil keyboard, oh HELL NO… I could get a M1 Pro MacBook Pro, iPhone 14 Pro, and AirPods Pro for the price and be more than happy!
