2:16 not sure if people are aware, Logitech DOES sell a Folio Touch case with the power button exposed for Touch ID
yes they do...there's one for ipad air
Yes, I have the Combo Touch and it works perfectly!

@@TheTanadu That was so funny I just lol'd 🤣🤣🤣🤣👌👌👌👌👍
@@jarrack47 ...
@@TheTanadu yeah lol
I really appreciate your comprehensive list of things that aren't just apple products! I am a graphic designer thinking of getting an air for illustration and that magic keyboard is EXPENSIVE! Thanks for all the great suggestions!
logitech has a case specifically for the air now with the cutout for touchID
Good
Thinking bout getting that keyboard touchpad combo, its almost half the cost of the apple keyboard case
@@pspspsp1010 Won't have a touchpad but I found my apple smart keyboard folio on eBay for 70 bucks and it looks essentially brand new; something to consider.
@groundtofu there is a new case for 160 dollars from logitech with the trackpad
It’s great!
Love the way you talks about all these things and I can see the underlying reasons behind.
Hey! Your vids have helped me a lot and I've decided to go for an iPad pro! I'll most definitely use your cheeky setups! Thank you so much !
Hey, my son and I really enjoy watching your videos, they are light hearted, informative, easy to follow and family friendly. We watchedcsome of your videos multiple times. I wanted to share this with you and say that I appreciate the work you’re putting. Keep up the good work. 👍🏻
Everyday Dad: If I can figure it out then...... Us: You can figure it out.
Literally, every time I watch Everyday Dad, I’am like that!
I just got mine and so far it's amazing! I'm watching this video with this iPad and I love it.
Love the passion put into the curation of these accessories! I was planning on getting the magic keyboard but you saved me by introducing me to the small little metal stand
I like using a case that has a folding cover that folds up into a triangle on the back for a stand and use the apple keyboard to go with it.
Great video Gary. Very helpful and fun as always. Thank you .
The arm mount is legit. Attach it to the desk during day for work to hold the tablet. And at night attach to the bed and have a hands free streaming in bed experience. My favorite accessory purchase yet
Just love your style. I need more help on keeping phots and B roll organized. Also where do you store and archive all your footage?
My current set-up and first attempt at using a Tablet as a secondary device is the basic entry model iPad 8th gen, Logitech K380 Bluetooth Keyboard,and Logitech Pebble Mouse. It's neat,comfy,and compact for my desk. On the go, I also own the Apple Smart Keyboard Folio,but I do prefer my K380's circular keys and key-travel if I'm typing up a longer paper for my College classes. All together,haven't touched my Windows Laptop since moving over to this basic iPad. Insane batterylife compared to my old laptop and a beautiful screen too. I've been so happy with the basic 8th iPad so I can imagine the Air 4 being a really nice tablet for University Students. I initially picked the 8th gen basic iPad as "test drive" into iPadOS and using Cloud storage services, and have been very impressed. Definitely get the Air 4 if you're looking for the complete package.
I also plan on getting this Ipad! Love your vids.
Wich one?
Get 2018 I pad pro or wait until I pad pro 2021 comes out and buy the 2020 one they are much better than the I pad air 4
I got the new iPad Air and I love it. It is fast and as long as you are not going to use it as a mega computer it is great. I use it for everything. I don’t need a computer anymore. I guess if I was doing heavy duty stuff like video editing I may think otherwise. I definitely recommend the new iPad Air. It is almost 1/2 the price of the iPad Pro.
@@Lol-jj7wo yes but the problem is that in our country, the product is much expensive due to tax and also the iPad pro 2018 is phased out and not sold even online. Plus the ipad pros do not get any cheaper :( I'm fine by the ipad air cuz I don't need 120 hz refresh rate and the llidar and wide camera all that stuff haha
@@markoscares9043 I was going to buy the ipad air but 64gb isn't enough for me and 256gb model costs almost as the ipad pro so i got the 11inch 128gb.
I just got the blue iPad Air 4 with blue Logitech pebble and magic keyboard. Thanks for the ideas on the Logitech pebble and magic keyboard.
Gary: I'm not a fan of those matte screen protectors that make things feel like paper... Paperlike: Oh come on man!😂
Ikr but i do persinaly like paperlike beacause i use procreate
@Asad affrid lol, so true😅
@@user-ym5kv3si2z there’s some for cheaper prices
@@user-ym5kv3si2z mine was less than 10 quid..
I hate Paperlike too
Dude I just love your channel. The reviews you make are simple and quick, Im just a fan of yours!
Thank you for the video. I prefer the Brydge II keyboard / case, Logitich Bluetooth Mouse and a single flash drive. I will use my cloud(s) for storage also. I also carry a mobile hotspot and will randomly use the hotspot on my phone for the times I’m away from a WiFi connection.
I watched like 5 vids in a row. Jus subscribed and bought so many things for my iPad Air 4 before it even gets here haha
Brilliant video, I like all the cost saving ideas you’ve given - thanks very much
Great video. Awaiting delivery of my space grey air 4 as we speak!
I was waiting for this one! having trouble deciding which ipad to go for but I'm leaning towards air 4.
This was so helpful, thank you! Great video!
I love all of ur accessories, thanks for ur recommendation 🥂
Great video! Thanks to you I’ve discovered some accessories that could be very very useful!
I love your work bench/table man!
I just received my iPad 4th Gen. now I know all the accessories that can help me. Thanks so much!
I use the HyperDrive hub on my 12.9 inch pro, it’s really neatly attached to the side of the ipad and fits with the magic keyboard. I laso love the Paperlike screen protectors. the matte finish is a huge improvement imo andsurprisingly caught many people’s attention whent they firs saw it.
That clip on dongle is sweet!
I am an obsessive note-taker so I’m excited about the pencil!
Shopping the Air now and what I'll need to make it functional.
Y’all this is what i need right now, and this guy is a genius
EveryDay Dad drops...great videos all the time. That's for sure.
Thanks for the recommendation on the Nulaxy stand. Just ordered it!
I think you can use the usb c hub with cases as well, there is a little pad inside, just remove it and you can use it :) but it fits best on apple cases like the magic or smart keybord :)
Hey man seriously love all these videos. Question for you. Have you noticed the iPad Air being sturdier than the pro? Trying to decide which to get but I’m so afraid of the pro bending. Biggest deal breaker for me. But if they are the same then pro it is
got one of these for school and it’s amazing
I got the Stouchi dongle and it works perfectly with the smart keyboard folio attached - just remove the padding inside the dongle.
Definitely Magic Keyboard!!!!
I love using the Apple Pencil so that has to be my favourite along with my AirPod pros
Singapore uses Type G socket. The Apple charger has foldable prongs. Love it.
It’s really nice to see someone like you to be so enthusiastic and excited when talking about tech or gadgets 😄 keep it up!
dude, your vudea was by FARRRR the best, and most enjoyable!! I'm a first time apple ANYTHING owner (and long time apple anything loather) but finally caved in for the premium and environmental alternative to old school note-taking and Acexamia alternative. - - which, by the way, is also where the pencil is a must. but all that aside. your energy. realness and charisma--just 'mm!! Chefs kiss' 👌 🤓
Him saying 256 GB is little I’m buying the 64 GB lol
same
I am buying the 64 GB because I have a USB type c adapter with expandable memory, so yeah 265 GB is something i don't need.
@@anderssicker2651 what do you need 256 GB for? editing videos and photos?
You’ll appreciate the 256gb later because you gonna use this iPad for a long time and worrying about storage cap is not what you want to bother in your life
Same
Thumbs up for the Nulaxy stand. Bought it for my Nintendo Switch, its am]n amazing stand. Well worth the money. Also I upgraded from iPad 7th gen, to the iPad Air 4th gen. Well worth the money. Great video.
Rewatching on iPad Air 4 got it for Christmas 64GB
Thank you that was really helpful😍👍🏻
Logitech now makes a folio touch specifically for the air 4 that Doesn’t cover the lock button
There is a new Folio keyboard for the Air with a cut out for the Touch ID!
Ask them to bring it to Canada pleaseeee!!! Help us up north my American friends!
Exactly! I just bought it for my new iPad Air. Typing this out with it now - it’s Great!
U can buy things from us from enyware but it will take a while to ship it
@@brians1025 any drawbacks now that more days have passed? I’m using a Bluetooth keyboard and a Logitech ipad mouse
@@EarAche123 I ordered mine from Best Buy it is available tomorrow.
Great accessories and recommendations. Everyday Dad is funny and smart. Great job.
This was cool thank you!
thx for ur videos 💖💖💖 but little question do u like the iPad Pro or the iPad air more
Logitech released Folio Keyboard dedicated to Air 4 and Apple is officially selling it in their shop.
So many things I didn't know I needed 😂
Hey, the Logitech Folio Touch is also available only for the iPad Air 4 in the Apple Online Store.
The best thing about this video is that all the accessories are applicable to any modern iPad out there
I’m loving these vids keep it up 👍
I just bought iPad Air 4 2 days ago and it’s a amazing ipad
Just bought 64gb one for work studying purpose. Once you buy the Ipad, case, screen protector, keyboard, mouse and usb dongles are must. So, will have to use for its full purpose now.
Love the jacket, I go to Augusta University bro !!!
I personally use the Microsoft Arc mouse and I LOVE IT! Maybe try it out 😄
My favorite accessory for my iPad Pro 11” is the NutSac Bag 13. The bag is a little more expensive than other bags but it is built tough, and made in America, I have the charcoal version which looks good whether I take it to a business meeting or just out for the day. There are plenty of pockets for the little thing. You said you like zippers, well these have YKK zippers and the bag is water resistant. The Bag comes in a coated canvas and they just came out with an all leather version. I can honestly say it is the best bag I have ever owned and like you, I have a soft spot for bags so I have tried out many. Oh and this same bag will also hold my MacBook Pro 13”. Other gadgets I enjoy are the Apple Pencil and the Magic Keyboard. Love your channel as well and your reviews are more honest than most other bloggers. ZThey are more as you say “Everyday” than most other reviewers who get too much into specs and tech talk.
This was a great video. However, the part where you randomly scratched the bag was chef's kiss lol 💜💜
I have an iPad Pro 12.9” and I swap between two cases-one that is like a Smart Cover (but from amazon and way cheaper) and the magic keyboard. If I am drawing or writing with the pencil I use the one case. Otherwise, it’s the magic keyboard. I love how easy it is to swap between the two options.
I’ve not found a smart cover for the iPad Air 4 yet 🙁
I want a backpack review/comparison video!
Magic keyboard is my favorite
I was gonna get 64GB but you made me change my mind!
thanks for the accessories links
Can’t wait for you to do one of this with the new apple silicon MacBook
Really well presented and helpful video. Very nice change not being sold the most expensive apple options and getting a users view Am just looking to purchase an Air 4 and the stand, dongle, ssd drive and Bluetooth mouse will be on my list (I have a Bluetooth keyboard) Subscribed 👌
I bought my brother a Logitech keyboard and it has such a good typing experience that when I go into his room, I just type on it for fun!
Should try the Anker Power Core Fusion line of battery backups, as they also plug into the wall & charge both itself and the attached devices.
The stouchi adapter looks amazing. I see there is a removable insert so you can put it on top of cases but does this work with the magic keyboard? The magic keyboard seems to be thicker than the insert that you can remove.
Hey! I saw this video when it first came out, but i bought that dongle thing that fits directly on the iPad. The rubber piece can be taken off, so if you do have a slim enough case, It would fit on the iPad
I just got an iPad Air yesterday!!!!
You are spectacular when it comes to tablets. I have never seen better.
Hi just wanted to say thank you, I was looking for a stand and now have one! I did Sub. and 👍 and clicked the 🔔 Stay Safe and enjoy the Holidays!
I got a great deal on the magic keyboard from best buy so went ahead and got it and glad I did. Coming from a Surface Pro I'm used to paying for my keyboard so wasn't a big deal.
MAN AWESOME CONTENT!!!!
My iPad Air will be here next week. I got the Logitech pebble mouse and the Logitech k380 keyboard. I also got the Apple Pencil and a silicone case for the pencil so I can grip it better. Then I just got an ESR case and a stand for the iPad. Also, got tip covers for the pencil and a matte screen protector. I’m so excited for it to get here. It’ll be my first iPad. I’ve got an IPhone so I’m really excited to get into the apple ecosystem. I think airdrop and handoff will come in real handy for me.
I’m waiting on mine currently!
Great video.... Do you know can you transfer files from an SD card to a hdd drive without saving on the Ipad first? Cheers
I just picked up the iPad Air 4 and I was wondering if you've had a chance to check out the Logitech Folio Smart keyboard case? It looks like a nice alternative to the Magic Keyboard at about half the price. I want to use my iPad Air for editing my photos in Lightroom, so I am not even sure I would need the Logitech Folio case, but am looking to hear your thoughts on it! Thanks Gary!
2:05 on the Apple store, there is a Logitech folio touch case made for the iPad Air 4, meaning it has a space for Touch ID on that one (for round about the same price as the iPad Pro version I think)
I got the combo touch for around $122 dollars! It’s on sale now!!
Im deciding between 8th gen and air 4 everything I own is usb-c so the air would be great (wouldn't need to carry extra cables) but not sure if that price diff is worth it just for that. Thoughts??
Great video as always, but I'll add two accessories not in the video. the Apple trackpad and the Magic Mouse , but great with the iPad's.
I love the Zugu Case for my iPad
Subscribed. Really like your enthusiasm.
I've had Nulaxy since the beginning of quarantine. It's great! If only sidecar wasn't breaking on me after I updated to iPadOS 14
I’ve just bought the 2020 iPad Pro, I want a keyboard case which would you say I should get out of the apple magic keyboard or the Logitech one. ? Which is better in your eyes
Superb illustrations !
Looking at this with my iPad Air 3 and know that I will do the upgrade to Air 4 even though there are zero issues with it...
Same also on air 3, wanna switch
Can we just appreciate he put links for all these accessories!
He gets paid everytime we click on one....
@@KSIDDHESH ok and? you still get to the website and you’re just helping a guy out, it’s fine
I feel like the most useful thing is a solid state drive, stand, apple pencil, portable battery and charger, a great case, dongle, and maybe a keyboard. Oh and a bag or sleeve that provides protection and space to carry all those things. Thats the way I do things anyway.
Would you consider reviewing the Zagg Pro Keys Keyboard (w/Trackpad) for the iPad Air 4? 🥺
T.E.D, I’ve been binging your videos recently because I’m due for a new Mac product. I’ve gotten into video editing and my 32gb, 7th Gen iPad is just not gonna cut it. For months I’ve been trying to figure out my future Apple ecosystem and I’ve been going back and forth from getting a new MacBook (my 2011 just died) to the less expensive air, but I really like the iPad as a full replacement idea, and then as I narrow it down is it the pro…well you get the idea. Anyway, I’ve decided to take advantage of a $549 sale for the iPad Air 256gb. I’m still working on the accessories but I’m always coming in way under a $$$ MBP 14. Thanks again for your videos. When you can relate to your audience and really connect like you do-obviously makes you very successful.
If your an artist I suggest getting the paper like screen protector because it feels like your writing on paper or you can get a screen protector that is good to resisting oils
Great video and nice tools show. Can you please share how you manage to put the Smart Folio Keyboard with those colors/desing? Thanks
