Bum bags or fanny packs? Your call. 😜
Kinda fell in love with the Mini when I saw so many Stanford students using early versions in 2015. Just got mine, nine years later. Cute cute cute.
Thanks for not spending 20 minutes talking about paper like…
You're welcome! *disclaimer may talk about them for 60secs or so in future
@@ThatMarkGilroyhahaha 😂
I’m nearly in my 80s and watching. As a former techie, I know this will be my last computing device that will hold power for some of my computing tasks that I’ll retain and maintain.
Thanks for watching Butch. My Dad’s in his 80s and as a former techie he thinks the Mini is an absolute marvel. He’s right, as usual!
as an artist and tech enjoyer, i hope i can reach 80s to be former techie like you. Would be nice to see Butch ipad mini setup 📱 Want to get the mini too, hope next one have brighter screen tho, i love to go outside 😎 -sent from m2 pro 11”
You’ve shown me a few accessories I hadn’t seen before! This is the first video I’ve watched of yours but I had to subscribe given your wonderful sense of humor. Cheers from the US!
People who share my silly sense of humor are very welcome here! 😁
Great video! Thanks!
I'd like to make an alternate recommendation in regards to the case/keyboard. Instead of getting an all-in one option, I found the ESR Rebound Series case for under $20 on Amazon. I also found a great Bluetooth keyboard from Moko for under $30 which is foldable so it takes up less space than the Mini when not in use. Both fit into my cross body sling (no bum or fanny involved) and are much less bulky than a keyboard case, plus the fact they are separate actually makes it easier for me to pack them. What's more, the keyboard turns off when folded, maximizing battery life between charges.
Just been checking those out Kevin. The keyboard in particular looks awesome- thanks for sharing. I smell a keyboard case showdown for a future video!
Magsafe adapter and a magsafe popsocket 🥰 for a more stable hold while also being able to remove it if you are going to put the ipad on a stand.
Good call. 👍🏻
There’s a great bit in Hannah Gadsby’s “Douglas” about the different meanings of “fanny”, depending on which country’s version of English that you speak. Definitely worth a watch. Thanks for the content.
I love Hannah Gadsby! Will go check that out. 👍🏻
@@ThatMarkGilroy Just got tickets to see them at the London Palladium. Looking forward to that.
solid work. I personally use the Logitech K480 for my iPad mini workflow and have no complaints
Thanks for the heads up Tom. Not seen that one before but it looks really smart. And the gap holds the Mini?
@@ThatMarkGilroy yes sir! Sometimes the angle can catch glare from particular overhead lights, but otherwise enjoyable.
Your videos are getting SO much better!!!! (sorry, that makes me sound arrongant) This one is awesome - mostly because: - I'm cheap and everything is too spendy these days - I love my Ipad Mini - I agree with everything you say here... ! Great job - subscribing!
Not at all mate, thanks for saying that. I try and make each video a tiny bit better than the last. All about incremental improvements!
Honestly I expecting all apple product lol. Your video really nice
Ha, thanks Kana!
Nice video man! New subscriber
Thanks mate. And welcome!
Great vid. I liked the look of your key holder; which brand is it?
It’s from Orbitkey. They put out a limited edition all black release in saffiano leather a while ago. Still going strong after many years!
New sub here, first time watching today, watched 4 videos…. Question, Which skin is on your iPad mini?
Thanks buddy. The skin is from dbrand- it’s called ‘Swarm’. I like it because it adds some texture/grip to an otherwise slippery surface.
@@ThatMarkGilroy thank you .. I like it.
to be honest if you don't need the pencil inclination feature you can just get any 5 dollar pen, same with the paper-like screen prootector.
I’ve tried some of the really cheap ones. They’re pretty nasty. This one feels just like the Apple Pencil other than the inclination.
Nice!
Does the paperfeel screen protector move around when writing? Since it’s not sticky.
Hi Bryana. Depends on how you’re taking notes. In the b-roll here I was holding it up to show the camera with one hand and writing on it with the other, and there it did slip around a bit. But in a ‘real’ writing scenario when your palm is on the screen, it doesn’t move.
the price difference is more taxes and tariffs than exchange rate
I hate all iPad mini keyboards. Just way too small and I have typos too often.
My other go to when I need to type on this (and it ain’t budget) is the Nuphy Air 75 with the Nufolio case/stand. Works a treat.
@@ThatMarkGilroy for home I have the logi Mx keys.
Another commenter mentioned the K480 which comes with a little notch to sit your iPad in.
Screen protector. I’m done listening.
