It makes complete sense - for a lot of you, this could be your first tablet or at least your first iPad - and you may not know what to look for in order to make the right choice.

☕ WAS THIS VIDEO HELPFUL? BUY ME A COFFEE!! www.buymeacoffee.com/techgeartalk What's up everyone?! I hope this iPad buying guide was helpful. Did I cover what you wanted to know? What else did you want to see or learn about? Have you ever made any of these mistakes? What other iPad buying tips do you have?

@fennsk 2 года назад

In your upcoming Lumafusion video, could you cover whether the editing from an external drive could also work straight from a phone or an SD card reader. If I can take footage straight from my Android without having to copy to the iPad hard drive that will have on impact on which iPad I buy. Also, reading Lumafusion's release it appears that this feature requires USB-C or Thunderbolt. This would rule out the basic iPad for anyone who wants this feature, right?

I’ve been using an iPad Mini 4 for a long time. Decided it was time to replace. But this time I actually went with the iPad 9. I liked the smaller size of the mini. But I didn’t need the upgrades to the mini 6. IPad 9 gave me all that I needed (watching videos, listening to music and less intense games). Plus the larger screen let me better read graphic novels better. Plus iPad 9 was $170 less. Know what you’re using it for, then go for it.

I got the entry-level 32 GB iPad 8 about six months ago, mostly as an occasional laptop replacement for email, web browsing, note taking, streaming video (RU-vid, Netflix, etc.), eBook reader, etc. But, no games, no downloaded music or video, and no downloaded content except for eBooks. I was worried 32 GB wouldn't be enough. It's more than enough. I've installed all the apps I want and am and still using less than half of the 32 GB. If I wanted, I could free up a few GB by uninstalling apps I never use.

This was a really well done, video. I bought the iPad Pro 2nd gen 12.9” and got the most storage I could because I intended to edit videos and photos but mainly use it to store all of my music notation files on. I now have almost 5,000 music files plus many audio files that I link to them. The one thing I was sorry I paid for was cellular option. The iPad Pro was basically replacing an iPad Air 2 that was cellular & I used them cell service when camping & sometimes as a large navigation screen when traveling. The Pro is too large for that and I’ve never activated cell service and most probably never will. Btw, I’m still using the Air2 as a second ‘music book’ and for the cell service when traveling. Your video was right on the money. Thanks for your clear concise view.

With digital art, your capabilities in the ever-popular Procreate app relies solely on RAM. It directly limits the number of layers you can use in Procreate and that includes grouping. This is important if you want to avoid destructive editing; where you have to flatten layers just to have more layers to add to the file. I prefer the 11.5" because it fits in my lap nicely while drawing and taking notes, and is big enough for typing an email on my $60 Logitech Slim Pro keyboard. The 12" feels kind of ridiculous to me.

Returned the 12.9 and I have now settled on 11 inch m1 cellular 512 gb, apple keyboard and pen. I think this will be good for 5 years for me. I could have gone for the 1TB but i think that is more then I need. The keyboard on the 11inch actually feels better then the 12.9 as there isn’t as much key “reach” for me and I am taking it everywhere. The 11inch feels more personal and just better for me.

Sagi, again a great video! Thanks for that. Just recently it happened that the AC+ for my iPad Pro 12.9 (2018) model ended. Surprisingly Apple now offers (at least in Germany) an option to extend that AC+ on a monthly basis. As far as the Apple support explained you can extend the AC+ for as long as Apple offers support for your device, which is usally at least 5 years for iPads. Keeping that in mind this in my opinion is a strong argument for keeping your older iPad - e.g. my 2018 iPad Pro - for a few more years.

I use my iPad exclusively for making music. Honestly, my iPad Air 2 still works fine for everything that I need. BUT it has 128 Gb of storage and that's totally full now. So I have to get a new one. And it has to be 256 Gb or more, so I'd need at least an new Air or Pro 11. Frankly, the price difference on these 2 models isn't that big and the extra processing power (and availability of a 512 Gb model) means that I'll probably get the Pro, even though the display isn't so important to me.

@alyaaliski8678 2 года назад

Even though I made several mistakes you mentioned (mainly storage) I'm honestly very satisfied with my iPad 8 32gb that I bought for about $350... vs if I buy the 128 gb which would cost $490 because it's out of my budget since I also need to buy the Logitech keyboard (used for $35!). The downside, however, is that I constantly worry about storage and perhaps won't be able to maximize my usage if I bought the 128gb one. I do want to thank you for your other videos though because they gave me more certainty when buying my first iPad. Will definitely go back to your channel if I upgrade, and will recommend your channel to people!

Hi. I could really use some advice. I'm interested in purchasing an iPad. However I'm not sure if I could get the 11 inch or 12.9 inch. I'm also not sure if I could get the 2020 model or the 2021 model. Plus I'm unsure about storage options 256 GB or 512 GB I am most definitely a casual user. I usually use it for emailing, light productivity work, watching content, video calls and light gaming. I would greatly appreciate any comments or suggestions you may have.

@DCuerpoJr 2 года назад

I’ve owned the 10.5” iPad Pro since it launched in 2017 and finally decided to upgrade to the 12.9” M1 iPad Pro because I wanted the larger display for teleprompting and for editing photos in Lightroom. Side-by-side, the new miniLED display on the 12.9” is clearly superior to the old display of the 10.5” and makes a difference when editing raw photos. However, the old display is still no slouch and holds up well compared to the 11” M1 iPad display. I plan to keep the 12.9” M1 iPad Pro for at least 4 years and still keep the 10.5” iPad Pro around as a backup or when I want to travel with a smaller, lighter device. I’ll likely replace it outright if the next generation 11” iPad Pro features a miniLED display like in the 12.9” model.

@sonicvboom 2 года назад

Why would you replace your 12.9' if and when a 11' mini-LED becomes available? Do you find 12.9 a nuisance/ too big for photo editing? Also, can one take advantage of the above 500+ nits during photo editing? Or is that "feature" only available when watching HDR movie contents?

@DCuerpoJr 2 года назад

@@sonicvboom I meant I would replace the 10.5" iPad Pro with a new 11" model if it had the same display technology in the current 12.9" that I recently purchased. In the end, I need 2 iPads for work.

If you have younger kids, the budget ipad (currently using iPad 8th gen 128gb) is better imo. They could hold it horizontally with both hands without accidentally touching the screen. It works for all their kiddie apps. Get a good childproof case and a tempered glass screen protector and you’re all set.

@514broly 2 года назад

Initially, I was having a hard time deciding on the storage on my IPad Pro 11 M1 as it costs more than $100 to move from the base 128gb to 256gb. In the end, I settled on 128gb, spent $10 on a 128gb OTG flash drive and upgraded my ICloud storage. I ended up spending much less and meeting my storage requirement.

I purchased the iPad Pro 12.9 M1 iPad, and I’m so glad I did! It’s super powerful and works faster than my old one.

May I ask what screen protector you use for the IPads Pro? I have seen a ton of reviews on different ones and would really like your perspective about it. I’ve seen some Apple Pencils in really bad shape because of some screen protectors.

@cassidydavis5515 2 года назад

I would definitely recommend the pro, it’s what I have. If its the newer ones you’re looking at the pros have the same processor as the MacBooks. The Apple Pencil is magnetic to the IPad and I use a regular screen protector with the Apple Pencil and my screen protector still looks brand new

I've had the 2021 12.9 iPad Pro with magic keyboard for a month or so. This configuration is the closest I've come to using an iPad as a laptop replacement. It's a little clunky in terms of saving files and multitasking, but the addition of the touch screen capability with the keyboard/trackpad make for a nice working experience compared to my MacBook Air. I have easily been able to do 95+% of the tasks on I used to do on my MacBook with relative ease. Given the ability to pull the tablet off the keyboard case and use it like a tablet is a real plus. Still room for improvement, but it's come a long way. The downside - this configuration costs as much as or more than a MacBook Air.
