Apple’s reveal of the new iPad Pro and iPad Air gave us a confusing mess of expensive accessories and compatibility problems, along with a tone-deaf Crush ad. Bridget Carey suggests going back to the simple Steve Jobs product matrix.

As someone with an iPad Air with M1, I'm not sure if anyone is screaming for more CPU power in an iPad. What we do want is the underlying OS that will assist users and devs to make more use of that power. If Apple to continue to kneecap the OS, then really there isn't any point getting anything other than the regular iPad model with A14 series CPU.

I’ve worked in the industry for 13 years. Apple is the only brand I can think of where you can use old accessories on new models. You’ve been able to use the same accessories on the Pros for the last 3 generations, since 2018. I think its a bit unrealistic to expect the builds to be the same forever, especially when noone is complaining that their competitors do it EVERY generation.

@smetlitzky Месяц назад

100% Correct. Apple isn’t listening to its customers or major tech reviewers like Marcus Brownlee.. it’s simple we are all saying the same thing… we don’t need more hardware, we need you to fix the software ..

@TimpossibleOne Месяц назад

The iPad Air line is basically the iPad Pro SE. It's the old iPad Pro regurgitated under a different name. The Air used to be about having a lighter iPad but now it's the holder of used Pro specs. Something to charge more than the base iPad but less than the new pros. They don't need it. All they have to do is number-name the Pros and sell the previous generation next to the new ones. It works for the iPhone.

@JDelta87 Месяц назад

My M2 iPad Pro is already thin to the point where I’m afraid it will bend. And not you want to make it even thinner which makes no sense at all. They keep bringing out all these powerful iPads for no reason cause in the end it’s going to do the same thing as the previous one which is already a powerhouse but can’t fully perform at peak performance because there’s no apps that take advantage of it. What Apple needs to focus on is on iPadOS and stop bringing us more powerful hardware just for the sake of it and not give us the performance we need takes advantage of it.

As an artist, using Procreate or Nomad I EASILY run out of RAM and crash my 8GB 2021 iPad Pro, which blocks me from adding layers, adding more polygons, etc, PRO creative work is massively hindered. It blows my mind that in 2024 the new "PRO" iPads are still shipping with a 8GB base, same memory as the Air! Did they just loose all sense of what "PRO" should entail? And the cost of upgrading to 1TB of storage (storage which I DONT need, I just want RAM), just to bump that up to 16GB is insane!! It's north of $2000 (CND) if I want to get more RAM! Apple have really lost the plot here.

@turbotambourine Месяц назад

Agree! I feel like I need to watch each event to understand the product lineups. Let’s go back to basics! So many sku’s of different machines is just wild. I get that people want to have choice but buyers and users should have it a bit easier once they understand their use. It’s almost like Apple has made a whole separate chart for ipads. As an owner of the first ipad pro with face ID, that thing has been so solid and when buying I had no doubt of what to buy, the hardest decision was the capacity I could afford and if I should buy the keyboard which I still haven’t. I bought a standard Mac keyboard instead. Full function, great feel, can be near or far from the ipad.

I own a 3rd Gen (Pre M1) iPad Air. It still does everything I need. I use it mainly for media consumption when commuting. It fits in my backpack and works with the 1st gen pencil (Which I have but rarely use). I did get the updated iPad Air, only because of the upcoming AI focus that will require more processing power for even basic tasks. I don't think having the Mac OS on it would make a difference to me. if I can run media consumption apps and social media apps. I am fine. I think Apple missed an opportunity to make the iPad Pro into a media creation device for mobile situations like onset activities that need high mobility and access to tier-one MacOS applications for people in situations where time costs real money and the MacBook's and iMacs can be featured for post-production.

@@elinx7641 Same, I am using an ipad pro3 12.9 inches daily. Held up well. Love the magic keyboard and also a daily. Working fine but the polyurethane material is peeling off like tissue paper. Held off changing for the longest i could but, this ipad 13 disappointed (mainly agreed with most of the points stated in this video). Was pondering about s10 but not sure if it would be launched 4Q 2024 or even late 2025, so I just ordered the s9. Also my ipad 12.9 just stopped charging using my GAN charger "somehow"....

I think what apple often forgets is that for most consumers: Price actually matters... When you create something like this with ludicrous prices many will not be willing to upgrade or swap. It has to offer great experience at a decent price. It is the reason many use android and windows. Products that are 95% of the way there in comparison to apple but 50% cheaper or more... Also has apple ever done a survey about what consumers want? I think most would prefer a 15-20 hr+ battery life instead of a thinner, more breakable, ipad. Additionally cramming an M4 into an ipad is so ludicrous - the thing will overheat if it is using it to the max for any amount of time. Maybe save 200-500$ on the chip for all consumers? Ipad for 95% of people is not a workstation... Trying to cram the niche use case of "artist" on everyone is mad.

Bright insight about the current situation at Apple. I also have been following closely Apple since the 80s. And much of the spiritual, humanistic and consumer culture is gone.

@TimWong49152 Месяц назад

You add a second USB C Thunderbolt 4 port at the other end and you replace iPadOS with MacOS. That would be game changing. You keep the regular iPads with iPadOS.

@PSYCHOV3N0M Месяц назад

Never happening. 🤣🤣🤣 Apple is a publicly traded company that answers to their shareholders. They're not stupid to allow iPads running MacOS to cannibalize their Macbook sales. They make more money selling two different devices that have 2 completely different target audiences instead of selling 1 device that can do it all.

@IdoGindes Месяц назад

How about: * iPad - for people who needs a cheap and basic iPad for work, school or entertainment, one size, runs iPasOS * iPad Air - for people who want an iPad with more features and the Apple Pencil Pro, 3 sizes (mini, regular and Max), runs iPadOS * iPad Pro - for people who want the ultimate versatile Apple tablet-computer hybrid, 2 sizes, runs MacOS or preferably iPadProOS (which would be 70% MacOS and 30% iPadOS) I think this method would differentiate the iPad Air from the iPad Pro in a way that would make the iPad Pro worth it’s extremely high price compared to the iPad Air BTW, I was so disappointed when the event was over without the iPad mini getting some love 😢

@Bimluva72 Месяц назад

To be honest I’m reserving some of my comments until after June 10th when I can hopefully have a better picture of what Apple has in mind for the iPads but I have to agree with going back to the simple model Steve used to get Apple back on track. Sometimes less is more; less choice means more clarity and more satisfaction.

@ChromeJob Месяц назад

You’re absolutely right. The baffling array of keyboards and pencils, folio covers and smart covers, ports that don’t work with your other accessories (Earpods, adapters) leaves me both frustrated and unwilling to buy ANYTHING. My iPad Mini is just fine, thanks. Maybe I’ll get one with more storage, now that the prices are dropping even more.

@StayPeace69 Месяц назад

AGREE! AND WHERE’S THE NEW IPAD MINI AT!? WAS HOPING FOR A PRO MODEL, BUT DAYUM, EVEN A NORMAL MINI DIDN’T GET ANY UPDATES🙂‍↔️

@oliverstemp9132 Месяц назад

Nobody would actually buy that, like the mini iPhones what were frequently asked for but hardly actually bought. They won’t make that mistake again.

@Sashazur Месяц назад

Nobody’s going to buy the Mini when it costs more than a larger basic iPad, and iPhones keep getting bigger anyway.

@WanKhairilRezaKamaludin Месяц назад

Need to simplify. The line up could be: iPad Mini, iPad (standard and max) and iPad Pro (standard and max). The standard and max are same sizes across the pro and non pro, to simplify accessories. Eg standard-sized keyboard works for both pro and non-pro standard-sized iPads. Pencil and Pencil pro. Both can be magnetically charged or by using usb-c

@benjackson11111 Месяц назад

i had a similar idea - but the base level could be iPad mini in both a small and larger size, and that would incorporate the exisitng base level ipad $349. So that's still 3 tiers instead of Steve Job's 2, but i think it's justified

Good job on this review. I have the M1 12”. Not going to upgrade and even if this one breaks I am going to purchase the older one where my accessories still work. Huge lost opportunity to make an IPad with a huge battery for those of us that use it on the go for work.

@jacob.williams Месяц назад

Exactly. I’m on a 2020 Pro, and having to repurchase all the accessories is the primary factor in my not upgrading. I’ll look at refurbished M series models if anything.
