One of the best M4 iPad Pro reviews I've seen on RU-vid so far. It's so much better when the person doing the review actually uses the product as they can share detailed insights from years of usage.

I agree with everything you said. My 11 inch M4 iPad Pro is so perfect and I’m so glad I switched to the smaller one after 5 years of 12.9 inch. I hate it when 99% of internet people have the exact same voice, “oh iPad needs to run macOS otherwise it’s a waste”. No one has anything interesting to say. So glad I found your video.

@delanodouglas6390 20 дней назад

I agree. The iPad is a multifaceted tablet that can do some of the things that a MacBook/laptop can do. When the "What's a computer" campaign launched, I think Apple was taking a shot at normal computers and netbooks that were still considered computers. I don't think Apple claimed an iPad could replace a MacBook, but did make the argument that iPads could replace computers in the Netbook sense. 😀

I couldn't agree more. I picked up the 13" M4 1TB model. I have been using it to work remotely. Pretty neat I can do my job as a Systems Administrator from only a tablet. I'm using an external monitor, then I VPN into my work network and RDP my VM. Teams is up throughout the day on my iPad display and I work fully off of the external 4k Monitor. The new magic keyboard is really nice, it is a must have.

Finally, a channel that talks about iPad uses for musicians! Thank you SO much. The only reason I opted for a 13” was only because I’m a pianist and I try so hard to want to stick with 11” pro upgrade this time but I just can’t see the notes. iPad Pro 11” silver with white keyboard is so beautiful 😭 but I know it will just end up sitting in my room untouched like my iPad Air 4. I just can’t use it to its best potential. It really comes down to your own personal use. I like 11” portability but I need 13” for work purposes which sucks 😅. At least it’s lighter than the previous models, let’s see if I will actually like it.

@beardfm 21 день назад

You’re welcome! And my wife uses the 13” too since her orchestra music would be way too small to read on a smaller screen. You’ll love the M4 13” I’m sure!

Yes, long time iPad user with ForeScore. Fabulous product. I bought my M2 iPad Pro just last year, so it will be a while before I upgrade, but the addition of the new keyboard is a winner for me. I have many keyboards for my iPad, including the Magic Keyboard, but it's just too cramped on the 12" version. I do use the Logitech ComboTouch. It's the best one for the older units. Still heavy. No wifi needed. And yes, I'm not wild about the iOS environment. Horrible to try and find documents. Good review. Thanks again.

@beardfm 22 дня назад

I’ve been using my new M4 iPad Pro 13 inch with one terabyte for the past three days strictly for photo editing in Lightroom and Photoshop and wow is this thing so much faster importing raw camera files from my Sony A7rv and then when I export them and render them to JPEG. It is even faster compared to my iPad Pro 12.99 with 1tb. the new Apple Pencil Pro is so much more responsive than the second generation Apple Pencil. It don’t lag like the second generation. I know there’s a bunch of people that wish it had macOS, but I am really happy with the new M4 chip.

One thing that seems to be overlooked in reviews is that the aspect ratio of the 13 inch model is different to that of the 11 inch model. The resolution of the 13 inch model equates to a 4:3 aspect ratio (or 1.33:1), whereas the resolution on the 11 inch model equates to about 1.45:1, i.e. a bit wider. This makes it a nicer "shape" for content consumption. In my opinion, anyway!

@easternv1lle 22 дня назад

Great review Stephen Question, how would you rate the battery life on the M4 iPad Pro as opposed to the M2 iPad Pro now that it uses a tandem OLED display and an M4 chip?

@beardfm 22 дня назад

Thank you! I'll need to test for a longer period, but the M4 means it can do all the same tasks with less power. And in my podcast editing experience the battery life has been great, but the last M2 iPad Pro I used was a 12.9-inch (larger battery). It seems on par at a glance I suppose?

You explained it perfectly - It is all according to everyone's use case - what fits their specific needs best. I upgraded to the M4 iPad Pro 13 from the M1 iPad Pro 12.9 and haven't looked back. I have another M1 iPad Pro 11" that is performing another function when I am in my studio. I also have the Mac Studio for the heavy lifting cases. But it is easy to ping the iPads if you don't need it and can poo pah them randomly. Too much negative talking heads on RU-vid that really don't need the real features that this iPad has now.

In my country the ipad pro m2 11" is 5k more than new ipad air so which one is better for long term? New ipad is 2 years younger and it will be get more updated that's the two reason im stuck with it: m2 pro price and update stuff... 🤷🏻‍♀️ and also is it big enough 11"? I want to buy the 13" but the price diff is literally 10k its so much tho. I would like to state that the iPad I bought can be updated for at least 6-7 years and that I want to use it for a very long time without lag or other problems.

@jayemery 9 дней назад

Absolutely loved this video, and the positivity about the iPad. I don’t want macOS on the iPad, but I DO want them to fix the bugs! So many bugs and quirks that I wish Apple would make a priority! Like electron apps not rendering content correctly (ie LinkedIn). Or scrolling with the Magic Trackpad just stops working, requiring a reboot. Or my external display going black and requiring an iPad restart to fix it. Or the pencil scribble feature grabbing my words half-way through me finishing writing the word, which only seems to happen after I’ve been writing a few sentences. These are not new features I’m asking for to make the iPad more powerful, they’re existing features that I want to work properly. Again, Apple needs to prioritize iPadOS to make iPadOS reliable and rock solid!

Awesome video. You can now select the audio output on iPad. It’s been one of my biggest issues with iPadOS when using a monitor with no speakers. Secondly I’ve noticed stage manager is now automatically launched to same settings as when I dock my iPad Pro as of 17.5 which is awesome as that was annoying too.

@beardfm 20 дней назад

Thank you! And where do you find that audio output setting? When I attach a USB mic it asks whether or not I’m connecting “headphones,” which strangely I have to choose yes because I also plug in headphones to the mic. But it’s not very clear for users who aren’t savvy to that distinction.

@richarddcrossley 20 дней назад

@@beardfm not sure about input but output you pull down the menu and click on the audio symbol in now playing and it will give you the option of the display or other connected devices including the iPad. It’s ridiculously hidden! Great for most monitors as iPad speakers are much better! Different if you have an old Thunderbolt Display or studio display but still nice to have the choice.

Absolutely agree, BTW I use an iPad mini to edit on Ferrite too 😊… and don’t want to see MacOs on the iPad but having said that iPadOS absolutely needs a better and more reliable Files app (file management on an iPad is a chore), Background process that would allow to have more powerful and better apps… even a proper clipboard manager…but the main thing would be avoiding“freezing” the iPad when it’s exporting, multiple audio and improvements to Stage Manager…and Apple not treating it as a companion product just to sell it along a Mac, case point being the iPad event, the tagline at the end said filmed on iPhone edited on Mac AND iPad… it’s like telling me that the iPad couldn’t have handled the finished product, but it can…specially if they give color correction to Final Cut Pro for iPad… 😅

Editing podcasts so heavily is intriguing. I really don't listen to many if any podcasts that require so much work.

@broimnotyourbro 21 день назад

I tend to agree - from a hardware perspective the new iPad Pro is the ideal tablet, I don’t see how they make it materially better (other than eventual spec bumps, etc.) This thing is perfect. That’s the tablet itself - you could reasonably say the same about the pencil (except I’d like to see an eraser on the back.) However, the keyboard is too thick and heavy. Don’t get me wrong, it’s wonderful and a dramatic improvement. However, it hasn’t reached its platonic ideal like the iPad Pro itself. It will be tough to get there - leverage and balance is not on their side. Also, I think people are wrong about the nano texture glass. I think it’s sublime. (My wife has the glossy, I have the nano texture.) I am 100% happy with the choice. What a great device. This is an incredible platform for them to evolve the OS (hint hint)

I cant decide between ipad air 13inch or ipad pro 11inch (In 256gb theres no big price difference). I really want bigger screen but pro 13inch its just too expensive.

Pro is obviously better but my question is if its still worth getting a bit smaller ipad pro11inch with all features even tho im gonna draw and take notes a lot on it? or should i get bigger 13inch ipad air and give up all those pro features?

The OLED display and ProMotion for gaming would make a big difference too. What do you think you'll use it for the most? If note taking and drawing are the priorities, and you'd like more canvas for that, I'd say iPad Air 13". If you plan to play a lot of games, or you're just very attuned to display quality, it may be worth going with the 11" Pro. You could also look for an M2 or M1 model of the 12.9" iPad Pro which is still an incredible device!

Great Video. I don’t even get a keyboard for any of my iPads I use them exclusively as tablets I have a Macbook and Studio for that. People need to stop trying to male the iPad into a Macbook and they will enjoy it more. I have a a Mini 6, M1 11 Pro and a 2018 12.9 Pro. I don’t see myself getting another large iPad as the 11 and Mini are the best sized ones for dedicated tablet use.

In single core: The M4 iPad Pro achieved a single-core score of 4,001 points, 28% faster than the M3 Max in the 16-inch MacBook Pro. The M4 also defeated the M2 Ultra from the Mac Studio by a significant 44% margin. This M4 is a HUGE jump, I felt the M2 and M3's were stop gaps. That M1 really was a game changer though.

Hi. On my white iPad Magic Keyboard from 2020 the white is stained from black iPad cover of my other iPad. Is this new keyboard also susceptible to staining?

@beardfm 18 дней назад

Wow I’ve never seen that before. It’s probably too early to say, but the aluminum palm rest won’t stain long term. The outer material is the same though, so if your previous model stained the new one may as well.

@VectorGaming4080 15 дней назад

Totally agree with the iPad should not be running MacOS. I think Apple should continue to flesh it out with touch-focused desktop features, but not while sacrificing tablet usability. I think iPadOS is headed in the right direction with Stage Manager and the suite of pro software slowly trickling into the App Store thanks to the Mac chips coming to iPad. My last iPad was a 2018 12.9” iPad Pro with the A12X processor and it got me through grad school for music. I decided to buy the 11” M2 iPad Air this year because the M2 enables me to use all the same software as the M4, albeit at sometimes a little less speed, and I find the P3 gamut IPS LCD to be excellent. I own multiple great OLED displays so I know what I’m missing out on, but also this LCD is one of the best if not the best edge-lit LCDs money can buy. $600 for MacBook Air performance in an 11” tablet is awesome. But, the fact they also were able to get an M4 in an even slightly slimmer form factor is insanity. iPads are Apple’s coolest product.

You are far too sensible in how you approach the iPad. Everyone that says "the iPad Pro is great but held back by iPadOS" tire me as they just don't seem to understand the iPad is not a Mac. Yes they're similar and I am sure at WWDC they will become a bit more similar but fundamentally the iPad is better suited to some tasks just like the Mac is better suited to some other tasks. I understand people want a "does it all" device but all-in-one solutions always have janky compromises, just look at how other tablets have tried and failed to be both a desktop OS and a tablet OS. Your review of the iPad Pro (not just the M4 but the iPad as a whole platform) is easily the best I have seen in years because you seem to actually *get* what the iPad is designed for and don't try to make it something it really isn't designed or trying to be. Great job Stephen :)
