Don’t make the same mistake a lot of potential buyers make. The new iPad Pro and MacBook Pro - both rock the M2 chip. And while there is a lot of overlap in terms of capabilities - there are some very specific reasons why one is better than the other. So let’s talk about the price of both devices, which is more portable, and the display quality. What about the typing experience on the M2 ipad Pro and the M2 MacBook Air - which is better? We’ll compare the camera and speakers, processing power and multitasking. And finally we’ll see how battery life, the ports and wireless connectivity stack up. So which is better? The M2 iPad Pro or the M2 MacBook Air?

11-inch (12.9 if you want something more similar to a 13-inch MBP) M2 4TB OLED with OSX would be a Music Dream Machine. Not sure if you can use E-GPU on iOS but you can on OSX so it would be killer. Not sure if my UAD Apollo | X Twin TB will work, I'm guessing not. I'm surprised someone hasn't hacked it yet. Just upgraded my Gen 1 iPad for a new 11-inch Pro. Looking forward to mobile Xbox and PS Gaming on it. Just need to snatch a Pro Controller for my PS5. Love the Xbox version but wish the Halo version was out when I bought my Gen 2 Xbox Pro Controller. I'm not upgrading my 2014 13 inch MBP, Apples Quality sucks now. No thanks. I held off because of the Strip Screen but even with it gone now, you get past that Apple are date and it's like walking through a Mine Field.

UK - I sold my 2018 12.9" iPad Pro and got the M2 MacBook Air 512Gb SSD version. No contest. The Mac is far better for my uses. Larger screen and I can now do basic things on Excel that I couldn't do with it on the iPad 'supposedly' Pro. The refresh rate makes no difference to me. I still use an iPhone 12 Pro Max so the 120 Hz vs 60Hz is BS for my uses. Do I miss the iPad Pro? Yes I do. Touchscreen and Apple Pencil is very useful. But the overall feel of it on my knee is not as good as the Mac. Overall I do everything on my lap so the Mac is far better and the fact I don't touch the screen means it stays cleaner for far longer. On the iPad, if they want to call something 'Pro' then it needs to be able to do basic Excel things that it just cannot do. I also had the 2018 version and the battery was hammered too. 512Gb Mac was £1,549 and if I wanted the M2 iPad Pro, Magic Keyboard, etc £1,978 so there was no way I was buying yet another keyboard for that. The Mac is overpriced but the iPad Pro, absolutely mental.

I’m currently using an older iPad Air and experimenting with it being my daily driver and see how long I last without touching my MacBook Pro 15inch 2018. The great thing about the M chip iPads is stage manager, which I rolled my eyes at at first, but it’s come a long way and with iPadOS 17 you basically can move multiple windows around at once on your display freely, currently you can only have 4 on the display at once but you can have multiple stages kinda like Mission Control on the Mac, but I reckon that will increase pretty soon. So far the iPad has been great, you can still get from A to B it’s just done a bit differently and once you adjust to it, it’s actually a really great piece of tech.

I'm lucky enough to have the M2 MBA (8GB/512GB) and the 12.9" iPad Pro M1 5G. I bought the MBA to replace my iPad Pro, but despite having both of them to hand, when I need a mobile device, its the iPad Pro I pick up every time. Despite the frustrations of iPadOS. For file management on the iPad, I find File Browser incredibly useful, and I have a TS3+ TB3 dock that I can use with both of them. I honestly thought I would use the MBA more than the iPP but that hasnt proved to be the case, somehow the iPP seems more robust in the Masgic Keyboard when chucked in my backpack.

Regarding your questions re price, in France, as in UK, they use the dollar price but switch the currency…..this has been standard since the dawn of time. So, a 1200 USD phone youd pay 1200€ which amounts to an increase of 35-50% depending on conversion. There will always be an increase of 30% for txes. Ditto Italy and UK, whereas UK may be adjusting post-Brexit but count at least 20% increase. Also the trade-ins are insultingly less than US. We are morally obliged to sell and go to all the trouble via reputable resale or reconditioning sites to get a fair resale price, which we then pay for the service……

In my case, the iPad is simply not suited to my workflow, as there are no reference managers like Mendeley for MS Office (really limited on iPad) and there are no data analysis suites or experiment design suites either (think of SPSS, ePrime, PsychoPy). I prefer the iPad for note taking and maybe light document editing, but anything more complex is simply adding more steps to complete it, which, in the end, is taking more time. This all comes to iPadOS closed nature, if there was a way to make it compatible with MacOS apps this would be solved, as the potential and power is there.

The easiest and cheapest way for us to get them is to just order them from apple or amazon and have it shipped to us here. The shipping cost is not exorbitant and there are no import taxes on commuting devices at the moment. I am currently using the iPad Pro M1, and I have no current need for the MBA, probably as I prefer using windows for my laptops.

O recently bought an IPad Air 5th gen 256gb for little more than a thousand dollars. 💁🏽 Cheers from Uruguay.

It has no fan to cool it down and when you video edit and have a few things open it just overheats . Definitely not worth a mention of video editing in the same sentence as this Mac air

No for the 11 inch is 79,000 and combined with Magic Keyboard it is 1,09,000 So with the keyboard there is only a 10 dollar difference plus Laptop replacement can be with 11 inch too

Hi! I'm from Mexico. I just got my iPad Pro 12.9 128GB with discount off price at 18,999 MXN aprox 1110 USD when normally this model costs here 25499MXN which is aprox 1499 USD I am about to open my new iPad and start enjoying it! I will use it to consume media content, do some work and be able to enjoy a bit more the flex office work taking some meetings at my house garden connected via USB type C to my headset to have a good quality sound during the calls.

My setup is a M1 iMac, iPad Air 5, but we need a second setup for the woodworking shed so I am debating on a MacBook Air and use it in clamshell mode or get a Mac mini

One other advantage is that with the MacBook two people can use it with their own Apple Ids. The iPads are single user only.

Want to pick up the base 14” MBP with m1 pro now that the m2 pro is available for preorder here in the EU but the price has not gone down. They’re just offering the m2 pro at a higher price. The 14” m1 pro is 2499€

Great comparison, but what's with the video title?! Don't do what? What "same mistakes" do customers do?! You explained the differences very well, but the title of the video is just unnecessary clickbait making the premise of the video undone :(

Here in Germany the iPad Pro 12.9 costs 1450€ and the MacBook Air costs 1500€ I think In my opinion it’s really expensive but I really want one for school. I hope I can get it somewhere else cheaper

If you plan to upgrade the base M2 MacBook Air, than go with base M1 14inch MacBook Pro as its cheaper….Especially now with those discounts on M1 Lineup

By design, my iPads pro 12.9 has gobbled up my other tech tools such as my tablet, cellphone (I use voip) and even my desktop (I remote into a full desktop pc for increasingly less tasks). I REALLY want HDMI in. Not HDMI out for my iPad Pro. I want to use my iPad Pro monitor as my only monitor and connect my Xbox to it. I know whatever solution I find will be “hacky”. Please do a video showing HDMI in for the iPad. Thanks!

Would really love to hear your rundown and opinions on the newly announced M2/ M2 Pro chip/ Max chip Macbook Pros, Mac Minis etc. Are they worth the price and worth getting now?

@harrison00xXx Жыл бұрын

The conclusion on M2 (Pro) devices.... Not really, unless you desperately want Wifi6E over regular Wifi6 Since my internet speed is "only" 500MBit im still happy with Wifi6 on the 16" M1 Pro base model, the bigger issue is SSD size I would rather buy an upgraded M1 Pro with 1TB SSD+ over a M2 Pro base model with 512GB SSD, but thats just my opinion. In fact the M2 chips are slightly redesigned/optimized m1 chips, the M2 upgrade was not as spectacular, in general you can say (in the best case...) 20% more performance and 10% more efficiency. With a few exclusions ofc.... for example a regular M1 vs regular M2 is a bigger difference in video rendering etc since the basic M1 miss the media engine (aka dedicated de/encoders...)
