I finally upgraded to one this past weekend. I love it. Now to learn photo & video editing so all this power doesn’t go unused…

I have the 11’ Ipad Pro and love it. Not a power user but run my life thru it. I use the Logitech Combi keyboard which is convenient, less expensive and works quite well. Got the Pro to stay future proofed. I’m sure the IPad Air would be quite good for my use too but the M1 will keep my options open should I need to do more powerful applications.

I think this is your best KZfaq video ever. Your pacing is amazing, you’re editing is unparalleled, your confidence is inspiring… you are just doing GREAT. Looking forward to following you over the next 10 years… or more. Now let’s talk about the elephant in the room. It’s downloading video from all your devices onto the iPad. Give us a tutorial on the best way to do that. Remember our leader leads by leading…. and we so want to follow you. Keep up the great work.

I got mine solely for my woodshop. I am very happy with being able to draw up ideas and designs on it with the pencil and magic keyboard. Yes, I spent a ton of money on it. Worth it in the end.

I got my iPad Pro M1 12.9” in January and I am absolutely loving it! I use it almost every day and it’s my go to outside my apartment. (Even though I own a MacBook Air.)

The M1 iPad Pro is the first ipad I’ve ever owned, i was mainly an android guy but switched over to apple due to work conveniences. But lemme tell you, this is probably the best tablet I’ve ever used. The fluidity, productivity, power, in this tablet is sweet. And on top of that, all the cool gadgets you can pair with it is awesome!

As a tattoo artist and a youtuber I use my iPad Pro almost everyday for things like tattoo design with procreate, script typing, and consumption of video occasionally. I could not imagine my life without it at this point. Great video dude. Hope you are well.

Just got my iPad pro 11" and I love it so much omg

Thanks for sharing. I will be looking to upgrade my 12.9 (2018). Blessings on your day!

I have always felt that tablets were the wrong size for me until I got the 12.9". I draw on it and it doesn't feel cramped like everything else I have used. It's not perfect, but it's a pretty good tablet.

One year later and it's still...just an iPad. A glorious, beautiful, well designed piece of technology, but still, just an iPad. But I don't necessarily think that it has to be a bad thing. I owned the 2020, 12.9" iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard, and fell for Apple's "what's a computer" tagline, as did many others out there. I quickly came to realize, that as much as Apple would like to market this as a computer, it really can't replace a traditional laptop for those that need full desktop computing needs. I LOVE my iPad, but I also needed a true computer for my needs so I ended up selling the 2020 iPad Pro, and bought a M1 Macbook Air and a M1 11" iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard and now, I'm satisfied. Between the new Universal Control feature heading our way soon outside of beta, and the fact that I can easily throw my 11" iPad Pro into my purse for days when I need mobile computing, I feel like I've got the best ecosystem for my needs. The only thing I am looking for now, and I hope to see coming this year, is Apple to come out with their own monitors again. Preferably something that looks like the new colourful iMac's. Then I'd set up a desktop area, but right now, don't need - I'm happy to use my Macbook Air for that desktop usage and the iPad Pro for mobility. But - I think it's important to note that I think Apple has moved away from marketing it as a one and done device, and I think they've smartly marketed it as a supplementary device. The hardware is leaps and bounds better than every other tablet on the market, but the software...the software holds it back. But I think we can all agree at this point, that this is an intentional holdback. Apple does not want it to replace your need for a full computer. They want you to have as many products in the Apple ecosystem as possible.

I'm using my 12.9" daily to write notes using Good Notes (I only wish it had full screen mode). And Reading Magazines. I lost part of my eyesight and loving the Ipad Pro, crazy fast and it's part of my work flow with the Iphone 12 and Imac 27" , still using Desktop Mode to access some PC programs but works well for me.

I love my iPad 12.9 m1 chip it’s a beast and awesome too use, I’m on it everyday after work.

It’s hilarious how i just got into ur channel today and found the video i wanted to see uploaded 10 mins ago

Agreed -Amazing iPad……finally picked one up being a few generations behind and wow…..amazing !!!

Love your videos keep up the good work!

After graduating, I switched from an M1 MacBook Pro to the 11inch iPad Pro with a pencil. Yes I could’ve kept my MacBook for years and years but the portability of the iPad beats even the most compact laptop. I wish it had a mini LED display but Pro Motion and the Pencil versatility make up for it

I still have mine, a 12.9 inch 512GB model I use it in tandem with my new M2 Pro MacBook Pro 16” I used my iPad Pro at school and work, my MacBook is reserved for at home mostly and when I travel out of town.

I bought the M1 iPad Pro 12.9 16gb ram and 1tb of storage and I love it

I have a 4:3 lcd monitor!!! (1600x1200) Both ipad pro m1 2021 and ipad air 3 a12 does not crop!! it fits perfectly. whether you airplay to mac or use hdmi

I love my M1 12.9”. My workflow with video meetings and the MagFlött magnetic stand makes it super great for productivity. Almost replaces my laptop in most cases.

Ipad pro 12.9 is absolutely amazing… its with me…taking notes.. netflix… and others..

The iPad mini is great to hook up to an external monitor, I'd love to have better use of screen real estate while docked. I can why see it wouldn't matter with the 12 incher tho.

I use this for school and it is amazing!

Amazing review 😍

I literally loved this video.

Im getting an m1 11 inch in 5 weeks! Im so glad you made this long term review.

Huawei makes a display called the Huawei Mateview which has an aspect ratio of 3:2. In a couple of KZfaq videos I’ve watched. When you plug an iPad Pro into the display. It’s almost able to fill the entire display although, there are 2 thin black lines going across vertically from the sides like slightly bigger side bezels. Therefore, I think if you were able to find a display that matches the aspect ratio of the iPad. You would be able to achieve a video output that fills the entire display without any black bars.

The m1 iPad is future proof, but runs into the limitations of the software. The 12z chip still performs as good as the m1. Maybe the m1 is a little faster with small things that really wouldn't* bother anyone. I just got the iPad mini lol I'm about to sell everything else haven't turned it on since.

The screen was what made me return mine. The blooming just annoyed me so much and physically hurt my eyes. Waiting for the inevitable oled iPad.

My man started wood working. Yes! Try Fusion 360! You’ll love it.

Enjoy my 2tb version but iPadOS holds it back. Video storage needs for projects the need

I have a refurbished 2018 11” iPad Pro I feel the processor is fast enough for all the drawing and schooling/multitasking I do that I feel the M1 is kind of overkill unless you’re doing hardcore video or 3d rendering.

Loving my iPad Pro 11 inch M1

Show us some of your finished woodworking projects! :)

YES! Move the damn camera to the side already!!!

I have the 4th gen and i love it and was thinking of getting this one but im waiting until they release the 6th gen maybe the 7th and see what they bring to the table then. The 12.9 is perfect the way it is now but im thinking they’ll add an even bigger batter and better speakers.

In case that I can sell my Macbook pro 13' 2019 and put some money on the top , I will buy an Ipad Pro 12.9 too. Ive watched tonnes of videos about it and still hearing all the great things what you can do in your daily routine or in your job. For me it is so important to have a strong long life device to reach my goals in my job or in my freetime. I agree a lot with you guys if you telling that i cant replace a real computer or Laptop but it works in so many ways for all these people around the world, so I have to give this masterpiece a chance too!

External Monitor support is actually the only reason i need to move to a MacBook instead of depending on the ipad . It’s unacceptable that we still dont have this sorted. The iPad could literally have been my only device if proper monitor support was available,

Love my M1 iPad Pro 11. I am a Realtor and Property Manager, and my iPad Pro has completely replaced my MacBook Pro as my business device. The iPad Pro is literally the perfect computer for what I do. It was an easy decision for me to get rid of my 2019 MacBook Pro(hated the dang ribbon bar). I got the new M1 Mac Mini with 16gb ram for desktop, and a new 11" M1 iPad pro for my mobile purposes. I chose the 11” because the screen is big enough for doing work on, but still super portable. Paid less for the two of them together than I did for just my MBP. It's the perfect setup for me. I create and work with contracts, pdf's, and documents on a daily basis. It is so much easier, convenient, and more intuitive to use the iPad for the work I do. In fact, I would go so far as to say, in my opinion the laptop is limiting and cumbersome compared to the iPad Pro for the type of work I do. Jeeze, even the camera on it is good enough to use for most of the photos I need for a property listing. It streamlined my workflow, and has definitely made my work more fun. Cloud storage is cheap nowadays, as is fast external storage. I got the M1 iPad Pro 11 with 256gb, but have 2TB iCloud+ for $10 month, 1TB of cloud storage with MS Office 365 and OneDrive. I also have 2TB of Google Drive storage for $10 a month. On top of that, I have a couple of external 1TB USB C SSD's, and a few USB 3.1 512GB flash drives. So, storage is not a problem. It easily runs any of the realty apps I need to use, so only 8gb ram is no problem. And, it has the same M1 processor the 1TB and up models have, so power is also not a problem. Don't have the magic keyboard but bought the Logitech Combo Touch and I love it. I also bought a Logitech MX Anywhere 2s mouse, and an Apple Pencil 2, both of which are the best. I have a few choices for carry. First, is a small traditional laptop case with many zippered compartments. Second is a nice REI sling bag with lots of pockets and storage. Last is a small REI backpack with even more pockets and storage than the sling. I can carry all the accessories I need with any of my carry choices. Working with a product that you like to use is an important key in business. No need for a dedicated camera or scanner anymore. I also use it for handwritten and typed notes, daily planning, task management, to-do's, email, web browsing, phone calls, messages, entertainment, reading books, play an occasional game, and the list goes on. I use a bunch of realty specific web apps and services but have a few others that I really like. For note management I use Notes, OneNote, GoodNotes, and Noteful. I also use a Paperlike screen protector and my Apple Pencil 2 for a natural writing experience. For document management I use MS Office, and PDF Expert. For file management I use Files, iCloud+, FileBrowser, Tonido, OneDrive, and Google. Now that I have used the iPad Pro for work, there is no going back to a laptop. The Apple ecosystem is the best. Everything just talks and works with each other seamlessly. As of right now, I have the Apple TV 4K/AirPod Pros/Apple Watch Series 6 44mm/iPhone 12 Pro Max 512GB/M1 iPad Pro 11 256GB/M1 Mac Mini 16GB RAM/256GB SSD/2019 intel i9 2.3ghz 16gb 512gb 16" MacBook Pro(sold). Really cool having an all in one that’s easy to use and light to carry for your business and personal needs. I will admit that iPad OS still has a way to go but has certainly come a long way from its humble beginnings. Been using Apple products since the mid 90’s. My first Apple computer was a Macintosh Color Classic in 1994. I am so glad Steve came back and saved Apple from the imminent death it was facing in 1997 and brought it back to the Apple we all know and love today. I'll admit that I actually cried when Steve Jobs passed away. Can't believe it's already been 10 years.

We love the 11”. It should last for years.

Pls talk about the 11 inch version!

With regard to RAM in the 1TB model. I use Procreate daily as an artist and the extra RAM in the 1 TB does make in difference in the size of canvases and the number of layers.

Literally, the more I think about it, that is literally more literally’s than you literally do in most videos. More literally’s, please!

For all those wondering about the 11 inch and took it back I hated it it was very uncomfortable to hold The bezels were to close so I was always touching things. The 10.5 is perfect I would say get the 12.9 inch yeah it’s heavy and it’s absolutely huge but I promise you after using it for a day you will never go back the big screen is beautiful and no I’m talking about a refurbished old one there’s no reason to get it in one crappy software won’t make a Lamborghini run any faster. I would definitely say 12.9 inch is a better pick Also for those wondering about a keyboard the bridge plus pro just came out and it literally makes the 12.9 like a MacBook

They increase the RAM usage in certain apps. Procreate is allowed to use more now.

What kind of microphone are you using, I like the way it sounds.

I got a crazy deal last week in the UAE on Amazon. M1 12.9” Space Gray 2TB Wi-Fi + Cellular model for AED 5,999 (USD 1,633) instead of retail of AED 9,399 (USD 2,559). Wondering what to do with the beast now.. 😂😂

I love mine, I use a Logitech keyboard and mouse when typing, might upgrade this year to the cover, wouldn’t mind some feedback on it. As for watching things on the iPad Pro 11’ it’s fantastic, as you said “ No Comparison “. The versatility is great too, take anywhere, just whip it out, read, watch, type and you’re away, battery is good as a rule and compatibility to anything Apple 🍏 is superb. Very happy I bought this, as I was going to go MacBook Air, I already have a monitor- PC and decided on this for travel and work. Can do most things a computer can but is great for watching KZfaq reviews and music on. No real gripes, would be the ultimate machine if you had compatibility with Mac.

Just recently ordered a 12.9" M1 iPad Pro refurbished with an apple pencil gen 2 and a magic keyboard for $917 total--I haven't had a tablet since 2014. I have a 2020 MacBook Pro 13" I upgraded to last year that I got for $840 (1TB, 32GB RAM compared to my old 2017 model w/ 512GB and 16GB RAM, I ran out of storage and needed more RAM as well for music production amongst other things) and I'm hoping the iPad acts as intermediary between my phone and my laptop. Something I can use while my phone is charging or use alongside my laptop for better multitasking. I am excited to watch movies on it as well since I was debating getting a TV (I don't have a TV in my house and usually watch movies on my phone because its more comfortable to hold than my laptop and it has an OLED screen, but it's very small to watch movies on) but decided that this would probably yield a better movie experience compared to a TV as well as be significantly more portable and be useful in other ways as well. I also plan to take notes on it as a university student. It is absolutely crazy to me that you can get an iPhone 13 Pro Max, an Apple Watch Series 7, a 1TB SSD 32GB RAM i7 spec 13" MacBook Pro, and a 12.9" M1 iPad Pro w/ a Gen 2 Apple Pencil and Magic Keyboard all together for less money than the current lowest spec 16" MacBook Pro alone. I'm super excited to see what is available in another six or seven years. :)

i love my M1 12.9. But i wish apple would make a final cut pro app. then it would be perfect in my eyes.

There is one desktop app that should be available on the iPads as well. Other than that I could do everything on all my devises.

About to cross over 2 years on my 2020 11in pro moms rocking my almost 4 year old 2018 11in pro. I am waiting for 2022 I want mini led with my 5g!

I wish they gave iPadOS a desktop layout when plugged into a monitor like Samsung DEX.

I bought a Bagsmart electronic organizer for my cables and I love it but I think I could fit an iPad mini in there 😅 i think I could’ve brought a smaller one😅 I do love the iPad Air and I think I might pick an iPad Pro up maybe…

I got a 12.9 inch too, and I have a ipad

When I bought the iPad Pro, I already had a m1 Mac mini and a windows laptop. I gave my laptop to my sibling since the iPad did everything I needed away from desk. Eventually, I realized I use both Apple devices for the same everyday computing just at desk and away from desk - so why do I need a mac mini if I can plug in my iPad? Alas, Apple always finds a reason to screw me over. The front camera is in the wrong place and aspect ratio is wrong for connected monitors making my mac mini still viable but unnecessary. If I knew this was going to happen I probably would've gotten a macbook which is same/over powered and portable. I just really wish the next iPad Pro fixes this - because that is my only reason to upgrade.

DAD: How does the screen compare to your new M1 Pro MacBook. Same specs or different ? Thx.

I have the M1 12.9 iPad-Pro. I’m ok with it, but the battery on my specific unit, it’s very mediocre. No, I don’t use heavy or demanding apps just (emailing, word, texting, and such) it gets very hot too.🥴 If I had to do it again, I would definitely would have gone for a MB-Air instead for all purposes & battery.

I'm gonna be getting the 11" iPad Pro M1 version through my phone company. Its gonna be a while before I get it because I live in Alaska. I'm getting the 128gb model.

The time has come to have extended display capability with the iPad. Why do we not have this at this time? I also agree with you about the camera. It should be optimized for landscape orientation. I have to shift my iPad to the right to center myself. I don’t have the M1 iPP. I have the 2020 model, but I think the same issues/shortcomings apply. Awesome content as always.

I’m a first responder (Fire/EMS) and I have both 11” and 12.9” M1 iPad Pros. The 12.9” is primarily at my office used for Zoom/MS teams, photo editing and teleprompter . While the 11” is what I carry with me to incidents. It has cellular coverage so I’m able to connect to my work’s VPN to access critical info or to send out evacuation orders. Both have the Logitech Combo keyboards which I find better suits my work because the case offers more protection than Apple’s magic keyboard case.

Hop on eBay you can find them so cheap I just snagged one for cheap love it so much!

Everyone missed the single most important development last week, the latest Blender alpha requires the latest Mac operating system, which means they are making changes to Metal. Go team!

That’s weird! I use Shapr3D primarily on the Mac and it’s buttery smooth on the M1 air.

So have you considered the somewhat smaller 11 inch iPad Pro?

Turn off the Private Relay for Safari when you’re on your home network and websites on Safari will be fast again…👍

Portland, JAMAICA in the Building !!!!!!

I feel like you need at least an Apple pencil with an ipad pro and that'll bring the price to over 1100 for the most basic model. It's just very hard to justify when a few hundred more gets you a macbook air. The screen is not as good but it is bigger so in many ways better for consuming content. To fully utilize M1 I feel like you need a magic keyboard which brings the price even higher. I think at a $800 price point it would be more convincing... I think I just convinced myself to get an ipad air.

I got my M1 iPad to replace the MacBook Air (Intel version) I had. While I do an iMac (M1), I find that I use the M1 iPad as my primary computing device. Because unlike the desktop or my former laptop, I can literally take the iPad anywhere.

I would love to buy the m1 12.9, but honestly, all I want is a big display that I can move around effortlessly. No keyboard, no charger. I love the software and I think that it's light years ahead of android, with or without the limitations. But then came the s8 ultra. If anyone can give any input I would appreciate it. I dont have an interest for dex and honestly, I am beyond tired of android. M1 is so much better than any other soc on the market and it still outperforms everything even if the games and apps dont make full use of the m1 power. But the s8 ultra is so huge... Honestly I'm really hoping apple comes with a similar size this year... but who knows. If the next ipad comes out this year, not only I will be caught lacking with a smaller screen(please apple) and worse specs. Hopefully Apple will give me some answers in the next 2 days.

how has your white magic keyboard held up? does it get dirty really easy?

Does the white keyboard get dirty quick and hard to clean?

how would you compare it to what you've seen about the new galaxy tab 8 ultra

And not lowering in price

Major niggle: Why does the smart keyboard have no Esc key? Or Media keys? At that price it should be complete. It could also do with more viewing angles

When I go to a party, that's the first question I ask.

How hard is it to keep the white Magic Keyboard clean?

My iPad Pro I just brought last week seems to eat at battery. How do you fix it?

Where did u get the wallpaper

Hey im thinking of buying the Ipad pro 2020 (12z) with 128gb instead of the M1 air 64gb. The 12z is just 20 dollars more expensive and it is apple certified refurbished. Do you think its a good buy?

If you live near Microcenter they have the 256gb for 1k and the 128 for 899. And you can use your college discount if you are able too. But at this point I would not get this tablet because the next model is just around the corner. But if you are able to get this tablet at a good discounted price then go for it because the M1 chip is so good it will last a very long time. It has not even reached what it is capable of on the iPad. The prices should come down a good discount once the next model of iPad is revealed. I do not expect a big change from 2021 to 2022 but I think it is worth waiting. Apple really needs to upgrade the iPad software instead of holding it back. I think the iPad could potentially be the ultimate tablet once it happens. That is one thing iPad has over android tablets. Updates for years to come and software support. I think I am going to get the next ipad. I have the Ipad pro 2017 and ill hand it down to my sibling.

Can you do a review of the Mateview huawei it has a 3:2 aspect ratio it should fit with the ipad

Waiting for M2 iPad pro 11"

I'm only considering this Ipad because of the screen :(

I havent used my Ipad in a long time after I got my macbook air

Very odd that o once you stream the video isn’t cropped.

Those are the best parties m8

How about extension on ipad if there is new about this i really want a much of extension but safari didn't allow that .if u have any information about this issue

i want the 2 tb model because i like to watch my itunes movies on it. you cant imagine that?

For me, it definitely didn’t. 3 weeks in, the pencil wouldn’t connect and the touchscreen won’t work. Currently typing with a mouse

3d CAD is essentially my profession and hobby and let me just say, 3D modeling on an iPad is terrible compared to a computer. I tried and the experience is just clunky and not as great as using something like fusion360.

Your complaint about landscape should be easily fixed by using the feature that the M1has to center the subject while in landscape mode. Not sure what it’s called but when I’ve seen it in action it centers the subject or subjects to the center of the screen. So to me that complaint is lame. Other than that I like your review.

Do you use any screen protector for writing on your ipad with apple pencil. let me know if you are using Paperlike or something else. Thank you.

I've heard many Ipad Pro owners say that the device has an abundant amount of battery drainage. I need someone to confirm before purchasing!!

But why does my M1 IPad Pro heat up and screen dim when using Lightroom 😵‍💫

if im video editing with footages off my insta360 4k how much actual space do i need? i am just planning to do motorcycle vlogs and editing with luma.

I’ve hooked it up to a vga monitor and it fills the screen. I have no idea why or how.

Gary. What are you using for a screen protector?

Every manufacturer should be made to bring back 3.5mm headphone jacks.
