Instead of spending $2000 for the new Textured Display on the M4 iPad Pro, get Paperlike for under $40!: paperlike.com/9to5ipad1

You’re not spending “$2000 for the new Textured Display on the M4 iPad Pro”. It’s not a stand-alone add-on. You’re only paying an extra $100 or so to upgrade to that. But yeah, $2000 does make a “compelling” case for buying Paperlike. 🤷‍♂️

My wife started using her M1 iPad Pro with Paperlike in January of 2022. She uses it a lot, and only recently replaced the original one because it was scratched and coming loose at the corners. Since there were 2 in the box this is a bargain.

They’re not making it more Mac like. We thought the same when they first added M1. We have to remember that the M naming is just marketing. The iPad Pro was always going to get “M1” since m1 was just the next gen X/Z chip.

@joshuamusser8893 25 күн бұрын

People always say this and I already had apps that ran my M2 ad redline max, and the additional power was my main reason for getting the new 13 inch. You can already not only utilize but get maximum potential risk from these chips. I don’t get all the whining about the power going to waste, maybe whine about something more useful like background tasks and the files mess

@commentarytalk1446 25 күн бұрын

Apple will focus on Accessibility features and AI in iPadOS plus the usual suspects of bug and security fixes and maybe new emojis and such like. Possible SM might get a new lick of paint with some animation effect that looks cool but does not change the functionality to be better. In effect, the budget cheap iPads are the best ones and the new iPads are always excessively expensive unless you're an artist or creative and the device pays for itself.

@rocketbrothers540 24 күн бұрын

I am in the same boat. I would really like to pick up the 13" iPad Pro, I am in fact waiting till WWDC to see what happens with iPadOS before moving forward. I feel that will determine my storage capacity, if it in fact gets more powerful software capabilities that could determine if I jump up to the 1TB option for more ram etc. If nothing much happens with the iPad OS... We then will know for sure apple has no interest in making the iPad a more serious computer.

Great “first impression”. I love that YOU did this review. It’s refreshing to see someone other than a MacBook Pro Stan review the iPad Pro! That’s like listening to a classical music lover describing Beats sound quality. This was informative, covering the improvements of all 3 devices reasonably quickly. You spoke to iPad users about expectations and use cases. You have the M4 chip, Tandem OLED and FACE ID, so this was an excellent update to the iPad. You were unapologetic about liking what you like. Nice job.

Thanks for the video, it is always nice to see the views of another iPad enthusiast. There do seem to be a lot of commenters saying that the iPad cannot replace the Mac, and in some respects that may be true, but everyone has a different use case. The company I work for (a multinational organisation) provide me with a Windows laptop (unfortunately), therefore as I do not need to get any serious work done for myself (besides a bit of personal admin) the iPad is a perfect modular computer. I can hook it up to a monitor, keyboard and mouse to make a computer; I can connect a gamepad to play great quality games; I can use the Apple Pencil to sketch or take notes in meetings; I can use an e-reading app to read books; I can use News+ to read magazines. It has been a long time since I was at University, but if one of the M-series iPads had existed when I was there it would have been perfect for my needs (taking notes, writing essays and searching online libraries). 🐬

It does my day to day stuff just fine, it edits my videos (LumaFusion) and thumbnails (Canva) perfectly fine. Thank you for making the videos, the new iPad looks amazing! I recently sold my M1 MacBook Air because the iPad does all I need. I may end up getting a MacMini, but the IPad sill kills it. I have a Linux Laptop that runs well when I feel like I need a “computer”. Thanks again!

Just got my M4 13” nano screen iPP and Magic Keyboard and it is fantastic! I’ve been using iPad Pros for my daily computer since the 2018 12.9” model and this upgrade with the thinner chassis and improvements to the keyboard make it the best Apple product I’ve ever owned - and that goes back to the late 1980’s when I first started using a Mac.

@garysong8163 10 күн бұрын

I’ve been a Mac user since the Macintosh appeared in around 1984. Through the years as the Mac Os evolved Macs were criticized for not having all the software that were available for PCs or they were limited in comparison when compared with their PC counterparts. Comparing Mac Os and iPad Os is like comparing apples and oranges….Pippins vs Granny Smiths you like your choice and it satisfies your taste. I’ve been looking at the iPad Pro M4 and for what I do nowadays on the computer the iPad is the apple for me. Whether people prefer iPads over MacBooks is a personal choice. Not everyone needs the power of the power user’s Macs. I just like the features of the iPad lately and go the Apple Store daily comparing them both. Pippin or Granny Smith? Choose wisely 😂

Apple products often have things that arent right with them, but rarely something wrong. This product continues that trend.

Coming from the 2018 iPad Pro 12.9 inch, I find the M4 13 inch iPad Pro to be noticeably more responsive in most tasks. Most notably, the response of the Pencil Pro in handwriting is better enough that I can now take cursive notes where previously I mostly needed to write in block script. But moving the cursor around to edit text also seems more fluid. In fact, when I went into Best Buy to look at the new M4 iPad Pros, I wasn’t expecting to like them enough to upgrade from the 2018 model, which still meets all my needs. But I was pleasantly surprised.

🐬 nice video. I got the 13” M4 as well with keyboard and pencil; coming from the 2018 version. I’m not a video editor or anything but I’m really enjoying the experience. It will never replace my company provided windows laptop I have to use but this does let me disconnect from that if I’m wanting to just work through my inbox, takes a teams meeting and even use Freeform to sketch out dashboard layouts that I’m working on. I got about 6 years out of my last iPad and hope to get another 6ish out of this one. I love the keyboard, but it feels a bit less sturdy than the old one…not from a materials standpoint but when you are using the touch screen.

Weak point of the old one is the LCD display with its dark patches and general unevenness, as well as greys instead of true blacks. Only doubt is the extra weight. The old Folio keyboard is so light that the new combo would add about 200g.

I think Apple is slowly evolving the iPad into a device that is capable of doing the exact same things a computer does, but in a slightly different way. Maybe the iPads will one day run software that is not more similar to iOS but more to macOS and utilizes the touchscreen and has its software optimized for touch. Apple is now known to approach things slowly and carefully, so perhaps that is true to the iPad development too, adding features carefully designed to be useful for the iPad while also making it more attractive to buy by adding features no-one really asked for but are still useful.

🐬Fernando is by far my favourite tech KZfaqr, especially for iPad content. I've got a M1 iPad Pro and I use it as a complimentary device to my M1 iMac (the iPad is my portable machine). And I take it everywhere, even for work so I can mark up 100 page reports rather than have to print and carry around all that paper from meeting to meeting. Or I use it to scribble notes down, again instead of having to carry around so much paper. And of course I use it as a content viewing machine. The Tandem OLED definitely has me intrigued. My only concern is that Apple does not offer any kind of top-up to the trade-in value with including the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil now that the older accessories are no longer supported with the newer iPad Pro. And in Canada, the whole package is very very expensive. Just don't know if it's worth it to upgrade but the FOMO is real and I know I'd use the machine and appreciate all the changes (especially that screen and the thinner, lighter footprint overall) but yeah, if there was trade in credit for the Magic Keyboard and Pencil in addition to what we get for our iPads, then I'd be heading to the Apple Store right now to upgrade.

there is not a process on my current M2 iPad pro cant do that the M4 is capable of. video editing, photo editing, etc. the only difference likely are import and export speeds. nothing else would be noticeably different

I returned the M1 iPad Pro due to that and haven’t looked back. I’m considering the M4 due to the screen for my photo work and would really love to know if that’s an issue that’s been fixed. Especially considering a lot more efficiency has been implemented via software and hardware by now.

🐬 Great videos, Fernando. I just bought a Magic Keyboard for my IPad Pro M1 12.9. I would gladly have spent the cash on the new keyboard with the haptic trackpad (I also have an M1 MacBook Air and I really like the trackpad on it) but sadly it is not compatible. Peace!

1TB does not indicate that someone knows what they’re doing more than 512GB. Knowing what they are doing is not determined by how much storage they want in a device. Apple reviewers keep using this excuse for Apple, but it's baseless. There's no reason why the “nano-textured” display shouldn't be an option for other storage configurations.

It makes sense because those are the more hardcore or demanding users such as professional artists or videographers

@pimisi 24 күн бұрын

@@chidorirasenganz I don’t buy that one bit. I know a professional artist who saves all his work to the cloud and has only used about 15% of the 256GB on his old iPad with the M2 chip. He prefers to save his work to cloud storage and then download them to his computer. There are lots of people who prefer it that way. Also, are you suggesting that before Apple introduced the 1TB configuration, there were no serious professional creators? No one should be compelled to buy what they don’t need just to have what they desire, especially when they’d be paying for what they desire.

My theory is that Apple is undercharging on the nano-texture screen. On other devices, this feature costs $500-1000 while on an iPad, it’s only $100. My reasoning they only allow it on 1TB or 2TB models is purely economical. They are taking a loss on the nano-texture while subsidizing that loss with storage profits. I suspect if they allowed that screen on base 256GB models, they’d have to charge $300 or more on it.

@pimisi 23 күн бұрын

@@techinrl9869 No one charges $500 or more for matte screens. Also, Apple charges $100 if you want to include the matte screen on the 1TB and 2TB config. They don’t chafe you less for the 1TB and 2TB if you’re not including the matte screen, so No, they are not offsetting any cost. If I want to add a matte screen to my 512GB config, I should have the liberty to.

With the lighter design I upgraded my 11" M1 to the 13" M4 and loving it - as you note it's light enough to use as a table now IMHO as well. While I love it and the new Magic Keyboard is very MBP like when typing I'm not sure I could give up my M3 MBP yet but they are definitely getting close. If I could dual boot MacOS on it... it's all I would need. Great review! I went 512 / cellular so only 9 core but my GB6 score are higher than most so happy to have won the silicon lottery this time around.

🐬 I upgraded to a 13” 2TB Nano iPP with Keyboard and Pencil from: a 13” first-gen iPP, a 2015 12” MacBook, and a 2015 iMac (basically making the M3 iPP my only Apple computer). Why? Because in 2017, when Apple went to the proprietary file system on macOS, it broke compatibility with all third-party accessibility software. As a user with partial Blindness, iPadOS is a far more accessible operating system than has been macOS since 2017. Yes, iPadOS has issues, as have all early edition operating systems, the complaints of others are valid. But macOS doesn’t work for me or likely many users with disabilities for whom macOS is inaccessible.

I have the 2020 iPad pro (one before the M1) and I am eagerly waiting to see what the new iPadOS is going to be like before thinking of upgrading to the M4, if there isn't much functionality change then its the same iPad as what I have just a bit faster, but if there's functionality like MacOS built into iPadOS then its time to upgrade, I wanted to have my iPad be my only computer but that functionality just isn't there yet and I have to use either my Surface Pro 8 or my 2018 Mac Mini for some stuff

@Chefcooken 24 күн бұрын

I had the 2020 as well, and upgraded to the latest because my iPad internal screen connection was dying (screen would go black randomly, but still functional if connected to external monitor). Other than switching from 12.9” to 11” I can’t tell a difference between the two on the day to day after a week of use. Daily use case of email, safari, numbers and sketching using Procreate. As of today, I’m fine with it, wouldn’t have minded if my old iPad lasted another year or three. Have a PC for 3D modeling or large spreadsheets and the desktop features of some apps.

I have the 2020 11” iPad Pro and I just upgraded to the 13” iPad Pro. I was thinking the same thing, maybe I should wait for the next version of iPad OS, but I went ahead and got it. I like it so far, the screen is amazing. I’m testing it out now, if I don’t like it I have extended return period to return it. But so far it’s great. I do zoom, teams, word processing, and light coding, and also discord. I want it to replace my MacBook Air 2020. Honestly I was so mad when they didn’t release proper external monitor support for my 2020 iPad. Idk what new features are in store, but so far I have almost no issues except when the battery is at 100 percent there are issues connecting to an external monitor.

My iPad Pro 11” 2018 model only started slowing a bit when iPadOS was installed but even then it was still quick and lovely. Excellent condition, battery still holding plenty of charge, screen still great so 6 years is certainly diable and possibly 7 or 8 years too.

Comprehensive review covering a lot of features and some use cases and comparisons. M4 is simply OVERKILL for iPadOS however. Until the OS can actually do simple desktop stop, people are better off going for the cheapest iPad and saving x4 money if they want a tablet unless they're an artist or creative or have a big budget. The "Let iPad Pros Do MacOS Things" won't go away and will only get stronger in demand from customers who put their trust in Apple's ecosystem and brand.

Lots of articles say that even ten-year-old iPads are still being used, repurposed due to their longevity and no doubt due to future-proofing by using the best chips available. I never will understand people complaining about overkill, it just does not make any sense. Surely even if you don't keep it for ten years, you can sell it to someone else. I class people who comment about overkill as flexing as they clearly do not understand that even for smartphones most users buy phones with chips that they will never come close to pushing. Should we only make less powerful chips because some people think that future-proofing and e-waste are not major reasons to buy?
