Thanks for watching and God Bless 😊 - Наука та технологія
I upgraded from a 2017 10.5 pro to a 2022 iPad Air 5 last summer. I don't need a thing the pro offers, and I don't miss promotion and can't even tell a difference. This tablet will last me a decade. The Air is awesome.
Is it worth to buy an air 5 now
@@A1tinCreates-AR just ordered 😊
@@A1tinCreates-ARhell yeah
I was curious how was pro compare to this one
@@JustgambleitI have the air 5 and use to have a pro. I don’t see the pro motion at all. Just get the air if all you do is surf the web.
I think the base model m1 iPad Air is excellent.
Half of the time, I used it with an external monitor, with Magic Trackpad, an external monitor, and a sound bar, I will say it act like a Mac mini, or Apple TV in this way. For simple task, it is indistinguishable from Mac. This is definitely a game changer, and it is possible for everyone to use iPad as their main desktop and laptop.
Other times, I used it to consume content, on the go. Netflix, Apple TV plus, UA-cam, works amazingly. I could check email, news, conveniently. And in school, I used it to take notes, which is amazing. The Apple Pencil is pricey, but I found it easier to organize digital notes than physical notes. The one note, and apple note app is amazing. I used free form to brainstorm idea with classmates.
For the battery, I say it is fine, but not spectacular . I can watch about 5-6 hours of Netflix in one full charge, or 6 to 7 hours watching UA-cam, which is not as good as Mac book air, which battery last for 2 days per charge. But the less than ideal battery life is not such a big problem for me as half of the time I used it docked while charging. Thus I always get full battery when I need to take it out to use it on the go.
I really recommend people, especially students, to get the iPad Air. For student, you can get a cheap Apple Music subscription, with free Apple TV plus included. And watching movie on iPad, external monitors, is much more enjoyable than the phone. And the whole package, the set up I have, with education discount, is still cheaper than a MacBook Pro 13 inch, or even the larger variant of m2 iPad Pro. Yes, you will miss out the pro motion, but the difference is that large on the iPad. And as I don’t play games on iPad, I don’t think it worth that much in upgrading the storage. The base model should be fine.
Thanks for sharing
Yeah I just got this iPad, but I’m still a bit worried about battery life, is it normal to last 5-7 hours?
@@Satoru_Gojo5 it depends. Watching UA-cam give me about 7 hours battery life. Reading pdf easily give me full days.
However, I know some iPad Air has defect that they get hot, with very poor battery life, just 2-3 hours watching UA-cam. You could feel if your iPad is build good, by ensuring it’s back does not flex.
I think this is the best video you’ve done so far! Really well done man! You’ve grown a lot in your craft
Thanks!
Just got the 256GB model for $599.99 with the back to school sale. The M1 chip is a beast.
how can you get the back to scool sale?
@@zeeesealook on Amazon I bought mine for that exact price a bit more for taxes (of course) but it’s on sale I bought mine yerteday 💗 this Friday I will have it.
Lucky you
what about the battery life?
@@zeeesea just go to the education page
Video definitely helped me choose. I’m not worried about waiting for the 6th Ge. Now I’m getting slightly older with back issues this pad will be used mainly for lightroom and some video editing when I’m not able to use my desktop. Looking forward to buying this tablet tomorrow and owning it for a good 4 years or more.
I’m very happy I was able to help 😊
I’m very happy I was able to help 😊
For me it all comes down to the storage. If there was a 128 GB variant, all would have been sorted. Since there isn’t, if you reach out to the 256 GB, then might as well get the ipad pro
It should be starting 128gb
I think That the IPad Air is Underrated And Constantly Goes under the radar Because Of The Price Ladder….
I feel that too. People freak out about the mini and pro but the air is where it is at
Love my iPad Air 5th generation but definitely recommend to get 256gb like I did❤❤❤
I have this iPad and I mainly use it for productivity and school, so personally I don’t feel the 256gb is justifiable as 64gb is perfectly capable for students, so don’t waste your money on extra storage unless you really need it.
Hi! I wonder on average, how many hours per day do you use your ipad?
Kinda torn what to chooose. Am looking for something i could use for medschool since i'm an incoming freshman, something that'll last til internships and boards. Though i think i might get the ipad air 5. I'm on a tight budget but i wanna make good investment.
My other choices are ipad 10th gen, xiaomi pad 5, and galaxy tab s8. Really torn hahahahahahha but tenksss
I use it quite a bit. But the time fluctuates. I’d for with the air
As much as I loved my 2017 iPad Pro the M1 iPad Air caught my attention, I didn’t see no need to invest in another iPad Pro, the iPad Air has all what I need
What your take? I’m debating between 12.9 m1 iPad Pro or this one. Going to use it for studying, web browsing and entertainment. I’m just concerned that the screen might not be big enough, but it looks good in the video.
@@Justgambleit Wich one did you buy eventually ? I have to say I bought a air and the battery life is not the best
@@Mascarponecinamonroll I ended up going with m1 12.9 it a beast. Great battery life, big screen, fast performance from chip. Overall amazing
iPads a computer but it has limitations so it’s not bad to have a computer when you run into them. But overall I used my iPad 2 years now it’s been the best tool I’ve ever bought for editing photos.
What do you use to edit photos?
I love how you said God bless!
Amen!
My boss has the M1 iPad and when he saw me working off my Tab S8 Ultra and saw me having PIP and 3 apps opened and it could run our office's full desktop software, he ordered one himself! He thought Android tabs were cheap 5-year-old toys and now he saw the true power of Samsung! Oh, and it comes with the Spen! 😅
I swear everyone thinks android is trash 💀
@Tizen People just care about what others think if then is all! For some reason, even iPhone SE 2020 with a busted screen and weak battery is considered to be of a "rich" person! 🤣🤣 The peeps who think blue bubbles are everything, are usually the people who are struggling financially!
@1993rufus honestly.. there's this guy that I know that loves customizing everything, from every app to everything on his chromebook.. but he has an iPhone and makes fun of androids lol.
Bro the ipad can do this too. 💀
@@AndrewClare open 3 apps at a time?
I use my ipad as my main computer and the only issue that i am having is the battery life. I use the more space display option and that drains the battery from 100 to 0 in 4 hours.
Could you run office programs on it ?
I pair my iPad 5 (256 gb) with my new Mac mini m2. The combo works great as I can use the iPad as a laptop substitute (I have Magic Keyboard...but I suggest Logitech instead if you are buying , because cheaper and just as good) and anything I can't do on the iPad, I can do on the Mac mini...and the ecosystem integration is just yum. Sidecar works sooooo well as a second screen for my Mac. Oh and it just got more value now that it can run Final Cut and logic.
I can’t wait for Final Cut
Most people beef with air is the laclk of pro motion. I can't tell the diffrenat all and I'm a high refresh rate PC gamer. I think people know it doesn't have it so they think they notice a difference when they likely don't.
Me too can’t tell the difference at all.
Anybody with an Android can easily tell the difference. Especially on a screen of that size.
How long does the battery last😭. I need it for medical school and want to make sure it doesn't drain easily as I would want 8 to 9 hours for taking notes.
Yeah that should be good. But bring a charger always
I’m upgrading my old IPad pro 2017 after so many yrs and I’m glad I saw this review thank you ❤
Glad I could help
im looking to do the same thing, any regrets?
I know the culture is to upgrade and there are others who are satisfied and won't upgrade but I have a feeling I'll wait for yet another modle. I was so hoping that after the 5th gen of iPad Air released, that Apple would consider adding the color yellow as an option. It is not even my favorite color but to have it in a piece of technology just fascinates me. So, I will wait for further upgrades. I thought watching the video would convince me to just do it, but it's a big purchase. Like he said. 64 GB was not really enough. So if I want the most out of Apple, it looks like I have to wait and save for their next big thing! 😂😂😂
Watching this with my Air 5 😊
is the 64 gb is enouh for a content creator (mainly video editing) & also for sketching ,viewing drawings & 3d models..etc ( i'm an architect too:) )..thankyou
No it isn’t. That’s my only regret. I would say at least 512
@@AndrewClare what about the external ssd's ..in air 5 there is c-type port?.And how did you manage the storage?
Hey. I’m also an architect and i chose ipad air. Size is perfect for sketching and drawing 😊
@@saedricedquila6906 64gb not enough is it?
64 GB is definitely NOT enough for content creators.
I dont upgrade until the device dies..thats just me....i have used OnePlus 6t for last 5 years and just bought OnePlus 11 5G...plan to use it for next 5.
How do you define good battery life? .. just got a refurbished ipad air 5, checked battery with imazing and coconutbattery, only 36 charge cycles, in really good health. But drains more than I expected, over night -5% with no apps in background, no wifi or bluetooth, low power mode. 🤔
awesome video, andrew! what was the battery health when you made this video?
$399 at Walmart currently. I bought one as an upgrade to my 2014 Air 2. VERY much worth it especially at that price point.
Is it good? I'm thinking of saving up for it
@@Razyrspeedz I love it!
@@badGamrOK thanks
would’ve been great to test it out on 4K display with 60Hz..stage manager as well
I wish they launch Air 6 with 128GB as base storage that would be great buy with that M2
nonono we need pro to do this
Nice, hope you ordered it
If you reduce motion in accessibility the 60hz is more livable.
Nuce video. Do you think apple will lessen the price of this ipad air 5 once the ipad air 6 is released next month?
Apple probably won’t but it will be cheaper at Best Buy or Amazon
I'm considering buying one of these used for 300( from cex) is the upgrade worth it from the ipad 9
How is the battery life with maximum SOT
My brother is in market for new tablet, thinking about getting this for him. Their on sale right now and get it now before price goes back up. All he does is surf the web and watch videos nothing to taxing.
Hi,
thank You for the video
I am now thinking of buying this for Procreate, to paint with the Apple Pencil 2.
Is this setup is a good idea? (really for painting, oil, acryl...) is not this display too small for it?
thank You for Your answer in advance
Get a sketchboard with whatever ipad you get
I just bought the 256GB 5G version for $512 in very good condition. I’m sold. lol
Where did you buy it?
Love my iPad Pro, but I should’ve got the Air but the Air 4 didn’t come out until September 2020. I got the 2020 12.9-inch Pro… 😅
Nice!
ok i want a review on only the ipad, im not gonna spend double the cost of the ipad for some cases and gear.
Which iPad?
hey sir andrew, nice thoughts! just bought it yesterday and your video forced me to go samsung ta
does it have creaking and display distortion problem...people are just freaking about that on internet...plz update bcoz i really want to buy this
Happy 2nd Anniversary, IPAD Air (5th Generation).
how are you spending 10 h on the web!? mine is brand new and it lasts only 3 h max.. wtf
that's what apples spec say. but I get more than 3 hours
Nice, I dig the iPad Air. Although I use my iPad mini the most, I still rock my iPad Air 4 and it still works for literally everything I need.
Imagine a mini with an M1 chip!
@@AndrewClare probably wouldn’t notice. 😂 for what one does with it it’s already very fast
How's the battery backup?
Great
These tech reviewers are so funny. 1 year is supposed to be long term for technology
Hello there. Thanks for the video. Do you think I can setup my PowerPoint presentations on the iPad?
How futureproof is the 64gb?
It’s a bad idea. My biggest regret
God bless you as well my friend
you get 10 hours... what is the brightness setting ?
No probably not 10 full hours. Video playback is 10 hours
@@AndrewClare ok still good but at what brightness level?
Full 100% ?
@@AndrewClare what is the brighness setting? 100 , 50 , ...?
Still 60 HZ refresh rate😢
Yeah that’s the only downside
I have the same thing and I can't use it without the magic keyboard
Right? It’s so good
I'm glad i'm not the only one confusing stage manager and center stage. 😁
Came here thanks to your Insta post. Wasn’t disappointed. Great video and great review.
Thanks 🙏🏻
Ì freaking love your shot with the iPad in the middle with the AirPods Max Magic Keyboard and iPhone 14pro still in frame but not focused on that I absolutely love it and how do u pull it off so clean looking 😅just an amazing shot tho ❤❤
Hey it was shot with an iPhone. I set it up on a small table and zoomed in 3x. Lighting helped a lot
is it good for photo editing?🤔 good video!
Yeah for sure
I just hope they upgrade the memory to at least 512GB
Your ad was interrupted by a Google ad, so you have nested ads...
👍🏻 ok
get this if you can get the 256gb version for 649$
Subscribed ❤. Much love from India 🤍🇮🇳.
Thanks for the sub!
It's Apple pencil not magic pencil 🙂
I just wish they made a case like logi, like they did with cheaper ipad
U mean Logitech’s folio touch and combo touch? They do have cases for iPad Air 5..I’m currently using Logitech’s folio touch cover..
i guess the M2 iPad Air will be as „upgraded“ as the M2 MacBook Air, in a bad way: thermals!
The M1 gets under heavy load already „hot“ at the place the M1 sits before throttling and going to a acceptable temperature within 1-2 minutes, the M2 is even a „supercharged“ (with higher TDP) SoC than the M1.
Im also (after 1 month for studying) super happy with the M1, i got the 256GB version and you reassured me that 256 was definately the way to go (as expected from the beginning, 64 is poor)
In combination with my trusty 16“ M1 Pro base model i cant really wish for more (except rarely the Magic Keyboard would be amazing for the iPad but i prefer thin and super light basic covers)
The magic keyboard is way too expense it is a keyboard not a piece of gold
Extremely useful though
@@AndrewClare The entire point of the iPad is no need for a keyboard to use
@@chrispawl from your point of view. I love it and use it every day. Replaced my MacBook
How about battery life
It last me a whole day even though I game a lot
It can last about 10 hours watching videos
In a nutshell: he loved it 😂
Cons : 64G
I’ve that one
I want to get an iPad (my first actually) and was thinking of getting the 9th or 10th Gen just for drawing but I saw the Air 5 so I don't know which would be better.
And between 10th Gen and Air 5 I don't know which one is more feasible in regards to Procreate 😔
I would go with the air
@@AndrewClareexactly
I had air 4 but then shifted to android 😭
Please suggest i confused between air 4 vs air 5
I ordered Air 4 524$
Or should I wait for sale ?
I would get the air 5
@@AndrewClare please explain , my budget is tight. Is it worth to buy it in 2023
Please watch the video
@@nudge_17 very worth it
@@AndrewClareis waiting for air 6 worth it or just buy the air 5 now? I haven’t used iPad for 8 years ( My first iPad is ipad mini 2)
So ur sponsoring the Ugandan People’s Defense Force
Pretty much
i hate that it has no headphone jack, for me its dealbreaker
Galaxy tab -->iPad air
100% I thought the iPad would just be a beast since on paper it is, but nope, it's extremely limited with iPadOS!
DeX is amazing. I used to use my iPad for taking notes and doing work on it.. I can't believe I didn't know about DeX
No no no
@@AndrewClare yes tab much better
@Andrew Clare 1000% sure is! Samsung behaves like a computer and iPad still behaves like they did years ago at first launch! What's the point of having the M series chips if they can't even handle true multitasking
Entry level 64gb's of storage is frankly pathetic for any device storage is stupid cheap, yet Apple still wants to price the upgrade like we live in 2014 ..
Either bump it up to 256gb's or add an SD card slot so folks can do it themselves for the 7 extra bucks
Loads of people record using their iPad. Why not? You don’t really understand half your audience then again, you do look a bit dopey…
the only issue from this series is 64gb rom
I bought my 7 year old niece one with sim card for data and text, with the pencil 2. She enjoys it.
For school?
School, entertainment, her brother keeps tabs on what she looks at. Since she has no apple account, she uses his.
A 7 yr could do just fine with a normal galaxy tab or a budget iPad, the basic model. Why would u gift her an air......

Because I want her to have the best. I do not get to spend time with her or my nephew. I buy them tech and hopefully it helps them.
