  • So many of you have been asking me to test out iPad Pro gaming with a controller... so I went to my nearest Apple store and picked up an Xbox controller and went to town! In this video I demonstrate how to connect a controller to you iPad or iPad Pro via bluetooth and test Minecraft, Call of Duty Mobile, PUBG and Fortnite in order to see just how effective the controller really is with iPadOS gaming.

      While Microsoft Office has been a big seller since the first Apple Store (and even before Apple started their own stores), I get what you’re saying and I wish more of the games built for Windows were ported to iOS/MacOS.
      The iPad Pros were outpowering intel-MacBooks for years (but less RAM, better iGPU than MacBook, not as good as discrete GPUs for MacBook Pro but was still able to render 4k Video from editing faster), so it’s going to be very interesting now that Apple has announced they are transitioning to using the iPad line of processors in their laptops over the next two years. Makes sense to port games that will run on iPad and MacOS natively. I saw some retro game emulators running on iPad Pros... the system is a beast, with more power than the Tegra+ SoC in a Switch.

    Just got mine in the mail today. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxhcEDB3r-OJ3_X5hQzr7k1ZofTQy1ao_U The corners of the box was a little smashed but I think that’s more of the shipping’s fault. iPad was in perfect condition though. I ordered the yellow one thinking it was going to be a bright vibrant color. Instead I looks like more of a Gold color. I personally prefer the gold look. Definitely not disappointed but just a heads up to the ones expecting a brighter cream of yellow.

    Just and advice for whomever is thinking about this regarding Fortnite gaming, sure new phones might have 120 fps or 60 fps but the controller delay is pretty bad (as a controller player myself on pc and ps4) its very noticeable especially for editing. building is doable but the editing and hitting flick shots is very difficult.

    7:53 If you turn the graphics setting on highest, the iPad Pro can definitely compete with XB1 and PS4. Also, if you chose to turn the graphics quality to medium or lower, you can play at 120 FPS with the 120 Hz screen, which isn‘t possible on console at all.

      I actually happen to know what's not allowed. You CAN play with a controller (with a keymapping app). You CAN'T use mouse and keyboard AND bypass emulator detection, that'll get you banned. You can however, still use mouse and keyboard if the device is detected as an emulator.
