      It depends I like the power of my MacBook Air m3 however I love how creative I can be when I go on my iPad with the magic pencil. I would still choose the Mac because off the bigger screen size and the MagSafe charger

      Personally I used more iPad for entertainment and Mac for work. But I think that for students an iPad with stand cover with keyboard is the right choice but if you look at the price iPad + keyboard and pencil is more expensive than a MacBook with keyboard integrated (and no pencil).

    iPad is a device that stole my heart. When I last went to Japan, I used my iPad Pro for so many things: watching shows, using apps and games on a long-ass flight, booking hotels, sending emails, etc. I still think Mac is better for getting serious work done but the iPad Pro with the Magic Keyboard and Pencil is a damn versatile device. If I had to pick one, iPad Pro all day!

      Hey, so I was wondering if it's any good for writing papers? I recently went into Best Buy, and I was looking at the MacBook and iPad Air pro they had on display (which is also on sale where I am right now, which is another bonus), and the MacBook looked so insufferably dim compared to the iPad? The man who was helping me said the iPad runs just like a MacBook, and would be just fine for college work. Would you say this is true? I'm a new student and can only afford to buy one or the other right now, so I'm a little scared, lol.

    I’m a senior in high school, and for the past three years, I’ve been using a MacBook Air for my schoolwork and some basic editing on my iPhone. But when I got an iPad Pro M4, everything changed. I now use my iPad Pro more than my iPhone and MacBook because it can handle everything I used to do on both devices, and I don’t need to use a lot of notebooks since I can use my iPad instead. I’ve even set up my MacBook as a desktop, and my iPad has become my main device for editing and schoolwork. 2:08

      @@evelynn6832 I'm a college student and I had both a macbook pro and an ipad pro. But I use the ipad way way more than my macbook, so I sold the macbook because of that😅.
      The only times I really needed a macbook were for certain softwares, or "apps", that were not available on the iPad but were available for the macbook. For example, there was an app called "Lockdown Browser" where we had to use it for taking exams. It only worked on the macbook but not on any tablets.
      So~ for that, I'm planning on buying a Mac mini instead of another laptop. The mac mini is basically a macbook's brain. You can connect the mac mini to your iPad and use that as a display!
      Overall lighter, cheaper, more versatile!

    What you kinda forgot to mention is that cheaper versions of the iPad exist. You only compared the iPad Pro but there are also people that neither need pro apps like final cut or a window based multitasking system (stage manager) and just need a very basic computer for Webbrowsing, Email, PDF and note taking a around 400€ base iPad could be a great option maybe even as a chromebook alternative. Prices that low aren’t possible with MacBooks.

    I own a MacBook and an iPad, I love the iPad and use it everyday. I bought a magic keyboard for the iPad last week, I thought i would try use the iPad only, but after like 5 minutes I wanted to throw it out the window. The keyboard it self if great, I actually like it more than the macbook keyboard. But it was just small things like three finger click didnt work, i couldn’t copy from ChatGPT and my text books (?!), and it just felt laggy when I edited text. I found work arounds but it wasn’t worth it so I returned the keyboard. I’m lucky to have both but if i could only have one it would be the macbook because it feels more trustworthy. But I love the iPad the most. My workflow will be using my iPad for lectures and studying (writing mind maps, reading, watching videos) but if i need to write an essay i turn to the macbook. Also we write our exams on computers and i don’t think the safe exam software works on the iPad. :)

    A macbook air combined with a ipad mini with apple pencil pro is the best setup ever. I do lots of notetaking on my iPad, but sometimes I have to pull up digital readings, and doing split screen and then trying to take notes just gets so messy and annoying. Thats why the second I get the chance, I will be buying a Macbook just so that I can have two distinct screens and devices.

    First of all, I really enjoy your videos. You have a very unique style of editing your videos especially your intros.
    That aside…
    Yeah I own both iPad Pro 11 and MacBook Pro. Even tho my iPad has M2 and MacBook M1, I feel like Mac utilizes more M1 than my iPad using the M2.
    I’ve tried several times to replace my MacBook with iPad but every single time I go back to MacBook. I think I’m the only one who will say that when it comes to getting work done, the MacBook feels more intuitive than the iPad.
    macOS feels like home to me. While iPad doesn’t feel like that.
    I’ve tried to use google slides on iPad’s safari but man that’s a lot of pain in the back and the same goes for graphic design (even tho pencil is great for it), file management and everyday to day tasks.
    Now, my iPad is mostly used for gaming that’s all.
    I think if people need an iPad but they love the Mac then they should go for iPad mini because the mini won’t give you the thoughts of replacing the Mac but will act like a companion device like an iPhone.
