iPad 8 Review! In this episode we discuss the iPad 8th generation in detail to help you decide if this is going to be your next iPad! Any questions, comments drop them below and enjoy the review :)
I have lately bought the iPad mini 5, do you think it would have been better if I had waited for the iPad 8 as it got the same processor ? Although I’m very happy and satisfied with the 8inch size. Thanks a lot
iPads are amazing for note taking but terrible for zoom. I use my iPad pro for zoom and it’s just awful. If you want to do absolutely anything else while you’re on zoom like doing split screen to do some research or to open any other app like the notes app to type notes while on zoom, your camera turns off. You can’t do anything while on zoom, except be on zoom.
Honestly get a laptop it will always be better than a tablet. Should get this one for note taking. That is what I plan to do. Get this iPad just for note taking while I use my laptop for everything else.
Personally, i own the 2019 edition and its been an amazing purchase for me. I just use it with an apple pencil to write notes or to edit power points and i use it to watch anime or tv shows. Sure u gotta stick the apple pencil into it, sure it doesnt have the best display but in my opinion its absolutely amazing for the price! And the 2020 one even has an A12 now so it has all the basics that u need🔥. Great review as always btw!
@@disloyalmari9163 nah dont worry about that. The speed difference between the A12 ( whats on the ipad) and the A14 really cant be noticed in day to day tasks. I got the 2019 or the 2018 model, which has an A10 and it performes great. Dont worry about the performance
I got mine at Walmart for $399 and Best Buy had it for $429. It was the 8th generation 128gbs space gray. And I added the extended warranty for $50. Total with taxes was $481. Can’t be happier. Now I’m looking for the pencil. Cheers
I’m thinking about trading my 2 iPads for the iPad 8th generation. I’m keeping my Apple Pencil but I also need to get a trackpad to add with the iPad 8th generation.
u should buy samsung tab 2019 its looks amazing n smooth i have it it cost me same like that tab but samsung has better apps !!!!! and samsung tab from 2019 has headphone jack ipads always lag like mine did
One interesting tidbit about the non-laminated display. Replacing a non-laminated screen is much cheaper than laminated. My guess is that is why the cheap one is non-laminated.
The first generation Apple Pencil does at least come with a female to female lightning adapter so you can put the adapter on a lightning cable and charge the pencil that way without dangling it out of the iPad’s lightning port
Space gray looks so badass. Plus, you’ll be one of the unique ones because I know allot of people who’ll get Blue or Green! Hopefully you’ll enjoy it once ya get it!
I just bought my aunt one for Christmas she loves to ft but where she is older she has a hard time seeing her phone she also loves to play games and get recipes by far one of my favorite I pads for the price
Which apple adopter I should use to connect my Roland GW 8 Keyboard - Synthesizer - Workstation to iPad 8th generation to run & work on GarageBand & other DAWS ?
Yes it really costs more money to manufacture a laminated display compared to a non laminated display because laminating the display layers is complicated thus requiring different manufacturing process
I think this new iPad with A12 is the best in price you can get. It can do everything, now it’s the time no one really need a iPad Air or a pro. Of course they are better, but I think you can do more than 99% of all with this iPad 8th gen. For me my iPad 6th gen. is enough, so I would not buy a new iPad now. But for everyone who needs an new one it’s the perfect choice.
Random Dude98 I’ve got no problems with lags, but maybe for you it’s worth it. The A12 is much faster chip and it depend on what you’re doing with an iPad.
So I should pass the air 4? I like the old style over the new one. Only thing holding me on the new air is the blue A14 and that’s about it, The laminated display yeah is a bit of an touch to have. But the iPad 2 I still have I’m not bothered by the gap. I had a mini 5 for gaming reading my lyrics when I record music and a portable PC. I have an SE and iPod touch 7 there both a big gap on cpu but seem to be the same to me. Opinions?
@@Luka_935 you can't tell in everyday use.. only if you do high graphics gaming or do video editing etc.. i cannot tell a difference between A10 and A12..
Does this product at a price of $329 comes w a pen?My MacBook Pro can’t be started since yesterday and I brought it to the store , they said that it could be the logic board issue, and it takes 2 days to have it checked and will let me know the issue and repair fee. I currently wfh and don’t have a spare device to work on , then I looked around in the store and saw IPad 8 w/ 128GB priced just $329 with no pen, I finally bought it as the substitute device to get me through the 2 weeks’ work. Not bad but I’m still used to work on a laptop. So, Nick heres my question, if the repair fee is pricy, should I buy a new MacBook or a laptop from another brand ? U know ,it’s a capital world , I still don’t get it why my MacBook which has served me 4 years without any troubles before could never wake up since the night before.
Hi nick. How is it going ? I am an educator. I need an ipad for online classes and then recording my screen and putting it side by side to my face delivering the lectures. I am recording the lectures on iphone se 2020. Thats is the extent of video editing i need. Do you think ipad 8gen would suffice.? Thanks in advance.
For those who fear that 3Gb of RAM is not enough for multitasking Don’t be afraid, I have the iPad mini with the A12 and 3Gb of RAM and I can run multiple apps without reload and you can even have 3 apps (two with split screen and one with Slide Over) so 3Gb of RAM is really great It’s iPadOS after all, not Android that need double of RAM to do the same thing
I use google meet for school, and my teacher requires cameras to be on at all times. If i want to switch the app and take notes while the teacher is talking, does google meet close?
Can someone help? I'm planning to buy an iPad 8th gen for online classes, note taking, drawing and playing PUBG (only) and I'm pretty low on budget so would 32gb do it? I can not really go any high because it's already quite expensive with Apple Pencil so please tell me if it'll (32gb) do the job.
I intend to buy a new tablet, but I am confused as to whether I want to buy an ipad or another android tablet. I am not in the Apple Ecosystem. My smartphone is android, my laptop is Asus. So, is it worth it if I buy an ipad to use as my tablet? Will it bother me to transfer any documents and videos to my laptop and smartphone later?
what is the camera on the back like when you take pictures in a GYM (wrestling). I used a mini 2 before and it was okay, but is this better? Would it be better than say the 2018 ipad
Why does every review skip the fact the first gen pencil can be charged with the lead from your iPad with the included adapter plus it takes 10 minutes to charge to full, the fact you can charge it in the port is a bonus you only need in emergency’s when you run out of juice on the go.
0:08 it doesn’t come with an apple pencil, it SUPPORT apple pencil 1st generation (BIG DIFFERENT). You have to buy the apple pencil separately, if you want to use it with the apple pencil. Please, fix this is very very misleading...

does it not have the charging delay 5-30sec after plugged in like the ipad mini 5 and iphone xs max did with the A12 Chip?

It comes with support of Apple Pencil 1st gen
Ha ha ha
..right
..70 perecnt people will get it thinking that the apple.pencil comes with it.
ugh
Wait the 8th gen comes with a pencil?!?!?
Olivia Rae nope :(
Buy Space Grey. You won't notice the depth of screen.
Depth of screen?
yeah!!!
@@tillygrace63 its not a laminated display, so there is a gap between the display and the glass.
You wont notice the legacy design of the bezels as much, but no matter the color, ipad 8 is made with glass screen so there will be depth regardless
I just ordered one today!
Hollow feeling, best description of the iPad screen I've ever heard. I have an iPad 6th generation and love it but that display does feel hollow!
ytown4 I have iPad 6th Generation too. I might upgrade
Just buy few days ago together with the Logitech slim combo keyboard with trackpad. Runs very smoothly perfect for notebook replacement.
superb value for money iPad, detailed quality review as always Nick, hope the channel hits a million subs soon

Both would be a great choice they both can get that same job done will be more down to your budget

Reviewers always moaning about the look of this, laminated screen. The price point and capability is what sells this.
The 8th gen has much better nits than mini 5 if im not mistaken
I was thinking of getting the ipad air 4 but i really got scared cuz if u break the screen u break the touch entirely so more expensive to replace
