I’ve been going back and forth on the Air versus the Pro for months now. I’m upgrading from a 5th generation Mini so either way it’s a win for me; my plan is to make it my editing workhorse for photos and graphic design, so knowing that either one could work well for that purpose keeps me unsure of which one to get. I will say though, having invested into a few OLED TVs in recent years makes the idea of a screen like that on an iPad super appealing..
It is very close. If you are the type to keep your devices for a while, then maybe the Pro is better for you if you can about the specs I mentioned in the first half. If not, I would maybe get a higher storage for the Air?
I am still on my 1st gen ipad pro 12.9 (2015), i still love it, it still does whatever I want as a student, but these days I considered to upgrading it to 11’ iPad pro M4 with pencil Pro because of the long lasting of Apple iPads, i am still shocked how was it possible for a device work like that after 9 years
Worth it! Thanks for your thoughtful review of the new iPads, Jon. It helps to see your real world use as I consider if I should purchase one of these models or an older one.
I’ve got an m2 air and love it. Got it mainly as it can connect to a display and is perfect for doing prep for my masters. Didn’t think I needed the extra power of the pro and honestly so happy with it
Great video! Oddly the deal breaker for me was actually Face ID. The screen was Olay for me but I ended up sticking with the 13” Pro and the 11” 2018 pro still works great for throwing around

Don't mean to be a troll, but I really like the dimensions of the samsung s9+. The 12.4 inch screen is much better size for viewing media while still being (just barely) able to hold it one handed. The 13 inch ipads are just too big to use as a tablet, for me anyways and the 11 inches is a bit too small for my eyes. I still use my older ipads. Maybe Lenovo or Xiaomi tablets of 12 inches are also good.
I recently bought the 2024 Ipad air m2 11" iPad. The performance of this iPad is amazing. But the only thing I didn't like was the quality of the front camera since its a bit "grainy". But overall the iPad is perfect
@@GuyA yup it is the perfect choice to opt for…I rarely use the front camera on it so it really doesn’t bother me. The performance of this iPad is absolutely amazing
Hi there! Great video.I would like to consult you... When preparing for an opposition exam in my country I need a lot of bibliography (many books) With the iPad Air M2 (2024) do you think it could be used to "scan (with screenshots) a book with images? Scanning a book, as I say, with screenshots, what do you think the result would be? Would the screenshots of the book with this iPad not give good results or, on the contrary, would the result of those captures be close to the images from the original book?, that is to say, the result of those screenshots, in which % would approach the images of the original book ?. I thank you in advance. kind regards
Sir please reply, this can change my buying decision, science you have both please answwer me 1) do you feel any difference in battery hours, which one gives you more screen on time for same work ? 2) in my country the difference in price is 300$ between these two, is it really worth it ? 3) i read in apple comunity that there is heating issue in new pro, is it true ? please reply
I always use Sketchup in my ipad pro m1,and i wonder when its come to M4 GPU or CPU performance how the app runs when you turn on SHADOW AND Ambient occlusion , however i found it lacking a little bit in m1. Thank you
Hi I hope u still respond to older videos 🤞I use DaVinci pretty frequently and want a tablet for general uni work. Given you said the editing workflow felt similar between the air and pro, is the 13” to 11” that big of a hassle? Does it ever feel too cramped?
I’m torn between M2 11” Pro or M2 13” Air. )Will be used for study). Do I get the M2 13” Air and sacrifice more screen size for less features but have a larger display which will be a lot better as I want to do iPad+Magic Keyboard as a MacBook replacement.. or get the 11” M2 Pro with more features but smaller screen size?
You’re gonna regret it, especially the 13 inch model since it’s a bigger screen. I had it and the 60hz was absolutely horrible, it was so noticeable when scrolling through articles and swiping left and right on the Home Screen felt sluggish, upgraded to the pro and the 120hz made an absolute difference. Now it’s butter smooth!!
@@JonImperial I was going to get the one terabyte for the extra… but I don’t know they say it’s at the most 14% output in CPU but in most task it’s 8 to 5% when Rams involved.. just sometimes I feel like because there’s a higher tiered option somewhat deficient but.. I think it’s just my skewed perspective
I got a 13 pro then returned for an 11 pro. It’s real nice as it drives a change in my lifestyle. Theres more motivation to bring it out of the house or use it during a commute. But the speaker is crap compared to the 13. If you are consuming content on the 11, good luck hearing anything outdoors without headphones. Most content cant be heard unless the volume is at 80% up. And the on screen keyboard does not have the extra row of number keys, and when its on landscape, takes up nearly 35% of the screen. Starting to think i should go back to a 13 but it is true that while it is great overall, with MKB it will tilt backwards and it does seem a tad big to bring out as a tablet. Sigh what should i do?
@@shartzie I guess I never tried using mine outdoors without headphones. 😅 What is your gut telling you? Haha. To be honest, I wanted the 13” but after using both, it was clear to me I wanted the 11”. The 13” felt too cumbersome for most of my use case.
I am a engineering student i used a android phone If i buy an ipad is their will any problems of data sharing? It will be 1st apple products but i am confused which should i get My preference are 1.

Get the air. Larger display . Its the best way. The m4 pro is so ... meh. I dont think ill ever get ipad again. Its not that great. For my personal uses. But if you need a video editing tablet GET THE IPAD
The fact is nobody really needs to spend more than $349 or £349 for the very basic iPad because it does 99% of what every other iPad does for about 20% of the cash of the pro. The iPad Pro models are an absolute waste of money and they are essentially taxing consumers at 30% to buy them. I owned one three years ago and it was the worst value for money tech device I’ve ever had because I couldn’t do the things I wanted with it. You have to adapt to how Apple wants you to use it and to be quite honest, in 2024, people shouldn’t have to live like that. If people want to understand my argument better, Google search the law of diminishing returns. This essentially summarizes the madness of the iPad in a manner that even the dumbest of people can understand.
