The M2 iPad Pros have been out about 18 months, so I wanted to talk about how my 11 inch Pro has held up and make a general plug for the oft-overlooked 11-inch iPad Pro.
Saw this just go on sale at Best Buy for $599. Considering upgrading from my 2018 pro 12.9" . I feel like 11" might be the sweet spot for me. I already have the magic keyboard.

With external display support, I think the 11 inch makes sense for a lot more people now.

Just brought it at Best Buy. No brainer at $600. Especially when I already have magic keyboard and apple pencil 2. Not buying a new set of keyboard and accessories.

@@Nomadicways which magic keyboard do you have? The one I have fits my 12.9" pro perfectly, I feel it's gonna be too big for the 11" . Are all the magic keyboards the same size?

I’m still using the M1 12.9” Pro with no complaints. All “new” iPads are overpowered by a factor of 3-4, in my opinion, so they stay relevant as tools for power users for many years.

Agreed. If I wasn’t into gadgets, I’d stick with either an M1 or M2 iPad for years to come. It annoys me that people treat that extra headroom like its a bad thing.

@@SlatePad Apple wants people to think of and use the iPad as a transformative touch-screen laptop. So, they make them have the same general ‘usable” lifespan(s) as they do the Macbook.

1000% agree on this. I think that also explains why they can cost as much as a MacBook.

@@SlatePad Agreed. And I think Apple omitted function keys from the Magic Keyboard because they didn’t want to encourage people to dock the iPad on the keyboard all day and treat it like another laptop. The keyboard was meant to be a special case use functionality accessory and not a permanent home for the iPad. But Apple caved to the outcry and put function keys on the Magic Keyboard Folio for the iPad 10. And given how well the 3rd Party equivelents with function keys sell, I think Apple will adjust their next version of the Magic Keyboard for the beefier iPads.

That’s an interesting take. I always assumed that the Magic Keyboard didn’t have a function row because someone at Apple had (perhaps correctly) decided people don’t really use function keys anymore. The same thinking that gave us the Touch Bar. The person clearly isn’t there anymore, so I also expect function keys on the next iteration.

I did upgrade, but it was a tough decision. My M2 Pro wasn’t giving me any issues and I really liked it.

This is the one I use: www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-27gp950-b-gaming-monitor You’ll need an adapter to connect to it, since it doesn’t come with USB-C. I end up plugging it into my Thunderbolt dock. But it supports up to 144 hz, and I can use it with my gaming pc as well.
