Very nice video! I recognise myself in these issues as well, an iPad is just not there (yet) for a lot of more advanced workflows. I tried, really tried, but it annoys me so much and makes a lot of things that are very straightforward on Mac just a lot slower. You explained everything very calmly and honest, without any over the top production. Keep it up! :)

Man, I swear... you hit me painfully. I just bought an iPad haha. I have my hopes up but I guess only after trying to use it I will find out if I need it or not. And I also bought a go pro. One of the worst purchases I had... completely useless... for me.

I understand where you're coming. But in my opinion, it comes down on how you'll gonna use it. I personally find my iPad so useful, because it eliminates some of my struggles like putting tons of books on my backpack, I'm a person with disability and yes, I'm in a wheelchair and I personally struggle a lot putting all my heavy books in one place. With my iPad I can just download it digitally and do most of my school work on one device without any hussle. It's also great for entertainment too! I hope that your opinion doesn't change by a single 10 minute video. I suggest you to immensly explore the true potential of the product before thinking it as a waste of money or worse return it.

Don't buy an iPad. Many people will buy it with the intention of doing productive stuff like writing important notes, doing graphical or video-editing-related stuff, etc. - but in the end all everyone does is wasting time with it. During the pandemic I wasted a good chunk of my time endlessly watching videos on the sofa or playing mindless games without a goal. As soon as I realized this (sadly, only after the pandemic) I sold it.

Literally me; had an M1 Air with Pencil and Magic Keyboard (it was like 1100€) to use as a companion for my M1 iMac with the intent of doing productive stuff. After i realized i only used the iPad for watching KZitem I sold both the iPad and the iMac and got myself a M2 Air 15" with 16/512GB. Never regretted this choice. Plus, now I hook up my MBA to my Studio Display so I have the convenience of both desktop and laptop.

The irony of this video is that I just bought an iPad mini with the sole intent of using it to tether directly to capture one, but once I got it i decided to try the free version of Davinci resolve and I loved using it. It has some limitations on the mini that it doesn't on the m1/m2 models but it's still really decent. I hate hate hate subscription software so I wasn't really interested in trying fcp on the iPad. Thanks for watching!!

I’ve had a couple of iPad Pros, I have the M11” Pro currently. And I am comfortable in stating it is nothing more than a larger iPhone. And nothing more. Having the Apple M chip is a total waste of time, and whilst it may do some fancy video editing, it lacks any decent ability with emails being use it’s based on a mobile phone platform.

Thanks for the video. In searching for reasons to actually buy one, I found yours. Now, I used to be a photographer and my use case is different. I want a fancy tablet paper like experience to take notes. But I've been struggling to justify one and your video kinda reassured me that I don't actually NEED one. It'd be useful, yes, but more on the luxury side of things than I'd like to admit. That said, I can't thank you enough. So, THANKS!

I have the same feelings about it. Got both 12.9 M1 and simple 9th gen, but really - can't find any use for it, except maybe some mindless content browsing. But a glorified KZitem machine for $1000 is a waste of money. Browsing webpages, searching for info is both not fast and not convenient on it, sound and screen is nice for sure. But usability is pretty lackluster. Android ones seem to be even worse. Subscriptions models for apps seem to be because many of apps require certain cloud infrastructure and people to maintain it. So companies offload operational costs on their customers.

Too true. Thanks for the honest reveal. Apple forgot that it was making devices for ... people. And that people's needs haven't changed since 1983 with the first PCs. What we need is word processing, number crunching, visuals editing - and that's all. With a file system that allows very fast, bumpless moving of files. And on all but visuals, the iPad falls flat. (This from a user who's owned a ton of iPads.) The iPad is an asteroid. It's great for musicians and artists and other space travelers, but that's it.
