Makes me realize both home many Apple products there are I've never heard of, and how little products Apple has

[@marcustmusic]

I agree with pretty much the whole list. I am a primarily Apple user and with the iphone 12, AirPods Pro and Apple Music I say the one complaint I have with this integration is Apple Music doesn’t fully stop. The music would keep playing or a song would play randomly without me even pressing on the app cause the app doesn’t fully close out draining my airpods battery and phone battery ever so slightly. However I stick with Apple for a good reason or two. Excellent security and virus protection, fantastic integration, and build quality is awesome. But where Apple gets you is the prices, you have to be seriously committed to practically only use Apple products to get the full effect and when you spend more than $2,000 on tech, there really isn’t a way out if you wanted to leave the ecosystem at all. I would use Android or PC if it wasn’t for the large amount of frustration I get with these devices constantly needing updates(not updating) and how insecure they can get. Otherwise the designs on non-Apple products in my opinion are cooler and much cheaper but with tech prices rising and everything costing $1,000 anyways, going full Apple is not that far of a stretch. I’m one of those people who waits years before purchasing an upgrade and I would recommend this strategy rather getting the latest every year from any tech company period. Also knowing your habits and workflow also helps. Anyways all this to say great video and yes Apple is expensive and doesn’t allow much customization almost all but for me the benefits are convenience and lack of frustration and longevity. Plus prices are getting close to equal anyways but Windows will always be a tech industry favorite bc of the infinite customizations and easier to work with while doing coding.

How is the apple watch not “S”, there is literally not a better watch on the market. And if Apple Music is “C” because there is no reason to switch from Spotify to Apple Music, then by that logic Spotify is “C” as well. I think both are “A”, enither is better than the other.

While I’d agree with the F rating for the iPad Air 3 in 2020, I would have given it a B back in 2019 before they released the 10.2” budget iPad. At launch it made sense as an in-between model that was much nicer than the iPad 6th generation, but not quite as expensive as the Pro. Now given how good their cheapest option is it’s become so hard to see how the Air fits into their lineup. I picked up an iPad Air 3 about 5 or so months before they launched the 10.2” version and I am absolutely loving it and do not regret it. While the benefits are small, it still comes with a slightly larger, slightly better-looking display with slimmer bezels and True Tone, which I really love. Not to mention the A12 SoC is much more powerful than the A10, so the added life span is much appreciated. That thing just runs fast! Not even a bit of multitasking and photo editing in Lightroom can slow it down. Basically has replaced my laptop on the go.

@2:55 thats debateable, you should probably switch it arround. Macbook 1-2years(depends on how much apple care you get), and some windows PCs of the same price range 3-5(6, 7, 10) years. For example: Thinkpad T530, 2012, 20000+ hours still cunking with original battery at 25% wear. Thinkpad X230, 2012, 16000 + hours, still working great with the original battery with 394 cycles with 10% wear ... i think. Don't get me wrong. Pre 2016 macbooks didn't suck nearly as much as the 2016-2019 era ones, and its hard to know what will happen with the 2019-present ones since they are too new. But just a thought. In 2019 apple can't get the basics right: crappy keyboards, display cables, data encryped by default on catalina so if you don't fix the board no data :D, no lifeboat ect ect ...

My iPhone is a bit buggy, but doesn’t matter too much. Only reason I’d upgrade is maybe because of its bad battery. The iPad Air is AMAZING. I watched this video on it. I mainly use it as a KZbin/Netflix/Hulu Watcher. The reason why I love it, comes down to that this, for me was my main source of gaming (other than console) for a LONG time. Only a few years ago, I upgraded to a laptop. I mainly used it for MineCraft and Roblox. It worked pretty well, it’s only down-sides being its storage, and the controls. I have no plans to upgrade either of these in the next 3 or so years. (Eventually I will upgrade though.)

[@continentalglue]

The iPad Pro with the new iPad OS is 100% the best tablet experience and completes about 75% of the computing I'd require on a daily basis, HOWEVER, until Apple enables a more typical, robust and complete mouse + keyboard experience that mirrors macOS, I can't justify it as a daily driver. Sure I can edit video, update spreadsheets and kinda have multiple windows open at the same time (which took forever after 10 years of release), but if I'm not drawing, I still find myself reaching for my laptop to complete these tasks faster/easier and streaming a PC Game is a nightmare (via Steam, AMD Link, or Rainway) - reinvent the wheel sure, change my perception of what a PC is, but don't outright handicap legacy functionality because you still want people to buy the MacBook Air. Until I get more mouse + keyboard support, it might as well still just be an iPhone with a larger display for watching Netflix.

I changed my macbook for an ipad pro and now have a magic keyboard to go with it and it's honestly amazing. I agree with most placings except for the magic trackpad 2, it is expensive but it's probably the best trackpad in the world. It's huge, super responsive, the haptic whatever it great, the finish is great, the battery is eternal. It should be a solid A, imho. I had one since my macbook's trackpad died on me and used it with the ipad pro before i got the magic keyboard and it was great. Maybe my only complain is the pairing, it is a hassle to swap between devices and doesn't instantly pairs like the smart connector keyboard or the magic pencil, and that it's not usb-c but honestly you charge it one night and it lasts months so who cares. I do find it funny that you didn't even rate the smart keyboard folio or the magic keyboard with numeric keypad for mac. the keyboard folio is not bad but it's just not a product that should exist anymore with the magic keyboard for ipad pro, and the magic keyboard for mac is just terrible and ridiculously overpriced. So they would be D and F at most. If I could rate anything as the best apple product right now, it would be the 2018 iPad Pro because the difference in performance is minuscule compared to the 2020 one and getting it cheaper is a HUGE bonus at how good it just is.

I bought an iPhone XR in August 2019... I don’t know what got into me when I could’ve waited for a *CHEAPER* iPhone 11

[@RogueCarrot]

You guys should have done this video now, after the switch to M1 and all the product changes. The new iMac designs. The new 14" Pro. (Which I have and I love it) The death of the iMac Pro. The new Mac Studio. The new display. Etc. Speaking of the 16" MBP, that thing was a piece of crap. I bought one day one to replace my 13" 2013 model and at first it was fine, but I quickly discovered how buggy it was, how horrible the throttling was, how hot the darn thing got just sitting idle. I'm not even the only one who has said this. I've seen reviews where other people mention the same stuff. When the M1 switch came along I was excited. And as soon as the 14" was finally released I bought one day one to replace it even though it was only 2 years old. My previous machine lasted me 6 years and is still going without issues. I could have held onto it for 2 more if I had known. I traded my 16" in and they gave me back half its original cost after 2 years. Basically paid for most of my new machine. That 2019 machine was a misstep but Apple has since made up for it for me.

I have an ipad air😞 I really tought is was great, ipad ,i have owned it for two days now do you recommend sending it back and getting another ipad? (it’s mostly for drawing)

[@nie_mam_pomyslow]

No! I bought an iPad Air in 2019 when it was new and i’m still using it. If you have more budget than for 10.2” iPad, but not enough for an iPad Pro, than you can have it. It’s great. I have this iPad now for a couple of months.

[@dontbotherreading]

Which windows laptops are you using that you only expect 2 years out of them?

[@moaadem]

Curious about this as well

[@d4nyll]

Probably the Razer Blades, as they seem to fail after year one

[@plaz88]

can u guys plz do a review on the new remarkable 2 tablet plz it just came out and i dont know if its worth it

[@JackGordon]

“What? What? Wait... really? Dude, hold on.”

[@hvskyline1368]

I disagree with the no ipod touch thing as someone who dailys a music player being the hiby r5 and being partially a audiophile this is my own two cents there are a couple reasons you would buy this thing 1) you DONT get notifications from it and calls and texts and stuff on it you just plug in and tune out nothing to stop the music from playing 2) it takes up less battery life and storage on your phone and 3) a lot of the parts are made specifically for listening to music whereas if you use a phone they have to budget music gear for a nicer processor and screen and everything where as if you buy this or ANY audio player they are going to budget more for the DAC and amplifier to make it sound better because that's its intended use case

[@micahwilgus]

The 13 inch MacBook Pro is for people who want power and portability. You still have more expansion options since you can have 4 thunderbolt ports instead of just 2.

[@YashAtishay]

I think you could have given the magic mouse a D, I hate that thing too but I had to once use it at a friend's place and I loved the gestures the glass top has

[@DoctorX17]

I agree the iPad Pro is pretty amazing, but... I dunno if I could use it as my main computing device. The lack of windows and the way the file manager works is just... bleh. I haven't tried it with a mouse and keyboard, but I'd really want, say, a snap-on keyboard that makes it more like the Surface Book -- a proper laptop/2-in-1 form factor, instead of a keyboard with a stand that needs a table. It is really really nice to draw on, but I still prefer my Cintiq on my desktop since I can more easily do things like bring in reference images [or have them on another display], keyboard shortcuts, etc. That said, the iPad Pro is perfectly capable if I just want to draw and not be at my desk. More recently I got a 2018 MacBook Pro, and I really love the sidecar feature. And it just *works.* It was kindof mindblowing the first time I did it. Now I wish there was touch support... And I didn't realize the Pencil worked, so I'll have to try that out for drawing on the MacBook Pro, although I doubt the MacBook Pro will be my main computing device either, as I'm really a Windows guy. I'm appreciating MacOS and some of the features, but I still can't get over some of the weird things -- like the fact you can't type a directory path in Finder to go to a specific folder, the fact you have to 'quit' applications to actually close them, some of the weird security things you have to go digging for... Things that just feel a lot easier and more polished on Windows. Not to say Windows is perfect either...

8:35 thank you austin.....thats gonna hunt me in my nightmares

[@prajaybasu]

Apple Music is now great with lossless and Spatial Audio. Now we have almost 3 generations of iPhones (including 14) which have the new designs which makes it a harder choice. The iMac, Mac Mini and Macbook line up got an overhaul. iPadOS will soon be a lot more powerful for multitasking. 2 new generations of Airpods (if Airpods Pro 2 comes out). I think this video needs a revisit next month.

[@TrainToAlaska]

I am still using my MacBook Pro 13 inch from late 2013 and it still works perfectly! Did have to upgrade the storage but otherwise the ram is handling adobe and such like a champ! I bought it when I started my graphic design study and I am still using it in 2020 :)

[@jag92949]

It’s not that crazy of iPad being ranked so high. They’re entry-level Macs in power and specs with a touchscreen and a more simplistic OS.

[@00SNIVY00]

I'm curious how the 2020 updates to these products would change some of these ratings.

[@LeahCanadian]

I agree with just about every one. Especially the iPad and Apple Watch. I am blown away with how amazing both are every day!

[@TonyMacina]

Definitely agree that the iPad is Apple’s best device, it’s the only Apple device that I’ve felt is worth the money and shelled out for the Pro 2018 myself. I’d consider the SE if I wasn’t entrenched in android and just got a Fairphone 3 in February.

[@BG-bq1qp]

Just finished looking the video, and with that comment about the iPads, I remembered that Jobs actually felt that the iPad was his best product.

[@joshuatarkan1079]

Literally the only thing I would change about this list is put the iPhone 11 at b and the iPhone 11 pro at c. you have to remember that people really like iPhones and don't care about specs that much. Also you forgot about the apple magic keyboard for desktop, Apple TV hd, Apple Watch series 3 and the iPhone xr.

[@erickgaray5984]

I have air pods with wireless charging case and honestly the air pods aren’t that bad to daily only problem is the battery life but apart from that it’s incredible to have the airpods

[@thedude9418]

I like the way the Magic Keyboard looks but for literally half the price I bought a Zagg hard case + keyboard with infinite viewing angles and it will never, ever, ever tip over even while using it in bed.

[@peanutbutterpancake1703]

While I don't agree with a number of ratings that you made, I certainly agree with the ipad pro being at the top of the list. While future ARM macbooks are exiting, what would be even better is if more macbook like functionality and app support came to the ipad pro. It already has ARM, and is in a better form for most than a laptop. The future is ARM!

[@kfcbrahmin]

I like how Austin is going all in on his second channel

[@kfcbrahmin]

The main channel has slowed down but this is much more interesting

[@patonwalters1995]

How is the iPad air so low? It's faster than the base and not that much more expensive. Also, it isn't that outdated, it only came out last year.

[@sweetestgravy9880]

The problem is that anyone who isn't completely immersed in the ecosystem wouldn't benefit from features of a lot of their products. For example, if you don't have an iPhone the airpods lose their magic of just working. They're just another pair of Bluetooth earbuds. Another example is the pro display xdr. If you don't have a mac, you lose tons of features and are better off with another monitor. If someone asked me if I should recommend an apple product, I ask them if they are 100% ready to be in the ecosystem. If the answer is anything but yes, I don't recommend it at all.

[@H-O-]

Underrated

[@uthmanbaksh3530]

This is a good tier list but It's only June. A more fair comparison would be in October or December when all the new iPhones and other products get released, because while the iPhone 11/11 Pro are great phones, we are mere months away from the iPhone 12 which will be better in every way, hopefully.

[@joshuakyles]

I don't think the regular Airpods deserve B tier since I know many people who have pairs that last for less than a year. You can spend $20 on wireless earbuds that last longer and sound much better.

[@justinpierce7712]

I feel like Apple should make the 16 inch pro with the Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad and put the speakers near the hinge and make them less small and then it would be better. And maybe add a couple usb type a ports and an SD card slot. I know it would be more like a pc but I feel like it would be a lot better if it was directed to high end video editors and photographers. Along with SOME gamers

[@heartmommyinpa]

And I use a 2015 MacBook Pro 13" Retina (pre-touchbar) and it still runs great
