Do you REALLY need an iPad or Macbook?

[@sidsrao8624]

Thank you so much for your motivation for physics Archer. If you’d asked me about physics a few months ago I would have said that I couldn’t care less but now since I followed your advice about correlating the subject to real life I have significantly improved and now I can feel it. Thanks so much for your r Tech plus study advice too.

[@ArcherNewton]

that’s awesome to hear! 😊

I am also a huge fan of the Apple ecosystem because the feature that I enjoy the most is synchronisation that can transfer my things, including calendar events, reminders, notes, Safari favourites and reading lists, and iCloud files, between my devices automatically and seamlessly, as well as the amazing AirDrop feature. As a busy Computer Science senior high student studying Cambridge International AS and A Level, productivity plays a pivotal role throughout my study journey. I have to use a laptop (Intel chip, as some outdated Windows applications required in the CS courses do not support macOS and Apple chips) instead of an iPad because I need to do programming and coding that are not supported on an iPad. My 13-inch MacBook Pro is quite portable as it is as similar as the size of an A4 paper. Also, I am quite professional since I usually make deep research into computers.

Thanks Ken! Hope your studies are going well :)

Great video again, thank you. I have a mackbook air and soon buying an iPad 😌 Also, I'm trying so hard to learn how to roll the pen (4:58) it's just so professional.

[@ArcherNewton]

Thanks Eevet! I don't even realise I'm doing it sometimes haha :)

[@HeyHancho]

Thank you for this Archer! More informative, honest and insights than other tech channels!

[@kimmikimsan9065]

I have the iPad 12 and most people are actually impressed by the Apple Pencil, goodnotes, notion, mindmaps and split screen for working efficiently.

[@ArcherNewton]

yep it’s really good for portability and mindmapping!

[@sohamgawande6100]

Archer plz bring back the study related vids waiting for them🤞

[@ArcherNewton]

yesss got some big videos planned just need to record them! :)

[@neerajyarlagadda4573]

This is a very helpful video Archer. Thank you very much!

[@ArcherNewton]

Glad to here! Thank you :)

[@RexZ412]

[@ArcherNewton]

thanks Rex!!

[@ArcherNewton]

yeppp second monitor is really helpful to boost productivity :)

Mind mapping video pls :)

i'm working on it :)

I don't know if Apple's ecosystem is advantaged so much as just most known about. Eg. MS has a cloud clipboard between Windows and SwiftKey and Edge has a convenient Drop feature (which is just a frontend for OneDrive, mind you). The bigger thing for especially freeform notetaking IMO is just app availability. On Windows+Android your options are more or less OneNote and Samsung Notes which aren't bad, but if they don't feel right you're more or less out of options, while on Apple you lose Samsung but gain like 4 other good options. And for laptops there's of course the battery life angle where Windows laptops just get murdered.

Is Justin Sung your brother?

[@ArcherNewton]

ahahhaah nah :)

[@MemeDude100]

hey archer what are some alternatives to anki flash cards that would use active recall and also spaced repetition? Also, when's the mind mapping video coming out????

[@edimarjunior572]

Man, I saw that you are a medical student and you use several monitors in your setup, do you think they help in the study/comfort? Is it worth the expense on a 4K one?

[@lukebanwell264]

Why would you need a 4K monitor for studying ahaha 1080p will do you more then fine

[@ArcherNewton]

I don't think you need a 4K one but having a second monitor is very very useful and definitely worth it :)

@@ArcherNewton Thank you, which model is your benq?

[@lukebanwell264]

@@edimarjunior572 lol trust me 4K is expensive and it's not going to improve your experience that much compared to getting a 1080p monitor with a higher refresh rate, a higher refresh rate will give you a way smoother experience then using 4K for the sole purpose of text sharpness ahaha

[@keshavpande5583]

mindmap vid?

soon hopefully!
