Funny that power adapter are still shipped with iPads although "this has a significant impact on the environment"

[@jsteezus]

because the box has to be big enough for the iPad anyway. The environment line was just a distraction apple and other phone manufactures use. For a product the size of an iPhone, by removing the power adapter they can significantly reduce the size of the box and thus fit more of them per container ship/transport more weight in the same space. With current freight prices they are saving a fortune and is why other companies quickly followed even if they were hold outs up until 1-2 years ago. In a product the size of an iPad, removing the power brick does not provide a similar space saving opportunity.

1:48 - a family member has a rock solid one, but for me, i've had to replace ipads twice now and it still has issues, there's definitely a build quality issue with their initial run. first one had sparks flying out the battery charge port (static discharge maybe? idk), 2nd and 3rd ones have a creaking issue where if you twist or press it with slight pressure on the back, some part of it makes sounds and wobbles from the back chassis. this 3rd one literally has the battery see-saw back and forth from pressure on the back, probably due to the removable battery strips instead of glue. since no one is buying the initial first run (because the last gen is going on huge discounted sales) they're still having issues 3-4 months later, even with the replacement units.

So I am using that as a tablet for my 5 year old son and got this 9th gen version. MUCH faster, a little slimmer, smaller bezels, all around a leap forward. Plus, for the price that’s about $130-$150 cheaper than a current new model this is a nice deal. I look forward to the M-series CPUs coming into iPads which will really help future proof these tablets better but these latest CPUs are pretty strong and should do better to last several years with no compromises.

The iPad has more potential than the Mac for the average consumer who is currently served by the MacBook Air. Apple is limiting that potential, so as consumers, we have a right to call for Apple to change course and give the iPad its due

[@RunForPeace-hk1cu]

@@Gilamath. apple will never make an iPad run MacOS There are technical reasons why apple is staying away from it aside from conspiracy theory that apple is trying to milk money from you. Apple will be happy to cannibalize their own product if they can innovate and disrupt the industry. Making an iPad run MacOS isn’t one of them. It’s a step backwards. You’ll just get an inferior desktop experience with MacOS on iPad. Every single implementation have experienced that this far. There’s only so much your thumbs can do to manipulate small desktop gui elements. It’s not suited for tablet. Apple has a long term plan like they did when they revealed M1. It would be foolish to think they are giving out M1 iPad Air just because they could.

[@Oscar_Myk]

@@RunForPeace-hk1cu an inferior desktop experience is better than no desktop experience. I mean, when I'm using desktop mode on my Surface Pro 99% of the time it's got at least the keyboard and trackpad plugged in, if not a mouse as well. If you've got an air or pro with a magic keyboard sitting on your desk there is no valid reason why that device shouldn't be able to run Mac OS.

[@Gilamath.]

@@RunForPeace-hk1cu all due respect friend, but… huh? Who said MacOS? MacOS is not the goal here. We already have a phenomenal MacOS M1 device. Several, in fact. I want an M1 iPad Air or iPad Pro that fully utilizes the hardware in a sensible manner. MacOS is not that, as you spent lot of time explaining sensibly, albeit in response to a point I didn’t make Right now, the M1 is simply better in a laptop. It yields better battery life, better real-world performance, and more flexibility in use case. I could understand if Apple wanted to dial down the performance of the iPad M1 to make it a better fit for portability. But they haven’t. They haven’t put in the work to make these two revolutionary advances in computing fit together correctly. And the main hinderance to that is the current state of iPadOS Maybe they need to split iPadOS into a consumer-grade and a pro-grade OS, maybe they need to discontinue support for the old, underpowered iPads, maybe they just need to work on cleaning up the back end. But for sure they need to do something if they want to pull the potential out of these devices

We can’t sadly, the m1 Mac’s boot loader is open but sadly isn’t on the iPad

Got to say, I think the unboxing channel should have unboxed it IMO
