M4 iPad Pro vs M3 MacBook Pro - Don't Make a Mistake!

[@GregsGadgets]

iPad Pro or MacBook Pro which one are you choosing? 👀

[@Aviation_tech441]

macbook pro for me I've seen so many reviews about it and haven't felt like buying it at all.

[@MichaelEMaul]

Hey man just discovered your channel. Love it and subbed. Anyway I just picked up the M4 Pro yesterday and have no regrets. 🎉

[@scrollinYT]

I upgraded my 2019 MacBook Pro to a 13" m4 iPad it is drastically better

[@patrickmanley6119]

Don’t be fooled!!!!

[@bryanbuff]

Why I choose the iPad Pro over the MacBook Pro: Hardware: 1. Versatility. The ability to interact with the device in many ways. In “Laptop Mode” with the Magic Keyboard you can go from using your fingers, Pencil, trackpad, and keyboard all seamlessly. Or in “Clipboard Mode” with just the tablet and pencil/touch for drawing, reading, watching, showing. There are so many ways to hold/use the device vs the MacBook Pro where it’s just the trackpad and keyboard that is permanently fixed. 2. Thinner and lighter. 3. FaceID (for now this is a differentiator). I find FaceID faster and easier to use than TouchID. 4. OLED (for now). 5. Ability to charge from power bank, smaller adapters. 6. Camera on back for scanning documents, or snapping a quick environmental photo (can also do so discreetly). Software: 1. Apps open and close instantly. Lightning fast to swipe and switch apps. I actually find this preferably vs having 7 app windows on the same desktop. 2. Slide Over is very handy (calculator, address book, ChatGPT, Notes). I use the calculator a lot for work, so it’s great to be able to swipe from the right and do a calculation and then swipe it away. On the Mac, I’d have to open and close it or keep it somewhere on the screen. It’s also quicker/easier to tap the numbers on the calculator (touchscreen) on the iPad. 3. Drag and Drop. I use this a lot, especially grabbing multiple items and then dropping them elsewhere. I like being able to touch an item or several items, and then swipe with my other hand to open another window or app and then drop the items in there. This doesn’t work the same way on the Mac. 4. Apps like GarageBand, DJ, Notes, FreeForm, LumaFusion, etc. are much more enjoyable with the touch interface. 5. Simplicity - I don’t need more complex desktop apps or deep menus. I am able to run my business using Zoom, iWork apps, and web-based software. For my hobbies, I use GarageBand, LumaFusion, Lightroom, etc. I am able to do everything on the iPad Pro. 6. There are some apps that don’t exist for the Mac that I use (Arlo, Insta, KZbin, games, etc.) 7. I like the ability to alternate between simple multi-tasking (split screen and slide over) and Stage Manager 8. More secure (no executable files) 9. Continuity between iPad and iPhone. They operate very much the same way and most of the apps are universal, so it’s easier to go back and forth between an iPhone and iPad than it is between an iPhone and a Mac. GarageBand is a good example. 10. Easier to replace (and set up).

[@GregsGadgets]

All valid reasons for picking an iPad Pro.

[@MrBojangles8482]

I have a MacBook Pro and an iPad Air. I work with Microsoft Office and Canva (text and graphics) daily. I use the Mac and my iPhone 90% of the time. Even the newest iPad Pro cannot make up for its limited and uncomfortable OS.

[@bovro7636]

Would you recommend it for a student as their only device?

[@bryanbuff]

@@bovro7636 Entirely depends on what you need. If I could go back to college in 1999 and replace my 11 pound Dell laptop with the iPad Pro, I would lol. I’m not sure how college classes work these days and what they require, but if it’s mainly for note taking, reading, researching, typing papers, and creating presentations, it’s an ideal device. I’d ask your school what the requirements are before deciding.

[@JDFloyd]

I am a firm believer in "Use Cases". I have a use case for both the iPad Pro, and the MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air. I travel extensively for work, so in my laptop bag is both a 12.9" iPad Pro M1, and a MacBook Air 13" M1. During my average 2-week business trips, I use both for separate, and specific reasons.

[@jishnudesarkar]

What are the use cases?

[@ReneRivas]

I have both.... And even though I love my iPad, I prefer the MacBook since you can do so much more with it. The iPad for me is a multimedia device that still to this day, cannot be used as a full time computer.

[@gold333]

I've seen performance vs form factor for the past 40 years. The iPad M4 is the first time in 40 years I've been blown away as if staring at magic. How can you have the single fastest CPU in your entire lineup of devices, in the thinnest all in 1 device, with the best screen on any device in history? It just doesn't make any GD sense. M4 blows things like i9's out of the water, giant desktops with 4 inch fans on 3 sides. The iPad M4 really is the first time i've been utterly blown away.

[@sigiligus]

If you’ve seen what iPadOS 17 can do on a 2018 iPad Pro, you’ve seen what it can do on a 2024 iPad Pro. Doesn’t matter if the screen has a trillion Hz and gets as bright as a supernova, doesn’t matter if the chip is fast enough to simulate the brain of God himself, doesn’t matter if it’s a single atom thick. It does the exact same thing as the old one but a bit faster and looks better doing it.

[@Bumble-d1e]

Thank you so much! If it ran the full versions would you opt for an iPad instead even if iPadOS was mostly unchanged?

[@metaversebuilding6188]

For me, the macOS environment isn't worth it to switch from an iPad. The iPadOS with M4 COOKS macOS (and leaves other OS like Windows so far behind it's not worth thinking about). I LOVE my iPad and use it for almost every computing task I have. I mostly edit TV broadcasts and livestreams on it, and it encodes videos faster than my MacBook Pro. I'd say unless you're a software engineer and can't script/code in the iPadOS environment, having an iPad Pro is more valuable than a MacBook Pro.

[@Lee.Freeman]

And the Macbook "Pro" is woefully behind hardware snd software wise in some key areas (eg: cannot be used for photography, videography or even document scanning. ☕️😎🦘

[@Briwen2007]

I have the 14” M3 MBP and M2 IPad Pro. Both great devices. Took a look at 13” M4 IPad Pro at Apple and it’s really cool. I do a lot Google suite stuff, research, taking notes, some gaming, enjoying art apps iPad has to offer etc….been debating to turn in both devices for just the M4 IPad Pro. However the battery life on iPad is worse than pro as a teacher going for masters program.

I’m in the exact same boat as you, except I sold my MacBook and still have my M2 iPad Pro. Have a great deal currently lined up for the iPad but I don’t know if I should just buy a 14 inch MacBook Pro or wait until the m4 MacBook Pro comes out and buy that and keep my m2 iPad. I dont know and its currently bugging me

[@andrewmcneil1931]

I currently have the M3 MBP, with the studio display. I'll be getting the M4 iPad Pro for work as teacher/sheet music etc. The MacBook still has its pride of place though, I thought about reverting back to desktop solution, but the MacBook does the job with the portability option. It's just whether all of this is overkill or not, expensive is a given!

[@VideoDrone11]

In many ways, you’re comparing apples to oranges. (No punn intended.) That said, each device and its OS is good for certain things. If I’m editing a “quick and dirty” video, my iPad and Final Cut for iPadOS works just fine. But if I’m editing something more complex, I’m going for Final Cut on my Mac. In my opinion, there is no bad “device”. It just depends on what you’re doing.

I was debating this same thing recently after giving my M1 Air to my daughter for college. I thought maybe I can do all my basic things on a 13” iPad with magic keyboard but found a gently used M3 pro (space black) for $1440.

[@SunnyWinterz]

Great video! More reviews should be like this rather than reeling off specs, and good comedy too. Already in-depth, but would have loved to see secondary monitor capabilities as well. Currently I have a Mac Mini and purchased an iPad Pro to continue work from my Mac portably (primarily Affinity apps and frequent file management), but the iPadOS limitations and iPad versions of apps are so frustrating, slow and limited, while my M1 Mac Mini is continuously maxing its 8GB RAM and using 30GB of swap resulting in so much slowness. For example, when my contractors send me a PDF via a particular app, I cannot even download it to my iPad.... I actually have to boot up my Mac Mini, download it, add to iCloud, then go back to my iPad. So many dumb things like this. I'm thinking of just selling the Mac Mini and iPad Pro and getting an M3 MacBook Pro to replace both instead, hooked up to a monitor at home, while still easy to continue the same workflows when portable. It would be great however if they released a MacBook with a touchscreen and pencil support. The new Surface laptops actually peaked my interest with the touchscreen and detachable keyboard, but I can't stand Windows.

[@Eftyhis_Vavagiakis]

Either Apple should create an iPad-like MacBook or just an iPad with a macOS that would turn into iPadOS whenever you detach the keyboard! iPad hardware is the future but I can’t find the reason to pay for the Pro with such a limiting software…

[@MarbsMusic]

After using mine for over a week, trying to do things I would normally do on my MBP, I VERY impressed with the magic keyboard compared to the previous one. Given I had the 11" before and that was part of the issue. As I build a lot of custom boards I'm not a huge fan of low profile keyboard but can happy type on either my MBP or this new MagicKeyboard for hours without issue. Although I'm always happy to get back to my heavy tactile switches when I can. Keep up all the great content Greg, definitely enjoying all of it!

[@dbtech4562]

The new iPad makes me want to just wait until the MacBook Pro M4 comes out.

[@Bambotb]

[@AnonN-sr6uu]

One correction: it’s not double the battery. I did a real world test, the MacBook Pro had 1 more hour of battery life. Apple understates the iPads battery for whatever reason.

[@MultiAyler]

I got the iPad Pro, cause I already have a Mac mini for any of my macOS needs. The portability and form factor of the iPad was a big factor as was that new display.

[@GregsGadgets]

That's a nice setup.

[@uofmtigertech1316]

I have the same setup and updated to the new iPad Pro. I do have a 2016 MBP laying around, with no intention to update, but the iPad is just a better portable device because of the ability to use it with and without a keyboard and for pencil input. So it's not only about how much it weighs, but the convertible nature of the iPad. I do most of my real work on a Windows computer supplied by my job, like the vast majority of people, but the Macs and iPads fill different roles for my side hustles and hobbies. This would have been a much different video if he asked what worked best as a convertible tablet.

Am not a gamer, but there are more games on the iPad with the current push for mobile hence that’s another factor making me want to get an iPad Pro for the screen and the port so I can plug in a drive or a hub.

What are your thoughts on iPad Pro 13" vs 11"? Struggling to decide what to get to compliment my 16" MBP. Want it as a more portable option for travel compared to my 16" MBP. It is not a laptop replacement too me, but I would do video and photo editting on it occasionally. At home it would be for watching content and probably used as a secondary editing screen via Sidecar. I've leaned towards 13", but the portability and ease of use of the 11" has me second guessing. If I want to watch content lying in bed, the 13" would likely be too big. The 11" is so much more portable and discreet, but I really like the screensize of the 13"

[@TheAndersonOBrien]

If you plan on keeping your Macbook and using the iPad as a secondary device, I would highly recommend just getting the 11 inch iPad Pro. That’s coming from someone who owned a 16inch MacBook and a 12.9 inch iPad Pro together.

for me, durability is something important, new iPad is thin like ridiculous thin, the previous iPad pro was already very thin, no one asked for it and wasn't really something they needed to do, when a product is that thin mostly will overheat under some circumstances and depending where you using your device, if using it in a room with AC, then probably will do fine, but come to the caribbean with that ridiculous thin device and tell me 6 months later how you doing with your everyday life with it, on the other hand Macbook Pro is built like a little tank, ready to be used without fear of putting it in a backpack and having the risk to bend the thing with just real life everyday circumstances, I don't need that, Apple decided to give back the thickness to Macbook Pro, and everyone agreed that was the best decision, for better ventilation, better durability, more ports, more rigidity to the whole chasis which is very needed for all portable devices that are supposed to be on the go on backpacks moving from one place to another all the time, trying to make every device thinner and thinner is the worst decision they are making, and there are rumors iphone 16 will be the same a ridiculous thin device, if they do that, I won't go for it, not for me, ...I am not saying that I want devices thick as bricks, no, but premium and expensive devices like these, need best of both worlds, good design and good durability, I don't want my devices to be thinner and thinner all the time, they have already reached that goal.

I have m1 imac and I was planing to buy a MacBook Pro, than I decided to buy ipad. I thought when I need vscode, python, terminal… i can still use my m1 imac. But for daily things watching youtube and so I can enjoy the ipad. Instead of phone. I still don’t know how the final cut experience in this ipad but i have the feeling they made this ipad good to make us subscribe to final cut instead of paying one time. The screen also looks amazing.

How would this comparison do with the MacBook Air 13.6” M3? Thinner, lighter, than the 14” MacBook Pro. Most of the comparisons are about the same.

[@wesiboyy]

I have the m4 iPad Pro here 13inch and I don’t need any app or software so im keeping it. Later down the line when the MacBook Pro gets lighter and thinner because it will get the oled technology eventually I will get that one.

[@alanc6416]

IMO the only thing holding back the iPad Pro is the software, because that’s one area that cannot be rectified using aftermarket gear, such as external IO ports and battery. But I think that’s improving with the full featured apps and IO tailed for the iPad and Apple Pencil. It will probably be another few years when I will choose an iPad over my MacBook, but I’m looking forward to that day. Stage manager is pretty garbage at the moment, the Mac is a much better multitasking machine, and if the iPad can make a better way of external monitor (or even dual monitor) support, that could be a deciding factor for me. It would be really awesome if Apple release an iPad mini Pro that supports external monitor like MacBook, that would be awesome. But that’s probably out of the question. 25:41 and yes that’s most people who need a MacBook to begin with, like myself, ie i can’t live without a Mac, but can certainly live without an iPad. But my wife has never owned a Mac and really doesn’t need it (except when she does and uses my MacBook few times a year😂😂😂😂)

[@Crim222]

Speaking of battery ;ofe, I wish Apple would have kept the pr3evious iPad thickness and insted increased the battery. Also, I'm vkind of surprised they didn't put a battery in the keyboard to sort of charge the ipad while in use. It would have been a good way to give the keyboard part some weight.

[@zaryl2k]

i am still fine with my ipad pro 12.9 M1 5G. now if only apple put the 5G esim capability in macbooks, that would be a game changer. and i might consider to shift to macbooks after that. you really think that public wifis on starbucks or airports are truly secure? think again

[@usnightm4re]

I actually regret getting the space black MacBook pro, that silver one looks so slick, my next MacBook will be silver for sure 👌

[@aziztameryazilitas]

What is the name of movie at 14:50 ??

[@sobeso]

What this should show is that the Macbook if they improve certain things about the device during the next chip line up then it will have a price increase or apple may opt to keep the price the same by not upgrading the screen etc

[@6ftCowgirl]

After watching and reading alllllll comments, I’m bouta buy me the MacBook Pro!!! Thank yallllllll! I don’t know any of all, but I love all y’all!!!

[@GregsGadgets]

Hope you enjoy it! Check Amazon (link in description) or bestbuy. I think they both have a sale on the MacBook Pro currently.

[@LucienDupont]

You can double tap the spacebar to unlock the iPad and go to the Home Screen!?!? Is that a setting somewhere, mine does not do that..

[@patrickcallahan2885]

For me, I think that the iPad Pro is probably the best device for ur average consumer if it weren’t for the high price. It is enough computer for most folks who don’t create videos for a living. Plus with the pencil and keyboard it offers more flexibility and functions. But I digress, I have an M1 iPad Pro 11”, and a M2 MacBook Air 13” that I use at work in an office environment.

[@adamterry550]

I rely on my 13 inch M4 pro for everything. Work and play. As an artist, all of my illustration/animation work is a breeze on iPads. With the Magic Keyboard, it’s my tablet and laptop. I’m not doing any work that requires my MacBook Pro…and seeing as how my MBP is a 2015 model, the iPad Pro outclasses it anyway. I guess what I’m saying is that the new M4 pros in combination with the new magic keyboards, has been the first all in one tablet/laptop that I’ve truly felt is a viable option. iPads will never MacBooks…but the capability of the tasks they were designed for is truly starting to shine IMO. That being said…that tandem oled screen is a feast for the eyes…pornhu…I mean KZbin and Netflix has never looked this good

[@edmundoa1935]

I’m not a pro (no need for MBP), but I enjoy tremendously having a 16” Macbook Pro at home and an iPad Pro 11 for traveling, going outside or using at home as a TABLET. To me, still very different products.

[@BaguaDude]

You should compare them running a heavy logic-pro session.

[@sklynexd]

The ONLY laptop is obviously the macbook.

[@metaversebuilding6188]

For me, the macOS environment isn't worth it to switch from an iPad. The iPadOS with M4 COOKS macOS (and leaves other OS like Windows so far behind it's not worth thinking about). I LOVE my iPad and use it for almost every computing task I have. I mostly edit TV broadcasts and livestreams on it, and it encodes videos faster than my MacBook Pro. I'd say unless you're a software engineer and can't script/code in the iPadOS environment, having an iPad Pro is more valuable than a MacBook Pro.

[@nategerwitz7717]

Greg, When talking about price, you have to consider that getting an iPad Pro for a laptop replacement (which is the only justifiable reason for spending that much on a tablet), you are getting 2 devices in one. You’re paying for both a laptop and a tablet. So to say the MacBook wins In that category is misleading. All you get with a MacBook is a laptop. You get 2 devices in the iPad Pro.

[@Thelegoverse2]

You can get a sensor for Mac to make touch screen

[@fredgoodyer4907]

25:41 Greg trauma bonding with the more depressed members of his audience. We are not alone

[@GregsGadgets]

You are never alone

[@Alikadem.]

Is that kirustena at the back 😂😂

[@marcodimario9918]

None of both can actually exclude the other. Each one is a companion for the other. No one can win. Because Apple must sell both. And I don't think this is a problem.
