How the 2024 M4 iPad Pro Improves Procreate | M4 vs Older iPads | Artist Performance Review

[@JimmyLamStudio]

You can get the M4 iPad here, they are starting to go on sale: 2024 13" M4 iPad Pro: amzn.to/3V6onPu 2024 11" M4 iPad Pro: amzn.to/3ULXkHM Apple Pencil Pro: amzn.to/4asL9Fq Using the links do help support me in continuing to make videos like these, much appreciated. I think, in a month from now when my schedule is better, I will try to do a Final Cut Pro review on the M4 iPad Pro if anyone is interested in that.

[@soto9128]

I am interested! Also, have you thought about reviewing the magic drawing pad from XP pen?

[@JimmyLamStudio]

@@soto9128 I’ll consider it. I was actually supposed to test out the galaxy tab S9 FE before the iPads came out but they lost my package so I never ended up having time to do it.

[@gamingvariation1323]

Yes pls

[@tucoerquilenne6765]

I am waiting till later this year to upgrade from my M1 M4. I just need more memory and I want to see if Procreate uses all the new features of the IPad Pencil Pro. The main reasons I would upgrade to the M4 is more memory and the newer features of the IPad Pencil Pro with the barrel role and the new screen. More Ram would be nice to get more layers for Procreate just not sure it's worth that huge price bump to get to 1TB.

my ipad pro coming in on tuesday!! Thank you for the informative video

[@JimmyLamStudio]

Appreciate it! Enjoy your new iPad! It’s a great device 👍🏻

[@80angelcleff]

Honestly the best on point comparison of the differences between older iPad models vs the newest one. Yes even the M1 is still powerful enough to a point that if your style doesn't require huge resolutions along with lots of layers then its not a reason for an upgrade yet, that machine still got your back even from a hobby to a professional work . Now if you are truly devoted into going on a full transition to only iPad pro which is possible (not mac or pc on the side to refine your work even more) the new m4 is beast! but still starting from the m1 they can still get work done.... maybe not that fluid but capable enough.

[@hppersonallanosrepph5068]

hello shanks for video. How much charge does ipad pro 11 m4 consume when drawing for half an hour?

[@soto9128]

Ugh believe me. I would upgrade if I had the funds (not necessarily to the latest m4, but the m1 model); I will have to stick with my little iPad 9th gen until it dies lol.

[@JimmyLamStudio]

If you are in the US, you may be able to find an M1 Air for $399. The value is actually insane for that. I upgraded my brother’s 9th gen to the M1 Air. I think Apple’s trade in gave me $170 which I put toward my M4 iPad Pro and just gave him the money for the Air. Nothing wrong with the 9th gen. $230 difference just seemed reasonable to do.

Worth considering when last date of OS upgrades. Although many still get security updates for many years, they may not get the full OS updates with new features. -- My personal example is the 9.7 iPad. it will not get 13, and it's last security was at 12.5.7. I upgraded back then also because some of my apps no longer supported that OS version.

[@rezidtv]

With the advent of good-quality upscale AIs, it's less important to have a huge canvas - I prefer to have more layers.

[@StorytellingThroughTarot]

What upscaler actually gives quality results??? I’ve been majorly dissatisfied with the ones I’ve tried

[@nekomansa]

Does setting a project to DCI-P3 have an impact on the ram usage/layer limit? If not, is there an option to set the bits-per-channel/color depth and what are the effects?

[@ank_3786]

Best video ever, I am also an artist and I was thinking of buying ipad pro, But Had a lot of doubt in my mind. Thanks to you I mad up my mind. I am gonna invest in this device.

[@LukaS_VisualArt]

Hello thanks for the video. Quick question - what screen protector are you using ? Does is degrade the screen quality ?

[@JimmyLamStudio]

@@LukaS_VisualArt I talk about it in this video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3uwZqmtrsmagdUsi=qzJ3HHUoojQ4S7ru

[@Feddefar]

Im notice that in m4 13 inch when using procreate ipad is hot on center after 5-10 min idk maybe it because it new chip and it still not much optimized for new chip? Im read in reedit many ppl have that problem 💀 But in my air 4 is all okay no hot on center

[@scp_art]

Have you tried Art Studio Pro for more layers on larger canvas size .

[@JimmyLamStudio]

No, I only use procreate.

[@vanroid8339]

i just got mine around a month ago and when i finally got my apple pencil i decided to draw and my battery drain really fast (it take around 2 min for 1% battery) i searched around and someone suggested to restart the ipad and it does help but for some reason its back to its 2 min 1% drain (this is after like a week or so after restarting it- and also when it was "fixed" it takes around 5 min for 1% to drain)- idk what i did wrong. turned of the background apps thing and i set auto brightness and im not opening any other apps when drawing 😭 i hope they somehow fix this on the next os this is my first ipad but ive heard theres times os update helps with battery life problem

[@stephenfiore9960]

..:Did you call Apple tech support?? Vanroid

[@hosiyarclassroom]

Please tell layer count of ipad air 5

[@JimmyLamStudio]

It would be the same. They both have 8gb of ram.

[@experiencelifelittleone]

could you do a review on elecom paperlike screen protector? The smooth one.

[@radelk]

should i be worried about burn in issues with ipad pro's oled screen?

[@JimmyLamStudio]

It’s too early to tell but burn in typically has been less of an issue on smaller screens like this and phones nowadays

[@eljuli1003]

Very informative. Thanks.

[@mistereffo]

no protective paper on the ipad? THANKS

[@JimmyLamStudio]

I used a removable one for some portions of the video but just ended up using a tempered glass one for 95% of the video.

[@ksawi97]

Nice comparison!

[@s_mehmi28]

i use an m2 pro but i really like the new pencil, but i can’t justify a new ipad just to use the pencil🥲

[@JimmyLamStudio]

I think I am more sold on OLED at this point. I dont think there's gonna be much fomo if you already developed an efficient way to draw with what you have though.
