iPad 8 (2020) | SHOULD THIS BE Your First iPad?

[@TechGearTalk]

⭐️ Buy the ipad 8 32GB: geni.us/VEgzlHT (affiliate) ⭐️ Buy the ipad 8 128GB: geni.us/pntOH8 (affiliate) What's up everyone?! I hope this first look at the iPad 8 was helpful. Do you think this is a good option for someone looking to buy their first iPad? Would love to know what you think. Is this an iPad you’d consider getting or are you waiting for the iPad Air 4 or maybe stepping all the way up to the iPad Pro.

[@mathyougriffthis1085]

I've been thinking about getting one just for drawing (for obvious reasons). And now suddenly for work, we're switching to Apple and I will be getting a new MacBook pro. In your opinion, is it worth getting this to learn apple devices, travel, and draw on? (I'm aware of accessories upcharge which I loath) lol, thanks in advance

[@ciaradiam0nd]

I’m an artist and I got this iPad to draw. I’m so happy I did and didn’t waste money on the pro. Sure there are benefits to the pro but this iPad is excellent and gets the job done just the same. A great value!!!!

My first ipad was the iPad 2nd generation 16 gb. I still use it until august this year. I upgraded to iPad Air 3. Worth it. If iPad 8 is your first ipad then people should take good care of it. The specs are powerful and could easily last for years.

[@TechGearTalk]

Totally agree Jose!

I bought the iPad 8th gen 1 month after the release, and I’m still using it to this day and 2022 and there are no problems at all now!

[@focalpoint._]

For someone who has an iPad Air Gen 1 with 16 gigs of storage. This iPad is a fucking lifesaver. I don’t know what people are talking about how you should get the 128 gigs of storage if you want to play games, I’ve got Terraria, Stardew, Monument Valley 2, Sky: Children of Light, even Roblox on this thing. 32 gigs is more than enough for me. Thank you Tim Cook for making an affordable iPad for once.

For people having low budget and want ipad for only studies..they can use android phone storage to keep big files and i think 32 gb is enough if you do only studies and keep 1 or 2 games. I think it's a good choice.

[@TechGearTalk]

Nah. 32 GB at this price is still insulting. 64 GB would be something decent, but the configuration Apple chose for this base model feels insufficient in my opinion.

Is 32 gb variant enough for notes taking for students? I am thinking to buy it please make more videos so it can help me.

[@TechGearTalk]

It should work for a while for notes (depends on whether you're adding photos, etc.). If you want to be safe, the 128 is 4x the storage at a 30% increase in price. Hope this was helpful. Thanks for being part of the channel!

[@purvangdesai2385]

Can you make video on iCloud storage

[@lorenschwiderski]

Note take up little space. Large images, as in photos, could chew-up data space. But yes, in general taking notes uses little space, so 32GB is more than plenty for note taking.

[@purvangdesai2385]

@@lorenschwiderski Thanks for advice 🙂🙂🤗

[@lorenschwiderski]

@@purvangdesai2385 If we are talking text files, it would take an eternity to read 1 to 10GB of text, so don't be concerned. As for backing up, in USA iCloud is 99 cents for 50GB per month, whatever it figures out to elsewhere can be found by search for iCloud pricing. As for text, if you use 1 to 2GB of space, I would be surprised - 5GB is free and you should have 1 to 3 free for backing up. The base models are sold at discount during holidays. Have fun! -Loren
