iPad Pro vs iPad Air: Why You Might Be Wasting Money

[@jerrymoreno1714]

“Lighter on the wallet.” Great way to interpret Air in iPad Air. iPad Pro user myself but iPad Air can genuinely fulfill a lot of next tier users with productivity needs.

[@PLANETWATERMELON]

My thing is that the Pro keyboard is PRO, the 120 refresh display w/P3 color etc is PRO, the better back camera for scanning documents is PRO, the faster usb-c thunderbolt is PRO. BUT and it's a big BUT Face ID in my opinion is NOT a PRO feature. It's a nice feature and makes an iPad more enjoyable to use, but it is not a PRO feature and should be on all the iPads by this point. It does not make doing anything PRO. Anyway that is my thoughts.

[@7heAteles]

Much rather have finger print reader if I had a choice

[@messicomps344]

Pro is just a marketing term stop being fooled by it

[@PLANETWATERMELON]

@@7heAteles I have had both and Face ID for me is much better. I guess if you hold the iPad in your hand the whole time then sure they would be equal kinda. But having the iPad on the keyboard it’s a bit annoying having to reach for the power button.

[@PLANETWATERMELON]

@@messicomps344 totally agree. That’s why I think the iPad Air should have Face ID because I don’t believe that’s a PRO feature. The base iPad 10 should have Touch ID, the Air should have Face ID and the PRO should have both.

[@edd9581]

With a normal iPad Air and a good app with a good algorithm scanning documents does not make a difference…. Or you could scan them with the phone which has a even better camera

[@snuggles03]

thanks for the great video, I’ve used an iPad Pro M1 for about 18 months, and I’ve given it away and purchased the new iPad Air 13 inch, and you’re right I do miss facial recognition but I can still do everything on the air that I used to do on the pro

[@Adamtendo_player_1]

For the longest time I was gonna get an M2 iPad Air but what waved me towards the M4 iPad Pro was the display and also the fact that I’ve never experienced an iPad before and I’ve decided I’m going to get the 13 inch iPad Pro because I like big screens.

[@OnTheComeUp82]

I feel a lot of content creators only speak to “today’s” situation and not the future. In my case, I upgraded from the 1st gen to the M4 after 8 years, which is a big jump. If your need/usage of the iPad allowes for an extended usage period, that extra money up front will be valid and technology improves over time. Just my opinion but definitely think you should speak to compatibility investment.

[@stmz7768]

Professional photographer / videographer here and I choose the air because if I want to be productive I will use my m3 max 16 inch iPad Pro is certainly useful for creative but I can’t edit photos and videos professionally like I would do on my MacBook Pro 16

[@Yentl-gx2cm]

But is the iPad air good enough for non professional use of photoshop?

[@hms350]

Really good production. Agree the Air is cost effective and really good purchase if on a budget. My wife has M4 pro and display amazing. Lowest may not be best vale for all. If you are going to use it daily for 3 years and not on budget, I think Pro is amazing and better value. For some buying the Air is a sunk cost and not good value. Just my thoughts. I have M1 Pro 12.9 and super happy.

[@thisISyouish]

Ill take the ipad pro 11 for battery life and sweet spot for portability.

[@MarcoBeSomething]

Great video, the iPad is my floater device acting in place of my iPhone or MacBook so the Air is enough for me, my only gripe is it doesn’t get the extra set of speakers and Face ID. I think that those features should be available for both models.

[@Jimmyfly215]

Easy decision. Keep my M2 iPad Pro 12.9

[@TheKurtLyon]

Thanks Terren, always appreciate your thoughts.

[@TerrenRule]

What iPad would you get? The iPad Pro or iPad Air?

[@sameersheriff7078]

Ipad pro for sure especially for that 120hz !! once ur used to it there no way going back !!

[@karlleiserbach1411]

I have m1 iPad Pro 12.9“ I say never again a ipad. Surface Pro does so much more like gaming

[@Adamtendo_player_1]

I’ve already made my decision on getting the iPad Pro, which is arriving on Monday and I also bought the magic keyboard for it as well.

[@Adamtendo_player_1]

@@karlleiserbach1411 surface pro runs windows so it’s already a market against it and for gaming you’re having a laugh if you think surface pro comes close to the iPad in gaming particularly the iPad Pro. M4 M4 blows your surface pro out of the water when it comes to power even with the restrictions of iPadOS, which kills the bloated Seth pool that is windows.

Which one is better for note taking? because I am a student and I confused between ipad pro m2 11 inch or ipad air 6 11 inch Do you think which one is faster for handwriting because this is most important for me?

Same doubt what did u do ??

The air as it’s got a polycarbonate like plastic screen vs. glass, which is a terrible writing surface.

[@ahmadslemany2637]

​@@jamesshriver4822 In your opinion the pro is better right?

[@joereardon6464]

Another reason besides better display for the pro they also have way better speakers

[@alfredoaraujo9294]

If you sre gettong an m2 air couldnt it be better to get a refurbished m2 pro get all the nice ti haves for almost the same price 120 hz mini led etc.

[@Adrian-qd4ck]

You know, this video made me realize I do not need an ipad LOL. I'm about to finish college next year. I'm just gonna buy a notebook.

[@fredlesteros7668]

Good review 👌

[@jamesshriver4822]

It depends, how long you'll keep it. A new air will get updates for 5 years the older M1 pro only a couple (2) more years!!!!! That means some apps will begin to stop working!

[@Treborray]

what software do you edit with ?

[@chisomagbara6780]

As a “regular user” I got the iPad Pro for 3 reasons: weight, OLED display, and ProMotion. Once u have promotion, it’s hard to go back. Which is why I still get the pro iPhone. All the other stuff within the iPad Pro is nice to have.

Basically the air is better and the new pro is a waste of money.

no 60hz in 2024 !!!

[@Adamtendo_player_1]

Don’t be silly I think people should be given choice not everyone cares about 120 Hz people like you that say no 60 hours and 2024 want to takeaway choice for consumers.
