M1 iPad Pro (2021) - First 12 Things To Do!

What was the first app you installed after getting your M1 iPad Pro?

[@August2023]

I installed Procreate at first! Lol

I’m a Tattoo artist and this iPad is an absolute dream for work. Procreate and the whole device makes things much easier. Its crazy expensive with the pencil and everything but totaly worth it :)

[@gsalome9671]

Same here🙌

[@ronniewayne7672]

I have the new iPad Pro 2021 and on your video it looks different it doesn’t give me the option to pick more it’s just a list so I’m confused

[@TBauer.design]

yeah it’s expensive when you first buy it. But as you say totaly worth it right from the beginning. Also if you imagine how long and often you will use it. And things getting easier with it.

[@rnmetz4]

Please try using your thumb, index, and middle fingers for the 3-finger gestures. It’s supposed to feel like you’re “picking up” the words to copy them, and then placing them back down when you paste.

Third-ed! Combo touch keyboard finishes the device off perfectly and is way better than Magic Keyboard imo

[@sarahlouie5572]

Brandon, thank you so much for this video. I am a newish owner of an iPad Pro 12.9 and still getting use to the different things possible with it. You helped me discover some great shortcuts. I just need more information on hooking up an external storage. I like the ease of how you used yours. Right now I use a Travel Router so I can use my external drive with my various Apple product. Thanks again.

[@DelicateDragons]

This was so highly useful, every iPad should have a guide like this!

[@Encyledus]

Also I’d like to note I have the Logitech folio keyboard which is cheaper than the magic keyboard but does everything just as fine. Backlit keyboard, trackpad, and it works really well.

[@derlinesimilien786]

Yup! I just got my IPad Pro 12.9 and the Logitech keyboard is amazing

Thank you for being so positive on the iPad still. So many annoying KZbinrs claiming they are returning them (but we know they really won’t) cause of a software update that will get better overtime.

I know right and they seem to be mad over the weirdest things. But I mean, it's their opinion

[@kylitrixgames4980]

I'm also a student, been using iPad ever since the first ipad ever, always use it at home and now bought the iPad Air M1 for university and home at the same time (running Genshin impact at 120fps lol, this thing is a beast). I recomment the logitech combo touch case, instead of the magic keyboard. Still is expensive, but is better in every way!

@@abdullahikram4001 why do you even ask, Its literally a pc with mobile OS, shredding high tier games at 120fps max settings, while being compatible with ps4 controllers and a keyboard. And Thanks to support of SSD, you are settled with 128gb

[@X-Factor-by2kz]

I just ordered this from Best Buy and should be here today, but could be delayed because of the ice storm here. I'm looking forward to the 120hz refresh rate. I am hoping the camera will take macro photos. I was going to buy a new computer but opted for this. I can always use my laptop if needed. At some point I'll look into the magic keyboard.

[@dboyjealouss]

This is my first iPad I own, very helpful video! Thank you so much

[@bkentffichter]

There is no way you're ever going to convince me to pay $299 for a keyboard unless it does the typing itself and gives me a back massage at the same time

[@kasperk679]

I got the magic keyboard and yes, it is expensive but man, it is a good keyboard/protection for the iPad!

[@bkentffichter]

@@kasperk679 I have a great case. Definitely better than this one. So how on earth is it better than any other keyboard? For $300? Because it is attached? Not exactly worth that price.

[@kasperk679]

@@bkentffichter Don’t feel personally attacked mate, calm down. I explain it with love for you: in my opinion the key travel is perfect of this case, also the mouse trackpad works perfect. Besides that the iPad is attached to the keyboard is the integration superb, i have 2 spots to put a usb-c cable in, so i can connect more external drives or other stuff. tell me about yours? The brand ect.

[@Jashue]

In what at the time seemed like a complete lapse of reason, I shelled out the money for the magic keyboard. I’m here to tell you that I’ve never had a keyboard that I enjoyed typing on more. Apple totally NAILED it with this one.

[@SpodTeK]

I tried the magic keyboard but returned it for the Logitech magic touch combo. It offers more protection and you can use it as a tablet way easier. It's also cheaper 💪

small clarification for 10:44 1000 Nits of full screen brightness is only achieved with hdr content, 1600 Nits is only achieved in individual areas, not full screen (and also only with hdr content). normal full screen brightness is 600 nits.

[@babyboy1971]

I just got this in the base 11 inch pro model, 128 GB. I’m excited. I’m hoping it’s enough storage. I mostly do content consumption and streaming but I do play some games and edit some photos, draw a bit in procreate and write some papers and take notes for school. Some zoom calls and emails. Nothing too extreme. No video editing. Is 128 sufficient for most users? I have a lot of iCloud storage and keep a lot in my Google drive or Dropbox, so I’m hoping that will help, and I keep most of my songs, podcasts, audible books and photos on my iPhone. My iPhone is 128 GB and I am only using about 75-80 gigs, and I have a TON of stuff on it, so I’m hoping 128 will suffice for the iPad. Thoughts?

[@stephenvsawyer]

Max full screen brightness of 1000 nits is ONLY when watching HDR content, when just using the iPad it maxes out at 600 nits just like the 11 inch. Very important detail.

[@AlexsaurusRex]

Thanks for the heads up. I don't think I needed it to get to 1000 nits since I use it for drawing mostly, but it's good to know when the 1000 nits are enabled

[@precursors]

Wrong, peak brightness is at 1600 nits when watching HDR, not 1000. 1000 nits peak brightness is while you're watching anything full screen. Normal home screen or browsing has 600 nits peak brightness.

[@kylitrixgames4980]

Okay, Nice video, but only one complaint. Buy the logitech combo touch instead of the magic keyboard and let me tell you why. 1. When removing ipad from keyboard (magnetic) to use the ipad as a tablet, you still have a case around it to protect your (1200$+) ipad [BIG DEAL]. 2. You can tilt the ipad in waaaay bigger angles (almost 90°), while magic keyboard is very limited.. [big deal when Reading or watching videos]. 3. The keyboard had more room at upper keys so fingers don't touch the ipad itself. 4. The touchpad is bigger than on the magic keyboard (easier ofcourse) 4. The material is more modern and sleek and is more protective and endurable. And 5. The magic keyboard doesn't protect te sides, while the logitech one does while still being able to hold the magic pen magneticly.
