I had a 10th gen iPad kzbin.infoUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA . Felt it getting pretty slow at times even after doing a reset. So I am using that as a tablet for my 5 year old son and got this 9th gen version. MUCH faster, a little slimmer, smaller bezels, all around a leap forward. Plus, for the price that’s about $130-$150 cheaper than a current new model this is a nice deal. I look forward to the M-series CPUs coming into iPads which will really help future proof these tablets better but these latest CPUs are pretty strong and should do better to last several years with no compromises.

[@ketowolf]

Good review! I’m so hyped to receive mine! I REALLY hope this spec bump means more layers in Procreate! Maybe 140 layers?? Also More animation tools? I’m torn on the screen protector. I love the matte screen protector for drawing but at the same time... it does wash out the screen detail a little bit. And while I primarily draw on my iPad, I still love having a nice screen for video creation and consumption...

[@hittepa8509]

Great review Brad! You got me curious about the Paperlike-screen protector, I’m afraid a matte screen protector would compromise the screen quality of the new iPad Pro.. Do you have the same sharpness and colors with the Paperlike protection? Does it take away all the screen glare? I only use the apple pen sporadically and 95% of the time I just use my fingers, with that in mind - would you recommend it? how does it feel on the fingertip?

[@HappyGrl41]

Great video as always. Looking forward to more detailed reviews of the screen. Is it really worth the difference in price?

Thanks Brad. Once again, you’ve helped me save a little $$$ by keeping the focus on the drawing aspects of these annual updates. I’m super happy with my 2018 iPad Pro, but the upgrades make me twitchy. Sounds like I can take a breath and wait to see what they come up with next time.

I just bought the 2020 12.9 last October. It is really - really great. My only problem is I run out of layers on procreate. But hey that's a me issue because 14 to 20 some layers I'm not merging down in a good work flow. I was absolutely going to bankrupt myself with the 2021 1tb. But after seeing that screen. I am soooo happy to stay with 2020 pro. It's my daily work horse and driver. You will not be disappointed 👍🏽

[@lilih1081]

@@Bunny-Bones thank you, that’s very helpful :) how do you feel about the size of the 12,9”? I’m having a hard time deciding on the size, the 11” seems more handy and comfortable/lighter when I decide to draw sitting on the couch, but having more visual space is awesome too.

[@Bunny-Bones]

@@lilih1081 that is a hard but easy question. The 11 inch is so so much lighter and easier to carry around. But once you draw on the 12.9. It's another level. And after awhile it's just as easy to carry around. I carry my 12.9 to every room in a 2 story house and everywhere I go! Honestly having a 11 inch 2018 and a new 12.9 would be ideal if not for Covid. That 11 would give you a back up device and the light weight. And obviously the 12.9 is just better in every way for any kind of drawing!

[@Bunny-Bones]

@@lilih1081 fast answer. 12.9 pro. Absolutely for drawing. And it becomes familiar for everything else also. I have had both. 12.9 all the way. Personal opinion and pretty much every professional artist on their reviews and explanations.

[@babyboy1971]

I love your videos! Just ordered the M1 iPad pro, the 11” model in 128gb. I’m awaiting shipping and excited! I exchanged my iPad Air 4, which I really loved, but I wanted the pro. I could only afford the 128gb version, and I’m hoping it’ll be enough storage. I don’t do video work, just some Lightroom photo editing, some light procreate drawing, document and email writing, playing games and content consumption/ streaming. My previous iPad was the 256gb air, and it had a ton of apps, bunch of games, and a LOT of photos and I only used like 60 gigs or so, so fingers crossed I’ll be fine at 128. They need to offer the air in 128. Glad it was available for the pro. Thanks again for the great videos.

[@jakamaka11]

I come to you for reviews because youre the only one who points out these small details like the slight shadow around the screen, which now I cannot unsee. Regardless, I ordered one already and Im sure I can ignore it.

[@leahevergreenart]

still using the original ipad pro and it's finally starting to show its age when using Affinity Designer. Your reviews helpful. looking forward to hearing how many layers the 11inch version can get.

[@PSYCHOV3N0M]

I believe the amount of layers you can use depend on the RAM capacity of the iPad you're using. Both the 11-inch and 12.9-inch 2021 models have the same storage capacity/RAM capacity as each other. The 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB models all have 8GB of RAM. The 1TB and 2TB models all have 16GB of RAM. You should check the App Store for the latest update notes from the developer of the app that you use to see if they specify any specific optimizations for the new 2021 models. For any artist or video editor, I say go with any 1TB or 2TB model for the 16GB of RAM alone. It can definitely help to "future-proof" your purchase. Keep in mind that the Mini LED LCD panel is only available on the 12.9-inch 2021 iPad Pro.

[@leahevergreenart]

@@PSYCHOV3N0M Thank you so much, this is so helpful. As someone who likes to keep a hold of their tech for as long as possible ( still have the OG ipad pro haha ) future proofing my next purchase is important.

Would be nice to be able to run Mac version Clip Studio to bypass the iOS subscription version.

[@ewolam]

I wish there’s a way, since we paid much more than the regular iPad for the iPad Pro.

[@yeahgirl11]

That's a HUGE disincentive to get Apple products, but especially the iPad. Apple FORCES you to use their software for drawing even though you already paid for all the other products from Apple. No thanks. That's not professional or ethical of Apple to do that. If they're claiming this product is tailored to artists, then by default people should be able to use whatever software they want.

[@ZigUncut]

Or TVPaint. Or Toon boom.

[@sanjanphukan]

Hey great review as always ! I’m planning on getting the 11 inch variant. Will the XDR display have any visual difference on Procreate or any other drawing apps ? I currently have the 10.5 from 2017 and I mostly use it for Procreate. But since last year or so I’ve found that it stutters whenever I resize the canvas. And creates random lines whenever I use it while charging. Hence I’m thinking of getting the M1 version this year. Hopefully it won’t have all these issues in Procreate. Still pretty nervous about splurging so much money on one device. Since it’s about $980 here in India for the base version of the 11 inch variant. But I’ll also use for many years. That’s why I need it to be great.

[@oopsallluke]

great video, enjoyed the perspective

[@krumbine]

Any indication or insight on if the new internals might change how Procreate handles the antialiasing of layers when you move them around on the canvas (the way a bitmap softens every time you adjust a layer)?

Hey Brad, I really couldn’t wait for your review of the iPad Pro 2021, your review is technically is the only review that I really needed to listen to. I currently have the iPad Pro 2018 12.9” & I preordered the 12.9 2021 512GB VERSION. My go to art program is procreate. I’m kind of disappointed that the screen isn’t what you anticipated it to be. Oh well I’m sure I love my new device.

[@richorlin]

Great review, as always, Brad. At first, I was going to take your advice and stay with my 2018 12.9" iPad Pro. Then I visited my local Apple Store to compare the 2018 with the 2021 model. There is a BIG difference in the displays. The brightness on the 2021 is outstanding. The whites are whiter and the blacks are darker (sounds like a laundry detergent commercial) and I really don't notice much of a drop-off at the edges. It is very faint. Perhaps it's a matter of only some units having that as a problem. Overall, I felt it was worth the cost for an upgrade, especially as Apple is offering me $535 for a trade-in on the 2018 model. Checking on eBay, after eBay & Paypal fees, I wouldn't net much more than that anyway. Certainly worth the $700 for the upgrade.

[@crystanubis]

It's interesting that there's a gap in the glass. Apple says it's fully laminated. I wonder if it's because of it being XDR, and if that's the case, does the 11-inch version possibly have a leg up in this department?

[@Ali62594]

Thanks for the gap glass advice, so only the 12,9” version have this issue and the 11” is old good near glass display?

[@srikartheekdv2704]

Does the matte screen protector effect the XDR display ? Does it diminish the video quality which doesnot happen on glass protectors?

[@leafnode]

Ha! I see that you have the same issue I had: when adding subtitles (like at 2:13), Premiere (or some other video rendering software) does a full render of the frame, that's causing different lighting/coloring conditions. I solved that by switching from hardware to software rendering, but that's just a bypass, not a real solution.

Hi Brad, I’m an amateur painter and illustrator who’s been itching to get into digital art (and been saving up a while for it!) and would love your advice on whether you think this is the best iPad to start with? I’m planning to begin with ProCreate and Affinity Designer, but also keen to learn animation, more detailed graphic design on Photoshop/Illustrator, as well as basic video editing. Would you recommend making the more expensive investment in the 2021 iPad Pro so that I have greater flexibility for other software further down the line, or do you feel the 2020 iPad does the job well enough?

Hello… one quick question… with the iPad with 16GB of Ram… working on PROCREATE using 300 DPI… what would be the largest canvas size you can have and how many layered will give you? If is possible to give the dimension in INCHES would be great! Thank you for your videos!
