M2 Mac Mini vs M1 iPad Pro | DaVinci Resolve Battle

[@WadeWojcik]

I'm still just amazing we have a fully-featured version of DaVinci Resolve on the iPad. What an amazing time to be alive!

[@chrisbogart687]

To me, the real difference with the iPad Pro is the tactitle interaction that the iPad Pro brings, touch screen, touch pad, Pencil, and even can use a mouse. The iPad Pro on the Magic Keyboard like you show, brings a whole new dimension to editing. That is a whole different dimension of use than just pure speed numbers.

[@RestlessCreative]

Exactly the video that needed to be made. Top job!

[@Alatar67]

Michael, Thank you for another great video. I am Script Supervisor working in the industry for over 15 years. I purchased your DaVinci for the iPad tutorials to learn and eventually do some editing on my own. Hoping you have more tutorials soon utilizing all pages in DaVinci Resolve. Also a class / tutorial going a bit more in-depth with color grading and can you do a video how to add purchased or downloaded transitions to DaVinci Resolve. Thank you

[@pathofseekingknowledge9813]

Add touch screen monitor to Mac mini , u can do all that now haha

[@jorjlim]

This is a comparison I didnt know I needed….and now, want this for things that aren’t DaVinci

[@initialfocus]

What other programs would you like to see compared?

[@jorjlim]

@@initialfocus I’m not sure. I guess general usage, I have the M1 iPad and am debating buying the M2 Mini…

[@AdrianCardenas-x7z]

At time code you have some media off link for the mini Mac and also for the iPad so if we have the media linked it would be more time ?

[@TheBulletClubMadurai]

Much needed video, but if you had compared m2 ipad with m2 mac mini... Then that would be great

[@initialfocus]

Yeah I’d love to do that! But I only have the M1 and don’t have the budget for the M2 iPad right now 😅 but yes that would have been better

[@shawn3d]

From my tests, the playback on the iPad edit page is faster than in the color page. Its bizarre

[@ericvannielsen]

Amazing - really happy w the exact same iPad model. Could you make a video at some point soon using Fusion on the iPad Pro? Thanks!

[@DerZazaa]

Good video! How long does the battery last when you work? Videoediting

[@ElSignificado.]

Excelent video.. i know some persons who don't know what to buy in this case, i'm doctor and we need some programs with rosetta. Can You explain something about that in other video? All us need somebody explain that difference to buy fine.. some people use iPad to notes, safari, etc. But when they need to install some program with rosetta, they found the iPad with that limitation because ipadOS need apps to use. Thanks KRACK, from mexico

[@rudahsilva2074]

Amazing video. What bout to use the iPad just for clone tool. Im imagining if it could be used on a film set, do backup media us gin Davinci Resolve clone tool. Did you try that? Connecting two external devices to the iPad and them using DR clone tool to log the media? Thanks for your video.

[@Chaz_r]

Very interesting results. What Mac (and configurations) do you recommend to get the best results from resolve?

[@michaeld6438]

Maybe youve done it already. Id be interested in a video like this only opposite. I'd be more interested in seeing if a m2 pro is faster than an m1 mac mini. I have both and find the m1 mac mini faster. I assume its cause of active cooling and macos.

[@Shady.Moustafa]

what is the monitor model ?

[@DonnieGQX]

Amazing video, I'm on the fence between the MacBook Pro 14 or the Mac mini. But I'm glad I watched the bench test to see if either would handle smooth editing in resolve with 4k, export etc. Next I'm curious about the M2 iPad Pro & Mac mini Pro.

[@ethanwasme4307]

surely there's a setting on macos version to open recent projects on startup 😭

[@okaayyyybuddy1927]

Can you edit where the render cache colour output outputs to on a iPad Pro 2018? I tried settings, general and there was no place to set where the render cache goes and when i try rendering something on the timeline, It doesnt do anything.

[@imawildman]

Great comparison. kudos

[@initialfocus]

Thank you!

[@amatoridrottaren]

Is the editing View only avalible for iPad M1 & M2, or you have a newer Beta version?

[@okaayyyybuddy1927]

It's available for all versions of iPad - option,cmd,k to bring up the keybind menu. When your there search for 'Open page' and bind all of the pages to keys on your keyboard. When you save this, click these keys and you will get the pages.

[@AOBnAOSFilmNEnt]

Wonder how the m2 iPad will go against the m2 mini

[@sebasfilmedit]

Excellent video!

[@beesknees007]

what was the ram size of mac mini & m1 ipad

[@initialfocus]

The graphic shows it right in the beginning. Mac mini is 8GB and iPad is 16GB as it’s the 2TB model.

[@felipediaz8889]

Wait 33 mins on. A 4k video . Why so long ?

[@TeddyCavachon]

I’ve been shooting video on iPad / iPhone and editing with Lumafusion on the iPad but just bought a base M2 MiniPro to get more seriously into video using DaVinci Resolve for editing. Downloading Resolve on the Mini I noted the need to install Rosetta to run it. Does the iPad version also run under Rosetta or is it optimized to run natively?

[@bendesignsmedia]

You should not need Rosetta to run DaVinci on any apple silicon machine, it has been native since launch I think. Maybe it downloaded the wrong version to your machine. The iPad does not use Rosetta at all, DaVinci comes through the app store on the iPad only so it is definitely native.

[@TeddyCavachon]

@@bendesignsmedia That is good to know. Just to clarify, I downloaded from the DaVinci web site not the Apple App Store. Several other DaVinci apps were also downloaded so it might have been one of those which triggered the pop-up saying Rosetta had to be installed.

[@bendesignsmedia]

@@TeddyCavachon Ah, could be, I think I downloaded mine from the Mac App store, and on iPad the App Store is the only option

[@TeddyCavachon]

@@bendesignsmedia When downloading directly from BM there are several other accessory apps installed and I suspect some of those are what require Rosetta to run on Mac Silcon. I’ve upgraded to the Studio / Studio Editor package and I’m loving it. It is the tool I wish I had 50 years ago when I was trying to shoot weddings with Super8mm film and in the 80s when I was using a Sony 8mm camcorder, editing console and BetaMax.

[@coolkiddtreeleee248]

“ is between 25 and 27 seconds” 26 be like oh my God bro

[@kasunhemantha7417]

this is amazing 😮

[@initialfocus]

THANK YOU 🙌🏻

[@bigbtechproductions]

Oooh! Good video!

[@WizCreates]

The M1 iPad Pro is still very solid as an everyday professional computer.

[@thebusinessfirm9862]

Well done, mate. Superb production quality on this video. Content was super informative too.

[@youlupukki]

I'm here to share my final thoughts. I was watching your videos back then. And decided to go with mbp16 m1pro. It's perfect for video editing. Now I have m2mini and m1ipad 512. Why? Because iPad is too comfortable to work if you have family. I can edit my videos on a couch with my wife and kids while they are watching tv. With Mac, you have to sit on a working desk. And that's a bonker. Glory to ipad and DaVinci!

[@tinashezimunya2288]

Run this exact same test with internal storage I think they will be identical in terms of performance

[@Guironey]

txxxx for thissss

[@tiggapee]

No bro, that's the wrong one. Do the M2 iPad Pro vs the Base M2 MacMini

[@southwestkinema9149]

DaVinci Resolve Battle. Great video. It's a shame Apple hold the ipad back. There is Logic pro & Xcode sized elephants in the room 😁 & Stage Manager! Yukkkkk
