[@TheWarptOne]

I upgraded my two-year old iPad Pro to the M4 because of the trade-in value. Essentially for the cost of a brand new basic ipad, I got a new Pro. The weight loss and the display are very nice.

[@ibiza09putitthisway]

I bought the 11 inch iPad Pro 256gb in space black to replace my 2016 9.7 iPad Pro 128 gb and all I can say is WOW! The OLED panel is simply stunning! I strictly use my iPad for media consumption and I truly think this is the best media consumption device ever created. For the people saying that you should only get the pro if you do pro things, I think that is a lie. Comparing the oled to the lcd panel in the Air, there is no comparison. The oled blows it out of the water! Since my last iPad lasted me 8 years, I think this is going to last me 10 years easily with all the excess power I have available for my use case. What display do you wanna look at for the next 10 years? And also in the great debate between 11 and 13 I think it comes down to two things, do you create on it and do you use it on your lap or at a desk. If you are a creator or use it on a desk for productivity with a keyboard, go 13. If you are like me and use it for consumption and are are mostly holding the device, go 11. The size difference of 16:9 aspect ratio videos is so small between the two sizes, the extra heft is not worth it imo. Anyway I’m absolutely loving the best $1000 Netflix machine on the market! lol

[@richguest]

Same here 😊

[@CelesteMSun]

I agree. I come from an iPad Air 4 and… I went to the store to try out and the OLED just wins all the way. Especially if you already own a Pro iPhone and M1 MacBook… it’s really hard to go back to 60 Hz refresh rate. I personally think the 11” Pro M4 is stunning. But it sucks that I need a 13” for my job, music sheet replacement. Otherwise I would have gone with 11inch it’s just perfect. Also something to think about, I also ended up not using the iPad Air as much so if it will be more expensive but you will get more out of it, it’s worth every penny more.

[@bartenml]

This is very inspiring to hear. My I pad pro M1 is absolutely fine but I am tempted to trade it in. I use my I pad constantly due to being disabled. Thanks for the positive feedback. Cheers from London.

[@ibiza09putitthisway]

@@bartenml Cheers mate! I think you’re probably good with M1 for a while longer. A long while but if you really want the best screen possible you won’t be sad about the upgrade! You could probably get way more selling the M1 on eBay or Facebook than the trade in btw

[@brandonchutt312]

True for the 11in but the OLED might be a downgrade for the 12.9in that used to be mini LED

[@inspector-tech]

No bro… It’s not $200 difference. It’s $20 difference. What people fail to understand is that the M4 base model now has 256GB and to get 256GB on the previous iPad You had to pay about the same price as this M4 which is about a $20 difference, okay? So for $20 more you’re getting a heck of a lot for your money compared to the M2 version…

[@hammettd89]

Not really. The storage upgrade from 128gb to 256gb cost is not worth $200 for most people. Most would buy the base, especially when there’s only one nand on the 2024 base iPad Pro.

[@Alwarin1]

Ye, bro... The buy in to the product line is 200 more. What people fail to understand is that there is now no 128 GB base so that to buy an iPad pro, you now need to buy an upgrade you might not have wanted.

[@xselfcreative]

For the first time it felt like this video is biased towards the m4. Even the m1 ipad and screen is capable to edit and color grade videos and it’s great and in this video m2 ipads screen looked like from 1980s perhaps night mode or something is turned on, on the m2 since m4 screen looked brighter and more white and m2 looked like it’s all pale and brownish. To get the m4 ipad you need to get apple pencil and keyboard back again and this is unacceptable imo just to get the m4 why should i get everything back again while i already have the pencil and keyboard. That’s typical, the greedy apple ditching their own gadgets in couple of years and it’s not normal. So it’s not only $200 difference at the end.

[@jayyycrawford23]

Facts

[@MRing1107]

The reason the screens looked so different is just camera technology; in person it may have been a little less stark because the human eye has impressive dynamic range but to film them side by side the m4 is so enormously brighter it can either be shown blown out or they set the cameras to make the m4 visible but the m2 will of course look underexposed. From a technical perspective though the cameras are showing you the truth.

[@AzVfL]

Fr the M2 with LCD still has P3 & they were talking like it had a 60% sRGB TN panel 💀

[@MRing1107]

@@AzVfLOLED has vastly better contrast. That changes color perception as well as the maximum difference in luminosity. Try opening a photo in Lightroom or your photo editor of choice. First increase contrast significantly and watch the color. Then reset it and increase saturation instead. Similar effect on color. (Not the same effect, but similar to what is probably happening here) Indeed, pro camera lenses aren’t just more sharp than budget ones, they have improved contrast - which means better color rendition and perceived quality , even though the sensor behind two different lenses is the same with the same color space!

[@SunilPatri-x9h]

I own iPad Pro M1 12.9”. Based on the online reviews that M4 iPad Pro with OLED got even brighter, colourful, perfect black level screen etc., I ordered one to see if I should replace my M1 Pro. I found indeed it is brighter, better contrast and more punchy colours and of course buttery smooth. What I did not like is that it has quite a warmer tone, skins tone is not great. When I kept M1 and M4 Pro side by side it was quite evident - M1 I found more neutral and natural colours. I’ve done lots of photo editing and quite sensitive to colour accuracy - did not find M4 convincing enough to and worth $1,300 USD. May be later OLED improvement would be better, for now M1 Pro continues to be excellent.

Don’t go into credit card debt just to “feel good” with the new one.

[@h1a8]

Here is some constructive criticism. It's better to focus on REAL world tests (like opening apps, scrolling speed and smoothness, game play, etc). Less than 1% of buyers are going to do serious video editing (editing that takes more than a minute). Benchmarks are meaningless due to ios not able to make use of the hardware. Just look at the phonebuff speed tests. Android phones have beat iPhones several times when iPhones Benchmarks were significantly better. No one is going to put their screen on fully bright indoors. That wasn't a fair comparison. Less than 0.1% of users could care less for barrel roll or even drawing. Writing is far more important and the older ipad made writing feel exactly like real writing. Who cares about less lag when the experience is already like real writing? It's like you are trying to do a commercial for apple with these benchmarks. Those things are not important whatsoever these days.

[@robertochaves4535]

A lot better! You can full dynamic range for HDR per pixel, so you can never get into situations with glow, which is a huge benefit for us who do photo or video editing.

[@Elite.868]

Tandem OLED displays offer several advantages over Mini LED displays, particularly in terms of battery life, efficiency, and display longevity. Tandem OLEDs provide more efficient light emission and thus lower power consumption, leading to longer battery life in portable devices. These displays also have better longevity as the stacked layers reduce the wear and tear on individual layers, increasing overall durability. Unlike Mini LED, which can suffer from blooming-a halo effect caused by light leakage from LEDs around bright objects on a dark background-Tandem OLEDs offer superior contrast and deeper blacks without such issues. Additionally, OLEDs have faster response times and better colour accuracy, which enhance the overall viewing experience.

m4 is the most powerful chip apple has made. with your thought process, you might as well wait until the m5, or the m6. maybe even the m7. they will always improve.

[@Dr-Mengueche]

You know what you should compare. Watching HDR content (movies purchased from the tv app). When I watch HDR content without battery saver mode, everything looks super dark and dim. I ended up discovering that to fix this issue (not actually a fix, but will just make the ipad go to SDR mode instead) close the apple tv app, put the ipad on power saver mode, and that will fix the dim screen making everything look better. Do not know if this will be fixed with this iteration but HDR on the apple tv app is completely broken. For refrence I have an M1 ipad with mini-led backlight. PS: and is not just there. Netflix, disney plus all look dim when watching HDR content with power saver mode off (which should make the ipad use its full potential but it doesn’t)

[@tbud3734]

Ask yourself one question: will you turn up screen brightness to 100% to watch videos in pitch dark? if so upgrade to oled else LED backlit is more than enough. Overblown video in dark to show LED backlit display is useless.

[@mjm0787]

Is it worth upgrading if you already have the M2 though?

[@DP-gt7sr]

Nope.

[@redeem5858]

Yes if you need more power

[@7invi]

Who would use an iPad for video editing? Perhaps you need to use 2TB iCloud, Dropbox, or a USB-C port for the copies. Software and games requirements are still far behind. Additionally, the app commission and license fees are too high, and the iPad user base is tiny, so many big developers do not focus on the M4 iPad. It is not necessary to have an overkill CPU with a higher selling price, as the iPad is mostly used for entertainment or drawing purposes.

[@TheJordanLeopold]

There’s no affiliate link for the M2 iPad Pro… Just the new M4s and iPad Airs. Any links anywhere?

[@darthnoward4612]

We need comparison between new tandem Oled and old mini led!

[@y.servet]

Great video, Thank you. Could you compare it with Samsung S9 Ultra, especially displays?

[@Mindtrash_]

I got the 13inch and plan to sell the 13inch M2. Call me crazy but I find them so different...loving the M4 so far

[@rosh4d.]

You need to review the difference between the iPad Pro M2 (2022) and the iPad Air M2 (2024). I am struggling to pick one! It would be my first iPad too.

[@TDK471]

Pro because of the 120hz display , it’s very smooth

[@Johnmims65]

Which is a better buy the 11” or the 13”

[@hskeva]

I have the first iPad Pro and I don’t think I will upgrade until Mac OS becomes available.

[@traxonwax]

I have a 2018 11” pro and I really want this.

[@user-gq3eq5bf9t]

buy me 1

[@gamingvariation1323]

Yeah same but imma wait for iPad iOS wwdc to see if it’s worth it or no and imma go for 13 inch just hope battery is good

[@RemofRenaissance]

I guess if you have the money then why not. 2018 to now seems like you’ve used your tech for a long enough cycle. Enjoy. For me - money is an issue and I have an M1 so maybe a year or two from now.

[@veerdoshi9797]

How much faster charging ipad pro M4 supports no one is talking about ?

[@Elite.868]

Tell me if u fine it please I think it’s 36watts

[@joetheboy04]

I think 60W peak but nominal is about 40W if temps permit

[@richardcarr1090]

I almost bought one a few weeks ago but first checked on the availability of the Smart Folio Keyboard and there is none! Attaching the bulky/heavy Magic Keyboard makes the iPad’s improved weight/thinness meaningless. No sign that Apple intends to sell a folio that works with the new iPad Pros.

[@absk601]

What oled tech is used in iPhone 15 pros? Isn’t it better than these new iPad Pros?

[@XtianApi]

2018 iPad pro 12.9 here. As an art tablet, can still support an art career. Ram would be nice, twist on the pencil is a maybe. Waccom has had it for a long time. Otherwise, still fine with mine. Oled is a want not need

[@keithwhisman]

The M4 document scan seemed a little more overblown with the white balance being a little to high.

[@thecfamily5294]

I have the M1 12.9” iPad that’s much more capable than what I use it for. I never have to wait for it. I decided to stick with the M1 over spending more for the M2. Now I need to buy a new pencil and keyboard for the M4. I don’t see it. The differences between the M1 and M2 was minimal if anything for typical use. The M4 seems minimal between the M2 and M4 for typical iPad use. Apple did much more going between the 2018 and M1 making that upgrade well worth it. I kept my pencil and keyboard with that step. Having to buy a new pencil and keyboard will keep me where I am. Otherwise I would have likely upgraded to the M4. I think 2 minimal changes makes a worthwhile upgrade for the iPad alone.

[@clintgolub1751]

M4 IPad Pro mic seemed clearer, were they improved? Scans I’m not sure looked better in that example you had for the OCR-esque tech.

[@LesterJared2004]

Should I get the m4 ipad pro or the m2 ipad pro

[@shApYT]

And the 2018 ipad pro can still do everything you would do on iPad OS.

[@CeasarBergonia]

Considering upgrading from my current M2 256gb Pro to the M4 just for the display. Apple Store will trade in for $450 and I originally got my current Pro for $600 last year (it was one of those 1 day only sale and while supplies last). Already at 85% battery life (I use it everyday until battery drains) so I would need to spend $150 for new battery/refurbished iPad. May be I’m just self justifying to buy the latest and greatest.

[@Thomasjcolbert82]

I did trade my M2 one in. I wanted this new screen. The new magic keyboard is definitely better to type on. One thing I definitely noticed was that when using it other then on a flat surface, it wants to fall backwards more then my M2 setup. I would add weight to the front, but I can’t lol.

[@JCustom]

Thank you for making relevant content on these ipads for those who want to use it for more than netflix. Endless "reviews" on youtube using this device as a giant 2015 iphone and missing the benefits of the product completely. While I own both the m2 and m4 your review saves me a lot of time of self testing lol

[@Testimony201]

Wow that’s nice. You got a point, most of the KZbinrs rn are jjst talking about stuff they can’t even do themselves, like drawing and music production. Only boordenetwork, if I’m spelling his channel name correctly, made a gaming video. The rest KZbinrs were just copying and pasting Apple’s key note presentation on the iPad. Especially the 13inch, like bruv, most of us aren’t even gonna buy the 13inch model, especially me. The 11inch is way too perfect for me.

[@josephkim007]

It’s nice of you to include the 11 inch size. I think that the display may prove to be a lot better on the newest one. I think the bigger question maybe which one is more worth it between the bigger size iPad

[@aaronbakerbcg3984]

I have a 11” M2 Pro and no plan for upgrading anytime soon. Maybe in 2026 or whenever the next iPad comes out.

[@danielvarela1312]

Played with the M4 iPad 4 yesterday and wow, the screen is just amazing, I know IPadOS will always be bad, but that piece of tech is amazing, definitely getting one later in the year.

[@lou7139]

I gots a 2015 iPad Pro on original battery. I wonder if I'll notice any difference upgrading to the M4 iPad Pro. Eh, I'll just wait until M5 and see what it brings.

[@Augmented_AI]

I notice when I write on my iPad the screen goes down. I saw this in the video and annoys me. I would like for Apple to make it right like writing on paper on a hard table

[@joemamaizan5935]

Get paperlike

[@lllllllllqq]

This product has a high premium in China, especially the 13-inch version of s. Even the ordinary 256gb is close to 12,000 yuan, but I still bought it, I think it is very good. Compared to the previous generation, it has a better screen, but also lighter, thinner, better heat dissipation, and performance has been improved a lot

[@David-sb2jt]

very curious about the M2 iPad Air and M4 iPad Pro's real world battery life... If you can, could you please do battery comparison between previous models for both new ipads?

[@user-ws6nu4mq8k]

The speakers do not sound identical though? There’s a lot of talk about the new one being inferior and I can hear it even in this video. M4 is more tinny overall.

[@joshtorresfdu6621]

The thinness doesn’t matter to me, the ultra wide matters to me cause I do use the camera, I don’t think you’re really gonna see the speed difference with the chips, so all you’re paying for is the new screen?? Worth it for old iPad users but from m2 to m4 idk.

[@19pacman73]

what I dont get with the new line setup of apple. how comes that the the new iPad only has one camera, what happens to spatial video for vision (pro). so you are meant to record that on the iPhone. very interesting

[@Betancourtdm]

With headphones on, those speakers did not sound identical, the M4 sounded a bit lacking compared to the M2

[@sy5924]

thank you so much for naming the chapters 😭

[@nathanzanny8363]

Can u compare it to the older model perhaps the 2020 pro?

[@ENGW1SH]

All that and the more prominent display for better productivity explain why I upgraded from the iPad Pro 11 M2 to the iPad Pro 13 M4. Furthermore, I am thrilled I did; the thing is fantastic. Setting aside the brightness and HDR quality, the deeper blacks make writing on the thing a great experience (I like sharp, black text since I stare at words for many hours a day). I will not say I notice any meaningful speed difference in day-to-day use, but having more headroom in case I need it is good. Weirdly, people have responded that the M4 is a lot faster, as if it is terrible, just because iPadOS is not MacOS. Furthermore, who knows, maybe Apple will introduce something at WWDC that will better utilize all that power. Allthough the new keyboard is just as expensive as last year the quality difference is so much better.

[@dil7508]

Wait is this one with or without nano glass whats the difference?

[@logandenelskycfi]

Couldn’t disagree more with the assessment of the nano texture glass. Two days in… it look amazing and makes this iPad usable in situations where my older 12.9” model was useless.

[@Mansourmelouli]

Nice video , but ihave 12.9 m1 mini led so scren is almost the same , extra power im iPad oś ? For what?

[@romainbailet6488]

[@Jimmyfly215]

its been months since this ipad was released, and i cannot get off my 12.9 M2 Pro.

[@BTSflyer]

Finally, finally an iPad with an Oled screen. I have been waiting for years for this. About 6 years ago I looked at a Samsung tablet that has an Oled screen and it was beautiful. Now the iPad has it too. Should have not taken so damn long.

[@javiermurillo2573]

Guys, I’m big fan of your videos and work. But saying your opinion about nano texture based on other comments doesn’t have sense 😅. I have the nano texture version of the m4 iPad Pro and it’s insane. Something everyone should experience without compromises. Reflections are distraction, if you have nano texture, the colors and the iPad screen it’s looking more as intended. I hope to have iPhone and MacBook Pro with this technology. There is no point of apple charging 100 USD to offer a worst experience of one their products. Thank you and wishing you all the best.

[@ElCapitanD]

Thanks for the video, I wanted to find info on the iPad M4 5G modem compared to iPhone 15 also WiFi wise. Is there a noticeable improvement? Thanks again.
