My iPad is my "2nd TV" while I'm in the kitchen cooking or doing the dishes. That's why I bought the most basic of basic entry iPad. I do use it almost every day, but as I said 90% of the time just to stream content when I am busy in the kitchen. No need for anything more expensive.

[@TheIndulgers]

I think the problem with iPad right now is that the MacBooks have gotten sooo good that they replace the need for iPads in the past. Before with Intel, you had hot, loud, inefficient chips that would last only several hours. Now the MacBooks have true all day battery, they sleep/wake correctly, silent, cool, etc. The iPad is now just a MacBook with frustrating OS limitations. I don’t see me replacing my 2020 M1 air for ages still. My new Dell work pc is inferior in every metric 3 years later.

[@DFN21_]

I bought the iPad Pro 2nd gen back when it came out and I use it very lightly for some light work and KZbin and it’s still blazing fast. I can’t imagine how useless an M2 iPad would be for me lol. Finally went from Intel Mac to m2 pro and dangggg it was night and day difference. Great video as always, 100k subscribers this year let’s go!

7:47 My team is the Chicago Bulls... but I do some following of other teams including the Toronto Raptors and Atlanta Hawks

[@davidperrii]

how are you just coming up on my feed??? I'm binging your content omg

[@philoupc2239]

Happy New Year Terren from Montreal ! Great review for me it would have to be my iPhone 15 Pro Max , Air pods pro 2nd gen , I also bought a Nintendo Switch Oled and I love it , also my LARQ self cleaning water bottle and my Oura ring and of course my Sonos Roam speaker :)

[@Meercatfilms]

Thank you for the interesting video and insight on your favourite tech, what is the camera on your thumbnail please?

[@TerrenRule]

Glad you enjoyed! It's a Sony FX30

[@Jimmyfly215]

favorite tech: airpods pro 2nd generation, iphone 15 pro max, ipad pro m2 12.9, surprisingly Beat Studio Pro. (been waiting on new Airpods Max) *still love my macbook pro 2021 14 inch base model. keep up the great work Terren!

[@shameermulji]

How do you like sound quality of Beats Studio Pro?

[@Jimmyfly215]

@@shameermulji they are pretty good, not great. Like the features, good noise canceling, far from the best. But really good sound overall and very comfortable

[@hafuridotus]

Will the Opal Tadpole work with a monitor that has a somewhat slim bezel?

[@RizwanPervez]

which camera and mic did you used to record this video?

[@miggyyusay]

#imadeit Since I'm a fresh grad, bought an LG 27" 4K USB-C monitor, Logi MX Keys Mini, Brio 100 webcam, and MX Master 3S as a "self grad gift" to pair with my M2 MacBook Air. My favorite out of the bunch is probably the 4K monitor, because I can do so much more at my desk without cramping my eyes on the 13.6" MacBook Air display. I wish I had spent a bit more on the webcam since the field of view is quite narrow at only 58 degrees, but then again I had a tight budget constraint.

[@zachstorm97]

hey g love you love the channel, I have an ultra watch too. nay favorite part of this video is when youre like this is how my video looked bfore and now I use a beautiful key light and professional cine camera and have god powered computers and the sexiest display the game for editing. brother T keep up the good work. its fun to watch when you're happy. fav team in the league is the Knicks peace and prosperity in 2024 from buffalo

[@POVwithRC]

Personally speaking, the FX30 in the thumbnail as well as the 11mm have been total bangers for the things I produce. For strictly video no photos, the FX30 is an amazing workhorse that does not cost as much as the FX3 but delivers most of the same qualities. (I own both, send help). S23 Ultra too, but don't hold it against me.

[@TerrenRule]

What were your tech favourites and flops in 2023? :) Let me know below!

[@REVIEWSONTHERUN]

#imadeit. Thanks for sharing it. iPad, AirPod pro, and MacBook Pro, iPhone my favourite ✌️

[@TheTechRak]

Let's go Raps! What are the specs for your M2 Pro?

[@adamburston719]

I really like this video. Great scripting and video editing. However, these aren't tech flops in the conventional sense of the phrase. They're 1) bad units and 2) decisions that didn't pan out. Not the kind of company wide disaster that counts as a flop imo.

[@Thetundet]

My M1 MacBook, iPad Pro 4th Gen and Apple Watch Series 8 are my favorite tech purchases this year. Took my whole productivity to the next level

[@Thetundet]

Did I forget the 15 Pro Max? Beast!!

[@krmtdfrg]

Send me that iPad Air if you not gonna use it, LOL
