This is actually not the first time in history a flagship chip has debuted in an iPad. The original iPad was the first product to debut the A4 chip, which was later used in the iPhone 4.

[@Marco-em2in]

The IPad has usually been the product that gets Apples most powerful chip before Apple M1 series. From M1 on the MacBooks got it first followed by IPad and the IPhone keypad the A series which is currently on A16 Bionic and is on par or a little bit inferior to the M1. The IPhone 15 is not even as powerful as an M1 I believe so this M4 chip will be future proof for a long time.

[@ericchang7759]

M4 in iPads first allows low end Mac rollout and roll up through the lineup. It also buys more time for the Ultra/Extreme. Thin and light positions Magic Keyboard better for laptop replacement. Subtle, but again Apple trying to position where competition cannot follow.

Apple is just being too much while being too little. If that makes any sense. SMH. 🤦‍♂️ Apple is too expensive, they really need to get their shit together and upgrade better and faster

[@elmarcentral]

The nano textured screen is actually a very niche solution and could be easily replaced by a screen protector. It simply makes your screen worse in all aspects except for reducing the glare. Doesn't help artists, people report there's no difference using Apple Pencil. Besides, it is probably super easy to damage it with a stylus.

[@Adiparekh]

Time to upgrade my 2018 ipad pro

[@jonyu9333]

Getting a s9 ultra or waiting for s10 ultra. At least it has dex.

[@ShaunM001]

Great break down! Thanks, as always. Some of these I didn’t even notice.

[@RedRai47]

where is ipad mini 7 ???

[@lukastechtips]

They removed some features because of a few reasons The 5th mic: bc of the new landscape camera The ultra wide: bc not many people used it The mystery dot is an ambient light sensor for document scanning The Apple Pencil actually does have a different charging method on the side instead of the middle bc of the new landscape camera

[@MrCoggibird]

No one is talking about the lack of MagSafe Charging that everyone was convinced was coming to it……

[@DanLetts97]

I shouldn’t imagine too many people are asking for that. They were trying to get the weight down and had to prioritize.

[@gibby3350]

The fact that you could buy the 3rd generation iPad Pro with more features and better compatibility with Apple Pencil for $620 from the certified refurbished store should be a no brainer!

[@airbedruad]

The pencil mount and charge is NOT the exact same. Because the FaceTime camera was moved they redesigned the charging pad location.

[@perilsofpride]

Maybe the full potential would be revealed with iOS18

[@everydayday9437]

I hope so

[@markm4123]

It seems like with the addition of the 13 inch air, it makes no sense to get the pro’s unless 1. You have the money or 2. You NEED the promotion display. But even with number 2, just get an M2 iPad Pro and you’ll still be ok

[@finnmeadows5533]

22 views in first minute. Apple track has fallen off 😢

[@lukepruscino5101]

I’m upgrading for the fact that it’s lighter since I already carry a 5 pound MacBook with me so the decrease in weight is definitely nice. I also love find my is finally in the Apple Pencil because I’ve lost so many of them. I love the front camera has been repositioned. I never used the second camera on the back of the iPad and I don’t care about 5G so I think this will be worth it for me to upgrade.

[@t8polestarcyan22]

You're definitely right about iPads for sure. They're weirder than ever! For that I'm for Android alternatives.

[@karlfran0404]

Regarding removing the wide screen camera; the number of people that use the white screen camera about zero. It’s only used for scanning

[@andreweyden9832]

iPad 13inch Pro 256mb in Australia costs us $2200.00 for wifi only. Cellular & wifi, 256mb $2600.00. Magic Keyboard $579.00. If you buy through your phone company you will pay over $3000.00 on a 36mth plan.

[@sonictonic_]

It's def a little shady that Apple removed multiple things the same year as a little price increase but I am still excited 1) for that awesome OLED tech, 2) the price increase (again) was not as big as rumors stated, and 3) lucky for me I never took pictures or video with my iPad or used 5G, so the losses aren't bad for me... I'm excited to get mine next week. Trading in my old 11" Pro 256GB and getting the new 11" Pro with 512GB in Space Black to match my SB MBP, and after the instant trade amount it's a little over $700. Not too bad!

[@DanLetts97]

Apple has obviously become aware that the iPad pros are very uncomfortable to hold. Unfortunately, making it thinner and lighter will only help marginally, because the problem is with the flat metal edge design. It may look cool, but it doesn’t make sense ergonomically, the edges dig uncomfortably into the palm of the hand.

[@DirkKuepper]

What most people have not yet understood: This announcement is the definitive start of the end of Apple desktop computers as we know and love them today. Putting a new processor in a tablet first is a very clear message and signal. As always, only Apple itself can say how much time we have to say goodbye to desktop computers. We may know more in a few years' time.

[@smartyoff2010]

Seems like a skip year for those who have the m2 iPad Pro. I would’ve loved to see some of the new features but I think this year is subpar to what could’ve been done. I’m excited to see what they do next year or even the year after

[@Msteve-nt5bx]

I miss the matte options on their displays. My first macbook pro had a matte display. Minimal glare. It was awesome

[@Goodyear68]

Very good video 👍 Thx 4 sharing 🙂 How do you guys think the lifespan (software updates) for the iPad Pro 11" 2022 is gonna be? My old iPad Air 2 got about 7-8 years of updates. That's bonkers 💪 Sadly not much saved on an refurbed/used iPad Pro Gen 4 here in Denmark (10-12%), so new 2022 is on my shortlist. Had my high hopes 4 the new Air, but meh a bit let down by the screen tech...even thou I'm just the average Joe.

[@mrmohamed4158]

🎉

[@SuAmigoAlex]

Awesome Video! 🤨There is absolutely no excuse why the new Apple Pencil Pro works on the new iPad Air and not on the M2 iPad Pro, since they both use the same M2 chip.🤔

[@00W0WingZero]

Just ordered the 256gb did not see I would be throttled to 8gbs of the 16 without 1 tb, why would they not make they clear?????

[@kyledotnet]

I wonder if the iPhone will also have that unexplained sensor on the camera bump, and that will have something to do with the rumored and leaked "capture" button on the side??

[@Primasanto2011]

The fact that I also need to upgrade my Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil is a good enough reason not to upgrade my 2020 iPad Pro

[@kinocchio]

This is the only video that has mentioned the things missing or not mentioned by apple

[@michaellanger5671]

So excited about the new polishing cloth

[@Christianmingle420]

The landscape camera not being centered is driving me insane

[@victordelacruz8440]

Removing the wide angle camera was wack of Apple and not bumping the camera specs to like iPhone Pro Max specs.

[@ruschein]

You're not alone in being excited about the Escape key! I am a shell command-line user and hate keyboards w/o an Escape key!

[@satdarshankhalsa8508]

Wait the new pro only works with the new pencil??? But apple’s website says u can use the 2nd gen…?

[@Alex-vp4ky]

Ipads are ipads. If youre not a student or artist or niche of content creators that prefers ipad workflows over mac os--then youre not the intended "pro user". Ipad (pros) are already well tuned machines for the clients and workbase that apple intends. Anyone "complaining" or wanting more from it need to realize we are asking for a triangle in a square peg. It doesnt seem like apple will ever shift it into the machine we envision it as. Wwdc _could_ change this, but i doubt that. Weve said it time and time again and im over believing such a thing is possible. I own an ipad, and while i do have specific ipad things that i use it for, i just live knowing it will never be my daily machine or go to device, despite how capable it could be.

[@Davehaha2001]

The prices in Australia are so crazy high and to get the nano coating on the screen is a joke can you imagine spending $4000 on a iPad to have Apple trade in tell you it’s worthless after you get it

[@VedantaVikram-sv4ci]

Excited for the polishing cloth 🤫

[@07szim]

Apple is turning into a joke

[@tommyb1two3]

Well this has kind of become Apples speciality, marketing in such a way that the consumer feels compelled to buy the latest products and deliberately make the more expensive models have exclusive "perks" so to speak to encourage people to spend more money on their new Apple product(s). Marketing is EVERYTHING when it comes to Apple.

[@ChairmanMeow1]

Their pricing strategy is SO GROSS.

[@neobow1]

To be honest, I'm happy they didn't change the shape of the Apple Pencil. They got it so right with the 2nd gen

[@tangoESPECIAL]

I’d also wait a year+ for the next version so Apple irons out any potential display issues … entirely new design, ultra thin … let’s see how it holds up

[@maricelp116]

Pro got thinner so that's probably the cons

[@RobloxianX]

I think the fact alone that you can spend 3000 dollars on a tablet should make you realize how people spend way more than they need on tech

[@ianrobinson1514]

Waiting on the inevitable bend test 💀

[@aquariumlad23]

It’s scummy they lock you to spending more on storage to get better specs. There is no reason for it other than forcing you to spend more. There should have been an option to add them at the lower storage.

[@MrOscar5690]

I have a gaming desktop, m1 backbook, og 2018 iPad Pro, and 2 e-ink tablets (ReMarkable and SuperNote Nomad) and still ordered a 13” iPad Pro. They’ll all have different uses. Some of y’all should seek to understand rather than just hate, just because you don’t understand.
