I went through a few hours of TH-cam looking for a video like yours! I'm exhausted, but grateful lol. I'm also petite and not an artist so I never considered the 12.9. I bought the 11 inch today, but left it boxed because after seeing the 12.9 inch in real life I couldn't stop thinking about it. Beautiful display and it actually didn't seem that large to me. So now I'm gonna return the 11 inch and take some more time to think about it. OOh I've typed a lot - sorry.
GREAT VIDEO!
Hi Miss Books - I'm so glad you found this video! Thats great you kept the box so you can return! I know what you mean, it also took me playing with the 11 inch to know 12.9 was meant for me (& allow me to not have any fomo lol) Hope you love your new ipad!
Can you give us an update please
Sooo what did you get
There’s something more down to earth with these non-studio channels, feels more real
Thank you! :) also able to save $
Excellent review! Most channels are too shallow by only covering the most generic use cases. The fact that you were specific and demonstrating your reasons makes it clear that you have a real appreciation for this product and what it can do. Thanks for sharing your insights.
Thank dylkim~! this comment makes me want to make more videos
Interesting explanation of why the 12.9” works for you, rather than an exposition centering on tech specs. Useful for me. Nicely done.
Thank you JP! I love this feedback and glad it was useful you :) stay tune more to come ~ about to push out a review on Apple Watch, love to get your thoughts on that review too!
@@EggsandPotatoe I’ll be watching and waiting.
@@jpshipwash6240 new Apple Watch video is now out 😊 love to get your thoughts if it’s useful for folks deciding on getting one (& hope u r enjoying your Super Bowl Sunday!) video here: th-cam.com/video/LNRKRB5vNLw/w-d-xo.html
@@EggsandPotatoe My daughter, a nurse, gifted me one a couple of years ago. I’m 70, I’ve had a triple bypass, and I’m diabetic. I don’t wear it because of all the bad news it sends. 😁
@@jpshipwash6240 what a great daughter you have JP! lol i know what you mean sometimes these watch notifications can make people worry necessarily too. but glad the ipad has been useful for you!
It’s super helpful to have someone with a similar frame to mine, as well as a similar use of the iPad give their opinion~~
Most of the people I’ve watched so far, are big guys that often lowkey discourage me from buying any iPad in general as they ALWAYS talk down on the products in some way, where it’s not really relevant…
Thank you for this honest review :D
Thank you! Glad it was helpful :)
I’ve literally watched so many comparison videos by all these tech “professionals” and yours is by far the best one!!! Exactly what I needed to know and practical thank you!!
Thank you @onlywithvic!
I have the 12.9 pro 2021 version and it’s awesome. So many of the concerns and problems people talk about were a non issue for me in the end. All I would say is I’m glad I got the cellular and wifi version, but buy what you can afford and suit’s your needs.
100% agree with you Ian! same here, i ended up loving the 12.9
Agreed the cellular version is a cheat code
Bro I am a college student which one should I buy I have to carry in bagpack use cases are watching movies classes and playing games reading books I want to take 12.9 but budget is also with me but I have read articles they tell 12.9 is much heavier difficult to handle and etc please reply 😢
@@anurag-kz7df I’ve heard that the 12.9” is not heavy to carry, but uncomfortable. I do not have the 12.9” just yet, but I do plan on buying it.
If you do things like play games, read, watch movies and videos, and you need to have that bigger space, get the 12.9”. If portability matters and you want to have a tablet that is much easier to carry, I suggest the iPad Air 5th generation. If you want to go for a pro version and care about portability, then I suggest getting the iPad Pro 11”.
If you do not care about all kinds of specifics when it comes to technology, I suggest you get the iPad Air 5th generation or the iPad Pro 11”. But, I suggest you get the iPad Air 5th Generation if budget is a thing for you.
If you want to save, but also want a pro version, then I suggest you get the iPad Pro 11”.
Everyone is different. Some people who don’t take notes have the ipad 12.9” because they want a bigger screen and they don’t have issue with portability. I’ve heard some people say that the iPad Pro 12.9” is just uncomfortable at times..
@@adriannanorwood ok bro
Great insights on the many uses. You really convinced me. Glad I tuned in. Many Thanks
Thank you Charles! glad you tuned in~
I bought the 11" and got kind of used to it but wanted to exchange it for the 12.9". When I was boxing up the 11" I was having pre withdrawals that i'd regret keeping the big one. After watching your video (petite hands sold me) I'm confident sending the 11" back is the way to go. Thanks for making this video!!!
Thanks Trina - glad it was helpful for you! When I first got mine 12.9 I was not sure if I would like it cuz of the size , but I have been in love since and can never go back to smaller ipad :) Hope you'll love yours!
I fell in love with my 12.9 Ipad pro too , I don't think I can go back. I use multi tasking and take notes on it every day and I love to draw on it .🥰
yas i’m with you 100%! 😄 glad to hear you love it too Heba!
thanks for the video! i also have small hands and was looking for a review for someone with a pretty similar build to me hehe. Im convinced to buy the 12.9” now. Cheers!
so happy to hear this review was helpful to you ~ yas when I was debating if the 12.9 was right for me I thought of the same thing where I wanna get review from people with similar build to me :) Lmk how you end up liking the 12.9 cheers!
Omg I've been unable to decide between the 12.9 and the 11 for a while now and your explanations for the screen size and the "goodbye phone" part are so relatable so I'm gonna go for the 12.9!! Thank you so much!!
so glad to hear Phil! let me know how you like the 12.9! 😄
@@EggsandPotatoe Just bought my 12.9!! I initially bought the 11 inch even after watching your vid because of the portability and the price, but I quickly realized you were right, and I just picked up the 12.9!! No regrets!!
Amazing review. Thank you! Most reviews cover tech comparisons which is good but it’s refreshing to see a review that covers daily use, makes it easier to decide.
Thank you so much hxope!
thank you for this great video!
It helped me a lot in my decision to choose the right iPad.
yay - glad you enjoyed it!
This was such a great review! Just the questions I had in mind to make the best decision. Thank you!
yay !
Well explained. This is very insightful. Thanks
best video i’ve seen for comparison Thanks
Thank you MultiMat90~
Just got mine in the mail today. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhcEDB3r-OJ3_X5hQzr7k1ZofTQy1ao_U The corners of the box was a little smashed but I think that’s more of the shipping’s fault. iPad was in perfect condition though. I ordered the yellow one thinking it was going to be a bright vibrant color. Instead I looks like more of a Gold color. I personally prefer the gold look. Definitely not disappointed but just a heads up to the ones expecting a brighter cream of yellow.
Thank you so much for your video. For a while, I was sure to get the 11-inch iPad Pro because I already have a laptop and an iPhone. But you have a point about wanting to stay away from laptop which I also use for work. 12.9-inch iPad Pro will be helpful to set the boundary between work and my personal stuff like note-taking for school, tracking my investments, consuming media, other productive things.
I need to go to the store and try it for myself. But thank you. Your video is helpful. ✨
Btw, I’m also petite and have small hands. Really relatable 😂
Thanks Aubrey!🙂Yes the 12.9 is such a good change from the laptop, while still allowing you to be super productive on it! Most of my best ideas and planning happens on the 12.9 first, then I transfer to the laptop when I'm ready to execute on the ideas/plans (usually they are things like documents, slides, heavy video editing, etc.).
But ipad wins for being the 'Fun' device, as when i hold it I feel joy (meanwhile opening my work laptop makes me feel drain lol).
Yayy petite besties! (im thinking about doing a review on the Apple Watch Ultra - which would be hugeee looking for people like us lol)
I wish! This video had been recommended before 🥺 but i am glad it got recommended so the next iPad i buy would be the larger 1 thank you for the review!
aw thank you for clicking on the video and watching ☺️ yes i’m still in love with the larger 12.9 one, use it on a daily!
This was super helpful. I’m also on the petite side and I’ve been so confused on which size of iPad Pro to get. Thank you so much 😊
Thank you Kemmieey! Glad it was helpful 😊
@@EggsandPotatoe for drawing, should i get the 12.9 inch or the 11 inch? Im using one to draw and I feel like I would want a bigger space.. but its a bit more out of my parents budget especially when i need to get the apple pencil T~T help me...
@@sunnyxp4681 for drawing 12.9 would be wonderful! but def can make 11 work too, esp when you get used to it. You should try both, can always return one before the return date ;)
@@EggsandPotatoe yeah :') I used to draw with a small samsung tablet with my fingers. It was slightly smaller than the ipad mini but i still made great art on it tho :D so either one would be more than enough
ive been wanting to upgrade my ipad air to a pro 12.9 and after watching all the video i could find on youtube, this is by far one of the best video comparison. Though i am not petite, lol, the ipad pro feels so much better in my hands when i went in person to check. Thank you for this video! will be upgrading to the pro 12.9 soon
Thank you @din0saut367! glad your enjoyed the video!
Great video and explanation. I’m thinking about getting this iPad because of more writing space for note taking. I have petite hands as well.
thank you Treal! yes writing space is one of the biggest reason for me to use this daily ~ but never too big for us petite ones 😁
Commenting for the algorithm. You deserve it. Great work!🙌
LOVE
I rarely comment on videos, But I am here to tell you that after watching 10’s of videos for comparisons between 11 and 12.9 and I was 1 click away from buying the 11th version (M1 Or M2). After watching this video, I totally understand that I was wrong about 12.9 and its exactly what I am looking for which is Learning, Productivity and Multitasking. Thank you so much for this great content 👌
Thank you Mohammad! 😄 Glad to hear it was helpful!
@@EggsandPotatoe It was super helpful, and I just got my Ipad 12.9. I am very happy. Thanks a million to save my time and my potential future productivity ❤️
I purchased the 12.9 base model M1 a couple weeks ago, I haven’t touched my MacBook since except to power it off. I just do simple web browsing, email and media consumption heavy on TH-cam. This tablet does everything I want to do.
Amazing~! totally can relate
Thanks for the review. You convinced me to keep my iPad Pro 12.9. You addressed sooooo many issues I had r/t not being as productive with the pro 11…. The split screen being so uncomfortable; multitasking not as effective etc etc. i didn’t realize other people had the same issues as I, nor would I have realized others wanted the same thing out of adding a bigger ipad in my efforts to increase productivity. Thanks for the video!
Thank you - love your comment :)
Thanks a lot for this, very helpful! :)
Thank you DhampireGirl12!
This made it to my timeline, FINALLY! I have small baby hands huhu thank you for this!
LOL yes team small baby hands! I'm doing a video on the Apple Watch Ultra next... the big watch on our small wrist.. lol stay tuned!
I can’t afford any of them but it’s nice seeing others with BOTH!!! I want one 😭
This is honestly the best review I’ve watched about 12.9 vs 11. I like how you took a different perspective (rather than being techy) and provided points on why the 12.9 is so good. Thank you ❤
Thank you so much - means a lot to me
I'm starting to save for an ipad and I've been torn between 11 and 12,9. I'm rather short and have small hands, I don't travel but I like the idea of being comfortable to carry around, like on the couch, bed, deck. But I'm an artist and want to start with digital and the 12,9 as I understand is the same size of a A4 paper so it's more convenient for drawing so yeah 😅
I'm with you! You might like the 12.9 more for those reasons :) my rec. is if you have the funds, try both out (return one & try another size and decide which one you want to keep!)
Amazing and informal video!!!
thank you Cheq! love your positivity - stay tuned, more to come 😄
12.9 iPad pro is awesome. Once I started using it I never looked back. Magazines look great and HDR content looks awesome.
Yess totally agree! I still use it everyday and it is a huge part of my productivity & almost for every single one of my projects and ideas, I start with the iPad :) dont think I can function without it now
Can you please clear one doubt. I continuously use goodnotes 5 app and I find the draining faster. Is it normal? Does goodnotes 5 app drain the battery fast?
THIS is the exact video I was looking for!!! I've been using 11 inch Ipad pro since summer 2021 and I have recently started feeling like something is missing. It's like it's too big for social media & so I tend to reach for my phone BUT at the same time the screen of the ipad feels too small for doing things that I like. I've been looking for some ways to become more productive on my ipad. THIS VIDEO has helped me so much!!! Thank you!!! WIll definitely be upgrading this year!
thanks asta - glad this helps!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts 😊
Thanks for watching!
Great improvement from previous videos!
Thank you @Geyzson! happy to hear you watched the previous videos to compare :) I just posted a new Apple Watch review video today. Curious to get your thoughts on that one too! Here it is: th-cam.com/video/LNRKRB5vNLw/w-d-xo.html
I watched so many comparisons before getting my 12.9 inch it was disgusting. Almost all of them were terrible. This video however, is 10/10. As all of the reasons you gave are the reasons why I love my 12.9 inch over the 11 inch. Which I didn’t hear in any of those other videos. Keep up the great work. Your little quirky edits were also great.
Thank you Thomas - love your comment! This made me want to make more videos - stay tuned, more to come!
awesome review…. you really pointed out deal breaking user experience….
Thank you Umang!
I’m going for the pro 11 today at apple. I have a MacBook 13 inch so 11 inch is just fine for me. I have large hands and I am an artist also. Good comparison.
this video made me decide what i wanna get. thank you so much! 12.9" it is
Thank you Ada! glad it helped you decide~
I love how the two reviews i see are the biggest ipad in tiny hands and the ipad mini in the hands of a giant.
LOL
Great video. Really helpful. Maybe make a video while using it doing task especially takes notes on GN5 kinda like a small vlog to see how is the experience using it in daily life of a student.
Thanks in advance
Great idea! Stay tuned, might just do this vlog :)
هذا أفضل فيديو شاهدته حول المقارنة بين الاثنييين ❤️❤️❤️❤️
أريد شراء أيباد خلال هذه الأيام و عندي المال الكافي لل 12.9 إنشا ؛ لكن كنت محتارة حول ما يخبر به بعض المسخدمين أنه ثقيل و صعب للتنقل
أنا طالبة طبّ و أهتم كثيرا بتسجيل الملاحظات و بمشاهدة الفيديوهات التعليمية مع أخذ الملاحظات في نفس الوقت لذلك سآخذ ال12.9 ♥️
شكراااا 🤍
Very helpful thank you
thank you Michael! glad to hear 😄
ipad 12.9 almost size about macbook air but it is not labtop replacement completely. So smaller one is good for tablet but if you dont have money problem You can buy all of them
One of few vids that don’t declare you need to be a “pro” to buy one of these! 😂
As an asian girl who has small hands, this video really inspired me and helped me to see are the ipad fits to me😅❤️
glad to hear 💕
The only problem with the 12’9 inch iPad is that it has this annoying blooming effect, caused by the MiniLed screen. The 11 inch doesn’t have this problem, because it has a LCD screen. But the redesigned iPad Pros 2024 with a 11 inch and 13 inch display who will be released on March would fix the blooming issue. I am going to trade in my iPad Pro 11 inch for the 13 inch iPad Pro.
I freaking love ❤️ my IPad Pro M1 12.9 Space Gray model a lot because is an better iPad to me even though I have a very small hands 🙌 and my m1 iPad Pro feels very comfortable on my hands even though is huge
O yaass me you same same, small hands but in love with our iPad Pro 12.9 m1 👯
@@EggsandPotatoe my old iPad Pro 1st generation has been replaced by my new iPad Pro M1 12.9 space gray model because is much better and fastest than my old iPad Pro 1st generation is slow and freeze sometimes even my old iPad Pro 1st generation is already broken , it doesn’t work anymore because of the messed up battery
@@EggsandPotatoe and is the honeymoon still the same today for the 12.9 ?
@@vict2805 yesss still loving the 12.9 and still don’t think i can ever go back to 11 inch. i’m waiting for the next ipad pro and will still get the bigger screen one ☺️
@@EggsandPotatoe wow, How big is the next ipad pro And when ? 😊
Fantastic video! Thank you!
Thank you
This video helped. I'm super indecisive which size to go for. But I also want to use photoshop, illustrator and animate, cuz I want to be a professional designer, illustrator and animator, but I also travel alot and love to be able to draw on the go.
I think I will go with the biggest one even if it's more heavy to travel with is still not as heavy as travelling with a laptop right?
I think I can still manage travelling with the biggest screen.
yes def much lighter than an average laptop, i love travailing with the ipad 12.9!
All questions answered and more!
☺️ thank you Frances
Great info video! Thanks! I need your help - I use my iphone 90% of the time & only use my HP laptop (junk!) for a quick Word & Excel doc a couple times a yr, would you suggest the iPad or Macbook ?
Hi Kay, great question! If you use iphone 90% of time & only use laptop for very quick use of word & excel then I would vote for the ipad for sure. I only jump to my laptop if I need to type A LOT or I need to create a bunch of slides. But for minor typing and slides or excel creation, I still like the ipad to do that - esp the 12.9! My newest video talks about how I feel about using ipad for typing & docs th-cam.com/video/uz7HYNxTHBE/w-d-xo.html Check it out :)
Hello, great video, is that good notes that you are using to share iPad screen to Mac? If so what function are you using in good notes for the screen share? Or are you simply opening the same note on Mac? Thanks for the advice and great content!
Thank you @squatzilla! yes for notes app, i am using goodnotes as one of them. To share screen on my mac, I use QuickTime Player and use the 'new movie recording' to share the ipad screen on the mac. That way, when I am video conferencing, i can share the either just the QuickTime Player to share my ipad screen or I can share my entire screen if I have to show multi apps during work. Lmk if you have other questions!
If you want to work with your ipad as a laptop work with split screen and stuf like that you should 100% go with the ipad 12.9 insh but if you are student and you wanna make your notes digitaly so effectively ipad 11 is better and don't forget your budget of money because is so important
totally agree!
I wanna do both, I will use the iPad as a laptop with the magic keyboard, but also for not taking. I will go to the university next year.
Kinda wish I got the 12.9 inch
I do have a 13 inch MacBook tho
But you can still iMessage , FaceTime , social media , etc on the iPad so technically you still have your phone
Great video, I love my iPad Pro
Thanks @akwebe04!
thank sister
any time!
7:44 Little tips for video capture on MacOS (Mac and Macbook), Cmd + Shift + 5 will bring you the screencapture menu on the bottom.
You can select the video, set a timer, select the audio source and even select the area of the screen you want to capture ;)
And it will rmeember the settings so next time you don't have to do any of that :P
love this - thank you!
Cool video I watched completely. I use 11 inch.
Thank youuu - yes 11 inch rocks too so easy to hold
@@EggsandPotatoe actually i prefer the 12 inch i just went with 11 inch because i got it for 500 new on sale.
I can relateee!!!
realistic user experiences!!!
Thank you Linh~
I have both version of the ipad, and for those who still cant make the decision which one to go, let me ease the pain for you.
I know the narrative is that: if you use handheld, you go for the 11, if you mostly use as a laptop you should go for the 12.9
But that’s not the answer we were looking for, a lot of people would like to have both options: be able to work comfortably when sitting at the table also mobility
The right choice will be the 11”
Trust me, the 12.9” felling is not right when you are carrying around, it can be a little awkward to be honest.
When i pulled out the ipad, it drawed unwanted attention cause it’s too big.
The 11 is not so small to work with, i barely notice any lack of space while working with it. And that’s come from a guy who make a living by designing stuff.
If you have more money to spend, please invest in storage and tools to help your workflow. Do not go for the 12.9
nice review Anh! For handheld yes i totally agree smaller is the way to go!
My girlfriend also has small hands and fell in love with the bigger one. She just said that it felt bigger in her hands and she likes that feeling. I say go with the bigger one and you won't want to go back.
hahah yes 100%
for 20 years of my experience, nothing beats a laptop + monitor when comes to productivity.
i agree, when it comes to heavy duty work, i use laptop/monitor too to crank things out (esp when i build slides for work)
@@EggsandPotatoe even with note taking, obviously the bigger the screen the better, since you might need to look at several materials (my materials are all in soft copy) plus your note at the same time. I think I only use ipad for ebook reading, photo browsing and some casual games
Hello, so it’s been over 8 months how are you enjoying the 12.9 inch? Do you still feel that it’s the better option? I’m a PT student and would love your updated input. Thanks a bunch!
Hi August, that is such a good suggestion!! Stay tuned for the 'Is it still worth it' video! :D
I am also tiny but chose 12,9 because i am replacing my laptop, i wanted kinda a laptop ipad hybrid
Yass :) you and me both! I just did a 6+ months ipad 12.9 update :) in case it's interesting to you: th-cam.com/video/uz7HYNxTHBE/w-d-xo.html
I didn’t hear you mention, Which GB did you get for your iPad. I’m considering the 12.9 I’m just thinking about how much space would be suitable.
Which gb do you have for your iPads ?
i got the 128 gb, and is a good size for me since i mainly take notes. If you like creating bigger files and have everything saved in the ipad, then the bigger sizes could be easier to manage!
@@EggsandPotatoe I did purchase my iPad 12.9 512GB. I’m absolutely in love either way it. Your video did help with my decision making.
How’d you get the PiP for TH-cam? This video convinced me btw :)
Thanks Joe! :) What's PiP again?
@@EggsandPotatoe Picture in Picture mode! I noticed you had a miniature sized TH-cam video playing at one point.
@@mcjedwardsOh! it works once you pressed play on the video and then swipe up (like you would when you are trying to go back to the home screen of your ipad) then it would automatically be in PiP. you do need to make sure you pressed play on the video first and also make sure your youtube app is up to date and same with your ipad. This worked for me a while ago automatically
I will buy an ipad pro 12.9, but I have concerns about carrying it, is it too challenging when commuting to school? I'm a university student too, I'm stuck with 11 inc, but 12.9 is a must for me as I will do more digital design and drawings. And do you think 128gb will be enough?
Another thing I'm curious about is how long does the battery last? Does it close the day in active use
The storage really depends on what you will use your iPad for. But considering the relative price of the 256Gb upgrade to the price of the 12.9 iPad, it might be worth it to upgrade. Keep in mind that this iPad is compatible with external hard drives if you do opt for the 128Gb.
good question! even though 12.9 is not most portable, i usually carry it around without a case if i’m in doors (&in my bag if outdoors) so it is not too heavy for me. it depends what is more important for you, portability or use 🙃 since i don’t walk around with my ipad too much and i want to get more done, 12.9 was an easy winner for me. and 128gb is working well for me since most of my digital notes are saved in the cloud. but if you plan on saving lots on your device the next gb up doesn’t hurt too 😄 battery life is quite good, i usually do charge it the morning cuz i use the ipad to watch youtube at night to fall sleep so i use up at least half battery each day
@@hyrise76 so true about the external hard drives , makes it so easy 🙃
@@EggsandPotatoe Thank you very much for your responses. I bought 12.9 iPad Pro 128GB. I'm glad I bought a large size, the screen is great. It is not difficult to carry. I made the right choice and I am very happy. i love your battery because i only charge it at night but at the end of the day the battery is still half full that's great ! ❤️👍🏻😋🥳🥳
Hello
Can you tell me how to play Genshin Impact from the keyboard?
Or will it be possible only with a joystick?
😅 good question - i wish i knew how to play Genshin Impact
Hello, just curious what writing app are you using? Thanks 😊
I was using GoodNotes in the video. but I also like using CollaNote (free) and Notability if you like voice recording while you take notes :)
I have same iPad pro 12.9 inch. I continuously use goodnotes 5 but I think my battery is draining fast. Will you please tell is it normal. I continuously use goodnotes for 4 to 5 hours and battery drains from 100 percentage to 40. Is it ok or any issue
Next year I will be a university student of criminology and I want to buy just an iPad, without computer. So I will be using the iPad for note taking with the Apple Pencil, and I will buy the magic keyboard with it. Should I go with the 12,9 inch or 11 inch. And if you say 11 inch is perfect, should I go with the iPad Pro or air?
If the iPad will be your go to with no computer, 12.9 might be better since the extra space might make you want to stay on it more to do more (for me, I like to use the 12.9 more than the 11 inch). Lmk what you end up getting and how you like it!
Hi! I want to have the 12.9 but i have some questions please help me. Does it hard to carry? Does it feel like it would bend easily? When taking notes your hands rests on screen so does that bother you? Is it exactly the A4 paper size?
Hi @aliciapark6241 sure happy to help! For carrying the 12.9, I usually take it with me via my backpack where I put the ipad and my laptop, pretty easier to carry around. When I walk around, since i dont put a case on my ipad, it is very light and easy to carry around for me (but i would be extra careful if I am walking on hard floors). I think it can bend with lots of force, but not via natural use. Mine has not bend, however, i do have small dents by dropping and hitting objects in my room like chair legs, etc. Writing with my hand resting on screen has not bothered me. and for paper size, I think for the notes app you use, you can choose what type of 'paper size' you want, but i haven't compare the screen to real paper yet, but you can prob find out by looking up the measurement online. hope this helps!
Hey! Can you tell me how you use picture in picture in youtube on an iPad?
Have to make sure it is on in settings
usually it works once you play the video and swipe up from the bottom (like you would when you are trying to go back to the home screen - you do want to make sure that you pressed ‘play’ for the video before you do this). if it doesn’t work - there might be some setting that you might need to do first or make sure you have the latest version of the app and your ipad is up to date. it just started working for me one day years ago
Aw I see. It doesn't work for me on TH-cam so that's a bummer!
I need an iPad to write notes instead of regular paper and I often use it when I'm out, is having an iPad pro 12.9 a good idea? At home, I usually use my laptop
The 12.9 from 2018 is the same size as a full sheet of paper. It’s great!
This is such a good question - If you like taking notes on the go, unless you are able to drive to your destination or your commute is super safe, I'm not sure I would rec. taking ipad with you all the time on the go. (esp with the 12.9 inch, unless you have big hands cuz it is harder to hold at times) E.g., I usually take notes with the ipad when I'm at home. As much as I would love to take my ipad 12.9 to the office to take notes, I don't because I don't feel safe having an ipad on me while on public transit for both safety and I might crack it by bumping it to places (I don't use a case lol).
This is very true, I feel like 12.9 feels better than writing on paper cuz is so easy to erase/edit & have an infinite loop of papers!
Hi , May I ask what storage size did you consider? I mean 256 , 512, 1 or 2 G?
TIA. Cheers
for the 12.9 i got the 128gb (thinking about upgrading to 256), the ipad air i got the base model 64
我也喜欢12.9寸！
谢谢! glad you like the 12.9! 💖
Hand size doesn’t matter, what you use it for does. The smaller one feels right for my delivery business idea, restaurant or food truck. The larger one feels like I should be writing my book with it.
totally agree the smaller size would be great for restaurants, food truck and portable needs! :)
Best Review for me so far, you also explained the capabilities of the Ipad, Which is nice have it.
Thank you @JonHizon!!
I don’t use much of multitasking and I use the iPad Air 4th gen so should I get the 11 inch iPad Pro?
ahh in that case, I would keep the Air 4th if you mainly use it for entertainment. Personally I can't really tell the difference for air 4th and 11 pro for normal browsing/entertainment use
I wish you a beautiful day like your soul 😘
Thank youuu Ahmed! you too!
I am thinking to 12.9 for iPad Pro
what did you end up deciding on? 😄
I chose the 11 inch
Do you use your iPad as your main computer? Just curious
I use my ipad almost always on weekends and evenings. It is my go to for my personal entertainment and personal projects. It gives me joy to use the laptop instead of laptop (laptop reminds me of work, while ipad makes me feel like i'm having fun). But for work work like for building slides or writing essays, then I would use my laptop
I would like to buy the Ipad pro 11. But it is too expensive.
And did you consider getting the Magic Keyboard 😊
though i did not get the iPad magic keyboard, i do have the detached magic keyboard and mouse for macbook :) Since we still cannot use iPad like a regular laptop out of the box quite yet with the apps limitation, i prefer to use the iPad as is (without physical keyboard most of the time unless i’m planning on typing a lot)
Hi i don't have any ideas about iPads coz i never owned one, so now im considering to buy for my schooling, it's embarrassing to ask this but do you install applications for free? Like the apps for entertainment? Like youtube,facebook,instagram or messenger? Hope u answer this,thanks
Hi Devilla, no worries at all! Some of the applications are free (some comes with the ipad and some you can download for free via iTunes), Some of them I do pay for it like the notes app that I use (e.g., GoodNotes). When you click on the iTunes app to search for other apps you are interested in, it tells you if they are free or how much they cost :) hope this helps!
Im confused on choosing between 11 inch or 12.9 inch. I am going to go for nursing degree and I was wondering if 11 inch would be better for note taking or 12.9inch. I do have MacBook, to do my assignment. I am getting an Ipad just for note taking and I am petite, and I would like to use the iPad where ever I can.
Same
If you plan are taking heavy notes & multi task, 12.9 is good since it gives you a big space to write and draw out the things you need. As long as you have a desk or a ipad stand, you can take notes anywhere with the 12.9. But if you plan on running around a lot and take notes while standing up then I think smaller is more portable.
Nice ☺️👍
Ned’s a ZUGU case
How bout i just wanna buy ipad only for play games? For u which one do u prefer for me to use? 11" or 12.9"?
That's a good question! Since I don't play much games on the ipad I may not be the best to comment :) but based on the size, if you play by holding the ipad for the game, I think the smaller size might be more comfortable to hold. But if you plan on using a controller to play then I think the bigger size display, color and everything is much better!
Can you please expand about how to use/start the Whiteboard example?
hi Judy - i first connect my ipad to my mac via wire connector then i use QuickTime with the ‘new movie recording’ option you can then select to pair with your ipad. from there i use my notes app to write. so when i share my whole screen, people can see what i’m writing in my note pad. I’ll prob will create a video on how i use my ipad pro for work from home, stay tuned! 😄
I got a 2018 iPad Pro 11 inch, will switch to a 12.9 pro next generation
Do you think if I go for the iPad Pro 11 or 12,9 from 2018 it wil be good for school? I’m a little scared cause it’s one from 2018.
yay~
@Oliwaaa Good question - I think it depends what matter most to you, size/space or specs, etc. If you care more for space then yes def worth it. If you care more for specs/speed, etc. than not sure since I have not played with the 2018 one to know the difference. But I'm sure its still great!
I really just need it for the art, I need a large amount of storage.
ipad 12.9 is amazing for art 🎨🖌️
@@EggsandPotatoe thank you. I've decided this is the one I'm gonna save up for.
12.9 is difficult to carry around
Would you recommend 128gb or 256gb for the iPad Pro 12.9 M2?
Hi Kiki, depends how much you use storage on the ipad. For me, it has been good with the 128gb since I don't take too many photos or videos on the ipad. When I do edit videos on my ipad or take lots of notes, i have been good with the 128gb since it still gave me enough storage to easily sync files across devices & take bunch of notes without worrying space. But if you plan on downloading lots of files or saving your work on the ipad, then more gb could be better so you don't have to mange storage too often.
Do you think the 12.9” is too big to carry on the go? Portability is one of the reasons I was leaning towards the 11”. I do feel the same of wanting to get off my phone since its screen is too small for my productivity needs.
Update: Ended up getting the 12.9"! I was able to get a really good deal on it open box at BB when it went on sale for $899. The 11" was available at a bit cheaper price compared to my open box so I ended up deciding that the 12.9" was more of value (bigger screen & miniled). I thought the 12.9" was big at first but I eventually got used to it and now see other iPads being too small, especially for media consumption. Still though, if it wasn't at a similar price, I probably would've picked the 11"
it isnt that much bigger might aswell get the 12.9. for school just buy laptop. theres a lot of limitations and incompatibility issues. if u plan to do digital notes then yeah go get it but you would still need to use a computer since ipad can only so much for real school and work jobs. ipad and tablets arent meant to replace laptops esp ipads pros. if your on tight budget get a laptop it would serve you well for school. if you have a laptop then buy ipad for your leisure
hi Kyeori - For the 12.9 - I purposely do not put a case on it so it is much lighter to hold and I feel it is still quite potable like the 11". But when you want to hold on to it for a long time without putting it on a table or leaning it against something, then yea it can get a bit heavy after a while (unlike the 11" which is still light enough to hold without leaning it on anything) Hope this helps!
@DeymSun Well said and I totally agree! Ipad is nice but it still doesn't replace the laptop because of the limitations that the iPad has
@@EggsandPotatoe dont you think here is a strong case for ipad air if we take into consideration the high price tag of i pad pro 11 inch as compared to ipad air which actually is an all around device that offers best features of all ipads in one device
@@relaxingvibes1293 O yes 100%! exact reason why I got my parents the iPad Air instead of the pro since they only need the basic functions for entertainment
only one question . why should i choose i pad pro over macbook air or macbook pro
I love this question @relaxing vibes - I'm thinking about doing a video for this comparison. Will keep you posted if I do!
@@EggsandPotatoe looking forward to it
Is the 12.9 inch still comfortable to hold and move around?
Hi Jason - I still do not use a case on my 12.9 til this day lol so for me it is pretty light and easy to carry around the house. But 12.9 overall is not the most comfortable to hold if you plan on using it while holding it. I usually put it down on a table or on my ikea stand whenever I use around the home
