I purchased the iPad 9 and returned it for the IPad 10 in pink with 256gb and I love it! Yes, I know I could’ve purchased the iPad Air but the color won me over!
I’m just gonna say, when the iPad Pro M2 came out, I went and bought myself an Open Box IPad Pro 12.9 2020 for 400usd, because I’m a smart person. It has the perfect amount of processor speed and ram, not under or overkill, great 120hz display, and its almost 3x less the price. I just received it in the mail today and I’m in love, and also very happy that my pockets aren’t hurting.
Looks like a good idea to save funds. However, don’t the M1 and M2 have a much brighter and higher quality screen and can connect directly to a high end monitor like the Studio Display via thunderbolt? So for an artist or content creator this has a lot of advantages. Personally I’d buy an 11 in but my old 10.5 does just fine for me as it has superb speakers, 600nts, 120hz and pro motion. Portability is my main requirement plus using the pencil on odd occasions. My son has a 12.9 plus Magic Keyboard and it weighs a ton. My Acer Swift laptop is lighter, has a great keyboard and only cost me $250. I know my sons ‘showboat’ M1 2TB cellular 12.9 plus his keyboard cost more than my 11 year old car is worth. At least I could use my car to drive to his place last weekend. His Apple 12.9 doesn’t have any wheels….
i bought the 10th generation ipad standard, i didnt even consider any other options other than the ipad air 4th generation with the same chipset as the 10th generation, so i cant lie im happy with the decision of that i have made
The new iPad 10th generation is a fantastic device. I bought it in blue with 256 gig and it performs excellent and it is the sturdiest of the iPads. I love the double glass screen and centered front facing camera. Bluetooth 5.2! This is a great upgrade to my iPad 9th generation. I tried the iPad air 5th generation and I actually liked the iPad 10th generation better.
I’ve got a yellow iPad 10 and 1st generation Apple Pencil recently for my birthday a family present upgrade from the iPad I got 10 years ago and I love it it’s a good price for what you get too I think
Since this is an entry level iPad and I just upgraded from the previous entry level iPad and I already have the first generation Apple Pencil, I’m glad I only had to pay around $10 for the adapter instead of $129 for a new Apple Pencil. It all made sense to me and my wallet 🤷🏾♀️
I agree with you 👍. I am too going to buy iPad 10th generation because I already have 1st Generation Apple Pencil plus the adapter. The only cost for me, will be the iPad. Huge upgrade for me from 6th generation ipad 🤪🥰
I had a 10th gen iPad th-cam.com/users/postUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA . Felt it getting pretty slow at times even after doing a reset. So I am using that as a tablet for my 5 year old son and got this 9th gen version. MUCH faster, a little slimmer, smaller bezels, all around a leap forward. Plus, for the price that’s about $130-$150 cheaper than a current new model this is a nice deal. I look forward to the M-series CPUs coming into iPads which will really help future proof these tablets better but these latest CPUs are pretty strong and should do better to last several years with no compromises.
I got the ipad air with m1. Not because i need the processing power but i think it will be supported much longer than ageing a14....and the price was just slightly more.
I just brought the M2 iPad Pro . I’m an illustrator. I upgraded from my 2018 iPad Pro and I am staggered by how much better it is than my 2018. It is a night and day difference and I feel that most creators on TH-cam are comparing it to last years iPad Pro rather than older iPads. I just wish I had updated sooner but I didn’t as most TH-camrs said the 2018 is just as good as the new iPads. I think it depends on what you’re using it for - if you use Procreate I totally recommend updating.
Illustrators gain the most out of this new iPad the hover function (which, admittedly, I was dismissive of at first) is really useful for you guys. And of course the M2 is leaps ahead of the 2018 model, it's 5 years of technology. I think a lot of youtubers tell you to stick with the 2018 model because it's fine for day to day tasks and most basic apps run more or less the same.
Could have spent $20 more on a refurb 4th Gen Air which has the same processor, and received Pencil 2 support, faster USB-C data transfer, P3, fully laminated display.
Yeah if you own an older iPad 7th Gen and have an old Apple Pencil then need to buy a new Apple pencil for another $129 for the iPad Air 4th Gen? And fully laminated display means you need to replace the whole display if it is cracked and it’s kind of expensive to change vs the non laminated display which is cheaper to replace once it is cracked and don’t need to replace the whole screen, meaning you’re not the target audience of this iPad
@@jaysonrobles25, Before, I was sure to buy the iPad 10 as soon as it was ready to go in my country, but it might take some time, and throughout the days I’ve been watching many vids from many youtubers complaining about the same, non laminated, no Apple pencil 2 support, and so. I was truly doubting then, weather I should buy a refurbished older iPad, or this new one, though I don’t care about the screen “problem” or the “not support of a better pencil” that I don’t even plan to buy either of them. So, having a newer iPad, that is gonna get support for more time than the refurbished ones, many similarities with the current iPad air, but cheaper, and right exactly the color I wanted, your comment just helped me to finally stop thinking about the “downsides” of the device and take it.
With respect to the non laminated display, its an institutional client thing. The volume EDU and GOV purchasers generally prefer ease of repair. Front glass without replacing the LCD is a lot easier to do. And cheaper. The design of the 10th gen isn't for us, it's for them.
True and I’m sure the new repositioned web cam is welcome. I did a call on my iPad 9 from my Uni today and even with Center stage it looked like I was watching the World Cup soccer on my laptop as far as my student was concerned…
Good thing about ipads is it doesnt matter what one you need/want. They last so long. Im still using the ipad pro 10.5 inch and its still great. Battery goes a bit quicker but apart from that its still a great ipad.
@@ryanduffy5887 no my battery is still pretty good for it’s age. It’s not bad enough that I need to replace it. It still lasts about an hour and a half. My issue is it was getting so slow! Mainly when I browse the internet.
Dunno why we can't have the cool yellow color on the Air or the Pro. I just want a yellow ipad, but compatibility with gen 2 pencil, is that too much to ask? Apparently yes.
I just bought the Pro Gen2 for my wife, it hasn't arrived yet as we are waiting on engraving and she won't get it till the 24th of Dec. I can't wait for her to get it because then I get her old 9.7 Pro. I think it's fair to say the move for my wife from the old to the new will be mega and I intend to trip it out for her, I'm a PC guy and I only have Apple hand-me-downs and is good that finally Apple is learning to play with the other kids. USB-C is what I'm referring to here, it's a start. I can't afford to be chasing down the latest model devices every year so I can't wait to see my wife enjoying her new Ipad Pro Gen 2 because it will bring her a lot of joy, she still loves her old one and uses it every day, if she is happy I am happy too.
well, in italy the 9th costs about 410€, while you can get the new 10th gen by 560€. Maybe in US the prices dont make sense, but in europe it was kinda not a big deal
A year later, they’ve dropped the price… I just bought one with 256 GB for $449… it’s perfect for me, I basically just web browse, watch videos & tv, shop, message and FaceTime… I love the blue color and the matching folio cover, however it doesn’t seem to be protective enough so opted for a zugu case.
Patrick, this is the educational iPad. The reason why they did not laminate the screen was because that if the screen breaks that means you have to buy a full screen, not just a glass which is what happens in the educational market. Also, the iPad pencil series one sold tremendously and would cost a lot of people a lot of money to buy another one, so Apple figured they reuse what they had for this market. I believe this was all for the educational, the kids, although the price has gone up.
Hi George, you're not the first one to comment that about the glass and it makes a lot of sense. But I do think Apple totally priced this iPad out of that market. It sits at a very awkward place right now.
Price today at Apple website is $409 not 449. They reduced the price by $30.00. I was about to buy the refurbished iPad Air 4th gen at Apple website for 469 but purchased the 10th gen instead because of the reduced price plus I traded my 5th gen iPad for $65.00 so I only paid 365 more or less.
The iPad could just support both generations of pens. Not having 2nd Gen pen support is a deal breaker in my opinion. Just get the 9th Gen at that point.
I typed (and experimented) with this iPad and keyboard at the Apple store the other day and liked it much better than the Magic keyboard design. I wish they made a keyboard like this for the Air and Pro, along with landscape camera.
Im torn between a iPad 10 or a Air 5, all i need it for is drawing and writing for study. I wish the 2018 iPad Pros would be more affordable 2nd hand, but it doesnt seem to be worth it and better go for a new Air 5 instead. And what i would do as well, but its by far not needed: using the iPad for watching movies, browser, youtube, probably editing photos and with a low chance gaming, but not anthing demanding. I really like the anti reflective and laminated screen of the Air 5 and at least P3 color space, not so much the missing HDR support.
Lets not forget that the magic keyboard for the 10th gen iPad has no backlight. For me, the backlight are more essential than the rows of multimedia keys (i own a Brydge Keyboard for my 7th gen iPad, and I noticed that i rarely use these multimedia keys, but the backlight is very important). Also, as mentioned here, the old magic keyboard sits better on the lap, which makes it more like a laptop. Thanks for the video, great work as always.
The new keyboard folio is a straight up copy of a Surface Go or Pro with some of the drawbacks of a kickstand design. It's a lot lighter than previous folios though. At a little over $400, I would still get the iPad 10th gen over the 9th gen because it'll be supported for longer. It's a much larger stretch to an iPad Air.
I have ipad 10 gen and i am fully satisfied with it laminated screen is not noticeable and if you are planing for taking notes then air 5 is good option ❤
I have the iPad Pro 3rd Gen….with no plans to change until this one $hits the bed. I’m getting very concerned about Apple’s business decisions related to their iPads.
I got the iPad 10 with 256GB of storage, an Apple Pencil USB-C, and a Logitech Combo Touch for $680 on Black Friday. Really enjoying my time with it so far.
i am personally very excited to buy this ipad because i already have the pencil (upgrading from an 8th gen) and i don't have to waste money on an entirely new pencil. Also, I've already found alternative to the apple adapter, which i am very happy about... i feel like just like the 8th and 9th gen, this one will be great for school and university students, and at least in Europe the 10th gen is much cheaper than the Air, so we're also saving money. Thank you for this video!
Great observations as always. Sadly, I think Apple has a dud on its hands. Too many iPads and too many price points. They’re starting to lose their way with things.
❤ - great video. Thanks so much. I will either stick with my iPad 9th gen or trade it in for an iPad Air 5; it’s a much better deal with a trade in. The $449 price for an entry iPad is outrageous- definitely a deal breaker!
I didn’t even see an iPad I just couldn’t stop looking at that Apple watch ultra. Lol. I really don’t see where Apple are aiming this one, will be interesting to see how you feel about it after using it for a while.
Why is Apple always do part upgrades. They could have made the 10 compatible with the new Apple Pencil, but no, we’ll invent an adapter. Great honest review as always Patrick, thanks for giving us your opinion which I totally agree with.
I like the fact it looks like the air but not exactly the same in terms of performance. I dig the button less design and swiping on screen without that old button. Just got the iPad 9th gen for $259 on sale, but thinking of exchanging for the iPad 10th gen. Does anyone know if that’s good or does the iPad 9th gen have similar performance characteristics?
The 9th gen is still the best bang for your buck Ipad. I got mine new for $269, and sure the Ipad 10 gen is slightly more powerful in terms of processor but the A13 chip is more than powerful enough for Ipad OS. The only real difference is the camera placement and new design. Definitely not worth almost $200 more, you might as well get the Air 4 refurbished that is a better Ipad for less money at that point.
Just as a critique, the pin connector didn’t move anywhere. It was always on the bottom. The other iPads have it on the back, but if you look at the iPad Gen 9, the pin connector is in the same spot as on the Gen 10. I’m not a fan of kickstand cases for exactly the reason you mention (no lap, and tips forward), so I rather wished they had moved the pin connector to the back but perhaps this was the trade off for getting the function row keys back?
did u end up buying the 2018 pro? if so how’s it performing. i’m literally contemplating it rn 😵💫 but i’m gonna wait a month or so after the new drop in march. it’s so annoying tho coz i want a large 12+” display but i’m noooot spending 1k for an ipad. the only option i have is the 2018 but i’m scared because it’s been 6 years it’s going to soon become outdated and pointless. also i can get the 10th gen for the same price also the 2020 11” pros too. i just like the idea of a bigger screen
It would be a good iPad for a kid, but the price is no longer kid friendly. I upgraded my youngest kids device from an iPad 8 to 9 for more base storage and the camera updates for FaceTime. After trading in the 8th gen i spent $100, so that was worth it. If I still had the 8 I would not be upgrading to the 10. Hopefully this is just a temporary price bump and we will get a budget friendly iPad next year when I may be ready to upgrade my kids iPad.
Apple is doing strange things with their pricing. Same here, my 7 year old uses an iPad 9. This new iPad is definitely too expensive to be a kids tablet but not really good enough to be anyone else's tablet. Weird product.
I can tell you who this iPad was made for, people like me. I surf the web, watch videos, play a few games, use a few apps. I have never, will never use a keyboard, or pencil, I want a tablet, and that’s all. I have a 12 inch 3rd gen iPad pro, and the 4 gen air, like them both, but am thinking about switching the air to this iPad. Only because I use FaceTime all the time and really think the landscape camera is worth putting up with the slower processor and unlamented screen. But I think I will just wait to see if the next pro will switch to the landscape camera and upgrade then. But I will tell my mom to upgrade her 7th gen iPad and will do the same for my wife, because like me this iPad was made for how they use it.
I've got the usb-c to lightning cables from Airpods pro and iphone, the Gen1 Pencil came with a lightning female/male adapter so it should connect and charge without problem.
I got my brother one and he likes it, the only thing he doesnt like the battery drains a little more than the lenovo p11 plus he got but other than that he loves it. He was going to get rid of lenovo but he decided to keep both as lenovo as a backup. I myself got a p11 pro but after testing out his ipad 10 i am on the ball about getting one myself. ^^
I think that at this point apple needs to cut the SKU’s in the iPad lineup. Ditch the iPad 9, lower the price on this turd to $329, keep the iPad air and mini, ditch the 11” iPad pro, and keep the 12.9” iPad pro. The 11” iPad pro and 10.9” iPad air just have too much in common. That reduces things from 6 iPads to choose from down to 4 and draws the line for consumers on which I pad they want, need, or are willing and able to pay for.
I am a first year college student. I have been living in Taiwan for 1 year. I want to buy an iPad. I have never used one. Would you recommend to go for the 9th gen or the 10th? I honestly prefer the 10th.
I feel like this 10th generation iPad is perfect for university students. I hate both Apple Pencil 1 and 2, I prefer rectangular pens/pencils or cone-like ones (thinner at the bottom) so the Logitech Crayon USB-C was the one I picked. Hate that you HAVE to take most cases off to charge the Apple Pencil 2 or buy one that does not protect the edges of the iPad. Plus, in Europe it’s 579€ for the baseline iPad 10th and 770€ for the baseline iPad Air 5 (600€ for a refurbished or used iPad 4, so it’s not really an option here). I actually got it for 470€, and as a senior engineering student I don’t mind the non-laminated screen. Sooo given that the iPad Air 5’s cheapest price I found was 670€, I preferred saving myself the 200€ for differences in specs I won’t even use, as for my heavy duty programming and 3D software I use a huge, heavy and expensive gaming laptop. Sooo honestly, if you’re like me and will use it for note-taking/ scheming, like the new colors/camera placement and hate magnetic charging, the iPad 10th gen+ another usb-c supporting stylus is not a bad choice 😁 Hope my intake helps!
Hey buddy I wanted to upgrade from ipad 6th gen... Should I go with ipad 9th gen or 10th gen As I am a student ...so my major work with it would be note taking and watching online classes. Also, how is the note taking and battery related experience in ipad gen 10? Lasty,should I save more to buy ipad air 5 or go with ipad 10th gen?
@@jayanshusharma6792 hey! The battery was obviously better than the 9th gen, but I didn’t see much difference in the display besides that it is bigger and thus makes it easier to take notes. Also, if you value aesthetics, the iPad 10th gen does look like the newer iPads, the iPad 9th gen looks a bit dated. So I guess it depends if you value those things or not… Hope this helped!
@@aixavilatte Thanks mate!! Actually I am using 6th gen so i kinda want an upgrade from this old design... The main thing was that should I go for it or save a few bucks to get my hands on air5? I just want to use it for my studies and some mediocre music editing stuff.. So will i pad 10th gen serve my purpose well?
@@jayanshusharma6792 I do have the Air 5 now because my boyfriend gifted me one for Christmas. The main difference is probably the display, it does have a little bit of a better battery than the 10th gen and, given I am an engineer, I find it super useful to have Stage Manager to do multiple things at the same time. It is a hefty price tag though, so unless you are a heavy user I wouldn’t splurge more. I didn’t know if I’d be one at first and now it is a must for my job. So it really depends on how much you’ll use it on a day to day basis if it is worth it to splurge or not 😊
@@aixavilatte So, I will try to go for Air 5(If I will be patient enough to save more🤣),otherwise will buy ipad 10 gen. Anyways thank you soo much for helping me out to take a decision😅
Thank you Patrick. I am still driving an iPad 6 and started look at the newer iPad 9s and 10 recently when the 9 went on a $249 deal and the 10 on a $399 deal. Then the deals went away and now I'm also looking at the iPad Air gen4, which is on a deal at $499. I own an Apple pencil v1, so I was happy that both the 9 and the 10 can use it. I am wondering which one is better for the casual user like me. I'm out of memory at 32Gb, so the base model at 64Gb will keep me going for a while. I also have a 27" iMac (Older model that I upgraded to a SSD drive) and a year old M1 MBP 16". Looking forward to more of your thoughts as you use the iPad 10.
Btw, my wife has got the M2 iPad Pro and I like how the pencil works. Is it going to be more or less the same experience with the non laminated display on the iPad 10? I’m aware of the air gap, but just from a user perspective is it good for occasional note taking?
I have an iPad Pro 11" (not sure what year or gen) that supports my Apple Pencil 2 for charging. I wish I would have bought a 12.9". having said that. I'm sorry to hear the iPad 10 does not have support for the Apple Pencil 2 I don't have a business but use the iPad for drawing and casual usage. Its' hard to figure out what model is what gen and what year.
@@PatrickRambles I seriously considered the Mini 6, but decided on the iPad 9 for a variety of reasons: 1) Target user is 10 y/o, 2) Cost differential of $230.00. I was able to add an Apple Pencil 1, a pencil case, Omoton double hinged stand, male to female charging cable, Logitech K380 keyboard with Pebble mouse, ProCase, and a magnetic replacement charging cap for that amount. 3) Hopefully, the Mini 6 will be priced at ~$269 when it is time for a new iPad. Possible regrets: 1) The display on the Mini 6 is better, but I watched several videos of artists that made magnificent drawings on the iPad 9, 2) The A15 chip will outlast the A13, 3) not having USB-C. and 4) My daughter might prefer the size of the Mini 6. I hope not. That said, everything is a trade off. At the end of the day, this was an impulse buy. 🙂 I noticed my daughter really likes to draw on her iPhone SE 2020. I thought I would try to give her more options to keep drawing. I hope our tech works out for us all. 🙂
Patrick-what are those way-cool iPad stands you use in your videos, are they functional or just for display, and where did you get them? Thank you-very useful info here! Nice job 👍
Thanks for your honest review. If I didn't already have the iPad Mini 6 I might be tempted to pick up one of these because Apple moved the camera to a logical place. I don't need the pencil and I'm sure I could find cheaper alternatives to the keyboard folio.
I think the ipad 10 and iPad mini 6 is actually a good decision despite apples strange marketing decisions. For a portable music production setup it interests me, especially battery life, and powerful chipset. Wouldn’t be too comfortable taking an iPad Pro everywhere and new air heat issues and inferior battery is a deal breaker for me as I’m out and about a lot. The 10 is growing on me. What makes it difficult sometimes to decide is the relatively close price margins here in Europe.
Having the pen on the back is actually a very good solution as it works very well with cases. The tablet looks more sleek without the pen sticking on at the side
@@PatrickRambles yep, which is why I specifically mentioned it works well with cases. There are many cases which solves the problems u raised. The pen is also 'flushed' into the case nicely.
@@AK8901 I take your point, and I'm familiar with the type of case, the problem for me is that I grab and snap my pencil all the time when I'm working on it, having to peel back the case every time I want to take it or put it back isn't ideal. It's better than nothing but there must be a better way.
m2 m1 chips on ipads don’t make sense to me ipados is still very limited and there aren’t much apps u can’t use with a bionic chips if u want m1 & m2 power then a macbook is a better option to use it to its fullest
Most people forget that processing power equals longevity. The iPad Air 2 with it‘s A8X chip has been supported for 8 years. Considering this, you don’t buy an M2 iPad for the processing power alone, but also because it is going to last 10+ years.
great learning video, question: would like to buy books online, copy and paste certain paragraphs, some photos and add notes, which iPad can you recommend that is least expensive. thanks for your efforts.
Hy sir i want to buy this 10th generation because 256gb is smae as price of air 5 but keyboard is so expensive can you please tell me some other keyboard for 10th generation i am student and this my first i pad so i don't taht much about apple company or products.
I'm thinking about purchasing an ipad 10 for downloading and playing app games. It would be for light gaming, nothing heavy. Do you think the 64 gb would be fine or will I most likely need 256 gb? Thanks
@@PatrickRambles you mentioned in your video that you were disappointed that this iPad didn’t have a laminated screen,my point was not everybody wants a laminated screen, you can beat these “basic” iPads up without worrying about the screen.
@@MikeJones-oe3do At the new higher price point, I should think people care about the screen. I guess I just don't understand why the non-laminated screen is easier to keep clean?
@@PatrickRambles THIS IS 100% true. I was not too impressed with the screen of the iPad Pro 11’’ but when I saw the 12.9’’’ I WAS SOLD right away. Mini OLED screen with HDR for media consumption simply make me not feel cheated on my purchase despite the price tag. Now if I was to get the 9th gen iPad, I would not care about the screen at all but rather the value itself especially when the m1 iPad Pro 11’’ is overkill for my wants/needs.
You don't know what 3D sculpting or video/animation applications they'll develop up with moving forward. It'll be nice to have all the computing power we can get depending on how far things go.
Hi Jane! Nope. Between my iPad Mini and the M1 iPad Pro I didn't find a proper use case for it. I also find it hard to recommend it given the price point and how close it is to an IPad Air, which is objectively a better iPad.
@@PatrickRambles Thanks Patrick, I am a nerd and so I kept my pink one for , very base unit just for my piano classes and sheet music. Hubby got the iPad Air. But do love the m2 pro 12.9 and mini. Can’t wait for the mini 7.. lol IPad gluttony my dad would say. Lol
Thanks, Patrick for the information and your insight. I just bought a new iPad Gen 10 and have never used a tablet or any previous iPad. I didn't get a pencil or a magic keyboard. Unless they are extras that I must buy separately.
Hola Profesor Rambles, maybe someone who never had an ipad before could get this new iPad, otherwise, I don’t see the point. In Australia, the difference between this IPad and the air is 250, why bother getting this one? On the other hand, there are decent coffee table android tablets for a fraction of the price. For instance BlackView TAB 10 Pro has decent specs for someone who wants to browse the Internet. It is very fast, the battery last days, charges fast and has a decent screen resolution and quality. Adios, Jorge.
Let’s be honest - Apple already knows how to give us a landscape camera and the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil in 1 iPad. We just aren’t going to see it until at least 2025 🤣
I guess if Apple will put the camera on the iPad Pro on landscape it will be a 16 inches iPad Pro which the only iPad Pro that will have a proper landscape camera so you can put the Apple Pencil on the side of the iPad when it is in landscape mode based on rumors
I am happy to see you. 😂🤣 Only if Apple could combine the 10th gen with the new pro model. they would have probably the perfect tablet. The new keyboard is not much different than the Logitech for the pro model. I would not like the kickstand after using the Magic Keyboard. Even with the function keys. Thanks again for a great review. Have a great weekend.
I purchased the iPad 9 and returned it for the IPad 10 in pink with 256gb and I love it! Yes, I know I could’ve purchased the iPad Air but the color won me over!
Is the IPad Air supposed to be better?
@@Andre55923 it is. It has the M1 chip, laminated display and Apple Pencil 2 support.
The air has pink as well tho
@@TheUncleSpiderXthe colors are too muted
I’m just gonna say, when the iPad Pro M2 came out, I went and bought myself an Open Box IPad Pro 12.9 2020 for 400usd, because I’m a smart person. It has the perfect amount of processor speed and ram, not under or overkill, great 120hz display, and its almost 3x less the price. I just received it in the mail today and I’m in love, and also very happy that my pockets aren’t hurting.
Looks like a good idea to save funds. However, don’t the M1 and M2 have a much brighter and higher quality screen and can connect directly to a high end monitor like the Studio Display via thunderbolt? So for an artist or content creator this has a lot of advantages. Personally I’d buy an 11 in but my old 10.5 does just fine for me as it has superb speakers, 600nts, 120hz and pro motion. Portability is my main requirement plus using the pencil on odd occasions. My son has a 12.9 plus Magic Keyboard and it weighs a ton. My Acer Swift laptop is lighter, has a great keyboard and only cost me $250. I know my sons ‘showboat’ M1 2TB cellular 12.9 plus his keyboard cost more than my 11 year old car is worth. At least I could use my car to drive to his place last weekend. His Apple 12.9 doesn’t have any wheels….
Damn good deal
Hello, got a site, or store info?
i can imagine that you are happy that your pockets aren't hurting, thats why i chose the 10th gen ipad over pretty much anything else
Is it M1? And can it do sidecar? I need an ipad to use as a 2nd screen for my work MacBook pro
What I did was get a pencil off Amazon for like $20 - it charges via USB C so it’s all compatible aaaand it works pretty darn well
Me too 😃

I’ve got a yellow iPad 10 and 1st generation Apple Pencil recently for my birthday a family present upgrade from the iPad I got 10 years ago and I love it it’s a good price for what you get too I think
I still have a 6th generation Apple IPad and want to upgrade to a 10th Gen!
@@AnimeFreakpzYou will love the 10th Gen.
Since this is an entry level iPad and I just upgraded from the previous entry level iPad and I already have the first generation Apple Pencil, I’m glad I only had to pay around $10 for the adapter instead of $129 for a new Apple Pencil. It all made sense to me and my wallet 🤷🏾♀️
I agree with you 👍.
I am too going to buy iPad 10th generation because I already have 1st Generation Apple Pencil plus the adapter. The only cost for me, will be the iPad.
Huge upgrade for me from 6th generation ipad 🤪🥰
I had a 10th gen iPad th-cam.com/users/postUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA . Felt it getting pretty slow at times even after doing a reset. So I am using that as a tablet for my 5 year old son and got this 9th gen version. MUCH faster, a little slimmer, smaller bezels, all around a leap forward. Plus, for the price that’s about $130-$150 cheaper than a current new model this is a nice deal. I look forward to the M-series CPUs coming into iPads which will really help future proof these tablets better but these latest CPUs are pretty strong and should do better to last several years with no compromises.
5 year old son 💅💅 I'm a grown man and can't afford this
I got the ipad air with m1. Not because i need the processing power but i think it will be supported much longer than ageing a14....and the price was just slightly more.
I just brought the M2 iPad Pro . I’m an illustrator. I upgraded from my 2018 iPad Pro and I am staggered by how much better it is than my 2018. It is a night and day difference and I feel that most creators on TH-cam are comparing it to last years iPad Pro rather than older iPads. I just wish I had updated sooner but I didn’t as most TH-camrs said the 2018 is just as good as the new iPads. I think it depends on what you’re using it for - if you use Procreate I totally recommend updating.
Illustrators gain the most out of this new iPad the hover function (which, admittedly, I was dismissive of at first) is really useful for you guys. And of course the M2 is leaps ahead of the 2018 model, it's 5 years of technology. I think a lot of youtubers tell you to stick with the 2018 model because it's fine for day to day tasks and most basic apps run more or less the same.
Could have spent $20 more on a refurb 4th Gen Air which has the same processor, and received Pencil 2 support, faster USB-C data transfer, P3, fully laminated display.
Yeah if you own an older iPad 7th Gen and have an old Apple Pencil then need to buy a new Apple pencil for another $129 for the iPad Air 4th Gen? And fully laminated display means you need to replace the whole display if it is cracked and it’s kind of expensive to change vs the non laminated display which is cheaper to replace once it is cracked and don’t need to replace the whole screen, meaning you’re not the target audience of this iPad
@@jaysonrobles25, Before, I was sure to buy the iPad 10 as soon as it was ready to go in my country, but it might take some time, and throughout the days I’ve been watching many vids from many youtubers complaining about the same, non laminated, no Apple pencil 2 support, and so.
I was truly doubting then, weather I should buy a refurbished older iPad, or this new one, though I don’t care about the screen “problem” or the “not support of a better pencil” that I don’t even plan to buy either of them.
So, having a newer iPad, that is gonna get support for more time than the refurbished ones, many similarities with the current iPad air, but cheaper, and right exactly the color I wanted, your comment just helped me to finally stop thinking about the “downsides” of the device and take it.
@@antonytello27 which color are you going to buy? ☺️
Laminated display is not a good thing
@@jaysonrobles25 10 gem iPad also has way better camera system
With respect to the non laminated display, its an institutional client thing. The volume EDU and GOV purchasers generally prefer ease of repair. Front glass without replacing the LCD is a lot easier to do. And cheaper.
The design of the 10th gen isn't for us, it's for them.
That's an interesting nugget. Thanks for sharing!
True and I’m sure the new repositioned web cam is welcome. I did a call on my iPad 9 from my Uni today and even with Center stage it looked like I was watching the World Cup soccer on my laptop as far as my student was concerned…
@@andrewcrossley2448LOL 😹
Good thing about ipads is it doesnt matter what one you need/want. They last so long. Im still using the ipad pro 10.5 inch and its still great. Battery goes a bit quicker but apart from that its still a great ipad.
Lol I’m still using my iPad Air 1st generation! I use it daily! Battery not as good though.
@@8kings23 have you priced a new battery? I was tempted to get a battery to see if it got me another few years
@@ryanduffy5887 no my battery is still pretty good for it’s age. It’s not bad enough that I need to replace it. It still lasts about an hour and a half. My issue is it was getting so slow! Mainly when I browse the internet.
@@8kings23 hopefully you get another good while out of it 🤞🏻
@@ryanduffy5887 I actually just got the new iPad Pro 12.9 2022 today! I’m super excited. I’ve had my iPad Air 1st gen for years!
Dunno why we can't have the cool yellow color on the Air or the Pro. I just want a yellow ipad, but compatibility with gen 2 pencil, is that too much to ask? Apparently yes.
I just bought the Pro Gen2 for my wife, it hasn't arrived yet as we are waiting on engraving and she won't get it till the 24th of Dec. I can't wait for her to get it because then I get her old 9.7 Pro. I think it's fair to say the move for my wife from the old to the new will be mega and I intend to trip it out for her, I'm a PC guy and I only have Apple hand-me-downs and is good that finally Apple is learning to play with the other kids. USB-C is what I'm referring to here, it's a start. I can't afford to be chasing down the latest model devices every year so I can't wait to see my wife enjoying her new Ipad Pro Gen 2 because it will bring her a lot of joy, she still loves her old one and uses it every day, if she is happy I am happy too.
Loved reading this!
well, in italy the 9th costs about 410€, while you can get the new 10th gen by 560€. Maybe in US the prices dont make sense, but in europe it was kinda not a big deal
A year later, they’ve dropped the price… I just bought one with 256 GB for $449… it’s perfect for me, I basically just web browse, watch videos & tv, shop, message and FaceTime… I love the blue color and the matching folio cover, however it doesn’t seem to be protective enough so opted for a zugu case.
I have to say I love basically everything about my 10th Gen but that GOSH DARN DISPLAY is the only thing I can’t get over
is the display bad?
Patrick, this is the educational iPad. The reason why they did not laminate the screen was because that if the screen breaks that means you have to buy a full screen, not just a glass which is what happens in the educational market. Also, the iPad pencil series one sold tremendously and would cost a lot of people a lot of money to buy another one, so Apple figured they reuse what they had for this market. I believe this was all for the educational, the kids, although the price has gone up.
Hi George, you're not the first one to comment that about the glass and it makes a lot of sense. But I do think Apple totally priced this iPad out of that market. It sits at a very awkward place right now.
You are totally right about the price point
So next year once gen 9 is no longer available I wonder what will be the price on this 10th gen.
Price today at Apple website is $409 not 449. They reduced the price by $30.00. I was about to buy the refurbished iPad Air 4th gen at Apple website for 469 but purchased the 10th gen instead because of the reduced price plus I traded my 5th gen iPad for $65.00 so I only paid 365 more or less.
The iPad could just support both generations of pens. Not having 2nd Gen pen support is a deal breaker in my opinion. Just get the 9th Gen at that point.
This is what I ended up buying. It’s more than adequate. And it comes with a USB-C connection.
I typed (and experimented) with this iPad and keyboard at the Apple store the other day and liked it much better than the Magic keyboard design. I wish they made a keyboard like this for the Air and Pro, along with landscape camera.
Im torn between a iPad 10 or a Air 5, all i need it for is drawing and writing for study.
I wish the 2018 iPad Pros would be more affordable 2nd hand, but it doesnt seem to be worth it and better go for a new Air 5 instead.
And what i would do as well, but its by far not needed: using the iPad for watching movies, browser, youtube, probably editing photos and with a low chance gaming, but not anthing demanding.
I really like the anti reflective and laminated screen of the Air 5 and at least P3 color space, not so much the missing HDR support.
Get the Air. You won't appreciate the lag and the non laminated display on the 10 for drawing.
Lets not forget that the magic keyboard for the 10th gen iPad has no backlight. For me, the backlight are more essential than the rows of multimedia keys (i own a Brydge Keyboard for my 7th gen iPad, and I noticed that i rarely use these multimedia keys, but the backlight is very important). Also, as mentioned here, the old magic keyboard sits better on the lap, which makes it more like a laptop. Thanks for the video, great work as always.
Thanks Harold!
I saw UAG is selling a keyboard case for this Ipad for 139 dollars with LED keyboard lights
And you don’t want anything else but 😂😊😮
Get the new Logitech combo for gen 10. A lot cheaper and has backlight for keys.
^ I got the Logitech and it is as good or better quality than apple
For each, his own. I bought 11" M2 iPad Pro with keybord folio and pencil. Affordable difference in price will be negligable in the long run
The new keyboard folio is a straight up copy of a Surface Go or Pro with some of the drawbacks of a kickstand design. It's a lot lighter than previous folios though. At a little over $400, I would still get the iPad 10th gen over the 9th gen because it'll be supported for longer. It's a much larger stretch to an iPad Air.
I have ipad 10 gen and i am fully satisfied with it laminated screen is not noticeable and if you are planing for taking notes then air 5 is good option
❤
I'm glad you're enjoying it. But the non laminated screen is 100% noticeable. I guess it depends what you're used to.
I have the iPad Pro 3rd Gen….with no plans to change until this one $hits the bed. I’m getting very concerned about Apple’s business decisions related to their iPads.
I saw the blue one at Best Buy and wowww 😻 it's SO PRETTY! and the yellow one is ssoooo pretty too!
I've brought the yellow one 😍😍
@@simontoseland7935 periodttt!
I got the iPad 10 with 256GB of storage, an Apple Pencil USB-C, and a Logitech Combo Touch for $680 on Black Friday. Really enjoying my time with it so far.
Which color did you get your iPad 10 in
@@DrummingwithZiggy I got it in the blue color.
Is the screen worthy enough to enjoy Netflix and other social media consumption ?
I'm so confused about this thing..
The laminated issue doesn’t matter when you throw an Otterbox case on it.
i am personally very excited to buy this ipad because i already have the pencil (upgrading from an 8th gen) and i don't have to waste money on an entirely new pencil. Also, I've already found alternative to the apple adapter, which i am very happy about... i feel like just like the 8th and 9th gen, this one will be great for school and university students, and at least in Europe the 10th gen is much cheaper than the Air, so we're also saving money. Thank you for this video!
The real question is iPad 10th Gen or iPad Air 5th Gen??
Great observations as always. Sadly, I think Apple has a dud on its hands. Too many iPads and too many price points. They’re starting to lose their way with things.
I may have to agree.
They should have iPad (maybe an SE version), iPad Pro.. and mini ?
They can’t even make a stable iOS anymore.
❤ - great video. Thanks so much. I will either stick with my iPad 9th gen or trade it in for an iPad Air 5; it’s a much better deal with a trade in. The $449 price for an entry iPad is outrageous- definitely a deal breaker!
Absolutely, Carlos.
I didn’t even see an iPad I just couldn’t stop looking at that Apple watch ultra. Lol. I really don’t see where Apple are aiming this one, will be interesting to see how you feel about it after using it for a while.
Absolutely love it. My initial review is om the channel, full review will follow shortly.
Why is Apple always do part upgrades. They could have made the 10 compatible with the new Apple Pencil, but no, we’ll invent an adapter. Great honest review as always Patrick, thanks for giving us your opinion which I totally agree with.
Thank you, Tony!
I like the fact it looks like the air but not exactly the same in terms of performance. I dig the button less design and swiping on screen without that old button. Just got the iPad 9th gen for $259 on sale, but thinking of exchanging for the iPad 10th gen. Does anyone know if that’s good or does the iPad 9th gen have similar performance characteristics?
I just got iPad 10 yesterday. I noticed that IPad 10 is more powerful than Ipad 9. I got it $409 from Micro Center and I am happy with it.
The 9th gen is still the best bang for your buck Ipad. I got mine new for $269, and sure the Ipad 10 gen is slightly more powerful in terms of processor but the A13 chip is more than powerful enough for Ipad OS. The only real difference is the camera placement and new design. Definitely not worth almost $200 more, you might as well get the Air 4 refurbished that is a better Ipad for less money at that point.
10th gen isn't worth the extra money. Only iPad worth upgrading to from the 9th Gen iPad is the 5th Gen iPad Air.
Ok so I think what you’re saying is to get the iPad Air instead of the 10th gen?? Because I hate the first gen pencil..
How are you feeling about the screen, is it any good, then the one on the 9 ?
Just as a critique, the pin connector didn’t move anywhere. It was always on the bottom. The other iPads have it on the back, but if you look at the iPad Gen 9, the pin connector is in the same spot as on the Gen 10. I’m not a fan of kickstand cases for exactly the reason you mention (no lap, and tips forward), so I rather wished they had moved the pin connector to the back but perhaps this was the trade off for getting the function row keys back?
Hey yeah technically you're right. I meant they moved it to the bottom on that particular chassis, not as opposed to the previous iPad.
Apple messed it up so much, that I’m thinking about buying a 5 year old iPad Pro 2018. The price to value ratio is horrific
did u end up buying the 2018 pro? if so how’s it performing. i’m literally contemplating it rn 😵💫 but i’m gonna wait a month or so after the new drop in march. it’s so annoying tho coz i want a large 12+” display but i’m noooot spending 1k for an ipad. the only option i have is the 2018 but i’m scared because it’s been 6 years it’s going to soon become outdated and pointless. also i can get the 10th gen for the same price also the 2020 11” pros too. i just like the idea of a bigger screen
i love the new box design of this new ipad, i really do, so clean ngl, so much easier to hold as well
It would be a good iPad for a kid, but the price is no longer kid friendly. I upgraded my youngest kids device from an iPad 8 to 9 for more base storage and the camera updates for FaceTime. After trading in the 8th gen i spent $100, so that was worth it. If I still had the 8 I would not be upgrading to the 10. Hopefully this is just a temporary price bump and we will get a budget friendly iPad next year when I may be ready to upgrade my kids iPad.
Apple is doing strange things with their pricing. Same here, my 7 year old uses an iPad 9. This new iPad is definitely too expensive to be a kids tablet but not really good enough to be anyone else's tablet. Weird product.
Could’ve got the first iPad Pro 11” (2018) or a 4th Gen iPad air
Would the 10 gen be good for editing videos?
Why can’t they put 2 front facing cameras for landscaping or upright
I can tell you who this iPad was made for, people like me. I surf the web, watch videos, play a few games, use a few apps. I have never, will never use a keyboard, or pencil, I want a tablet, and that’s all. I have a 12 inch 3rd gen iPad pro, and the 4 gen air, like them both, but am thinking about switching the air to this iPad. Only because I use FaceTime all the time and really think the landscape camera is worth putting up with the slower processor and unlamented screen. But I think I will just wait to see if the next pro will switch to the landscape camera and upgrade then. But I will tell my mom to upgrade her 7th gen iPad and will do the same for my wife, because like me this iPad was made for how they use it.
Why not the mini?
I've got the usb-c to lightning cables from Airpods pro and iphone, the Gen1 Pencil came with a lightning female/male adapter so it should connect and charge without problem.
The current version of the Gen 1 comes with the adapter included, yes.
I got my brother one and he likes it, the only thing he doesnt like the battery drains a little more than the lenovo p11 plus he got but other than that he loves it. He was going to get rid of lenovo but he decided to keep both as lenovo as a backup. I myself got a p11 pro but after testing out his ipad 10 i am on the ball about getting one myself. ^^
ill be starting my illustrator journey soon and tryna save money so I should go with the gen 10 you say ?
I think that at this point apple needs to cut the SKU’s in the iPad lineup. Ditch the iPad 9, lower the price on this turd to $329, keep the iPad air and mini, ditch the 11” iPad pro, and keep the 12.9” iPad pro. The 11” iPad pro and 10.9” iPad air just have too much in common. That reduces things from 6 iPads to choose from down to 4 and draws the line for consumers on which I pad they want, need, or are willing and able to pay for.
Just give us a mini pro and ditch all but the 12.9 inch.
My problem is that my video that is taken on 4k and HDR can’t be played on iPad 10 or let me say non iPad Pro
So Patrick, are you still loving your iPad mini now in Nov 2022 ? 😊
I am a first year college student. I have been living in Taiwan for 1 year.
I want to buy an iPad. I have never used one.
Would you recommend to go for the 9th gen or the 10th?
I honestly prefer the 10th.
10 if you can.
Are you able to build a website from square space on an iPad?
I feel like this 10th generation iPad is perfect for university students. I hate both Apple Pencil 1 and 2, I prefer rectangular pens/pencils or cone-like ones (thinner at the bottom) so the Logitech Crayon USB-C was the one I picked. Hate that you HAVE to take most cases off to charge the Apple Pencil 2 or buy one that does not protect the edges of the iPad. Plus, in Europe it’s 579€ for the baseline iPad 10th and 770€ for the baseline iPad Air 5 (600€ for a refurbished or used iPad 4, so it’s not really an option here). I actually got it for 470€, and as a senior engineering student I don’t mind the non-laminated screen. Sooo given that the iPad Air 5’s cheapest price I found was 670€, I preferred saving myself the 200€ for differences in specs I won’t even use, as for my heavy duty programming and 3D software I use a huge, heavy and expensive gaming laptop. Sooo honestly, if you’re like me and will use it for note-taking/ scheming, like the new colors/camera placement and hate magnetic charging, the iPad 10th gen+ another usb-c supporting stylus is not a bad choice 😁 Hope my intake helps!
Hey buddy
I wanted to upgrade from ipad 6th gen...
Should I go with ipad 9th gen or 10th gen
As I am a student ...so my major work with it would be note taking and watching online classes.
Also, how is the note taking and battery related experience in ipad gen 10?
Lasty,should I save more to buy ipad air 5 or go with ipad 10th gen?
@@jayanshusharma6792 hey! The battery was obviously better than the 9th gen, but I didn’t see much difference in the display besides that it is bigger and thus makes it easier to take notes. Also, if you value aesthetics, the iPad 10th gen does look like the newer iPads, the iPad 9th gen looks a bit dated. So I guess it depends if you value those things or not… Hope this helped!
@@aixavilatte Thanks mate!!
Actually I am using 6th gen so i kinda want an upgrade from this old design...
The main thing was that should I go for it or save a few bucks to get my hands on air5?
I just want to use it for my studies and some mediocre music editing stuff..
So will i pad 10th gen serve my purpose well?
@@jayanshusharma6792 I do have the Air 5 now because my boyfriend gifted me one for Christmas. The main difference is probably the display, it does have a little bit of a better battery than the 10th gen and, given I am an engineer, I find it super useful to have Stage Manager to do multiple things at the same time. It is a hefty price tag though, so unless you are a heavy user I wouldn’t splurge more. I didn’t know if I’d be one at first and now it is a must for my job. So it really depends on how much you’ll use it on a day to day basis if it is worth it to splurge or not 😊
@@aixavilatte So, I will try to go for Air 5(If I will be patient enough to save more🤣),otherwise will buy ipad 10 gen.
Anyways thank you soo much for helping me out to take a decision😅
Thank you Patrick. I am still driving an iPad 6 and started look at the newer iPad 9s and 10 recently when the 9 went on a $249 deal and the 10 on a $399 deal. Then the deals went away and now I'm also looking at the iPad Air gen4, which is on a deal at $499. I own an Apple pencil v1, so I was happy that both the 9 and the 10 can use it. I am wondering which one is better for the casual user like me. I'm out of memory at 32Gb, so the base model at 64Gb will keep me going for a while. I also have a 27" iMac (Older model that I upgraded to a SSD drive) and a year old M1 MBP 16". Looking forward to more of your thoughts as you use the iPad 10.
Hey there! I actually did an update video last week on why I sold the iPad 10. That might help you :)
Btw, my wife has got the M2 iPad Pro and I like how the pencil works. Is it going to be more or less the same experience with the non laminated display on the iPad 10? I’m aware of the air gap, but just from a user perspective is it good for occasional note taking?
It's more than fine for note taking. But you will notice a difference for things like drawing.
I have an iPad Pro 11" (not sure what year or gen) that supports my Apple Pencil 2 for charging. I wish I would have bought a 12.9". having said that. I'm sorry to hear the iPad 10 does not have support for the Apple Pencil 2
I don't have a business but use the iPad for drawing and casual usage. Its' hard to figure out what model is what gen and what year.
Bought the iPad 9 for $269.00 two weeks ago. Replacing my old Mini 2 which is still working. Interestingly, the Mini 2 sold for $219.99 in 2016
Nice! Why not the mini 6? (It's my favorite iPad 😁)
@@PatrickRambles I seriously considered the Mini 6, but decided on the iPad 9 for a variety of reasons: 1) Target user is 10 y/o, 2) Cost differential of $230.00. I was able to add an Apple Pencil 1, a pencil case, Omoton double hinged stand, male to female charging cable, Logitech K380 keyboard with Pebble mouse, ProCase, and a magnetic replacement charging cap for that amount. 3) Hopefully, the Mini 6 will be priced at ~$269 when it is time for a new iPad. Possible regrets: 1) The display on the Mini 6 is better, but I watched several videos of artists that made magnificent drawings on the iPad 9, 2) The A15 chip will outlast the A13, 3) not having USB-C. and 4) My daughter might prefer the size of the Mini 6. I hope not. That said, everything is a trade off. At the end of the day, this was an impulse buy. 🙂 I noticed my daughter really likes to draw on her iPhone SE 2020. I thought I would try to give her more options to keep drawing. I hope our tech works out for us all. 🙂
2 adapters , cable, charging brick came with my 10th gen
Does the iPad Pro have a better camera and video the the iPad 10’s?
Patrick-what are those way-cool iPad stands you use in your videos, are they functional or just for display, and where did you get them? Thank you-very useful info here! Nice job 👍
Thanks for your honest review. If I didn't already have the iPad Mini 6 I might be tempted to pick up one of these because Apple moved the camera to a logical place. I don't need the pencil and I'm sure I could find cheaper alternatives to the keyboard folio.
Absolutely. The keyboard is very expensive for what it is !
I think the ipad 10 and iPad mini 6 is actually a good decision despite apples strange marketing decisions. For a portable music production setup it interests me, especially battery life, and powerful chipset. Wouldn’t be too comfortable taking an iPad Pro everywhere and new air heat issues and inferior battery is a deal breaker for me as I’m out and about a lot. The 10 is growing on me. What makes it difficult sometimes to decide is the relatively close price margins here in Europe.
0:46 how did you get the today view back
Having the pen on the back is actually a very good solution as it works very well with cases. The tablet looks more sleek without the pen sticking on at the side
I have to disagree, knocks down constantly and it's super annoying to place it on a table with the pencil attached.
@@PatrickRambles yep, which is why I specifically mentioned it works well with cases. There are many cases which solves the problems u raised. The pen is also 'flushed' into the case nicely.
@@AK8901 I take your point, and I'm familiar with the type of case, the problem for me is that I grab and snap my pencil all the time when I'm working on it, having to peel back the case every time I want to take it or put it back isn't ideal. It's better than nothing but there must be a better way.
m2 m1 chips on ipads don’t make sense to me
ipados is still very limited and there aren’t much apps u can’t use with a bionic chips
if u want m1 & m2 power then a macbook is a better option to use it to its fullest
Most people forget that processing power equals longevity. The iPad Air 2 with it‘s A8X chip has been supported for 8 years. Considering this, you don’t buy an M2 iPad for the processing power alone, but also because it is going to last 10+ years.
great learning video, question: would like to buy books online, copy and paste certain paragraphs, some photos and add notes, which iPad can you recommend that is least expensive. thanks for your efforts.
I use the Pencil HEAPS. This iPad gets a firm NO from me. And WHY does the Pro not have the camera in the new, Pro, position? Nope, nope, nope.
Hy sir i want to buy this 10th generation because 256gb is smae as price of air 5 but keyboard is so expensive can you please tell me some other keyboard for 10th generation i am student and this my first i pad so i don't taht much about apple company or products.
I'm thinking about purchasing an ipad 10 for downloading and playing app games. It would be for light gaming, nothing heavy. Do you think the 64 gb would be fine or will I most likely need 256 gb? Thanks
64GB would fill up pretty quick with games these days
The non laminated screen is much easier to keep clean, and you don’t have to worry about scratching it as much as the laminated.
What does it have to do with scratching? Or keeping clean?
@@PatrickRambles you mentioned in your video that you were disappointed that this iPad didn’t have a laminated screen,my point was not everybody wants a laminated screen, you can beat these “basic” iPads up without worrying about the screen.
@@MikeJones-oe3do At the new higher price point, I should think people care about the screen. I guess I just don't understand why the non-laminated screen is easier to keep clean?
@@PatrickRambles THIS IS 100% true. I was not too impressed with the screen of the iPad Pro 11’’ but when I saw the 12.9’’’ I WAS SOLD right away. Mini OLED screen with HDR for media consumption simply make me not feel cheated on my purchase despite the price tag.
Now if I was to get the 9th gen iPad, I would not care about the screen at all but rather the value itself especially when the m1 iPad Pro 11’’ is overkill for my wants/needs.
I am looking for a tablet and I just went and tryed out all of the tablets at the store and I want 120hz, feels much better than 60hz!
It does feel better.
Can you confirm that iPad 10 gen upper speakers have low sounds or they just dnt work? Is anyone facing same issue?
Very professional, & entertaining (not an easy thing :)
Thank you!
You don't know what 3D sculpting or video/animation applications they'll develop up with moving forward. It'll be nice to have all the computing power we can get depending on how far things go.
Which device are you referring to? Surely not the iPad 10?
Terrific video Patrick! Say did you end up keeping the yellow Ipad? TY
Hi Jane! Nope. Between my iPad Mini and the M1 iPad Pro I didn't find a proper use case for it. I also find it hard to recommend it given the price point and how close it is to an IPad Air, which is objectively a better iPad.
@@PatrickRambles Thanks Patrick, I am a nerd and so I kept my pink one for , very base unit just for my piano classes and sheet music. Hubby got the iPad Air. But do love the m2 pro 12.9 and mini. Can’t wait for the mini 7.. lol IPad gluttony my dad would say. Lol
Just returned my ipad 10. It drives me crazy with its flaw
Thanks, Patrick for the information and your insight. I just bought a new iPad Gen 10 and have never used a tablet or any previous iPad. I didn't get a pencil or a magic keyboard. Unless they are extras that I must buy separately.
Nice! Hope you like it 🙌
How did you add the dark icons? Look really dope...
My iPad 10th gen power/lock button is loose and makes sound when used…is it normal or some defects?
Might be worth taking it in.
Okay you mean to say I should push the button inside or should I visit Apple Store?
Thank you for this fine walk through of the IPad 10. Have to say though, that everything was in my box when I bought my Ipad 10, even the aadapter!!
I think it's a European thing.
@@PatrickRambles Yes I guess you are right.
The bezzels are 0.1 mm thicker than the air
Hola Profesor Rambles, maybe someone who never had an ipad before could get this new iPad, otherwise, I don’t see the point. In Australia, the difference between this IPad and the air is 250, why bother getting this one? On the other hand, there are decent coffee table android tablets for a fraction of the price. For instance BlackView TAB 10 Pro has decent specs for someone who wants to browse the Internet. It is very fast, the battery last days, charges fast and has a decent screen resolution and quality. Adios, Jorge.
Hey Doc! I agree, the more I review this tablet, the fewer use cases that make sense. One week later review coming soon :)
I bought my first iPad today 10th generation on sale for 279 so I said what the hell! And I love it it’s a amazing in silver
I have it in blue nice
I would think that if you need to use it on your lap, Apple expects you to use it in tablet mode and use the virtual keyboard for text entry.
Not sure I would agree. I absolutely hate the virtual keyboard for anything more than a quick text.
@@PatrickRambles Me to. But how often do you need to do type work on your lap? In my case when I’m my lap I’m mostly watching TV on it.
Let’s be honest - Apple already knows how to give us a landscape camera and the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil in 1 iPad. We just aren’t going to see it until at least 2025 🤣
laminated displays suck to repair, my m1 ipad pro just broken thanks to my dog and it's basically ewaste now.
The whole display module is getting replaced, it doesn’t matter if the display is laminated.
I’m a tech snob too…and it’s ok…i am having a hard time choosing which color to get…i wish it came in a 512 version
I'd love a more pro-like mini
Maaan what a year. Man to be honest I’m a little bummed about the news m2 pros.. like what’s the point of em. :/
No point whatsoever.
They should’ve rotated the Apple logo on the back too, if it’s meant to be primarily used in landscape mode
😂
Really love the video, Yoy, that trick,whatever you said about Touch ID, was so true…
Can you attach usbc Apple Pencil to iPad 10
Unfortunately the Apple Pencil Gen 2(USBC one) isn’t compatible with the basic iPad
Sketchup is pretty resource intensive, I'd get the M2 to use that
I’m not sure if, what I saw for fr really, ether way. Looks like Apple has F the camera quite on all the new models this year… including the iPad…
Thank goodness there are way cheaper accessories than the Magic Keyboard (not paying $250-300 for one) and the Apple pencil.
The yellow iPad 10 is seriously delicious lol looks so rich I’m getting one
I guess if Apple will put the camera on the iPad Pro on landscape it will be a 16 inches iPad Pro which the only iPad Pro that will have a proper landscape camera so you can put the Apple Pencil on the side of the iPad when it is in landscape mode based on rumors
Could be.
Question: The new iPad or the iPad mini?
Mini all day.
@@PatrickRambles agreed!
I am happy to see you. 😂🤣 Only if Apple could combine the 10th gen with the new pro model. they would have probably the perfect tablet. The new keyboard is not much different than the Logitech for the pro model. I would not like the kickstand after using the Magic Keyboard. Even with the function keys. Thanks again for a great review. Have a great weekend.
Thanks Steve! Agreed on the keyboard. Have a good weekend !
