As half my audience seems to love all my resolve for iPad videos and the other half wants to burn me at the stake for making so many, let me just say this will be my last resolve for iPad video UNTIL it actually gets released to the public. Thank you all for the support and watching my videos 🙌🏼
I use my iPad Pro M2 12.9 as my one and only personal computer (tied to a windows laptop at work). I love the fact that I can connect to my external 32” 4k monitor and use it like a more traditional laptop (still figuring out Stage Manager). I use my iPad for everything. Illustrations in Procreate, reading comics, watching movies, doing personal budgeting, etc. The flexibility is simply amazing. Desk work, on the couch with a Magic Keyboard or in bed without a case on. My main use for a video editor is to make movies of my kids from iPhone footage. I used to use LumaFusion, but will try to move over to DaVinci Resolve since it seems more feature rich. With the flexibility of the iPad and the power of the M2 I could not convince myself that I would benefit from any of the pros of a MacBook as a personal computing device when I upgraded last month. Thank you for this video, it was very interesting to see the differences between the iPad and the MacBook!
Resolve for iPad is a huge game changer for me! I have tried to convince myself to get to know Premiere Pro, but I was never really able to understand how a lot of stuff works. Resolve on iPad on the other hand is very powerful and easy to understand which is important to me, since I only edit small videos for perhaps a family member or so. Not knowing how an app really works is, as many can probably imagine, very inconvenient. I also like how I can learn to use the app more by watching this series. Love it! To the question on what device I would use if I had no other option: I would choose a Mac. Specifically, a MacBook Pro or MacBook Air. Of course, with iPad paired with Magic Keyboard you don't just have a laptop-like experience, you also get a tablet for drawing or handwriting but Stage Manager or the desktop apps which were ported to iPad just don't feel ready yet. I feel like all apps will always have a priority on desktop devices than mobile devices. Don't get me wrong, I have an iPad myself and absolutely love handwriting, but sometimes I just want to have a keyboard integrated into the laptop instead of paying extra for a case which just looks cool. Not to forget, the trackpad on the Magic Keyboard is insanely small and iPadOS mostly relies on trackpad gestures. To get a bigger trackpad, you'll have to pay extra again to get Magic Trackpad. On the Mac, everything is just integrated. Also, a MacBook Pro could keep performance more consistent way better than on an iPad which has no fans at all. That performance throttling is a huge deal breaker when for example rendering or just editing with big and heavy footage in general.
I’ve used Davinci resolve on a few different styles of devices. Low power laptops, gaming laptops, work station laptops and tower pc’s. Better hardware generally results in better user experience and maximizes the software but what I’ve loved about it is it works on whatever I have on hand. The fact that an iPad version is now available gives the opportunity to a person with an iPad to experience pro-esk editing software on a device they already own. Is it the best option of everyone? No probably not. But I love that it’s an option. Can’t wait to try it on Intel iPad Pro I have kicking around. Keep the iPad content coming.
Great video, I have made the switch from Premiere to resolve and this type of info is very useful. You have touched on one of my major concerns with resolve, the lack of flexibility in the screen layout. This is something I miss from premiere, it would be nice to be able to customize the layout specifically for the screen size that you were using. I would love to see your take on this issue in upcoming videos
I’m not sure how I’ve ever missed any of your videos but I’m definitely a subscriber now! Excellent content!! I currently have the iPad M1, and was debating on getting the M2 for my move from Adobe to da Vinci. but this video saved me a ton of money! The level of video editing that I do can easily be accomplished on my M1. So now I’m going to comb through your catalog of videos and bone up on Resolve😉
I’ve been following these videos pretty closely. Using Premiere on my m1 mini and teaching myself Resolve I was floored when the beta for iPad appeared. The idea of adding a new system and picking which has been top of mind. I still don’t know what I’ll do. But this video really addressed my dilemma. 😉👍
The other point to think about is that the iPadPro can also be used for multiple other applications while on-set. In places where a laptop would have more opportunities to get damaged. If it's a "one-use" item, then the laptop makes sense. But for multiple uses, especially on-set, the iPadPro makes more sense.
First off…Love the videos Michael. I watch everything you put out for the iPad. As soon as I saw the announcement for DR for iPad, I sold off my 11 inch M1 and bought a 12.9. Okay, so if the question is I could only have one…yeah I’ll go with the MacBook. But that’s not my case, and I don’t want it to REPLACE my desktop version. I’m really looking for it to COMPLEMENT my desktop version. Right now, I don’t have a MacBook at all. I have a Mac Studio, but no laptop. I had a couple of laptops over the last years, but I was home so much due to the pandemic, that I saw no need for a laptop. So for ME, having DR on iPad and the idea that I can CUT my edits, colorgrade and add titles, effects, transitions, all on the iPad…well that’s 75-80% of my workflow anyway. So why don’t I get another laptop? B/c I prefer the iPad experience over the laptop. It’s just more mobile to me. But yeah, it’s so funny that people will actually be mad that people want DR for ipad.
I would go for macbook pro: 1. double usb-c (one for charging, second for drive) 2. bigger screen - I would go for 14´ 3. muuuch bigger trackpad - one of the main advantages of macbook pro over air 4. 16gb of ram, or 32gb possibly, depending on the model 5. I just feel the new anker dock would fit better with a macbook pro :) pros and cons for ipad: 1. can use pencil 2. lighter 3. can serve as pre-edit versions 4. can be used as second screen for macbook pro
I went with the iPad Air 5 BECAUSE DaVinci Resolve by the way. My main work program is Figma, I can work with it through Safari just fine with only two main issue is that the trackpad pinch and the bubble cursor didn't change to resize mode inside Safari. Other than that I can basically do everything I can do in a laptop. I decided to go with the iPad is because I don't want to have two separate device anymore. I need the iPad for sketch and brainstorming my design so it's a must have device for me. While I already got work laptop from work, me buying another laptop for my personal use would ended up me having so many device at one time. So I decided to sold my M1 Air and iPad 9 and completely moved the the M1 iPad because Figma and Resolve exists on iPad now and I wished I had done it sooner because I never thought an M chip iPad would be this good. Note that my usecase of Resolve is not that complex, just cutting footages and arrange them, light color correction and stuffs. The most advance thing I need from Resolve is the object tracking for censoring stuffs. So it's basically more than doable through the iPad. It's great to have one device that cater to all of my needs now.
I have both and 1 point he forgot to mention and it’s a big factor is that editing on the iPad is a lot more fun. You’re more inclined to jump into editing with the iPad in comparison to the Mac.
Those Anker docks seem actually essential for an IPad Pro to somewhat replace the same functionality of a MacBook Pro in my books, at least in my day-to-day usage
Great video and opinion piece! Gives me a really good breakdown of both options available and I appreciate how you lay that out! I also liked your quick take on the Anker dongle; I could really use on those! Thanks!
I suppose it boils down to where you do the majority of your editing, maybe overruled by personal preference. Not much different in portability between a 14" laptop and a 12.9" tablet with a keyboard cover. Ports do matter though. External monitor support, along with a hub on the iPad, does allow it be used as a home studio system, and screen real estate difference between 12.9" and 14" isn't much. How valuable is using Pencil to you? I still prefer editing on a 16" MBP, but it is pretty nice to be able to edit with a lightweight, on the go solution in the iPad 12.9" that continues to increase its value in utility with subsequent iOS updates and software support. I suppose the question is whether Apple will ever make, not just market the iPad as a "true" replacement option for the MBP.
Hi, great to see the timeline performace but what about some export times? A side by side? Pleaseee;) The MB Pro is indeed a more complete machine in my opinion but the iPad 12.9 is more versatile in some cases like during a shot, since you can use as a monitor for example(with a teradek or smiliar), record or grab live stills for reference, take notes or open a script or a spread sheet amoung other things while gripped on a c-stand and the battery can old the entire shot.
Thanks for the great video! Since I already have an M1 iPad Pro, would you suggest me to buy a MacBook Pro M3 pro to edit videos with Da Vinci? Or do you think iPad Pro is going to be enough?
My primary device is the 16” MacBook Pro Max with 64GB RAM. I love the touch interface on the iPad for a lot of my day to day tasks (mail, web, zoom, TH-cam), but the MBP when sitting down to get work done.
I’m debating this right now. I have a 2017 iPad Pro as my only personal “computing device”… i.E. I stopped replacing my Mac in 2019. I do everything on the iPad Pro. I’m now looking to upgrade, but I’m finding it really hard between M2 MacBook Pro (basic model) or M2 iPad Pro (12.9, 1TB model). They’re pretty much the same price when you factor in the MK and pencil. But, I think I’ve just become accustomed to the touch screen, the pencil, the portability, the comfort of just holding it and reading an article in portrait. Also, I’ve spent a lot on iPad apps over the years for everything from photo editing, video editing and music making, and games. Most of these apps have Mac equivalents, but at MUCH higher prices, like 2-3 times the price which I would then have to buy again in most cases for a Mac. Interestingly, now that DaVinci Resolve has been released on iPad, I think this has seriously tipped the scales in favour of the iPad, because I have felt like I’ve outgrown Luma Fusion. I would still love to see Final Cut and Logic Pro on the iPad, but I think if I had to chose right now, it’s the 12.9 iPad Pro M2 with 1TB and all the trimmings. I’m also looking forward to the XDR display.
Keep making these iPad videos!!! I can't wait to get my hands on the public version of DR. Hoping the iPad will be the perfect bridge companion for travel
Thank you for making this video! I hope that one day we can edit resolve on the iPad mini. The hardest part of my workflow is organizing and culling footage. Now I can easily do that while still traveling at the same time. This saves so time and I can immediately start removing bad footage and flagging good footage right after shooting.
I think you might be asking the wrong question here: not mac vs ipad, but who is mac davinci for and who is Ipad Davinci for? Anyone who wants to get a serious video editor and already has an Ipad should consider Davinci for Ipad and especially if they mostly plan to do social media dtuff primarily(like you mentioned). It is powerful, intuitive and realatively inexpensive in comparison. Additionally it will be good as a secondary device to people who don't have laptops just desktops or want to color-grade in a touch screen experience. For anyone who plans to buy a new device and davinci resolve, it is hands down the mac or macbook plus davinci. Leaves you plenty of room to grow, the price difference is almost a wash, and you can do everything from Ipad plus a bunch of other useful things on the mac version. you may not need them right this second if you are new to editing but i think you will feel the limitation soon if you are a pro or aspiring pro.
I was just think about how I need something like these hubs . As I come into my third year of creating. I’m learning fast that. My old way of storing data is not gonna keep working. The ole 10 plus orange drives I got hanging around . Oh and don’t get me started on how many are hanging of the MacBook as we speak.! It’s getting out of hand . So I’ve been looking all through amazon to see what my next solution should be? I’ve came to my decision, and first off I need a hub, like so. Then have it send to a raid system with the 3.5 ssds. Anyway I just thought it was cool that this was one of the first things you started talking about!! Lol 😂 love your channel bro keep them coming ! I’m bout to get the iPad
Well in my humble opinion’ I would choose the IPAD PRO reason being, with the pad you can shoot hi res, and do things on the go. Especially if you have a Drone and or other remote devices, still learn DaVinci so when you do decide to get a desk top or laptop you still should be proficient, besides things happen spontaneously and you be ready to take that moment, your iPad is ready, also 3rd party apps you name it, all right there in your hands, my votes on the iPad Pro M2 535gg 8 plus on the Memory Hi Res on the cam, I’ll take my chances folks, trust me something is better than nothing, Ipackage deal sealed it for me. Hello’ Davinci
Excellent! I've just started my video editing journey. Everything I've done so far is just with iMovie which is nowhere near feature rich enough for what I want to do. I'm definitely going to have to get some training with Resolve, but from what I've seen it is worth it. I have an M1 Max MBPro with 32Gb ram, and having the full version of Resolve makes the most sense for me, but I do have my eye on a new iPad (mine is so old that it can't take new iPadOS updates.) The idea, though, of being able to use Resolve on an iPad may convince me to go ahead and get the iPad Pro. We'll see. Thanks for the videos - I'm starting to explore your back catalog. Looking forward to learning from your channel.
To dive a little deeper: iPad Pro. Cellular option is such a huge piece for me. I hate connecting to public wifi.. The screen on the iPad is also a winner for me, and lastly the ability to get comfy on the couch and use touch/gestures on the iPad to do some comfy editing is a HUGE bonus.
People like me that want Resolve on an Ipad already have it on a Laptop and in many cases also a workstation. I agree the Ipad version in most cases should not be your only version. Becouse the iPad version supports cloud projects it more of an extension of the PC/Mac version and not really a replacement. That could change as they expand on it but the beta version appears to exceed any existing Ipad Video editor.
Great Video. I like using the speed editor and if the IPad works with it as stated I would consider for at least perusing the clips and doing first cuts.
At last, we are seeing a professional app for video editing for our iPads. And I could not be more happy of this app being Resolve. I use Resolve for 90% of my video work. But when I can't get things done on my computer I grab my iPad and use Luma Fusion. Very often I export Luma's editing as XML and import it into Resolve to get things finished. One key Luma limitation is color: beyond being able to import LUTs there is pretty much nothing else we can do there. Things are changing with Resolve now! I can't wait to be able to use it.
Im using it as an on the go secondary device. It'll be nice to do a rough cut and color grade with the ipad screen, but my desktop and the desktop version has all the features I need to complete my videos.
do i have to buy 2 davinci resolve studio for both ipad and macbook pro? or I can only buy which one of it one time, and then I can install to both device?
Love these vids you’re putting out man. Speaking as a complete amateur: I enjoy the touch screen, pencil, and cellular capabilities of iPad; therefore, give it the win by a tiny nudge.
How is the battery life drain on both for a full session of editing without multitasking from 100%? And could DIT have same experience doing quick Dailies Edit at the end of a day’s shoot….
I'm stuck with the original M1 13" Macbook Pro for a while... and stuck with frustratingly limited ports...like so many people. (Honestly, Apple needs to fix its motto to It Used to Just Work!) Also been going through different hubs trying to find one that 1. Stays put (hyperdrive is awful) and 2. Has the ports I need without forking over an excessive amount for a Thunderbolt version.. It's honestly a nightmare.
I’m genuinely still unsure. A fully mature iPad app would be the way to go (I think) but what does that look like? Solid video but asks more Qs than it answers… 🙃
Am curious if Davinci for iPad keeps support for Multi-Cam editing. Lastly, I wish you could make me an happy ending of 2022 by giving me the Anker Hub. I have their Power-bank and it is a beast….
Appreciate your effort on the comparison. It is just the starting era of the ARM architecture and no one knows how it may change the tablet/laptop ecosystem in the future. It is not which one is better than the other but a supplementary to each other imho (like the introduction of cross-platform Freeform app)

I'm in the former half. Congrats on the win and keep up the good work!
Thank you 🙌🏼
Do you have a date of the public release?
And also, have you tried running it on non-pro non M series iPads?
When is this actually gonna be out ???
ist beta what you testing
Hey….You can get all the pages on iPad. Just go to your keyboard shortcuts and add the hot keys, press em, and BOOM! All pages.
I use my iPad Pro M2 12.9 as my one and only personal computer (tied to a windows laptop at work). I love the fact that I can connect to my external 32” 4k monitor and use it like a more traditional laptop (still figuring out Stage Manager). I use my iPad for everything. Illustrations in Procreate, reading comics, watching movies, doing personal budgeting, etc. The flexibility is simply amazing.

Thanks for all the iPad reviews, I've been intensely curious.
And speed of export????
I am new in video editing.
And I will first start with MBP and Resolve.
After then when I have opportunity I try iPAD version.
Love your comparison video and all the other videos on DaVinci for iPad. Thanks for the opportunity to win a dock.

Thanks for doing the videos on Resolve for the iPad!! And for the info on the Anker hubs!!
Thank you for showing the differences in Resolve between the MacBook Pro and the iPad Pro.
Subscribed! I’ll take one of those! Just picked up an iPad Pro, look forward to messing with DaVinci
Thanks for the great video! Since I already have an M1 iPad Pro, would you suggest me to buy a MacBook Pro M3 pro to edit videos with Da Vinci? Or do you think iPad Pro is going to be enough?

finally got to download resolve to my ipad today.
I just started using DaVinci on my iPad, and I found it to be a lot faster using the Apple Pencil when it comes to simple editing.
Been loving the videos about the program on iPad. Looking forward to when it finally releases.
Using the iPad Pro exclusively these days. Really looking forward to the public release of Resolve!
Great stuff Bro. Those Ankers look sweet. Congrats on winning that Award.
Very nice. Considering exactly which of these will be most productive for me on the go, cutting on DaVinci, so thanks.
Down for that Anker Dock

Also, those anker seem awesome, would love to get my hands on one of them...
Whoa, Anker docks!!! Thank you so much and congrats❤
Resolve on my M1 iPad is neat but until it’ll let me use custom key shortcuts, not going to use it much.
Why dont they just let us choose which os to use on the ipad. Mac os or ipad os.
Thanks for the info on the new Resolve for ipad. Very interesting!
Keep making these iPad videos!!! I can't wait to get my hands on the public version of DR. Hoping the iPad will be the perfect bridge companion for travel

Leaves you plenty of room to grow, the price difference is almost a wash, and you can do everything from Ipad plus a bunch of other useful things on the mac version. you may not need them right this second if you are new to editing but i think you will feel the limitation soon if you are a pro or aspiring pro.
Anger docks are cool. I like the iPad’s hybrid workflow.
I appreciate your resolve iPad videos.
I was just think about how I need something like these hubs . As I come into my third year of creating. I’m learning fast that. My old way of storing data is not gonna keep working. The ole 10 plus orange drives I got hanging around . Oh and don’t get me started on how many are hanging of the MacBook as we speak.!
It’s getting out of hand . So I’ve been looking all through amazon to see what my next solution should be?
I’ve came to my decision, and first off I need a hub, like so. Then have it send to a raid system with the 3.5 ssds.
Anyway I just thought it was cool that this was one of the first things you started talking about!! Lol 😂 love your channel bro keep them coming !
I’m bout to get the iPad
Was waiting for this vid, have both devices and am trying to understand the most convenient workflow
Well in my humble opinion’ I would choose the IPAD PRO reason being, with the pad you can shoot hi res, and do things on the go. Especially if you have a Drone and or other remote devices, still learn DaVinci so when you do decide to get a desk top or laptop you still should be proficient, besides things happen spontaneously and you be ready to take that moment, your iPad is ready, also 3rd party apps you name it, all right there in your hands, my votes on the iPad Pro M2 535gg 8 plus on the Memory Hi Res on the cam, I’ll take my chances folks, trust me something is better than nothing, Ipackage deal sealed it for me. Hello’ Davinci
Excellent! I've just started my video editing journey. Everything I've done so far is just with iMovie which is nowhere near feature rich enough for what I want to do. I'm definitely going to have to get some training with Resolve, but from what I've seen it is worth it. I have an M1 Max MBPro with 32Gb ram, and having the full version of Resolve makes the most sense for me, but I do have my eye on a new iPad (mine is so old that it can't take new iPadOS updates.) The idea, though, of being able to use Resolve on an iPad may convince me to go ahead and get the iPad Pro. We'll see. Thanks for the videos - I'm starting to explore your back catalog. Looking forward to learning from your channel.
Those Anker docks will pair really well with Davinci on a MacBook
Man I could use one of those Anker supports. Great video, I love stuff like this!!
Great video! Thanks for going into so much detail. Currently battling the decision on which device to purchase in the new year. Subscribed 👊🏼
To dive a little deeper: iPad Pro. Cellular option is such a huge piece for me. I hate connecting to public wifi..
The screen on the iPad is also a winner for me, and lastly the ability to get comfy on the couch and use touch/gestures on the iPad to do some comfy editing is a HUGE bonus.
People like me that want Resolve on an Ipad already have it on a Laptop and in many cases also a workstation. I agree the Ipad version in most cases should not be your only version. Becouse the iPad version supports cloud projects it more of an extension of the PC/Mac version and not really a replacement. That could change as they expand on it but the beta version appears to exceed any existing Ipad Video editor.
Hopefully I can get my hands on this dock
Great Video. I like using the speed editor and if the IPad works with it as stated I would consider for at least perusing the clips and doing first cuts.
I’m looking at the iPad version and not sure if the tracking feature is there. If so, could you do a wee tutorial on it?? Great info so far.
Great Video, just stumbled upon you. I would be very much interested on the Anker 😊
At last, we are seeing a professional app for video editing for our iPads. And I could not be more happy of this app being Resolve. I use Resolve for 90% of my video work. But when I can't get things done on my computer I grab my iPad and use Luma Fusion. Very often I export Luma's editing as XML and import it into Resolve to get things finished. One key Luma limitation is color: beyond being able to import LUTs there is pretty much nothing else we can do there. Things are changing with Resolve now! I can't wait to be able to use it.
Great comparison! Thank you so much for sharing insights! Like all your videos!
As an upcoming TH-camr Resolves on the iPad seems like the way to go for me and my plans with it, been waiting on this for awhile actually!!! This
Hi! Thanks for this video. I love the comparison and insights!
finally a decent video editor for iPad, after more than 10 years of waiting
Bro try to make a video about DaVinci resolve in iPad vs a windows lap or Desktop
Nice Content for an ipad lover
I have no ipad till now of course but when i have one i'll take your content as a reference , definetely
What were the specs on the iPad and the MacBook?
Im using it as an on the go secondary device. It'll be nice to do a rough cut and color grade with the ipad screen, but my desktop and the desktop version has all the features I need to complete my videos.
Does anyone know if RGB Mixer is available in the IPad version? I’m struggling to find this feature…
Hey Michael great test I love the idea of being able to color grade on the go!! Thanks!! Are you still doing the giveaway?? Keep it up cheers!
As long as DaVinci scaled terribly on the Ipad using external monitor I believe it’s a poor choice for using as the main editing device.
Love your videos! Keep ‘em up!
Need that Anker hub for sure!!
do i have to buy 2 davinci resolve studio for both ipad and macbook pro? or I can only buy which one of it one time, and then I can install to both device?
Love these vids you’re putting out man.
Speaking as a complete amateur: I enjoy the touch screen, pencil, and cellular capabilities of iPad; therefore, give it the win by a tiny nudge.
Now that you have found how to unlock all the pages on the Ipad, does this change your thoughts?
Cant wait to try resolve on the M1 iPad Pro...
I really could use this hub! Thanks!
How long until we see resolve on phone🤔
I was waiting for this video! Let's go!
How is the battery life drain on both for a full session of editing without multitasking from 100%?
And could DIT have same experience doing quick Dailies Edit at the end of a day’s shoot….
Please explain how to do portrait layout. Regular feature doesn’t really work. It applies weird frame and you cannot scale your vide to frame edges
Will DaVinci Resolve work on an M1 iPad Air? Great video!
Just an information: may I use the Studio license both on iPad and Desktop versions?
Would love to grab one of those hubs 👀🙋🏻♂️
Amazing review to great product and allsomme channel 👍
Cool video it was actually useful thanks
Great video..BTW…All pages are actually available by assigning keyboard shortcuts to revealing each one.
Yup! Made a whole video on that yesterday :)
Just waiting for them to finally release it
I'm stuck with the original M1 13" Macbook Pro for a while... and stuck with frustratingly limited ports...like so many people. (Honestly, Apple needs to fix its motto to It Used to Just Work!) Also been going through different hubs trying to find one that 1. Stays put (hyperdrive is awful) and 2. Has the ports I need without forking over an excessive amount for a Thunderbolt version.. It's honestly a nightmare.
I’m genuinely still unsure. A fully mature iPad app would be the way to go (I think) but what does that look like? Solid video but asks more Qs than it answers… 🙃
I would choose resolve for ipad, initially. Because the iPad I more versatile. And editing is actually fun and tactile lol
Am curious if Davinci for iPad keeps support for Multi-Cam editing. Lastly, I wish you could make me an happy ending of 2022 by giving me the Anker Hub. I have their Power-bank and it is a beast….
do you think it is possible to edit multicam (2x Sony A7s3) file format 4k 60p 10 bit? on an ipad pro M4 with 8gb Ram? Thx
Your review was too good I get all may answers Thank You You are way Too much Helpful
Appreciate your effort on the comparison. It is just the starting era of the ARM architecture and no one knows how it may change the tablet/laptop ecosystem in the future. It is not which one is better than the other but a supplementary to each other imho (like the introduction of cross-platform Freeform app)
