This is my first iPad, I got it as a replacement for my 2019 Intel MacBook Pro. The iPad is a great medium between a Laptop and the iPhone. With the Magic Keyboard I get the laptop, and I can just remove the iPad and use it as a tablet. Best purchase I’ve made in a while !
11 inch all the way!!! I own a 13 inch touchscreen latop asus x13 and have never used the touch screen because of how bulky it feels, inside and outside. The 11 feels so much easier to use
Am I the only one who loves the extra slim design? It’s so easy to carry around and not as much of a hassle than taking a MacBook. Plus the cellular option is awesome!
I think the vast majority of us wish they would’ve kept the same thickness as prior, and just added a bigger battery. The main reason Apple makes devices thinner is to keep the battery ‘small’, because they’ve done the math to ensure that the batteries age and wear at a rate which makes most people upgrade in ~2-3 years, rather than say ~5-6 years, so they can sell more devices… Since smaller batteries decay more quickly. I get the business needs, but it’s just frustrating given they charge such a huge premium.
I’m not surprised you are addicted to it. I’m addicted to my 12.9” M1 IPad Pro, just wish it had the camera in landscape position for Zoom calls etc like the M4 does.
I hate that the M2 Air is MORE than capable of at least having 120hz ProMotion display and they choose not to add it. Come on! Let the tandem oled screen be a pro feature, but at least give the Air the 120hz display.
@@hugotipple They'd have a lot less sales on the Pro, they know what they're doing. I was genuinely considering getting the Air also, but then I went to an Apple Store and played with it and the 60hz just pierces thru my eyes, I'm too accustomed to ProMotion at this point. I was both slightly heartbroken & disgusted driving from there, getting an M2 powered 2024 device for 599$ seemed like such an incredible deal. I wonder what would Steve Jobs' reaction would be to deliberately underclocking a device to make a different one more appealing. I want the iPad to last me 4-5 years, there's no way I'm looking at a 60hz display in 2029. M4 it is. 😃
Completely agree on the battery life. I’ve been using my iPad 13” M4 for work, including long Teams meetings and the battery just drains. Maybe 1/2 a day of work. I see both Teams and Zoom just sucks the battery.
Totally I agree with you on the 11" size, It's both too big and too small at the same time. It's too big because you can't comfortably hold and type on it, but it's too small to be productive. I ended up selling it and getting an iPad Mini for using handheld with typing, content consumption, etc and a 12.9" when working with photography and an external display for productivity on the go.
@@DavidTIB-vl2yi I have the iPad Pro 2020 it is time to get a new one. I just do not want to wait any longer so I set a goal to get it as soon as possible.
Nice review, and I agree how amazing the new M4 13 inch iPad is as an everyday device, as well as Goodnotes. I've been using it for 3 years on my iPad Mini. As for battery drain, I suspect that you're keeping the screen on full brightness. That will kill it much faster. I keep mine up to 75% brightness and it lasts the entire day.
The biggest difference between your iPad and MacBook is the 5G you have turned on. That will kill your battery fast. No one else mentions it because they dont have or use 5G
This is not true. However there is some truth in the statement. Turning 5g on or off when using productivity apps has a negligible effect on battery life…there is one popular app that will drain the battery very quickly while streaming on 5g…and everyone with an iPad watching this video has it…and its the TH-cam app…i don’t know what google is doing but you can lstream netflix, Hulu, Disney+ etc. using half the battery life that TH-cam uses. I’m not sure what it’s about, but I’ve had a 2019, M1 and now M4 iPad Pro all with Data and this has been the case.
@@BlazePasThank you for this information. So, I have both an iPad Air 5th generation with 5G and I just had Verizon ship me the new M4 iPad Pro 13” also with 5G and you couldn’t be more right. TH-cam (and even WORSE…TikTok!!) just KILLS battery life even on the brand new M4 equipped iPad Pro.
I love my iPad Pro 13 inch, and my second overall iPad since 2012. Lots to love about this device. But in reference to the note taking app you talked about Goodnotes, that thing is $14.99 a year! For that price I need a one time purchase for life.
Great video! I spoke about it in a similar video but 5G is SUCH a big deal when it comes to making to iPad a killer mobile machine. High speed connection anywhere. If they ever do bring an eSIM and antenna to MacBooks it’ll be insane.
Have the M2 12.9 and don't see the need to upgrade when it's nearly identical aside from using more intensiv apps. simultaneously. But I did come from the 11 inch M1 and I can see the argument of going back to the 11 inch. Def. was a great sweet spot; But I do prefer side car on the 12.9 more
I’ve never had a situation where my phone wasn’t seamlessly available for hotspot - the watch and tablet have never replaced my phone in terms of EDC. I don’t want to pay my carrier monthly just to connect another device for 5G usage, it really isn’t worth it (already doing it on my watch and honestly ehhh)
so funny how Apple Pencil is just now doing things that the S-pen did 10 years ago. The squeeze functions are cooler than just hitting a button tho. Apple does always come thru when it comes to presentation
Is it just me or does it also give you chills to see him using that ipad with that ring on?! If you simply touch that ring on that screen by accident or while you're making a stroke with the apple pencil you'll end up with a huge scratch on your screen
Be careful with the Magic Keyboard which, when closed, can do damage to the screen. People are reporting that left and right! Both items are super-expensive, and you certainly don't want to damage the Oled Screen.
I have the M2 iPad Pro 11 inch and it is a good device. Could you please do a video on cheap mechanical keyboard for the iPad? Since I am thinking of using it as my laptop alternative
I’d have to disagree with the size difference. My iPad 11 Pro is the perfect size. If I need to use the keyboard for something more labor intensive, I just snap it onto the logitech combo keyboard and get the work done and afterwards I get up and walk around and use it with one hand to watch youtube or or netflix. I tried that with the 13 in and the one hand hold/use was not the same. If I need something a bit bigger for a bit more labor intensive task then I just use my MacBook Air M1
Apple should’ve kept the thicker size iPad Pro to house a better battery and speakers for better bass and sound resonance. Moreover, Apple needs to stop price gouging.
I mean if you want to use it as a laptop, sure. But I prefer to use it as a tablet so the 11" makes more sense. If I want a laptop experience, the use a laptop. The iPad still sucks at being a laptop in my opinion. Just the file manager alone is a terrible user experience. Also, hotspotting onto my 5G enabled iPhone from a Mac is the most basic thing I've ever seen. It's literally 2 clicks and it's connected. And yes, it's just as fast. Not sure what you're talking about there.
Random one..i have the Apple Keyboard and for some reason when i attached my ipad, it tilts backwards and topples over. It does sit but not comfortably if that makes sense
I love the 13in immersive content viewing but can’t stand the aspect ratio it really bothers me lol 🤷🏽♂️ so I stuck with the 11 inch plus more portable
Hello, my friend! Can you please tell me what brand of strap you have on your Apple Watch Ultra? And on what website did you buy it, if it’s not a secret?😊
hello if you have an ipad pro you don't use and you would like to help us. thank you for sending it to us free of charge as we need it for our educational channel, thank you for the support 😊
There are no perfect products. 11” is comfortable in the lap. I do not like screen protectors. Keep the accessories to a minimum, certainly to start. This guy makes great videos.
I need to bitch a bit about the magic keyboard. How is it possible that every buyer of that keyboard notices within 30 minutes after attaching the iPad Pro that there’s something wrong with the balance and that Apple themselves didn’t notice this? Did they know this and sell it anyway (for 400 freaking euros??)??? This really sucks! Okay, bitching mode off: has anyone found a way to ‘repair’ this unbalance, for example by adding 2 plastic caps on the hinge? Will that work? Is that smart to do. Maybe there’s another way, maybe an extended case for the bottom (keyboard) part, so that the device won’t topple? Or something to add weight to the trackpad side. Anyone else having a great idea for this?
Battery life is the downside of Apple's obsession with thin devices. They've managed it pretty well on the Macbook Pro line, but with the iPad Pro, that thinness comes at a price.
Work and iPad in one sentence says it all… When it comes to the price there is no reason to buy this instead of MacBook Air. Too much compromises for a hefty price. I guess only addicts can justify such nonsensical purchase 😂
I like the overall positivity for the 13” M4 iPad Pro! I love mine and I don’t expect it to completely replace my Macbook Pro. Too many reviews are laser focused on the idea of replacing your Mac with the iPad. I too have been a little dissappointed with the battery life. Working with MS apps, email, and TH-cam can bring down the battery pretty quickly for me. It’s not horrible, but I definitely have to charge at the end of the day. Thanks for the refreshing content!
Absolutely agree with the 5G. Ever since experiencing cellular on an iPad, I’ve only been buying exclusively the Wifi+5G version. Not having the anxiety of not knowing if there’s gonna be a wifi connection or not, your iPad randomly disconnecting from web or hotspot tearing through your phone’s battery is a total gamechanger. Plus the most annoying part of having a wifi only iPad - when you get blasted by a ton of notifications when you finally connect your iPad to the net after a few hours of being offline - getting rid of that alone is THE reason for me to go for a cellular model for sure.
Ha, my case is exactly the opposite. My iPad is my distraction free device, for focus work - reading, researching, note-taking - so notifications are off by default at all times, and of course no need to be always connected, for browsing hotspot is more than enough. But yeah, for people who it as their main computer I can see how 5G can be so much more convenient.
Terren, so glad that you are a YT’er that I follow that is an iPad noob and on a new adventure. I have relinquished my MB Air to my wife and a 13” iPad will be my daily, and no I do not expect it to be my new portable laptop-ish device. It’s an iPad, I have owned just plain Jane iPads for years. My use case always left me wanting more iPad features on my MB Air, than I want MBOS features on my iPad. I have been flipping nickels on iPad Air vs Pro, Cell or No Cell, blah blah blah. So Thank you Terren for giving us a fresh glimpse into your iPad journey. Keep up posted.
Greetings from Australia. Love your videos. Congratulations on getting the 13inch BUT the 11inch just kicks ass! I returned my 13inch for the 11inch. So glad I did. Way more manageable. I don’t feel like an idiot taking it out of my bag when travelling on the train. The display finally gets the same quality this year as the 13 inch and its aspect ratio is 10x7 so it’s actually better when watching 16:9 content. The 4:3 aspect of the 13inch drove me nuts lol. I can easily live with the smaller screen realestate and the speakers are less loud but the sound quality is just as good. You still made a great choice with the 13 so I’m not hating on it. Just get more out of the 11inch in my use cases. Also the best part was I was able to return my 13inch 1TB for the 11inch 2TB wifi cellular version only paid $80 extra.
I did exactly the same as you…I bought the 13” iPad Pro and as soon as I got it I knew it was just not a portable tablet….so returned it and got the 11.5” iPad Pro and have never looked back. It’s just the right size … it’s portable with a great screen and heaps of power. If I want something larger to view I can link it to my Apple TV and watch movies and stuff on the large TV screen.
I have bought the cellular iPad pro 2018 and i have rarely used it, costs more and benefits who works alot outside doors, i think hotspot is more than enough.
For me it's boring. Yes, you get a bigger screen, but battery life is roughly the same. And what annoys me is that reviewers most of the time get the biggest and greatest. Doesn't matter if an iPad, the iPhone, Apple Watch or MacBook. Sure, get what you want! But too few reviewers make videos about the same apple products with the same size. Show how to use the tinier apple watch! How is it, to work with the 11" iPad? Is it comfortable to have a smaller iPhone? But at this point Terren always had the small iPads I think, so it's a completely new experience for him. And the video is still great!
If you're on an iPhone, the auto connect to hotspot makes it pretty seamless. It's frictionless enough that I always just go for the WiFi version of the iPad (apart from making my macbook seem like it's got cellular itself). I think the advantages of having it built in on the iPad is the bigger battery, and the bigger antenna (from past personal experience).

haha i've given my 13 inch air to my mother, and am going to attempt to rock the 11 inch pro. how's it going for you
Greetings from Australia. Love your videos. Congratulations on getting the 13inch BUT the 11inch just kicks ass! I returned my 13inch for the 11inch. So glad I did. Way more manageable. I don’t feel like an idiot taking it out of my bag when travelling on the train. The display finally gets the same quality this year as the 13 inch and its aspect ratio is 10x7 so it’s actually better when watching 16:9 content. The 4:3 aspect of the 13inch drove me nuts lol. I can easily live with the smaller screen realestate and the speakers are less loud but the sound quality is just as good. You still made a great choice with the 13 so I’m not hating on it. Just get more out of the 11inch in my use cases. Also the best part was I was able to return my 13inch 1TB for the 11inch 2TB wifi cellular version only paid $80 extra.
That's a lot of storage (2TB) do you recommend that amount. Is your 11" your primary computing device?
I did exactly the same as you…I bought the 13” iPad Pro and as soon as I got it I knew it was just not a portable tablet….so returned it and got the 11.5” iPad Pro and have never looked back. It’s just the right size … it’s portable with a great screen and heaps of power. If I want something larger to view I can link it to my Apple TV and watch movies and stuff on the large TV screen.
I have bought the cellular iPad pro 2018 and i have rarely used it, costs more and benefits who works alot outside doors, i think hotspot is more than enough.
I'm happy seeing you and iPad users with the 13 inch over the 11-inch! Team 13-inch! 😁
Am I the only one who prefer 11”?
Nah, Team 11” Had the 12.9 for 2 years and prefer the M4 11. It’s the mover and shakers iPad size!
@@jimtipton8888 it’s the perfect device for me! I can live without my PC, but I will not survive without my iPad Pro M4 11”.
I’m on Team 13-inch even though I’m still rocking my M2 iPad Pro 12.9.
For me it's boring. Yes, you get a bigger screen, but battery life is roughly the same. And what annoys me is that reviewers most of the time get the biggest and greatest. Doesn't matter if an iPad, the iPhone, Apple Watch or MacBook. Sure, get what you want! But too few reviewers make videos about the same apple products with the same size. Show how to use the tinier apple watch! How is it, to work with the 11" iPad? Is it comfortable to have a smaller iPhone?
But at this point Terren always had the small iPads I think, so it's a completely new experience for him. And the video is still great!
If you're on an iPhone, the auto connect to hotspot makes it pretty seamless. It's frictionless enough that I always just go for the WiFi version of the iPad (apart from making my macbook seem like it's got cellular itself). I think the advantages of having it built in on the iPad is the bigger battery, and the bigger antenna (from past personal experience).
