Great review - I’m coming off iPad Pro M1 and couldn’t be happier with my new M4 😊. All the little previous snags have been addressed. It’s now super-smooth and slick and really difficulty to find anything to fault
You will definitely appreciate M6 iPad Pro that comes with WiFi7, Bluetooth 5.4, second camera lens, better speakers; 5th speaker phone and little thicker body.
I was going to buy the 13 M2 iPad Air $799 but I saw Best Buy has the 12.9” iPad Pro M2 on sale for $999. The extra $200 is worth it for the better speakers, mini LED and pro motion. I don’t care about the landscape camera and the Apple Pencil Pro.
High key I don’t understand why the iPad Air exists when you could just get a previous gen Pro that’s better in every way and is only a fraction more expensive or the same or cheaper depending on discounts. Great decision!
Biggest draw for me is that display, being able to have a second monitor that matches if not beats my MacBook Pro is something that’s gonna be invaluable for photo editing. Can’t wait to put it to the test, fantastic as always bro❤
Can confirm the display is absolutely GORGEOUS and a beauty to use. I still am mind blown every time I open up this new iPad. It looks so good. I’m glad you enjoyed my man!
Excellent review. That actually brought up the differences instead of the same old script. Sometimes I wonder if they actually use the product before making a video…
Same! I normally would never do a year on year upgrade, but this one is too good to ignore. I think I’ll be set with my m4 iPad Pro for quite a few years
Yep this is the review I've been waiting for . I don't understand why other reviewers didn't even think how to review the new ipad they just wanted to do it 😅 Thank you very much that was helpful. I just wished you gave the gaming comparison more time
Ive been editing photos on my iPad Pro 2018 for years and it was a great screen. Nowadays the yellowing of the glue has been prominent along the borders of the screen. Its the glue that makes the experience a bit less but nonetheless a great screen to work with. The m2 screen would be sufficient in my opinion for quick edits. I also edit all of my youtube content on the ipad since i got it. I used to edit 4K gopro material but I added a mirrorless and 360 video with it so it demands more power which makes a lot of sense. I think that the M2 most likely will perform brilliant. I still edit video on the ipad but I export on the M1 macbook But I want to go back to doing everything on the ipad.
It”s not a huge difference. But it’s better.” This sums up the new iPad. But it is a huge cost to get a slight improvements. When your iPad breaks or slows because of software updates is when I plan to upgrade at $2K. Hopefully iOS 18 can make it worth the money.
I was really expecting new iPad content from you when I knew you bought it, even tough I'm not an Apple user your channel is my reference to Apple content and I really like your videos because compared to other youtubers that I've seen on the past who dive into fanaticism, you don't lose objectivity to point out what Apple is doing great but most importantly what Apple is doing wrong. Keep going like that mate, greetings from Chile🤙
Thank you so much, I’m glad you enjoyed! I did have a chance to check it out, but it’s really not my thing. It ruins the screen experience imo, what’s the point of getting a top of the line OLED screen just to ruin the contrast. I will always prefer glossy, but that’s just me!
Loved the review - Thank You! I have a M2 12.9 iPad Pro and debating whether to upgrade. Probably just based on storage I need to consider something since I'm near my 256gb limit. Have you noticed a big difference in display quality for Netflix, Apple TV+ and other streaming services compared to the M2 Mini LED display?
I have noticed a HUGE difference in quality, detail, brightness, and most notably, the contrast and blacks. This is coming from the perspective of someone who loves good displays and appreciates the differences. When I’ve shown it to my non techy friends they don’t notice a difference, and my techy friends instantly comment on how much better it is. I guess it depends on what you value, but I personally am in disbelief how freaking good this display is
Thank you, Marc. Even though I watch most streaming on my TV (65 inch OLED HDR) when I do watch content on my iPad, display quality is incredibly important to me. I think I’ll get one but boy - 1tb iPads on the Canadian Apple site ain’t cheap lol - we don’t get the deals US folks get.
What do you think of mixing the space black iPad with the white silver keyboard? I was thinking of mix and matching as well but I’m not sure if the silver finish of the hinge mixed well with the space black iPad when in clamshell.
Apple can throw out the term "ai" all they want. I still would like to see more real world use cases. Ones that actually garner the spending for the higher end ipad pros.
Just had a hilarious chat with my friend from the US. You won't believe it, but they've got a whole flock of Apple sheep there! They'll queue up for the latest gadget faster than you can say 'overpriced'! 😂 I'm still rocking the M1, and it's serving me well. Why fix what isn't broken, right?
No offense but no mention of the mmWave removal nor the fact the single lense now. Not sure why many reviewers are missing talking about the mmWave speed difference than just 5G
i make notices on my iPad and with the Apple Pencil .. i will sell it and make them on the Macbook i will order… oh wait that will NOT work :O. Just because YOU don’t need/like it, doesn‘t mean OTHERS don‘t need/like them… so keep your unproductive opinion for you :)
Why are you so upset about people enjoying iPads? It’s weird. There absolutely is a point. Just because you don’t see one doesn’t mean that’s true for everyone.
Everyone who does not daily use tablets think that, but people who use them daily become so addicted to them... lol for me, I use it daily to write my notes for meetings with the pencil, 2nd monitor for work with my macbook pro, youtube video watching in bed and movie watching on my counter when I cool. I have my Bible and ebooks in it, I have zwift on it for my indoor cycling, so amazing on flights. Yes, phones and MacBook can do all these (except properly writing notes) but once you add the iPad to your lifestyle, it becomes very spécial.
Great review - I’m coming off iPad Pro M1 and couldn’t be happier with my new M4 😊. All the little previous snags have been addressed. It’s now super-smooth and slick and really difficulty to find anything to fault
It really does feel like iPad perfected! I’m loving all the improvements. Can’t wait to see what WWDC has to offer to make it even better!

Just copped the m2 12.9 pro brand new for $900. Def think I made the right choice.
How’s the experience with Apple Pencil generation 2? Is there any lag in any third party note taking apps?
Biggest draw for me is that display, being able to have a second monitor that matches if not beats my MacBook Pro is something that’s gonna be invaluable for photo editing. Can’t wait to put it to the test, fantastic as always bro❤

Great perspectives here. Love your new and different approach. I’m coming for the 2018 iPad Pro. My new one delivers today. CAN’T WAIT!
You’re gonna love it! I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
Speakers are why I’m doubling down on the M2 over the M4
Excellent review. That actually brought up the differences instead of the same old script. Sometimes I wonder if they actually use the product before making a video…
I wonder that too sometimes. But people seem to eat it up. I’m glad you enjoyed!
I came from an M2 11. Didn’t like the screen or FaceTime camera position. The M4 11 is a great upgrade! The screen has the wow factor!
Same! I normally would never do a year on year upgrade, but this one is too good to ignore. I think I’ll be set with my m4 iPad Pro for quite a few years
One thing my new M4 iPad can do that the ones before couldn’t is playback 5k H 264 video!! Runs smooth on this iPad
On TH-cam?
Yep this is the review I've been waiting for .
I don't understand why other reviewers didn't even think how to review the new ipad they just wanted to do it 😅
Thank you very much that was helpful.
I just wished you gave the gaming comparison more time
Thank you so much! I’m thinking of doing a dedicated gaming video soon, hoping a lot of apps update for the new chip!

Looking forward to seeing that 👍

I’m so glad you enjoyed the video and my thoughts! Greetings to you too!!!
Great video! Did you check out the nano-textured version at all?

Marc never misses with Apple content 😮💨👌 yet another great review
I try my best! Grind never stops!
I lIke the details you gave on this device Marc - you notice things I do not.
really i want it now after you fantastic explanation really look very good thank you
It’s definitely a great device, im sure you’ll love it! Thank you for watching!
Is this a review of the 11 inch or 13, I can’t figure out which one you have. Thanks!
This is the 11”
What do you think of mixing the space black iPad with the white silver keyboard? I was thinking of mix and matching as well but I’m not sure if the silver finish of the hinge mixed well with the space black iPad when in clamshell.
I think it looks amazing, and I’m so glad I went with this combo. But that’s my personal preference!
Apple can throw out the term "ai" all they want. I still would like to see more real world use cases. Ones that actually garner the spending for the higher end ipad pros.
I hope they give us some nice updates at WWDC! These devices def aren’t cheap
Best review I’ve seen.
Thank you so much! Means a lot to me!
What about watching TH-cam and movies, how can a Mac do that?
is it possible to connect iPad Pro M2 to the new Magic Keyboard? it’s really interesting XD
It is not possible, the magnet array is different and will not line up
Compare to screen of minioled 12.9+ 4 strong speakers + extra wide camera…. For 850$ you need to be crazy to pay 1300$ for this shame
Just had a hilarious chat with my friend from the US. You won't believe it, but they've got a whole flock of Apple sheep there! They'll queue up for the latest gadget faster than you can say 'overpriced'! 😂 I'm still rocking the M1, and it's serving me well. Why fix what isn't broken, right?
M1 isn’t enough for pro users
LETS GOOOO
WE LOVE A GOOD UPGRADE
No offense but no mention of the mmWave removal nor the fact the single lense now. Not sure why many reviewers are missing talking about the mmWave speed difference than just 5G
These are both wifi only versions, I have no use for the cellular versions
text sucks on the m4
how much apple pay you🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
iPad is for suckers. If it’s not running macOS, it’s garbage. Just get a MacBook for a cheaper price and do more.
i make notices on my iPad and with the Apple Pencil .. i will sell it and make them on the Macbook i will order… oh wait that will NOT work :O. Just because YOU don’t need/like it, doesn‘t mean OTHERS don‘t need/like them… so keep your unproductive opinion for you :)
There is NO point to iPad. 99% people don’t need them. Phone and laptop. That’s all everyone needs.
Why are you so upset about people enjoying iPads? It’s weird. There absolutely is a point. Just because you don’t see one doesn’t mean that’s true for everyone.
