      Tough call: I lived off my iPad Pro 12.9 inch for 2 years fully and it was excellent. But it is different and certain file and app use will be limited to iOS versions. I’ve just gone for the MacBook Pro 14 as I just needed to move things like video editing, diagnose work and Notion template development onto a desktop machine. If all you do is consume content, write, take notes, do a bit of creative design work it’s a fantastic option - for more heavy spreadsheet work, higher end video work or publishing stuff - I’ve gone to a MacBook. Good luck! Thanks for watching.

An iPad is awesome for note taking, reading, organisation...But nothing will change the quickness, the installation of programs, the hability of having 2 screens...If you do not use specialised software, don't mind going a bit slow and think that 64 or 256gb are enough, then go for it. If not, buy a pc. Hope this was useful!

    Simon, have they caught on to the fact that you are a *very* effective communicator, yet? I am hoping you are being sponsored left and right because your demonstrations make everything you feature look like I have to have it...yesterday! I'm not even a Mac person (I've studiously avoided becoming one), but I'm thinking now (all your fault) that maybe I need an iPad. Also, I really appreciate your commitment to production values. Thanks for another informative and entertaining video.

    FilmicPro and Lumifusion are great combination for shooting, editing and uploading video all on the same platform. I started doing that on my 1080p iPad3 with iMovie back in 2012 and was blown away by the quality of the video, automatic control of the color balance and even the sound with just the built in mic. Audience response to videos was so much better compared to the still photos I would shoot, painstakingly edit in Photoshop and post on my web site I pretty much stopped using my Canon DSRL gear and my iMac. In 2018 upgraded an iPadPro3 with Lumifusion and FilmicPro. I also bought a GoPro Hero7 Black but found it far more work to transfer and color grade. After upgrading to an iPhoneXr for shooting on the go I shelved the GoPro and conveniently Airdrop files shot on phone to iPad for editing using Airdrop.

It’s a good app so maybe if one doesn’t mind handing over that much money for summaries instead of reading the books and they have money to burn then go for it but beware they customer service is not just bad but obnoxious.

    Power up Todoist by syncing it to gcal and sending those notes to Evernote with IFTTT.
    My workflow is “quick thoughts or ideas go in Todoist, it gets synced to Evernote.
    Evernote is fully featured and I could just use that, but I also have IFTTT to sync notes I tag as “work” in Evernote get sent to OmniFocus 3, because I like it better for work tasks.
    Evernote is my life organizer and OmniFocus is my work organizer.

    It’s interesting to see language evolve. It’s seems quite common now to use the word software in a singular and plural form instead of uncountable. At first it was just non-native English speakers, but now it seems increasingly common to hear “a software” or “softwares” used by native speakers. My guess is because “app” or “application” is a countable noun and has always been that way, people just tend to swap in the uncountable noun “software” without thinking about it and end up using it the same way.

    • @SuperManning11
      @SuperManning11 ปีที่แล้ว

      Very astute observation, and I would bet you are correct about the comparison of the word software to the countable nature of apps. As I have moved away from my laptop to nearly exclusively using my iPad, I rarely even come across the word ‘software’ in any context, whether traditionally countable or not.

      I don't think its a greed problem. It would be probably easier for them to import mac software straight to iPad but that wouldn't be a good user experience. They have different design philosophies. I think mac people will always prefer a mac but iPad users enjoy and understand iPad user experience. i think apple is pretty close to smoothing down some uses that are way easier on a mac.

It sidestepped many music creation issues of a technical nature, and enabled my ‘problems’ to mostly be musical ones! There is a shedload of music apps now, and then there’s Lumafusion of course. Really, Cubasis and GarageBand makes the Pro 2 worth the £700 I spent on their own. It’s the latest one with a 3.5mm socket of course. Surely it will return? A £400 Mac Mini has one, doesn’t it?

    Excellent video, thank you. And now I’ve discovered your channel, thank you for that too. I have a question that I’ve not been able to find an answer to in your channel, or anywhere else. Apologies if I’ve missed it. The question: is there a single app for iPad that allows you to take written (Apple pencil) notes but also has the ability to set to-do tasks without leaving the app? In a side-bar? That links to your iCal? Is there such a thing? Thank again.

    So recently I acquired a iPad Pro 11. This is my 2nd iPad since the 3rd Gen iPad back in 2012. My impression after a day is that this tablet is way over power for me. I was trying to come up with ideas with apps and games to download, but ended up just installing TH-cam Lmao. No longer a student, not a content creator, nor I play any games any more. This is just a expensive item that I can buy and show off and say “Let me bring my IPad Pro next time.” Honestly I might be more happy with the iPad 10.2 haha
