DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! iPad 10 vs iPad 9

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ก.ย. 2024
- Should you buy the iPad 10 or the much less expensive iPad 9? Can the iPad 9 compete with the newer iPad 10? I have been looking forward to this comparison ever since the iPad 10 was announced, because I think the iPad 9 is a great entry-level iPad and I wanted to see if the 10 would just take things to the next level. There’s a lot to talk about, there’s a new design, new display, new colors, and new camera and speakers, but there are also some things missing from the iPad 10, and some choices that don’t really seem to make sense.
I’ve used both iPads for gaming, browsing the web, watching video, social media, and for the basic office-type work I do for managing Tech Gear Talk - so how do they compare and which one is the better choice?

What's up everyone?! I hope this comparison of the iPad 10 and the iPad 9 was helpful. Did I cover what you wanted to know? What else did you want to see or learn about?
Btw.. “ the ipad 10 has a higher resolution “ you say, but you know they both have the same 264ppi.. cmon.
I don't play games like ping or COD, etc. I like casual games no higher than 1 GB per game, I don't have many photos, just one or two, would 64 GB be perfect? I'm thinking about using it for virtual school, would,64 still be okay, or will I be out?
Also, how long does the battery last?

Is this keyboard folio compatible with 9th gen
I bought the iPad Gen 9. I think it a better value for my use case, mainly media consumption and internet browsing.
The speakers only firing out of one side ruin media consumption without using headphones/external speakers, and for me that made the iPad 7, ipad 8, iPad 9, iPad Air 3, and iPad Mini 5 complete dealbreakers. It’s hands down the worst aspect of my iPad 6 and why the only iPads I’m considering to replace my 6 with are the iPad 10, iPad Air 4/Air 5, or iPad Mini 6
Does ipad 9 gent support palm rejection?
@@squadnavy1900 all iPads that support Apple Pencil have palm rejection, so yes
Why does media consumption sound so productive 😂
@@YsAviation: hahahah “productive”
Thanks for the thorough comparison. I ended up buying the 9 after looking at the differences and price. Truly, I was drawn to the 10 only because it is colorful and looks more modern.
Glad it was helpful, Amy! Thank you for sharing your decision-making process 🙏🏻
I did exactly that as well so thanks !!!
I honestly would rather have that headphone jack.
For practical purpose the 9th is a better choice!
@@TechGearTalkcan I have the link to the video where you discuss in depth regarding laminated display? Thank you!
I‘ve watched 5 mins, had to stop the video, to let you know that all the points that you’re making in this video are so reasonable and practical, made me really thankful for your review! 👍
I've been going back & forth between the two, especially since I realized that with my student discount, the iPad 10 is only $18 CAD more than the 9th gen when the 9th gen is full price. But I think I will go for the 9th gen. I'll be using it primarily for taking notes in university so I'll use the gift card that Apple gives with the student pricing for the Pencil and then buy the adapters to charge it separately from the iPad. In Canada, with my discount, the 9th gen iPad will only be $488 so that seems super worth it to me. Thanks for this video! It was super helpful!
Just got my nine gen in December for 247 usd on sale
ipad 9 is on sale for 399 CAD
I picked up the 10th Gen 256 gb on sale at Costco for $379. It was $130 more but is newer, faster and has 4x the storage.
Just bought the 9th gen as I needed it as a virtual whiteboard to draw on during meetings. Every other iPad was not worth it for my use case. Really think about what your use case is before buying even if you have money to throw. I could have easily gone with a 12.9inch pro however I struggled to think of what my use case would be and this would be mostly the same for 99% of people.
what is an alternative device for the whiteboard?
@@wowsean could go for an android based tablet to be honest. I think there are some cheaper ones and also you might be able to get a second hand device. Can get some good deals second hand
@@Somethingrandom12334 ipad will last like 4-5 years with updates and great performance
I have looked over quite a few video reviews, and yours is the only one that provided enough info for me to finally make my decision. I ordered my iPad 9 today!
So what did u buy finally?
@@navi_mishra2136u saw 9 rt?
This is an excellent side-by-side review. I look forward to more of your content. You’ve got a subscriber!
Wow, this was totally in depth and exactly the comparison I was looking for! I wanted the USB C originally, but losing the headphone jack and an annoying pencil compatibility means I will probably save my money and get the 9. Thank you!
So glad it was helpful, Katrina!!! Thank you for being part of the channel!
Thanks for this! Really validated my recent purchase. I was using an iPad Air (2013). I do not do much other than reading on it, maybe some occasional TH-cam or video streaming service, hence why I have been satisfied with it. Two years ago the iPad had a hardware issue where it thinks there is something plugged into the headphone jack at all the times so I had to use a Bluetooth headset. Tired of this, and the slow speed of even browsing the web using Chrome, I broke down & bought a Fire HD 8 for $115. That thing was barely faster than the iPad Air! Returned it & the next day found the iPad 9 on sale for $250 at Target.
I just bought the IPad 9th Gen from Best Buy as a Christmas gift to myself ( it’s sitting under the tree 😅). Best Buy had it on sale for 230 bucks. I honestly only needed a iPad for streaming Netflix, TH-cam, Disney Plus etc, web browsing and light gaming. the iPad is mainly used for when I am traveling or on vacation. So it didn’t make sense to spend a lot of money on an iPad for my basic needs since I also have an iPhone 15 pro max and MacBook Pro M1.
Sounds like you made the right choice. You have a nice ecosystem going.
Got Ipad 9 as my first Ipad ever and Im happy with that. Because my laptop died during the xmas so then I decided to buy Ipad cause I do have an Iphone and for me its enough, to check social media, watching movies or reading my mails and Im happy with that.
Same but i never had an laptop and it has like 256 or 265 gb! My mom got it with the apple pen and i was extremely grateful.
Just get the iPad Air 4. Honestly, there's no point in buying the Air 5 since it's "major upgrade" was a new chip. The Air 4 has a better screen, better audio quality, better chip, works with Apple Pencil Gen 2 that snaps to the side and is virtually the same price as the iPad 10. If you want the best budget iPad, go for either gen 9 or even 8. Frankly, most people who use the iPad, use it for video and social media so a used, older generation would be just fine, as well.
Bought used iPad Air 4 with pencil and case for $460, oh did I forget its WiFi + Cellular? 🤣 I was waiting for 10th gen before pulling the trigger and once I saw how awful the price for 10th gen was I knew it had to be the Air 4.
@@fgaurano You got yourself an awesome deal! 👍👏😎
@@fgaurano brokie I got myself a $1400 IPad Pro 12.9 inch cuz I like to watch movies
@@gimmepenalty that’s great! I mainly use the iPad for notetaking and a bit of gaming as I already have a surface pro for all other stuff 😬
@@RabianskiT definitely! Thanks! 😎
Your reviews helped me make my decision in buying the iPad 9 in late 2022 before watching this video... But now that I'm watching it, I realized that I would still make the same purchase! The iPad 9 is amazing!! The only 3 complaints I have are, 1. Go for the OLED iPads if you have the budget, if not the LCD on iPad 9 is sharp, high quality and enjoyable
2. The speaker setup when watching cinematic movies or gaming will disaappont you in term of firing the sound only on one side of you, I personally don't care, I use bluetooth speaker mostly for movies and headphones for gaming. Casually watching some youtube or listening to a podcast is great and somewhat a little bassy on the iPad 9 speakers.
3. The non laminated display will be noticable taking notes at an angle .. try to be positioned at the center of the screen when writing notes.. it is a natural positiong while sitting straight at the table, so you'll get used to it pretty quickly!
Last advise, if you can affoard, go for the 256GB storage. iPads are amazing, you like to install and download everything on them, 64GB is tolerable but is not enough for an enthusiast.
I couldn't affoard paying more for the options myself mentioned, but I am so happy doing university stuff and arts here and there with my iPad 9 64GB
Thank you for reading and thank you Gear Talk for giving honest and precise reviews ❤️🕊️
OLED ipads don't exist dude
@@NeverSettleForMediocrity yes, you're right! I thought the iPad Air 2022 has an OLED display!!!
But still, if the display is the most important thing the mini-led iPad Pro is the best
@@pooyadelfani7898 that costs as much as top end Windows/Macbook, rather irrelevant outside of few niche uses for digital creators + miniLED on this 1st attempt is pretty lacking
Thank you for your excellent reviews. I bought the 9th gen the day after 10th gen release on Amazon for $269, for my husband for Christmas. He currently uses a 2012 model. Thanks to you I understand the specs and who needs which iPad. The 9th will be a big upgrade for him. I’m still using a 2nd gen iPad Pro that serves me well for photo editing and everything else. It would be great though to have the usb-c port. Using an adapter for that drains battery life quickly.
I really appreciate you sharing your story and decision-making process. I think you got a fantastic value at $269 - and I agree that it will be a big upgrade for him. Appreciate you being part of the channel!
Is the 2018 iPad Pro still a good deal? Will it stop getting updated soon?
the 2nd gen is still a good one for editing? its so slow in my eyes
@@RealJustinRoblox depends on the price you find it at and no I don’t see Apple dropping support for the 2018 anytime soon. Still really fast and was the first to start apple’s new design language so it still looks modern if you care at all about that.
Hello, can you explain your last sentence please? - Using an adapter for that drains battery life quickly.
For what using an adapter drains battery? explain please? i want to buy ipad 10.2 - do you recomment it or ipad 9?
One of the best tech channels out here!
I found your videos around late spring when i was hesitating between the Air 4 and the 9th gen Ipad. I am a university student and was on a budget when it came to decision so i went with the 9th gen. I was thinking that maybe i should wait for the 10th gen to get released, but after seeing this comparison i would probably end up with the same decision. To be honest i am super satisfied with it so far, it's basically more than enough for everything i am using it.
Keep up the good work man!
I really appreciate you sharing your thought and decision-making process. Thank you for being part of the channel!
I’m so happy I landed on your channel! You are by far the most informative, most coherent, and most entertaining! Thanks! Buying the ipad 10 now 😅
Oh wow - thank you so much for the kind words. I appreciate you for being part of the channel!
Thank you. I was wondering whether to replace my iPad9 with the 10 and recycle mine in the family, but the price change was shocking. Yes I saw they changed a lot in terms of specs but neither of them actually spoke to me, except finally complying to the obligation of moving to USB-C, as required by EU. In the iPad9 they complied by using the trick of putting the USB-C on the other side of the charging cable, just in case anyone wondered wtf. Back to the subject, I looked at your video to see it in real time and yes, I'd love to have the better resolution and camera placement for calls, which didn't come out as obvious from the list of specs. Other than that, the design change, the very small screen increase, the weirdness of charging the pencil, the same memory size, they are all meh. Not worth all that money difference.
That's the perfect iPad for me the 10th gen. Keep in mind not all the people change their devices year to year. The last iPad I bought was an iPad Air 2 in 2014. And I'm still writing this comment on it, because my main purpose of it's existence was watching TH-cam and Netflix. Sometimes some web browsing and professionally I used it for Teams calls and also for apps for live sound mixing consoles like A&H dLive or SQ. I did not need anything else, and I would continue to use it if the battery would not become unreliable. My brother bought an iPad Air with the M2 chip and I loved it but could not justify the price on such low usage and since I know I won't use the Apple Pencil at all the 10th gen is perfect for my upgrade as it looks the same as the Air (which I love the look over the 9th gen by ba huge mile) and the camera in the middle is a big deal for me for the Teams meetings as I will look more naturally. So yeah I do get it in the year by year comparison it's a weird device, but for me it just ticks every single thing for a lower price than the Air. Keep in mind I used the 2014 till now with no issues for my usage so even if I get 6 years out of the 10th gen that's ok for me. So IMO there is a market for this product. I know I will enjoy it! Peace!
I'm in exactly the same boat! How's your 10th Gen? I'm also on Air 2 and it's on its last legs now :(
@@DaKoolDude It's absolutely awesome! Definitely a worthy upgrade, does everything I want, all works as expected, it was a good decision to get the 10th gen!
So far I’m really happy with my iPad 9th Gen & never looked back since. Got myself the Apple Pencil too last week & bam! It’s the best investment I’ve made & no regrets, TBH 😍😎
U girl 👀
Thanks for all your videos. I've been considering which ipad I should get (never had one before). When I heard about ipad 10 coming soon, I decided to wait and while there are some nice upgrades, there things which definitely don't make sense (such as no pencil 2 compatibility). For the price increase it just wasn't worth it for me as my main use will be note taking and browsing the Web with some streaming. I managed to find the ipad 9 in the UK for £279 (apple current pricing is £369) and then I had a further 6.5% discount via my employer so it cost be approx £261. Been using it for a few days and very pleased with it. Don't play heavy games (or many games in general) so there is plenty of power in the ipad 9 for me. Also got the pencil for £83.99 so, again, very pleased with the price point and the product quality. The charging of the pencil 1 is a bit annoying but for the insane amount of money I saved not getting the ipad 10,i can happily live with it. Will just need to make myself a small pouch for the adaptor as I don't like charging it in the ipad lol.
I was also considering the air 4 but again, the price was still comparatively higher.
Where did you find it for £279 please?
@@oliviafrancesxxx it has since gone up to 287. 99 but still better than other websites. I got curry's to price match it so my purchase was via them instead
@Olivia techinthebasket
In last Christmas I bought iPad 9 form your clips that was so helpful thank you for that and it has bin one year and I play games everyday and it is still working like butter 😍👍
Great to hear! So glad it's working well for you!!!
Thanks for this breakdown! I tried comparing on my own, but as someone who isn't particularly tech savvy I found the online information overwhelming. I think I'll go with the 9th after your breakdown. It's a shame because I honestly love the sleek design of the 10th. The biggest determining factor for me was the price for each GB option.
I'm so glad I could help Rosie. I'm so glad I was able to help you with the decision. Thank you so much for leaving a kind comment and for being part of the channel. Enjoy your iPad 9!!!
Thanks for the review, they just had a massive price drop and I got the 9th gen for $140. I think its decent considering its my first ipad and im only using it for streaming and writing notes
I bought iPad 9 today and the experience is amazing.
CONGRATS!!! Thank you for being part of the channel!
Do you recommend I get the 9 also? I want to buy an iPad this week but I’m still contemplating. Also looking at my budget
@@Mxxddyy according to your budget, yes. It is a good choice.
@@kozmobotgames I just bought it. I’m happy with it already. Although there is no SIM card slot that’s unfortunate
@@Mxxddyy thanks, I am using my iPad 9th generation because I want to learn digital art and that is my first Apple device.
This is the comparison we were all waiting for….
Done by the guy who does these comparisons better than just about anyone in the game!
I got the 9 at 256 gb last year, and though I usually upgrade the basic model as often as I can
It just doesn’t seem as urgent this time around.
Kind of like the iphone.
We all have the 12 pro max in my family
and the 13 and 14 just have not seemed like “gotta have it “ upgrades.
The performance of the 10 does not really seem that much superior to the 9
so I would basically be just trading up for the new design.
And the price to do it just seems way too close to the Air models - which are better - to make much sense!
And while it may look ridiculous to charge my pencil by sticking it out of the bottom
- this new way of getting out various easy to lose adapters and cords makes that method look pretty darn good by comparison!
both have worthless inferior non-laminated screens so Ipad 10 price is absurd when compared to what you get with an Ipad Air 5
@@NeverSettleForMediocrity
Got to tell you
I’ve had many iPads
that have laminated screens and I don’t really think they are that important !
In fact - I’ve had 2 of those iPads
( iPad Pro 2017 and iPad Air 3 )
That developed white spots on them!
So even though u r right- the Air 5 definitely has a better and brighter screen
- to me the non laminated screens look perfectly fine and honestly do not bother me at all!
@@NeverSettleForMediocrity Nobody cares about that….the majority of people doesn’t even know what a laminated screen is, and for those who do know it’s a minor (worthless) aspect.
Just got my iPad 9th gen after watching this review!!!!❤
I've always recommended the base ipad because it was the best bang for the buck. Now, this ipad is too expensive for entry lever users
Coming from an older model, I love the new features on the 10; however, the reason I love the basic iPad is for the audio jack, which the 10 lacks. I also agree with you about the storage options.
It’s sad that they haven’t improved the basic iPad more and keep lowering price. The biggest issue with the 9 is still the 3gb of RAM. But the processor is perfectly fine and it’s very snappy. The 10 is not worth the premium price IMO for basic iPad use.
I got the ipad 9th Gen for Christmas and I absolutely love it the main difference at least that I know of is the home button and screen size but they both use the same Apple Pencil and I am very thankful for getting this iPad!
As always, great comparison! I went through a similar decision making process when I moved from the iPad Min 5 to the Mini 6 --- were the extra features worth the extra cost? I can make a case in my mind for the iPad 10 if: you're not interested in the pencil (never have been), purchase a 3rd party case (always do), like the updated design (definitely), and really like the new camera placement (definitely x 2). So I'd be tempted if I were considering going to a larger tablet (I'm not 😊).
Thank you for your continued support and input. My only question would be - can you find a refurbished Air 4 for less Money. You wouldn't get as good a camera system, but will have a better display and speakers. Maybe I'll do that comparison as well. 😂🤣
Although I really wanted the pro 11, I couldn't justify the cost for just a media consumption device. I went with the 9th gen. $279 at costco during the sale, and it will serve it's purpose for when I want a bigger screen and want to browse the web on the couch.
Much better to get that than the 10th gen for $450. I actually got an iPad Air 5 for just $50 more than the retail price of the 10th gen iPad, so I guess I dodged a bullet there too🤷🏽♂️
I got my 9th gen on sale at Best Buy a few months ago for $269. Very happy with my purchase.
The 10th Gen 256 gb for $379 at Costco. Is $100 more and has 4x the memory. Is this worth upgrading to?
I recommend that you skip the Apple Pencil. Try the Logitech Crayon instead. It works just as well, has USB-C charging, and costs less. No magsafe charging though. 🤷♂ Just a thought....
Me i found the ipad 10 256 gb for 460 good or no
I have the 9 and although I would love the new 10, here in Canada I paid $429 for my 9th gen and the 10th gen is $599. Not worth that much of a price jump to me.
My ipad 10th gen is $480 u should have bought it from the apple online store
I keep my iPad in a case, so the design isn't a big deal. I have the iPad 8 with 128 GB storage. It's unfortunate they did away with that storage option. That seems to be the sweet spot. For my use, it's still a good iPad. When I bought it, I only paid $349 for the uprated storage, so it's a good value. I'll probably keep it for at least 2 more years. battery life is still 97% after 2 years, so it should last 2 to 3 more years.
How do you read battery health on an iPad?
Check your trade in value if you upgrade to the 9. I went from 8 to 9 and the larger base storage and better camera was a nice upgrade for $150 after trading in the old iPad.
I bought the iPad 10th gen in blue. The glare is absolutely horrible. I used two different anti flare screen protectors that just made it a little blurry and almost made the display look like a cheap tablet. I ended up switching to the 9th gen simply due to having less glare.
Hay mate, this is a key decision. I'll choose iPad 9 over the 10..Why? because it is more affordable with a still powerful A13 chip plus the 3.5mm jack big for me and besides Apple will still support them for the next 3 years!
That logic makes sense to me 👍🏻
I think the best purchase that I made was a couple months back when I purchased the iPad ninth GEN. Unfortunately it was stolen less than a week after purchasing and I just now bought the 10th GEN iPad, unfortunately it was all anyone had around me without contract so I bought it cash. $665 later. Besides the obvious that you spoke of and the new colors, lol love the sarcasm, there is not much difference and I would recommend the iPad nine.
Lol how did it get stolen and I bet the only reason ur recommending it is bcause it's cheaper
Coming in 2024, will the 9th gen be a better choice than the iPad Pro 10.5? My use case being for digital drawing
I watched this AFTER buying the 9, and glad I did now. The only thing I would have liked would be the USB-C port
Where did u get those wallpapers they look cool
I prefer the design of the gen 9 iPad more than the block design. Gen 9 display is enough for a portable screen
Great video. I was just shopping for one of these and was debating between the 9 for $249 and the 10 on sale for $349 ($449 everywhere else). Bummed that they seemed to have missed the mark a bit but at only $100 difference I think the 10 will be the way to go. Curious if the apple pencil thing is something that can be remedied in a future software update or if it requires onboard hardware. Either way, it'll do more than what I need it for anyway haha.
May I ask where the 9th gen is at $249 for? Most places ive seen are going for 329
@@gabrieladominguez-xr4dh Bestbuy and Costco had the gen 9 for $249. Don’t know if that was a sale price or not.
I had to give up my 9 because my daughter’s iPad 6 wouldn’t charge. I bought a 10 because with had a $75 gift and with the education discount it was only $45 more than another 9. But, I hate the iPad folio and wish they offered a much lighter Smart Cover, and I think the 9 is more ergonomically comfortable to hold. I am considering returning my 10 because I hate the folio so much. But, I’ve been flip flopping before the return limit is exceeded
I still have no idea what Apple was thinking with the iPad 10. So many things make zero sense. I saw the IPad Air 4 for $350 at Wal-Mart the other day. Save your money and find a good deal on the iPad Air 4. I have an 8th gen iPad and I’m heavily considering the Mini 6 and it’s $399 most places these days.
gotta get my iPad 9 this week. thank you so much for the review!
Thanks for your honesty, you know most of the videos posted here are like encouraging people to buy the iPad 10 just because it's so wooow !
Glad I could help. Thank you for being part of the channel!
In store audio speaker testing gave surprising results and clearly shows the iPad 9 is louder with cleaner sound than the iPad 10.
I think either go for Ipad 9th gen or Ipad Air M1. Ipad 10th gen is not priced properly.
True.
the 10 is a downgraded Air, not an upgraded ipad.
I can buy a iPad Mini 6 for $399 vs iPad 10 for $449. It’s a Mini for me. Even if at regular price, the Mini’s only $50 more. The Mini as a laminated display and the A15 chip !
So as a student on budget do you recommend the 9th generation?
Obviously
If the new screen and features mentioned won't make much of a difference
I’ve got iPad 9th gen im really happy with it I won’t be upgrading
I appreciate you sharing, Jay. Keep getting the most out of your gear!
I’ve just bought a reconditioned iPad Air with the 2nd generation pencil and keyboard. I was waiting for he 10th generation and was very disappointed ☹️
I use iPad as a drawing tablet and the icky pencil situation with 10 was what put me off. I don't mind charging my pencil by sticking it into the tablet; it's not pretty and you have to be careful, but you just need a pencil and a tablet. With 10, you either need to bring a cable everywhere you go (complete with an adapter) or try and remember to charge your pencil before you leave. Also, Apple just stopped giving "freebies" (aka Necessary Stuff) with the newer, upgraded 1st gen pencil and the 2nd one; if you buy the 1st gen now, you also get both adapters (at least where I'm from) and some spare tips, and for the other pencils you get nothing, and you are expected to pay much more. So yeah, 9 is for the win
This video makes me question the existence of the iPad 10. Mainly for the pencil issue. I feel like the 9 is a better buy, or skip the 10 completely and consider the new air. Anyone else feel this way?
I bought 9 and I'm happy, there is no point in paying more for 10 too few changes and too high price aplle too greedy is.
Apples iPad Lineup is A MESS! Too many iPad versions, too many compromises, and stupid design and pricing decisions. Apple used to have simple but great product choices. Prices were high but justified, because they offered awesome quality and made good design choices. Somebody really needs to put real product people back in charge, because this marketing nonsense has gone too far…
I really don’t understand the fuss about the lack of headphone jack. I mean it’s 2022, how many years has it been since apple took out the jack on the iphones. Besides, it’s very likely that if you own an iPad 10, you own an iPhone 7 or later.
Thank you so much for this video. Well made comparison and straight to the point. I just bought the Ipad 9 for my mom based on this video.
So glad it was helpful. Thank you for being part of the channel!
After 7 months switching from iPad Mini 5th gen 64GB to Xiaomi Pad 5 256GB, I ended up buying iPad 9th gen 256GB because I feel not well optimised on my Xiaomi Pad 5 on certain games like Genshin Impact which it have a bit laggy here and there. But iPad 9th gen it is pretty smooth and rarely has issues (minor lag still occurs sometimes). Use for at least 2 days now from the date I post these comments.
So Genshin still runs smoothly on the iPad 9?
Tech Gear Talk what should i pick iPad 10th Gen 64gb or iPad 9th Gen 256gb?
I definetely like the 10 bc of I dislike the bezels on the 9. Does the 10 actually have problems or is it just in comparison to others? This would be my first iPad but the air is too expensive and I love the way the 10 looks
Ps.: for a student that would use the pencil a lot, study for long hours and plan to use it for as long as possible (many years)
I wh rn had any issues with the 10. I would consider a used iPad Air 4 with 2nd Gen pencil if you use the pencil a lot.
Buy the iPad 10th gen and buy the alternative stylus pens they're pretty good
Here is the pricing for both Ipads here in Australia. The iPad 9th Gen WiFi 256GB is $797.00. The iPad 10.9 Inch WiFi 256GB (10th Gen) Blue is $979.00
geezus
Thats like what 5 bucks US? Australian dollars are next to worthless
the lack of 2nd pencil support on the 10 is a deal breaker.
im a 9yr old kid i am planing to purchase the 9th gen i like it more then the 10th gen and 9th gen is more chepear thanks for the video!
thanks for the info. I just wanted something I can use to jot down ideas or look through online courses for my school. Just picked up the ipad 9 for $250 at target.
Superb. If anyone is feeling confused about anything relating tech., then i think your channel may be a big help for him/her. All doubts cleared 😊 btw 👍
Oh wow - thank you for the kind words!
Nobody's gonna talk about how ipad9 has better mic than 10
great review and very honest. I think the 10th generation should have 128gb for the price but as always they do it on purpose to push you to the to top model as 64 in 2023 is a bit ridiculous. going to skip this round!

Thinking about to buy the 9th and I think I will do it after this video! tysm❤
So glad it was helpful. I appreciate you. Ring part of the channel b
It seems that younger people prefer aesthetics first, whereas older people value a balance between practically and cost with aesthetics being less important. In any event, an iPad will always be an intermediate device mostly used for entertainment and leisure.
Recently bought the 9th gen as it my first ever ipad, i got everything i needed and even more. Btw they included the usb-c adapter in the Apple pencil 1 box now, probably to support 10th gen users.
Congrats on your new iPad!!! Thanks for contributing to the community.
The iPad 9 is the real budget iPad.
The iPad 10 is now the budget Air. 😂
Ha, yes.
iPad Air 4 sure
Headshot 😌
@@rf7182 not everyone is comfortable buying an iPad pre-owned or refurbished
I find it criminal Apple didn’t add landscape stereo to the iPad 7, let alone the iPad 8 and iPad 9. Without a doubt the worst aspect of these iPads and makes landscape content consumption a no-go without headphones/external speakers
Oooh a review I never knew I needed. I was waiting for your iPad 10 v iPad Air 5.
Hope you like it! When you're done, here is the review you asked for: th-cam.com/video/dfUDr2X1Jc8/w-d-xo.html
Upgrading ipads every 3 generations seems to be the sweet spot. Getting a new one every generation is a huge waste of money since 99% of the time they are more of the same...
the 10th Gen Apple iPad pricing was there for a reason: to gravitate you all towards iPad Pro.
• 128GB option removed, so that you either have too little (64GB) or too much (256GB.) Because only iPad Pros have that option. Or Apple will suggest you to get cloud storage (another opportunity to sell you iCloud.)
• Pricing was increased too to the point that you are being suggested to get iPad Air instead.
• Apple Pencil 1 not being updated to USB-C was intentional: they either have a lot of 1st gens that they want to clear inventory or they can't afford to change them all to USB-Cs. And also, an opportunity to sell you those silly adapters.
Everything Apple does with the specs/pricing is an opportunity for them to sell you something. Best advice: get the 9th gen instead or better yet, a refurb 4th Gen iPad Air.
Ipad 10 is cheaper ipad air 4. Why to buy a refurb?
@@agenericboringhomosapien8108 the 10th Gen iPad has plenty of features gimped compared to even a refurbished iPad Air 4 (even though theyre different leagues.)
Heck, even the 9th Gen slightly fared better in comparison to the 10th.
in my country ipad 10 is 589 ! and 359 for ipad 9 thanks for the video the difference doesnt worth 230€
This channel is great because it is takes into perspective of the average consumer who is trying to get the best value for their money but also trying to get a great user experience
Thank you so much for the kind words and support!
Watching from the ipad 9. Been watching ur videos ever since and you made me buy this ipad 😂. Didnt regret it. ❤❤
Bought the iPad 9th for €439,45, without case. The best case on the market is Logitech’s combo touch €159,99. The Smart Cover from Apple is €59,95 if you need a pencil they start at €119,99 and Apple care €79,00
This is amazinggggg... Thanks for the clarification 🙌
Glad it was helpful! I appreciate you watching!
Just bought the iPad 9 brand new for $249.99 Best Buy. $200 cheaper than the 10 it was an easy choice.
Because of your video (not this)...i buy ipad 9 right 2 weeks before 10 launch...im glad 10 is more expensive.. im new to apple ecosystem and need usb c to expand storage easier but third party lightning adapter work well.. honestly i regret a bit but since 10 more expensive... Don't get me wrong...im not blaming you... i watch you and others channel and upcoming ipad 10 rumours to strengthen my decision if i buy old design ipad 9 ... finally I love my decision..🥳
One thing that i confuse is how apple ecosystem really work? I came from Android and windows and apple really made ipad exclusive for i cloud.. for example i have photo media to be used in app like KineMaster in files app but its doesn't shown like to browse in android file chooser..i have to save that media in photos first to show that media in that app.. so in ipad, duplicate files is everywhere ..could you do suggest some alternative 😶🌫️😑😩
I’m still uncertain! I have an iPad Mini 5th Generation. I don’t game. I don’t edit videos (I do want to do a bit), I don’t watch movies. I watch, or listen to music (usually without headphones), and my biggest use is for Procreate. I’m just a hobbyist though. My Mini is 64GB and is nearly full. I find it a little small now for drawing. I’m confused about the pencil. I usually charge with a pencil dock. I have a little adapter that came with my pencil a couple years ago-is that what I’d need? The 10th Gen, with 256GB is $799+13% tax; the 9th Gen with 256GB is $619 + tax here, so that’s not a budget item for me! I just wonder if they’ll have something else new soon?
iPad 10 takes your wallet to the next level! 😂
I’m gonna upgrade from 9th Generation to 10th Generation.
Very good. video and I agree the changes don’t appear so extreme.
I will not be getting any iPads after the 9th gen for sure. The 3.5mm is very important for audio out/mic which should be the minimum requirement.
Thanks for watching and the feedback. It seems like most manufacturers are going away from 3.5mm on flagship tablets. I wonder if they will make a comeback.
@@TechGearTalkMust believe :)
Thank you for this one. I was waiting for this review!
Glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU!! This is just what I needed to hear🎉
I am now using an iPad 9, I was choosing 9th gen or 10th gen, and for me the 9th generation iPad (64 GB) is the way to go. I don’t mind the flaws of it such as lightning port, non-laminated display and the dated design, and for most of the tasks I do on an iPad, it can do it all just fine with little to no hiccups. The 64 GB of storage is okay, but I am not sure if that will be enough for those who bought that if they play Genshin Impact or any big titles regularly, for me it’s fine, but it’s close. The 10th gen iPad is not good value (in my opinion) it’s essentially like the 9th gen but with a new chassis, updated processor and a bigger display (still non-laminated). And for $450, you could steal a refurbished iPad Air 4/5 for $520 or lower. Or maybe even a 256 GB 9th gen iPad for $479, tho $30 more than the 10th gen, you get 4 times the storage
The 10th gen has better qualities though
@@cammayburrell8117 It does have better qualities, but do you think it’s worth $120 over the iPad 9. For me nope. when Apple launched the iPad 10th Gen, it’s surprising that they wanted it to not be a direct replacement compared to when the iPad 9 came out in 2021. So it’s essentially puts it in a middle ground in terms of price between the iPad 9 and iPad Mini 6, and in terms or 10-11 iPads, the 10 is in the middle again. While I was drawn by the 10’s colorful and modern design, it’s core is more like the iPad 9 instead of the iPad Air 4/5.
Before the 10th gen came out, we are used to the fact that every year the basic iPads will just get incremental upgrades such as more powerful chipsets. But when the 9th gen came out, they made upgrades that make it toe-to-toe with more powerful and expensive iPads. Such as 64 GB as base storage, TrueTone, and even though the non-laminated display and A13 Bionic are not the best components, for most people, it still runs fast and fuss free even as time goes by.
@@cammayburrell8117 And while the 10 is good, for me and I will have to say it again, I don’t think it’s a good buy for most people. Colorful and Modern Design, but otherwise it’s still like the Basic iPad and it eliminates compatibility to the Magic Keyboard and Smart Keyboard Folio. And more importantly 2nd gen Apple Pencil
I want to get a generation 9 10.2 screen 256k ram don’t care on the color grey black,or silver is fine but need headphones Jack I don’t like the new ones at all where can I get a Gen 9 without having to refine the house? I need to get switched over soon any recommendations where to buy? I saw some refurbished ones for about 50.00 lesss with open box. But not sure it’s worth the risk?
The real question for me is whether the iPad 10th generation is worth CAD327 (USD246). That is the equivalent in 16 months worth of banking fees. What the heck am talking about? Sixteen months is the minimum time to have open a current account at the Royal Bank of Canada, which is giving them away for new account depositors.
For me the issue is this - ipad10 is neither fish nor fowl. It is neither of the iPads are truly want : the mini as a 'pony' and the Pro as a 'workhorse'.
You make the best videos comparing Apple products BTW.
A little bit over 2 weeks ago that I got an iPad in space grey 9th generation. It is easy to used and setup,too. I liked it so far that I put in some movies from my iMac Air. I do have an older one but, the battery ballooned up. I can’t used it. I got the newer one on sale at Target.
Let’s be honest as much as I love the 9th gen. Some ppl may opt towards the air for a updated design. Those who go for the 10th gen are Apple Pencil 1 gen users. Again the price point of this iPad 10 is a lot cheaper if you consider the education discount . But the Pencil dongle shi, it was drives ppl way.
I have composed my recent song only with iPad 9th gen on garageband. Only the mixing part I have done on my MacBook. The 9th gen iPad is awesome!
Wow. Amazing! Congrats!!!
I do not understand why nobody mentions that this new folio cover does not protect a single inch of the ipad from the side. For 250 $
Thats what I'm saying
Just got my iPad 9th gen for $250 taxes included. If I want more power I already got the iPad Pro m2 for my work
Which one is better for university? I want to buy an IPad to take notes, is it worth buying the ipad 2022 or the 2021 one is a better option, beacause it costs less and there aren't so many differences for my purpose?
To me this 10th gen will be worth it to buy next year. I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t updated for 18months and then back to chip updates only while the price lower over time.
Will be interesting to see.
would you consider 399 a good price? im tryng to get into the tablet&stylus game but hate having the apple thunderbolt on the 9th and dongles etc
@@FedeLazza$379 and they wouldn't be able to keep them on shelves.
