Verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry, true I just order mine the other day, with 512 GB, just for gaming lol
Very true, my parents bought me the 8th gen for Christmas and my dad offered to get me the pro but I refused knowing full well that I won't use the features that make it the 'pro' as I don't need to.
Yeah, the headphone jack is a game changer. I'm thinking of switching to ipad as my main laptop in the near future, and as a low-budget student not having to buy wireless headphones it an absolute blessing. Get a good off-brand kayboard case and mouse for around $45 total, and I'm set!
Is a rear facing camera on a tablet of this nature even an arguing point? Who really uses that rear camera on an iPad anyway? I say, remove the rear camera and give us a cheaper device...
My parents are moving out and my dad says he will need a laptop (for typical web browsing, TH-cam and Netflix). I said why a laptop when you can do everything you need on an iPad with more convenience. So I ordered one for him and it's arriving within a week and I'm super excited 🤩
@@lanchesternaanyane the speaker quality is fine, however they are only placed on one side - which you may or may not prefer. If not, you can also go for the 2017 iPad Pro but the quality on the 8th will surely suffice the price of the device!
I still have the 10.5 pro iPad. Still running great. I’m getting my daughter the new base iPad, she wants to start drawing but as she’s 12 that will do for now.
I am upgrading from an iPad Air 2, and your video convinced me to buy the iPad Gen. 8 rather than the iPad Pro. I had considered the iPad Air 4, but that model costs about the same as the Pro 11 in. Thank you. I really enjoyed your presentation.
Student Perspective- My iPad Pro 12.9 finally arrived and I’m absolutely loving it. I don’t know why people say the 12.9 screen is too big, but then they say buy a laptop which has the same size of screen, makes no sense. The big screen helps a lot with multitasking. I definitely cannot go back to the other iPads after experiencing this one. The trackpad completely transforms the iPad into a completely different device and makes it so versatile.
cause of taxes, the ipad 8 in my country costs as much as the pro in the USA... so i made a STONKS move Bought the 8th fromUSA and sold it backin my country for about 1000USD (which is the store price for the 8th 128gb + pencil) and then bought a used ipad pro 11 inch 256gb
I've had my iPad 8 for one month now, and I love it. Superior to my Windows PC in just about every way. Beautiful display, and it's fast and powerful. Highly recommended!
There's one thing you forgot: The iPad Pro 2018. It's been on the market for long enough that used iPad Pros of this generation go for about half the price of new. The changes between the 2018 and 2020 models are very minimal: you lose out on the LiDAR sensor and the 2018 didn't come in 1TB, but everything else is still there. The A12Z is just an A12X with one extra GPU core, the smart connector is in the same space so all the accessories work, and so on. I wouldn't be surprised if the Pro's value drops further when people realize the A14 in the Air is just as fast (at least until you need multithreading). I'm starting to think that the iPad Pro 2020 was basically a stopgap until the big chungus A14X comes around next year and provides an actual upgrade.
I was frustrated that I got the iPad 8 gen while everyone is getting the IPad pro but then I saw this video and glad I took a step back from buying the pro one
Waiting for the iPad Air 4 and the release of the silicon MBPs so I can (hopefully) watch a comparison of those two in this channel. Either of the two will be my first iPad or macbook, and only the second Apple device I'll have next to my first gen SE. Also looking to get an AW SE. Awesome channel, sir!!
@@ebonyrose7236 they are pretty much the same. If 128gb or less is enough, go for Ipad 8. If you want apple pencil 2 and bigger screen, then go for Ipad Air 4.
@@comradeuro4255, there are some good deals in the States - like $330 for a standard iPad - but for the other models and the rest of world, Apple products are pretty darned pricey. On top, we have to buy accessories just to plug in headphones or storage. Apple says it's to reduce the carbon footprint, but extra packaging and deliveries for the accessories ADDs to the footprint. Having said that, the tablets themselves are solid and some companies only release their apps on iOS/iPadOS - for example, pro-level music-making apps, which I use. We're damned if we do and damned if we don't, lol.
You can't go wrong either way. iPads have improved my digital life enormously in a way that traditional computers could"t, they are so user friendly you don't want to use anything else
The only reason why I bought the iPad Pro is for future proofing. I have been using my first gen iPad Air for 7 years, and I want my new iPad to last more than that.
Many of the current iDevices will last just as long. I mean I still got a 7+ still usable to this day. I couldn’t justify spending that much just for future proofing but that’s just me.
I’m an apple fan but I’m a college student. I already have the iPad Air first generation, although it still works well, The storage isn’t enough, I can’t upgrade to iOS 14 with A7 chip. My iPad is also very very laggy and not compatible with the Apple Pencil. I wanted to upgrade my technology and I chose the iPad 8th gen. I love the productivity, presentation, price. This is a really good budget baseline iPad to get a lot my work done. I would love to have the pro but it’s not worth it
I recommend everyone out there to get whatever that gives you the most VALUE for MONEY. Try the iPads out at the Apple Store (when you can visit the store) orrrr buy the cheaper iPad and then get a refund if you don't like it and want the iPad Pro. A little bit of a hassle but it is worth it.
Ahahaha I adore you because you tell really true things about iPad 8. There is no need in pros and airs for most of people. I enjoyed how you’ve made video editing on iPad 8. Great! Thank you for saving my money 😂
I love simple video editing on my iPhone 11 - but, wanted a large screen! I didn't want to pay as much for the iPad Pro. Instead, I purchased the iPad 8th Generation and, I am waiting for it to arrive... I got the 128 GB model...
I think I’d definitely purchase the iPad 8 Gen because it’s affordable and having a better camera on the Pro doesn’t matter because I’m not gonna be taking photos on my iPad and also having Touch ID on the home button works the same as Face ID essentially
I just bought the iPad 8 after this video. I simply cannot fathom spending near $1,000 on an Apple tablet when one is available for $299. I will do video watching, some accounting work, excel, and e-mail with it and that's all. If I needed to 4k edit video I likely wouldn't be on an iPad pro anyway. For this reason I don't know why you'd ever get the Pro variant, but to each his own. Also the iPad air is going to retail for $600. Still too much for me imo.
I would invest in the iPad Pro, like I did. Totally worth it, you’re NEVER limited by technology or specs. You always have an excess of speed and power no matter what you’re doing, especially for a college student like myself. I have the 256 12.9 with the magic keyboard and pencil. It’s faster than my desktop pc in every single aspect. I love my iPad and my girlfriend was gonna get a MacBook Pro, showed her my iPad and it’s features, let her use it for 5 mins and now she has the 512 12.9 with the magic keyboard and pencil. Simply perfection.
@@gothicanimeangel96 true, but if you haven't used a laminated screen, like the ipad air and pro, it wouldn't be such an issue. I used to have a budget ipad, and it works fine for art, so I recommend it as it's budget friendly.
@@syubidoobi yeah, agree, used a 6th gen ipad for three years and just upgraded to a pro, would def recommend getting a classic one at first to see if it meshes with your workflow.
My father was asking for a new laptop and the bare minimum laptops with an i5 or better are atleast 675USD where I live. All my father does is TH-cam, Twitter, Netflix and printing his bank statements every month 😄. Bought him the 2020 ipad 8 and fulfills everything for half the price after discounts and exchange. Point is, you don't need the pro if you aren't a creator.
You forgot to mention that Logitech makes a keyboard/trackpad accessory for the iPad 8th gen that’s basically the same thing as the magic keyboard case.
The Everyday Dad Omg you replied! That’s the one iPad I’m actually considering getting! Unfortunately, it’s pretty expensive in my country, but if it’s that good I might as well save for it! Would you recommend replacing a Windows Laptop with an iPad?
Love your vids! I think the upcoming iPad Air will be the Goldilocks choice. The price is reasonable but you're getting most of what the Pro offers. I'm already waiting to click "Add To Cart".
I just recently bought a second hand iPad Pro 2nd gen 12.9 inch with 256gb of storage for 490 euro’s. I use it for watching TH-cam and Netflix and its great I also use it for school notes on occasion. Yes this commet was typed on my iPad.
I’m getting the iPad Nothing two years from now when I upgrade my iPhone and MacBook. I’m not really going to need specs as an average user, it’s a way lesser used device to me than my phone and laptop, I still use an iPad mini 3 and it can pretty much do the job I need. A little disappointed Apple didn’t even lower the mini 5’s price this year, this just made the mini 5 a terrible deal.
Thank you so much buddy for making this video👍. I was having so much of confusion regarding which iPad to buy😬🤔😵. But I saw all your videos and it really helped me a lot😊😁👍🙏
I agree with you, the only reason I bought the iPad Pro 12.9 was for the size of the screen and the magic keyboard to make it a laptop/entertainment device that I could use for work, school, and fun!
Quick moment to say thanks; Thanks to your review, I was able to get The wife that Ipad 8th gen for her Bday -and she LOVES it. It has the EXACT performance as my IPad Air 3 and since the last one she had been using was my original Air from 2014 -it blew her away! FANTASTIC deal for the money and - undoubtedly - the best IPad there is right now for most people’s needs. Plus- headphone Jack! No Bluetooth charging headphones! Yay!
Very helpful! How about the similarities/differences of both devices when you use their respective apple pencils? Does it matter which one to get when your main purpose of buying an ipad is for note-taking?
I ordered my iPad pro like 4 weeks ago and it still hasn't come I'm so eager for it to arrive , ps: never order anything on Apple they will take so long to bring it
Was waiting for ipad air at £569 but found ipad pro 2020 for £659 in a amazon flash sale 15 percent off and am really happy after coming from the great 7th gen which I used for about 6 months
@ i drink water I wish that I could’ve preordered mine when the preorders were first running on September 18, 2020. Now everywhere it just says sold out, coming soon. I could still return my iPad 8 but the time is running out. I can only return my iPad through October 25, 2020. Hope you can tell me how cool it is when you get yours.
I totally feel u when it comes to waiting for the iPad air 4. I have been waiting from may for it and literally can't wait for Oct so that I can watch you're reviews on it and than finally purchase it!
Great video, especially about the USB-C vs Lightning. I couldn't come up with a reason for an iPad when I was deciding if to buy the iPad Pro or buy the iPad 7th. However, as everything in my home does have at least 1 USB-C port- The deal breaker for me is the "USB-C" so that led me to buying an iPad Pro 11. Another big thing to consider the iPad Pro now is to get the 2nd generation Apple Pencil. For me personally, as a university student, having a wirelessly chargable pencil is very important as mobility is one of the most important thing for me. The 1st generation Apple Pencil doesn't provide this (the charging method is really annoying, either you stay still and charge it or you'll have to buy a new bag that's big the size of iPad plus Apple Pencil). That being said, I'm enjoying my iPad Pro a lot while thinking the classic iPad does most of the things I needed it to do. But I believe everyone has different deal breaker and the Lightning and 1st generation Apple Pencil are the deal breakers for me. In the end, I think the new iPad Air 4 will bring the best of both worlds.
I have both but on a budget you really can’t go wrong with the regular IPad the higher refresh rate is nice and speakers are better but you can manage with out it.
Since the price gap isn't too big, I would say go for the pro. It has more cores which will be beneficial for editing and gaming. On top you have 120 Hz which is nice for gaming
I've been using my iPad Air 3rd gen for a year now, and it's giving so much that I want from an iPad, still having the fingerprint id, headphone jack, smart keyboard and apple pencil capability. 😉😊
I’m an iPad Air user that just happens to be an artist. It’s annoying how you can’t use the Apple Pencil with the iPad I use and I can only use procreate pocket
Another point - iPad pro has got the four speakers and for me the deciding factor...12.9" option only with the pro line! Was originally thinking surface pro 7 and jumped to the iPad pro 12.9"!!!
I'm a fan of Apple products and understand their forward thinking but it's great to have a headphone jack (and more ports in general!) as back-up when bluetooth fails. So from a practical standpoint reducing the number of ports can be a real negative!
The 2 main reasons why I prefer the Pro are not even mentioned: 1. Battery lasts longer... and I am sick of my current old iPad with old iPad battery shutting down after tethering internet for hours. 2. I like non-tech people faces when they see the Magic keyboard on action =)
The Firewire crapped out on my Ipad and of course it is not repairable. I now have a perfectly good Ipad which I cannot recharge. I am slowly watching it die. The new Ipad pro's USB 3 connection is not wired into the mainboard and is modular. So the high wear component is now repairable which is a big big deal. You wear out the lower cost Ipad's Firewire and you basically have to toss it. If you are curious, look up IFIXIT and their tear down on both units.
Great video as always, I really like your content and you have inspired me to starting up and creating my own channel...keep it up. I'm definitely giving you a like and subscribing.
With the iPad Pro 2021 you get 8 gigs ram and up to 1tb storage with the m1 processor. iPad OS will get a big update and support Final Cut Pro and other desktop apps.
I’m gonna save for the iPad Pro because I use an iPad for movies, shows, social media, games, art, all of my schoolwork, and other stuff. I have an iPad rn and it’s great but I think it’s time for a bigger screen and overall just an upgrade especially with covid where I’m on my zoom meetings, writing essays, and all that stuff on my iPad
I’ve upgraded from iphone xs max to iphone 12 pro max and because the software is same it doesn’t feel like I’ve got a new phone. Since the ipad also uses the same software I will definitely go for the 8th generation.
I've been needing this kinda video and you uploaded! Thank you soo much!!! I love iPads and I think imma wait until apple make big changes to the budget iPad as they did to the iPad air 4 this year! Thanks!💗☺️👍

me: if i can figure it out, you can figure it out .
Dad: ok
I can watch you talk all day!! Very entertaining lol 😂
Headphone jack and home button make the iPad 8 a no-brainer for me.
Why?
Thanks for a really good review. I just ordered an iPad 8 to replace my fifth generation iPad.
I just recently bought a second hand iPad Pro 2nd gen 12.9 inch with 256gb of storage for 490 euro’s. I use it for watching TH-cam and Netflix and its great I also use it for school notes on occasion. Yes this commet was typed on my iPad.
I’m getting the iPad Nothing two years from now when I upgrade my iPhone and MacBook. I’m not really going to need specs as an average user, it’s a way lesser used device to me than my phone and laptop, I still use an iPad mini 3 and it can pretty much do the job I need. A little disappointed Apple didn’t even lower the mini 5’s price this year, this just made the mini 5 a terrible deal.
Great hearing the comparisons. We picked up a pro for my husband and contemplating on getting the iPad 8 for my youngest child
yes you should it costs much less to repair since there is an air gaap between the screen and the display
@@IcY200 Thanks!
Thank you so much buddy for making this video👍. I was having so much of confusion regarding which iPad to buy😬🤔😵. But I saw all your videos and it really helped me a lot😊😁👍🙏
This is exactly what I was looking for, many thanks and i subscribed for the quality content :)
So your telling me My dad wasted $400 dollars on an iPad mini 4 when I could’ve easily bought a iPad 8
ipad mini its lighter and smaller while the 8th gen is good for artists and gamers

iPad is easier on the eyes than the Mini, and my wife and I have both.
I agree with you, the only reason I bought the iPad Pro 12.9 was for the size of the screen and the magic keyboard to make it a laptop/entertainment device that I could use for work, school, and fun!
honestly the iPad 8 makes my iPad Air 3 feel redundant lol
frankly speaking, this is the best video comparison of ipad pro and ipad 8!!!
Quick moment to say thanks;
Thanks to your review, I was able to get The wife that Ipad 8th gen for her Bday -and she LOVES it.
It has the EXACT performance as my IPad Air 3 and since the last one she had been using was my original Air from 2014 -it blew her away!
FANTASTIC deal for the money and - undoubtedly - the best IPad there is right now for most people’s needs.
Plus- headphone Jack! No Bluetooth charging headphones!
Yay!
When are you doing a Gopro hero 9 review and comparison to other action cameras?
I wont be.
Underrated
@@TheEverydayDad why?!??!?!!?!?
@@TheEverydayDad Please do one.
Great job Gary!
Thanks!
How is it possibly that the everyday dad hasn’t gotten his a7s3?? I bet you’re everyday sad. I am.
I didn’t end up preordering one. But I am going to pick one up today that I found at a local camera store 😅
The Everyday Dad alright pick one up for me, I’ll Venmo you! 😅
Very helpful! How about the similarities/differences of both devices when you use their respective apple pencils? Does it matter which one to get when your main purpose of buying an ipad is for note-taking?
I ordered my iPad pro like 4 weeks ago and it still hasn't come I'm so eager for it to arrive , ps: never order anything on Apple they will take so long to bring it
You must have engraved it....it will come in the 4th week most probably
Did it arrive yet? If yes, congrats!! If no, it's okay, it'll arrive soon!
@@yutazenrenchin9701 it's actually arriving tomorrow thank God 😂 thanks for asking ♥️
@@idrinkwater7648 haha welcome! Hope you'll enjoy your new iPad!!!
@@yutazenrenchin9701 ♥️♥️ do you have one ?
Which one might be better for procreate? I use an iPad 6 gen right now… and I can’t decide which iPad to buy… please help me
Was waiting for ipad air at £569 but found ipad pro 2020 for £659 in a amazon flash sale 15 percent off and am really happy after coming from the great 7th gen which I used for about 6 months
Waiting for Ipad air 4 vs ipad 8 ..
@ i drink water I wish that I could’ve preordered mine when the preorders were first running on September 18, 2020. Now everywhere it just says sold out, coming soon. I could still return my iPad 8 but the time is running out. I can only return my iPad through October 25, 2020. Hope you can tell me how cool it is when you get yours.
I totally feel u when it comes to waiting for the iPad air 4. I have been waiting from may for it and literally can't wait for Oct so that I can watch you're reviews on it and than finally purchase it!
which one do you recommend for note taking? Or do they both function the same when it comes to note taking? Thank you!
Both
well, thanks for reviewing, I'm gonna buy the iPad pro 11 anyway, not about price, it's about SCREEN, iPad 8 carries a really blurry screen.
Great video, especially about the USB-C vs Lightning. I couldn't come up with a reason for an iPad when I was deciding if to buy the iPad Pro or buy the iPad 7th. However, as everything in my home does have at least 1 USB-C port- The deal breaker for me is the "USB-C" so that led me to buying an iPad Pro 11.
Another big thing to consider the iPad Pro now is to get the 2nd generation Apple Pencil. For me personally, as a university student, having a wirelessly chargable pencil is very important as mobility is one of the most important thing for me. The 1st generation Apple Pencil doesn't provide this (the charging method is really annoying, either you stay still and charge it or you'll have to buy a new bag that's big the size of iPad plus Apple Pencil).
That being said, I'm enjoying my iPad Pro a lot while thinking the classic iPad does most of the things I needed it to do. But I believe everyone has different deal breaker and the Lightning and 1st generation Apple Pencil are the deal breakers for me. In the end, I think the new iPad Air 4 will bring the best of both worlds.
I have both but on a budget you really can’t go wrong with the regular IPad the higher refresh rate is nice and speakers are better but you can manage with out it.
You really didn’t answer the question? I’ll wait for the IPad Air
Hey should I get ipad pro 2020 or the iPad air 4th gen for gaming and video editing
Since the price gap isn't too big, I would say go for the pro. It has more cores which will be beneficial for editing and gaming. On top you have 120 Hz which is nice for gaming
Depends if you want 120hz display, if not, then get Air 4.
@phi beta but the pro does not have. The a14
I haven’t used the iPad Air yet so I cant say, sorry.
@@TheEverydayDad ok but I will wiat for your review ❤
I love your "pretty serious bezels" analogy.
I've been using my iPad Air 3rd gen for a year now, and it's giving so much that I want from an iPad, still having the fingerprint id, headphone jack, smart keyboard and apple pencil capability. 😉😊
I’m an iPad Air user that just happens to be an artist. It’s annoying how you can’t use the Apple Pencil with the iPad I use and I can only use procreate pocket
This guy has serious i pad crush ..lol😂😂
LOL man😂👍❤
I LOOOOOOOOOVE I pads but I hate I phones so I Use a 2020 I pad pro and a galaxy s20 ultra
They are awesome!
Thats Ryt!
I'm same
My favorite 🍎 TH-camr. Greets from Germany!
The iPad Air 4 came out, I prefer that tbh
For photography and video editing, would the pro be a viable choice?
Sure its viable, its not as smooth as video editing on a normal computer but I have plenty of videos showing that it can be done with either.
Thanks!
I have IPad 8 gen and happy with it Alhamdulillah❤️❤️
Another point - iPad pro has got the four speakers and for me the deciding factor...12.9" option only with the pro line! Was originally thinking surface pro 7 and jumped to the iPad pro 12.9"!!!
I'm a fan of Apple products and understand their forward thinking but it's great to have a headphone jack (and more ports in general!) as back-up when bluetooth fails. So from a practical standpoint reducing the number of ports can be a real negative!
Loved your video, thanks for the info.
The 2 main reasons why I prefer the Pro are not even mentioned:
1. Battery lasts longer... and I am sick of my current old iPad with old iPad battery shutting down after tethering internet for hours.
2. I like non-tech people faces when they see the Magic keyboard on action =)
Great video,Nicely edited 👌👌👌
I would go for the ipad regular but I love the magic keyboard too much
The Firewire crapped out on my Ipad and of course it is not repairable. I now have a perfectly good Ipad which I cannot recharge. I am slowly watching it die. The new Ipad pro's USB 3 connection is not wired into the mainboard and is modular. So the high wear component is now repairable which is a big big deal. You wear out the lower cost Ipad's Firewire and you basically have to toss it. If you are curious, look up IFIXIT and their tear down on both units.
Great video as always, I really like your content and you have inspired me to starting up and creating my own channel...keep it up. I'm definitely giving you a like and subscribing.
This absolutely can do 90 or 120 Hertz . The a12z chip is the exact same chip but have 2 cores disabled from the factory
hey, thanks for the info mate!
With the iPad Pro 2021 you get 8 gigs ram and up to 1tb storage with the m1 processor. iPad OS will get a big update and support Final Cut Pro and other desktop apps.
I’m gonna save for the iPad Pro because I use an iPad for movies, shows, social media, games, art, all of my schoolwork, and other stuff. I have an iPad rn and it’s great but I think it’s time for a bigger screen and overall just an upgrade especially with covid where I’m on my zoom meetings, writing essays, and all that stuff on my iPad
I’ve upgraded from iphone xs max to iphone 12 pro max and because the software is same it doesn’t feel like I’ve got a new phone.
Since the ipad also uses the same software I will definitely go for the 8th generation.
Is the ipad 8 good enough for Lightroom?
I've been needing this kinda video and you uploaded! Thank you soo much!!! I love iPads and I think imma wait until apple make big changes to the budget iPad as they did to the iPad air 4 this year! Thanks!💗☺️👍
