      Plus it was very funny as Samuel kept repeating this sentence too many times, more than necessary.
      Missed opportunity though: Show a counter, rising with every word „day“ spoken out. Ding ding ding (the sound of old cash registers), the numbers add up, like counting money…
      Or show the name of the weekdays.
      But even without it, it was still very funny.

    Dear friends, if your children still use an iPad, enable the color filters in the settings to grayscale. They will be able to watch the same cartoons, but it will have much less impact on their dopamine system. It will also be less interesting, as the world around them is colorful while the iPad is black and white.

    Am absolutely astonished how fast your hair grows back after a cut multiple times throughout the video. Immaculate. Great Video.

    Had also the iPad Pro 2018 and replaced it with an iPad Pro 2022 M2 and I can feel the speed update. Happy so far especially I only paid 300$ on top for my sell and buy

    I’m really glad you made this video. I need to upgrade because I want to use an iPad on conjunction with my MacBook Air 15. I’m upgrading from an iPad Air 2. I want to be able to use the new Apple Pencil with gestures (double squeeze for eraser). Can I get away with the iPad Air M2 or should I get the iPad Pro M4?

    What case(s) do you use on your ipad? I saw the magic keyboard but there's another case in that 2018 ipad, isn't it?

    Watching on my 2nd gen iPad Pro. I was thinking battery replacement and now I am definitely going that route.

    I’m still using 12.9 first gen iPad Pro for music production, video editing, and drawing.. it still has plenty of life in it..but I’m saving for the m4 so it’s future proof and last me 8-10 years lol I really enjoyed your video big ups.

      I’m on first gen as well, waiting till it dies… by that time I’ll be able to get an m4 on discount or second hand for much less. No need to spend anything while it’s still holding up this well.

    I’ve got a 2020 12.9 pro and a 16inch MacBook M1 Pro and as a creative I don’t see the need to upgrade anything for atleast another two years and will certainly be putting a new battery in the iPad when it comes time

    My first time watching your videos and I loved it! I recently upgraded from a 2020 pro 11inch to a m4 in 13(I always had the smaller pros but with “all this new power” I thought I’d go with a bigger size. And before my upgrade, I practically live on iPad. Both my Windows PC, which I use for gaming when I’m not gaming on my consoles And my iMac barely see a few hours out of a week because my iPad does all my personal business and entertainment outside of my Apple TV. I personally love the outlet display. I do notice that my older iPad could do just about almost everything that my new iPad could do, but the M4 to me hand those things way better- for example I am mobile gamer and I can play on it longer before the graphics and FPS start to throttle after hours of play- Play games like League of Legends Wild Rift, Pokémon UNITE, assassins Creed Mirage, ZZZ, genshin impact, Minecraft, Xbox cloud and ps5 remote play, and more so on the game front, you would actually notice a difference. And yes, I agree Michael does not need to be on the iPad, but I do feel like more apps and games on Mac should be ported over, and another big reason I love my M4 over my 2020 iPad is stage manager and external display- and now I use my Mac almost never because I can just external display out by iPad and run most of the things I want to do. There is other little things that add up but for sure the iPad Pro from 2018 and higher was definitely made to last for years and they have done such a good job- so imagine people with M4 in the next six years, we will have an even harder time thinking about upgrading, even though we want to!
    Overall, I loved my new iPad and could not go back, but I can understand some people who would have a hard time seeing the difference and would be fine with older iPads.

    I don’t need the latest for sure, but I got the 13” and 11” because I to carry both back and forth and for me many commutes and anything lighter and thinner is a must for me.

    I think for me, the new Apple Pencil pro is enough for me to want to go M4. That squeeze function is just too good.
