Can wait to use that powerful M4 chip to watch TH-cam on it
In HDR!
🤣🤣🤣
Be sure to do it in bed to ruin sleep quality and feed your TH-cam addiction. (I’m talking about me)
To be fair there is at least *five* apps that can take advantage of the hardware lol. Maybe 10.
@@PSYCHOV3N0M Is this HDR you mention better than Technicolor?
@@ghost-user559 And there are also several people who actually use that kind of performance.
Black charging cable comes with the 11” iPad Pro as well though. You just have to choose the Space Black color.
How did Dave miss this 🤣 love you Dave
bro didn't even consider the 11" came with a white cable because it was the silver model
He is missing a lot of things lately. Possibly early dementia
@@chrisak49 LMAOO, that's brutal
@@chrisak49 this is an INSANE comment 😂
Dave: "2018 iPad Pro"
Me (mentally): Oh, 2 year old iPad
Dave: This thing is almost 6 years old at this point
Me: *realization*
Indeed 💯
Same bro my mind is still stuck in 2020😭😭
same
We are still stuck in 2020 I thought the same thing!
@@RomanceWeebgodmy mind literally never advanced from 2020. I perpetually live in the year 2020. That was 4 fucking years ago.
This review helped me realize my M1 iPad Pro is still more than enough for me. The whole filming/streaming thing is amazing but doesn't apply to me at all. Thanks Dave for always delivering unique perspectives on this stuff.
Same, I’ve been thinking about updating as I’m a bit addicted to having the latest tech. But I think I’ll stick with my m1 iPad Pro 12.9. Sounds like the mini led is good enough not to feel blown away by the OLED.
I’m in the same boat. M1 iPad pro. The screen still looks amazing to me. I only really use it as a secondary display or watching Netflix
Yeah I agree. My 2020 iPad Pro 13 is fine. Unless Mac OS is available then I don’t see a reason to upgrade.
Agree. It would be great to boot Mac OS.
I think if my MacBook has a native Netflix app that I could download films and series on for flights and travel, my iPad would become redundant. Looking forward to seeing the m4 and OLED creep into MacBook. Would love to see it on the air but know they’ll hold it for the MacBook Pro.
Also the trade in values on our iPad is pretty strong. That’s the one thing that’s tempting me… but then I think I don’t want to have to buy another pencil on top of it etc. I don’t get why Apple couldn’t support the old pencil. Even if it couldn’t charge the pencil, I’m sure there could be ways to charge it externally.
I almost exclusively use my m1 12.9 ipad as a 2nd display with my MacBook. I've barely taken any notes since I graduated, I don't read mangas anymore and consuming media on my phone is more comfortable for me than using the ipad. I also have to remind me to charge the pencil in fear of deep discharge. It feels weird using this behemoth of a powerful device almost only as a monitor. Maybe I should sell it.
The embargo lifting is insane, everyone literally uploads iPad reviews/unboxes within seconds of each other its crazy
I’m surprised mkbhd is late
It's always like that with new releases.
@@freddypauljoel7765 Fashionably, I'm sure.
they can schedule the time for the video to be made from private to public for people to watch
not really that insane tbh, every reviewer gets the product weeks ahead so they can fully film the review ahead.
You just have to upload the video ahead and make it available for public at the embargo lift time.
dave talking about the multicam setup is the most hyped i've seen him since the m1 debut. now i'm hyped to see the setup.
yeah spent half the video on something 99.99% wouldn't care about
I mean it seems like a cool idea, but I feel like with a studio like his, why doesnt he just get some real hardware video switchers? ATEM + stream deck with bitfocus would run his set up pretty nicely.
I enjoyed his enthusiasm but that doesn't really justify his upgrade based on an unreleased feature...
@@MoChuang343 Because it will cost much more than the iPad, will be much more bigger and not as easy to use for a single person. It would be an extreme overkill.
@@yixe2253that was literally 3 minutes out of a 14 minute video😂
i believe the only reason the 13 inch pro has a black cable is because its colour matched, considering you have the space black 13 inch and the silver 11 inch, it may make sense
Oh man i love this guy. Just pure video edited in real time, no stupid cuts every second and no “right after word feom today sponsor blah blah” 🙄 YOU ROCK! 😍
I also love him. Amazing content
Wouldn't it make more sense that the 11 inch didn't have a black cable because it wasn't the black variant and your 13 inch model was!? Or am I missing something here?
yeah, probably just a mistake on his part
Yes, that’s exactly the case as per Apple’s website. Just an oversight in the video.
literally who gives a F 😂
Also, I think Dave mentioned that those were not precisely retail units... Correct me if I'm wrong
Its so ugly the brick should be black too
your niece togepi drawing is so beautiful!
This is kind of the first iPad review I saw that explained how the iPads could be used for the actual pro workflows other than the drawing ones. You never fail to bring the best out of your reviews man! Always a fresh perspective!
First video I’ve ever watched and I have been missing out on your content. This is great quality! Thank you!
As a daily iPad Pro user, the "Magic" keyboard is the bane of my existence. Not because the hardware is bad, or because of the missing keys, but because iPadOS just does not like to work with physical keyboards, first-party or not.
For example, to use the password manger, I have to remove the keyboard so that the virtual keyboard would show up which contain the password-auto-fill button. In addition, almost every app I got does not work well with it. The keyboard overlay menus would block whatever in the bottom right corner (like the "send" button of a messaging app). That overlay also often cause the UI of apps to glitch out; at which point, I would have to un-dock/re-dock the thing.
So... I don't care if things are changing, I will care when they are changed.
They have a faster processor now though, lmao.
Yeah, Apple software quality is falling off of a cliff, along with hardware fragmentation.
They still have a lot of mojo, but in many places they're becoming one of the other manufacturers.
Yes I thought I would use a lot more but this just is so annoying. Also because of the os whatever they do this can't replace my Mac as a software developer
wow that is unexpectedly cumbersome
You can pick up the keyboard UI bubble and move it around. Move it to a corner to have it tiny and out of the way, flick to the other corner if there's a send button in the corner you need. Then drag it to the middle to get the big UI with the auto fill passwords and other suggested auto fills and flick it back away once you are done. No redocking required.
You don’t need to remove the iPad from the keyboard to use the password auto-fill. I use iCloud passwords all the time. Maybe try enabling predictive typing? Not sure why you’re not seeing passwords at the bottom of the screen.
Great video as always Dave. Really love your reviews
I appreciate your openness and honesty about your review. It's not like you're selling. something you're just being open.
I could watch Dave talk about his experience of watching paint dry and still enjoy his thoughts. Such a genuine person. Keep the great content coming please, sir.
New haircut dave?
every youtubers need du*b viewers like that... this was a hard video to watch
@@YasinHasansomebody’s angry Dave has more subs👀
@@KGil60yeah dude is always negative
14:36 omg the “thumbs if you liked it, subs if you loved it” came back😭😭 I’m crying in joy
Same 😭😭
Missed this so much 😂
Lolol
I appreciate your hard work, thank you man. Keep it up
I got a black braided wire with my 11 inch M4 iPad Pro also. 😅 But having spent a couple of days with my M4 iPad Pro, I can’t help but feel the M4 capability is being limited by the OS. Perhaps an updated iPadOS just for the iPad Pro?
Are you sure the different cables aren't because the 13" you have is space black and the 11" you have is silver?
sure
2018 iPad was such a game changer. I've yet to find a reason to upgrade, even with these new ones.
Was just about to post the same thing.
2018 pro I use daily for school, homework, and watching youtube/ shows.
Can't find a reason to upgrade with these new devices.
We will see if WWDC will bring iPadOS 18 updates that make a difference. I really think Apple wanted something with the 3E (M4 and A18 Pro) available to test some iOS and iPadOS AI features that won’t be on the 3B architecture (M3 and A17Pro) chips.
Treat yourself? Lol.
I wish they would finally add some cool, or dare I say, useful features. None of this “more power” crap
Still rocking a 2018 daily, it's my go-to at home for TH-cam/TikTok, browsing, messaging, email.. use it on a stand for recipes, great for viewing photos. Still snappy and the screen is great but man.... I am really looking forward to an OLED screen.
Wow! You do all this all by yourself...I would have thought you have atleast 3 other people with you in your studio to shoot your vids...That's awesome Dave!
Great insight, really appreciate your reviews 👍
Aight, I see that fish tank in the background. Give us a fish tank tour!
I second this
He did on studio tour no?
Yes
agree, tell us about your fish tank
Well aren't yall new here😂
3:55 are you editing on the fly? that's amazing haha
10:50 ish
@@Boomarov ah I commented before I got to the end
yoo chippy whattup
Thank you for an honest review I have the mini led I pad and would only upgrade if it was truly worth it to get oled screen I think I will wait a bit, as you said you have to put them side by side to see the difference. Great job mate. Thank you
the black cable came with the 13 inch because you got the black version. If you got the 11 inch in black, it would've had a black cable too
"I'm not going to bend them"
I know someone that will absolutely do it haha
we all know lmao, can't wait to see the deeper grooves at level 7
LMFAO
Only stupids and careless dumbs bend expensive tech. Oh, and TH-camrs to collect dumb people views before they return them within the 14days or under Apple care+
“iPhone 6 bends when I put it in my back pocket and sit on it”!!! Because nothing tech should be in the back pocket when you’re sitting dumdum! Jeans are not good because they’re gonna be torn when you sit on a knife! 😂
you know Jerry Rig is just salivating over that bend test 🤤
I saw the thumbnail for the Jerryrigeverything video right before I clicked the Dave2D one!
i can't lie, i enjoyed every second in this video
the way you split screen the light the way you talk, really man well done
keep up
Hey I might have missed but which video do you walk through your new setup? Taking some notes on some items and workflows for myself. thanks!
Actually Honor was the first manufacturer to use this tandem oled display tech for a handheld device. They put it in the Honor magic 6 RSR phone
Americans don't know that China exists
Exactly, but since N.A. barely has any exposure to Chinese phones, he may have missed it.
I on the other hand read GSMArena almost daily so am up to date!
@@sushimshah2896 Yhh agreed haha, and I got that info from there too.
Hope you can keep us posted for your setup switch from Mac to iPad. Sounds very interesting and I am actually blown away that you do the editing in one single take! awesome
Thanks. most honest review ive seen so far.
I do understand now how your videos are so qualitative and how you step up everytime (been like 5+ years I watch your videos)
Running and manage four cameras is insane 🤯
Thanks as always for your work
Appreciate your thoughts, but the thing that you could've stressed on is the fact that the elephant in the room is iPadOS. It simply doesn't host powerful enough apps to really exploit the chip inside it, and that's why it seems mostly similar to the 2018 iPad despite being much more powerful on paper. The strengths you mentioned are real, but are for a niche audience nevertheless: the iPad would still struggle to be a great portable computer because of its OS. In that sense, the processor thing is just flashy and of little use.
It's up to the developers to make pro apps for the os. They don't need to change the os. I don't understand why people want them to turn it into a MacBook. Yes touchscreen this touchscreen that. It'll just make the other insignificant.
This is false. Tons of creative apps and games make use of the performance. Just because you don’t use it doesn’t mean others don’t
M4 is aimed as a marketing ploy
@@johnmyviews3761 nope
@@chidorirasenganz Name a few that show noticeable difference between the M1/M2 iPad Pros and the new ones.
Excellent hands on Dave , thanks mate .
I am typing this from my new iPad Pro 11” and it came with the black cable. I downsized from 12.9 in because it gets too much with a 15-16”laptop. Thinner and less weight is amazing. Its more for multimedia consumption, browsing, reading, etc
I really appreciate your perspective here, I also have a 2018 ipad pro and I'm in the same boat, I have never really seen a reason to update. I still dont need a new one and it seems like you really have a legitimate reason to get the new one and I hope it works out as well as it did in the demo.
I love your review. Very concise and to the point.
Incredible value in comparison to other first impressions videos about these things ❤
Hey Dave! Which app are you talking about for the multi-camera set up? i do similar workflows and seems like a useful app i could research about! thanks!
Wait...the thumbs and subs line is BACK!?!?!?! 🥳🥳🥳 I feel you with the 2018 iPad Pro. I have one and still don't feel a need to upgrade. Same with my M1 MacBook Pro. One day, just not needed yet. Hope it works out for your setup! Would be a neat vid to watch how you get everything working on th new iPad.
I always enjoys your review. FAST, ACCURATE AND STRAIGHTFORWARD.
Upgrading from an iPad Air 2, very excited to see how much of an update it is!
I enjoyed those last minutes his enthusiasm! Keep it up
Seems to be the only honest review of these iPads so far. Thanks 👍🏾
Awesome review! Always love your energy
I love your wallpapers! How can I get them? Great review as always.
Your Videos are the BEST. So natural . The way you talk is very honest and easy to understand(especially the hand gestures, LOL)
He does have the best hand gestures. ;-)
the review i need! 2018 12.9 iPadPro bits of comperation
video production on one ipad taking inputs from multiple cameras at the same time: unimaginable just a few years ago.
also didn't expect that to be the reason to be upgrading to this ipad
It was really interesting seeing your camera set up. Looking forward to the iPad wireless set up video.
Yo would love to see you walkthrough your new setup and how it works. Your excitement for this new setup is adorable haha.
The first review of the iPad Pro that I saw was from one of the popular reviewers, and I'm really glad I did!
Love your reviews, dude ❤
Really looking forward to a follow up video once you get your setup! I'm really hoping it makes your process more efficient!
Great review and very helpful side by side!
I think the black cable is to match the color of the iPad... As I'm sure you were trying to get this out that just slipped your mind. Great review, excited for mine to get here! I think they were using 4 iPhones, definitely looking forward to see if you can get it working with the other cameras!
Do you know if the Final Cut Camera app can control cameras other than iPhones? …or are you going to switch your FX3's (30's?) out for iPhones too?
Good to see you after a long time
I really loved seeing your camera set up, I always notice your hand go off the screen to change the layout and wonder what you're using. As for your idea, how are you going to send the video from your 4k camera's to the ipad wirelessly? Also, I'm not convinced a single ipad (even an m4) would handle 4 4k streams seemlessly. Anyway. Love the videos Dave. Please do an update on your setup when you get your ipad rigged up!!
Isn’t the live multi cam Final Cut app, just for iPhone use?
How would it connect to other cameras wirelessly 🤨
Yeah same question
Edit: it is
Correct. I think he implied that with the “wireless” comment. Plus he saw it demo’d live in person, so I imagine he knows this.
I haven't looked into iPad specific implementations, but from what peripheral knowledge I have in the imaging industry, there are already wireless HDMI transmitters. So you would plug the wireless transmitter into the HDMI output port of your camera. Typically, in the professional industry, these would use their own proprietary radio standard, and the signal is then received with another device that is then connected to a monitor via HDMI.
I'm fairly certain I've seen online products that will just have the transmitter plugged into the camera turn itself into a WiFi hotspot that an iPad can connect to, but I have no first hand experience with them, and I would imagine there would be a signal camera limitation in that case.
I'm not sure if such a product currently exists, but if there was a wireless HDMI receiver device with WiFi hotspot capability, then it would theoretically be possible.
--
I would imagine latency would be worse with this, but theoretically possible:
-multiple proprietary radio, low latency radio transmitters hooked up to each camera
-multiple proprietary radio, low latency radio receivers to pair with the above
-each of those receivers connected via HDMI to a multi-video-input device/controller/manager
-the output of that controller into a single HDMI output, which is then connected to an HDMI to WiFi hotspot device, which the iPad wirelessly connects to
2018 pro still going strong too 💪
That’s awesome. I have an iPad 8 so this jump to this m4 iPad I’m hoping will last me a good 6-8 years if not longer.
@@josejose2100 I just gave mine to my daughter because she started to learn how to draw on iPad. The only issue after 6 years is a battery life
This was so interesting! Thank you
What case do you have on your 2018 11"? It looks really nice.
The old apple pencil works with the new ipads, but the new apple pencil doesnt work with the old ipads. Funny isn't it?
Can't wait to use that obscenely powerful M4 chip to watch more Dave2D
How would you have all your sony cameras wireless? If it’s using the cameras Ad Hock wifi I wouldn’t expect it to work reliably. Curious to see if it works!
Nice review, thank you. I think I'm going to get one today.
I always appreciate Dave's honest reviews! @Dave2d, please show us your new setup on the iPad once you get it going!
Is the black charging cable not because you got a black 13", and a silver 11"? They seem to be colour matched.
I'm really curious whether you can get the 2nd gen Apple Pencil to sync with these. And whether the 13" Air works with the new Magic Keyboard
From what I remember reading only the Apple Pencil Pro works with the new iPad Pros
Yes apple pencil pro works both on iPad pros and ipad airs
Awesome honest review! New subscriber here🎉
Hey Dave
with the new ludicrous M4 upgrade,
does it support output of 120hz to external monitors though?
4k 120hz to be exact.
A bit dizzying and jarring for me to let my eyes keep changing from the 120hz ipad to a huge external 60hz monitor.
Awesome, thanks Dave, just what I needed two days ahead of it arriving at my doorstep. 😂
I don't get it, isn't this multi camera iPad feature only for iPhones cameras? So you'd be switching your professional mirrorless cameras with a bunch iPhones? Which when added up will be around the same price as a maxed out Mac Studio?
The black charging cable does come with both the space black 11" & 13" iPad Pro
I love your reviews! You don't overhype stuff! TH-cam needs more of that! :)
It has still iPadOS. So it's still not a full system like in Mac Studio etc. And it is Apple. Their marketing is sometimes much better then product.
Than.
NOT then.
If you have a Samsung phone get yourself a video capture card and you can use the IPad Pro 11 as a monitor for Dex when you have work to do, the Tab 9 Ultra is far too big to be carrying around whereas the Pro 11 is just the right size and you also have access to iOS along with Android.
@@InimitaPaul that's the dumbest idea ever
@@gorgeluis What’s even dumber is making a claim like that without backing it up.
@@InimitaPaul i dont think you need to back up a claim like that. its a really dumb idea. sorry man
I am sooo ready for that OLED screen… Maybe I am hyper-focused on the details but the black levels between the mini LED and OLED are immediately apparent.
And no more blooming!
I use my iPad mini in the dark in bed and many times I wish the black was not grey.
He really undersold the quality leap with OLED. LCD is much more washed out.
The 11" iPad Pro (in space black) also comes with the black charging cable. It's shows the color of the charging cable on apple's website during checkout (the "what's in the box" section)
Thanks for the insightful review, Dave. The reason I have not been upgrading is because of the "limited" features on apps on iPad. For example, I use Excel quite extensively and there are a number of features not available in the iPad Excel app even though I am using the Office 365 which supposedly the same as the Mac or Windows versions. Anyway, hopefully the day will come I can make a switch like you. That will be the dream because traveling with an iPad is definitely a lot easier than bringing a laptop.
Jerry rig is going to see some iPhone 6 flashbacks
🤣
Glad to see OG hair Dave is back
Mad Scientist Hair Dave needed a lie-down.
Hey Dave, The demo you saw is 4 iphones connect to iPad or any 4 cameras?
Hey Dave, I get it the multi cam function is native and Logic Pro ready but have you considered or tested apps that promises to do this on the store already? Recently I've had similar need on a smaller scale and found out this app called Detail (or Details I think) which is a fancy OBS but did the job connecting phone, pad and MacBook m1 together nicely.
This is simply the best insight into these new iPads. As always, thanks.
big up dave man, legend
A legend in his own mind.
Legend? He’s a quack
The multicam stuff seems super cool, would it work with your existing cameras though? Or would you have to shoot on like iPhones?
The charging cables are colour matched with the iPad, so black for Space Black and white for Silver. Then there’s a cleaning cloth only for the nanotech display only. I like Dave’s style of content, not just repeating what Apple said on stage but giving an insight on the products.
Wow, I did notice in the beginning of the video your camera record arrangement you before you explained it at the end of the video. Felt we're really connected
I do look forward to your video about these setups, which I feel you also would share.
If you're not drawing something, just get the MacBook Pro. iPad OS will never catch up with a proper computer system like MacOS or Windows for productivity work.
Wholeheartedly agree
That's so true
why don't they put touch screen on MacBooks?
@@balddog470 mac os isnt a touch friendly OS. the experience would suck
Yeah maybe I will get m3 MacBook 14 that will be cheaper and way more powerful
For the Final Cut workflow, does it work with the cameras you have or is it only with iPhones as the cameras?
hey bud.. so i really love your videos. but i wanted to ask you a question. of topic, but how do you get that split screen animation? Thank you so much in advance!!
$3425 for the 13" here in Sweden (with keyboard and pen) is a bit steep especially $600 for 512GB extra storage. All of you buying Apple are insane!

looks like M2 is better deal. also I have durability concerns about OLED.
