The latest 7th generation iPad has is a nice bump over last years with a larger screen and slightly better specs but what is it like to use? Can it compare to the iPad Pro or even the latest iPad Air in performance?

They really could've come up with a better naming system for iPads.
Yeah, confusing as heck, especially since this and the air look identical to the layman now.
The Air coming back was the biggest mistake and throws the whole thing off. They should have kept that product dead. Have iPad, iPad Mini, and iPad Pro. Heaven for bid they bring the 11” pro down to the $500-600 range to close the gap.
Noblesse Oblige I whole heartedly agree it makes it a nightmare to buy used iPads because it’s so hard to tell which gen it is
Syuna the Air line was gone for a couple of years. Then they randomly brought it back. It’s a useless line of products. The “iPad is the base model that now sells for $329. It’s literally called iPad 7th gen. It’s the 7th revision of the mainline iPad that originally released in 2010. The air should never have come back. It makes the whole line confusing and cluttered.
Bradley Thatcher The air would have been fine, had the ipad 7 not gotten the smart connector. The air’s key difference now is it’s a12 (iPhone XS) vs the ipad 7’s a10 (iPhone 7). The air would have been a great “I want alittle more (gaming, Office work, and higher edu), but not an iPad Pro, bit now the iPad 7 is trying for that same spot.
This is actually my first iPad and I love it!! It’s perfect for sketching & painting! I use it for Instagram 💕 i placed a matte screen on it and it feels like I’m drawing on paper! I have more control with it on it! For the price it’s a Great deal!
Does apple pencil 2nd generation compatible on that?
Jaw Mgd 2nd gen pencil is only compatible with the new Pro unfortunately 😔
@@maianguyen7925 okay thanks for the info😊😞
Does the matte screen reduce the klacking sound of the pen?
Sameee
I have an ipad 6 with 128gb, bought it in march and do art on it DAILY. I also use it for university (for notes and shorter papers, paired with a logitech cover) and it is perfect. I can not imagine a pro being more effective and it is for the most part replacing my laptop. Just some long papers i write at uni and maybe once a month borrow my partners macbook for a task.
So, bottom line, if you are a student/person on the go and wanna do some art, i can highly recommend an ipad!
liab435 i need it for taking notes do you think I should get ipad 7th gen?
@@farahmigdadi1412 well, i have a 6th and can recommand it, so i guess the 7 will be perfect!
There is no brush lag.
@@phuongdao2215 it's not like you're gonna use fresco to write your notes 🤣 did you watch the whole video? The lag is not that bad & disturbing, it also shows only when Brad use it on Fresco
this is going to be on everyones shopping list in December.
Rippinkitten18 wrong.

KingCP08 / Chanjoo Park stfu
Rippinkitten18 no iPad mini 5
I'm seriously considering buying this around then or after. It's the best and cheapest portable drawing tablet I've heard about. It's a screen tablet. This is the only Apple product I'm considering getting after switching to Samsung and my nearly completed Desktop.
I had a 10th gen iPad th-cam.com/users/postUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA . Felt it getting pretty slow at times even after doing a reset. So I am using that as a tablet for my 5 year old son and got this 9th gen version. MUCH faster, a little slimmer, smaller bezels, all around a leap forward. Plus, for the price that’s about $130-$150 cheaper than a current new model this is a nice deal. I look forward to the M-series CPUs coming into iPads which will really help future proof these tablets better but these latest CPUs are pretty strong and should do better to last several years with no compromises.
I do a ton of graphics on my 6th gen iPad. It works like a champ.
then that means the ipad 7 can do the same :) I have an ipad 2 and am trying to upgrade!
Mr.PitVIPER HC Keep an eye out for a deal. I got mine at Best Buy last December and they had $100 off the 128GB model. I’m sure BB, Walmart or someone will do the same.
@@mwinner101 Will do! The iPad performs fine, right? How are the gameplay and general note taking functions?
Mr.PitVIPER HC Works fine for me but I don’t play any games on it. I just use Procreate and Affinity Designer on it. I think the only limitation would be if you want, for example, 5000x5000 px you’re limited on number of layers. For example that size would be a max of 4 layers. There are workarounds for that but that’s a very large file.
i bent my ipad 6th gen
2:36 : That brush was so slow, that the video on my end buffered so hard.
haha
Lmao!
Ha ha.
The iPad 7 drawing is ok I don’t find it slow at all video editing is faster than the iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 and 1GB more of ram I think around just powerful as iPhone X the camera is just iPhone 6 camera the cameras are 5 or 6 years out dated the 10.2 screen is good
😂😂😂😂😂😂
that was the smoothest transition into a sponsor I have ever seen
you obviously havn't seen linus tech tips
Max Jacobs came here to say this 😂
2:43 - Weird tip, but if you turn off rulers it will draw much smoother. It really works for some reason.
40-90 layers!?
When I draw, I usually have one line layer and then maybe 2 or 3 layers for colors and tones. And then I might repeat that for a few background elements. A finished scene may have a dozen or two dozen layers AT MOST.
Not saying there aren't any good uses for a gazillion layers. But for my workflow, I try to keep it as simple as possible. Can't imagine navigating through so many layers.
Same/agree
yea, if u need that many layers u might as well be on a computer
I think you can name ur layers actually.
hahahshsa i usually have like 6 different shading, lighting, and overlay layers
I feel personally attack because I used 60+ layers before and sometime there was one drawing that was 100 layers 😳 but i learn to merge them down and whatnot
2:26 "it's not glitching..." but there's that random dot that appears
If I only was a professional... And oh wait... I can't draw... Still want a tablet with procreate
When you're a casual customer, always go for the pro reviews, then you know what you're buying. Nice video count me in !
I've been looking for a portable option to draw and write on (I have an ancient dumpy laptop that is as heavy as five buses and has no battery life) and your iPad reviews have really helped me look at the options!
I was waiting so much for this video
I would recommend this iPad for people with a tight budget. It’s a very good iPad!
I got mines a couple days ago
@@justsomegirlwithluck2483 Is it good? Is the Apple Pen's latency that bad?
Bokutoe and Akaasfeet no
@@bokutoeandakaasfeet1896 no it's awesome actually!
Of all the tech reviewers, you are by far the best one I've seen, probably cause you actually use these things to the full potential.
Cheers
Great review! I have the iPad Air and I love it. I think this new iPad 7th gen is a great tool for people on a budget who want to be creative, really there’s so much you can do with it!
This is funny, a day ago I was looking at this Ipad. Soon I'm planning on getting it so its convenient that you post it
Thank you for touching on the layer limit in Procreate! That’s been the biggest factor in me deciding which drawing capable iPad I wanted to get
This is a really good review! i like how instead of just talking about the tablet and how it works compared to other tablets you add in the parts for artists and different things that some artits may or may not like! i actually ordered this ipad today and it should arrive Januaray 3rd! This was really helpful for us artists who wanted to know about how the tablet works(art related) i love your videos and keep up the good work!
I love the clacking sound of the pencil on my screen lol
Magical Princess K honestly, same. Like nails clacking on a can, it’s pretty satisfying sometimes
and i love u honey 😘😘😘
Same lol
It’s asmr
@@drillgirl718 creep
I want to thank you because I got this iPad 7th gen 2019 and it's awesome! I've been aiming for the Pro for a long time but in my country it's actually very expensive. So after watching many of your reviews I decided to get this one and I'm very very happy with it. Sure the screen and specs are not the same but I can draw and paint just fine. Took me few minutes to get used to it but even without the paperlike film (I ordered one, hope it arrives for this weekend), it's fantastic! I can even use Spotify at the same time I'm drawing and it doesn't lag at all! So thanks a lot and keep doing this amazing content!
This review was so good, I searched for his review on the iPad Mini 5 (2019) which I'm also considering. Haven't watched that one yet, but I have a feeling I'll enjoy it as much.
I bought my iPad 7 and Apple Pencil 2 months ago and I love it, would totally recommend
0:30 Actually 10.2”
0.5" longer and previous iPad, same dimensions as iPad 10.5", but yes, smaller display :(
He’s right you know.
Daniel Juno who?
TechnoLadz hes talking about the whole ipad not the screen only the screen is 10.2 inches
Wilmary Polanco yes thats true, but he is right though, it’s 10.2 instead of 10.5, it’s great to know the exact size because to artists Screen Size does matter
I'm scared of count all the iPads you've got Brad
just kidding i'm just jealous
I like the new music in the intro! Love the channel, keep it up!
Looking forward to your release- version Sidecar review. Great vid.
Im so happy that ive found this channel, awesome reviews :D :D
Thanks!
It’s almost an Ipad Pro 10.5 2017, but it has 10.2 screen, only 3gb of ram instead of 4 , an A10 instead of 10x processor and have no laminated display. But it’s almost half of the price.
I use a surface book for my art and have been looking for something that I can take on the go and use easily that didn't cost 2200 dollars. This is the perfect video. Thank you.
This review convinced me to get this Ipad a few days ago. big thank
I'm getting it for Christmas. I can't wait to use it! I used my iPad 4 for drawing all these years using bluetooth styluses. I have had my iPad 4 for seven years. Now that it is starting to freeze up on me and lag really bad, it was time for an upgrade. I tried the Apple Pencil in the apple store and it was amazing! It was 100 times better than my bluetooth styluses I was using for my iPad 4. I want to download apps like Adobe Fresco and Affinity Designer and I can't because my iPad 4 is too old. I have Procreate on my iPad 4. When I bought Procreate for my iPad 4, it was $5.99. Procreate and Inkpad are my go tos on my iPad 4. Now they're freezing and lagging and all the drawing apps I have on it are hard to use. I can't wait to get it!
I was thinking of getting the 4th gen. Which is the the earliest iPad that can se affinity designer and Photoshop? Maybe the 5th?
Jody Fortuin get the 7th
Which gens does bluetooth styluses work
I've been anti-apple most of my life, but you're the one that made me look into all your videos using iPads for drawing.
I hate the lack of drag and drop on all apple products. Like I wish I could put all my photos on my phone, into a flash drive via drag and drop onto any computer without having to download iTunes. It kills me bc the iPhone is what I trust for safety and it works seamlessly even being a SE (5), and being 2-3 years old.
How did you go from 10k subs to 200k!? Congratulations 💪love your reviews and art.
I really love the tap tap sound on the ipad😍😍
You nailed it. Watched it on my iPhone and I commented using my iPad 7th Gen. Yes, I bought it after watching your video. I’m not regretting
Me too it came 4 days ago. I like how it draws
watching this on my 2018 iPad lol 😭 why do I feel like apple just makes new products just to say they have something new when it’s not even that different 🥴
My ipad air is from 2013 lmao. I need a new one
I think, as long as your ipad can update the iOS/iPadOS, that should be fine 😄
I really love the way you explain Brad. New big fan of you.
Great video and just what I was looking for ♥️ thank you!
Best part of this review is watching you draw, man! Yes, it’s a bang for the buck thing. And now that we can use a drive or memory card contraption on iOS, the memory limit is not such a big deal...not for an artist anyway. If I had to outfit a small team, say to create artwork for an animation software, (like MOHO) this is how I’d go. But I’m incredibly cheap.
I can't wait for your Sidecar review!
I'm probably gonna get this in July for my birthday and I didn't know that is that tablet good for drawing but this video helped me so much!! 💗
I'm getting this in two weeks and omg i can't wait!!! So excited to finally use it
I bought the ipad 2 days ago and i love it. They say you need paperlike to have more control but i think that's because they draw on other devices with a textured surfaces. If your a beginner on a tight budget you won't even notice!
Actually if you give it a couple minutes you'll get use to it
I just got a iPad 7 th generation and I haven’t set it up yet or took it out of the paper and can’t wait to draw on it
SunfloweerSkyy is it good? Do you recommend buying it, is it good for drawing??
Em Franco yeah I drew on it it’s really good for digital art
@@dekoshastutorials8371 Hey, how many hours does the battery lasts?? And does it heat up when using?
diana mercado mines doesn’t heat up and it depends Im not so sure but mines is dead now lol well half way
Can you notice the lag drawing lines
Best review I've seen till date!
Great video. I was wondering if I needed to save up for the iPad Pro, but your video convinced me that for what I'm going to be doing, this model works for me. Thanks.
If you wanna break Fresco, try a large document! I crippled my 2018 iPad pro when working on a 17" x 22" @ 300dpi document.
@@odinasgard1197 he means 2018
@@odinasgard1197 you're right! I meant 2018-- fixed it. Thanks for pointing that out.
yeah, and that's not even large for a lot of my clients' work (99% print)... Like the "pro" version, a nice toy.
YES GOD YES! BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REVIEW!
great review, thank you!
This helped my make my decision on which iPad to get. Thanks!!
Hii can you review the wacom intuos with android cause they say wacom intuos is able to connect with android
8:30 "do you need desktop apps? if so then no" actually, shadow cloud is on ios now and its really good.
I’ll get this one. I need it most for simple tying assignments, work reports, reading and highlighting including note taking. Looks like this is a bang for the price and easy to carry around, I don’t want a laptop.
Love your videos❤️
The 2018 ipad is about 80 usd cheaper in Sweden. Would you recommend buying the older one and save a couple of bucks or buy the new one?
I am buying this iPad an I liiiike his designn ❤️❤️
I agree it's a good value, my first art set up was a tiny little Wacom bamboo and a netbook, this is so much better and around the same cost.
amazing review thanks!
I wanna see him give his voice to an Anime or even a Disney Animation... I dont care which one, but i need such stuff in my life!
Thanks Brad, good review.
Are you doing anything special for Inktober?
Just scrolling the Instagram and drooling over other people's work :D
Nothing serious or daily, just the occasional ink drawing for fun.
Great detailing I love it channer
Thanks a lot this video is so helpful
"Amazon makes talking rings with better specs than this" 🤣
I didn’t have money to buy a iPad Pro or Air but really wanted a tablet with screen to draw on. Almost everybody on TH-cam seems to use pro version and I thought that maybe the 7th is not that good for drawing. But you changed my mind and now I’m a proud owner of iPad 2019 :333 And so far it’s just wonderful!
Thank you sooooo much, this video was really like a tipping point for me!
do you think 32 GB is enough for art? I want to start immediately. and my country the price difference is huge! what do you think about it?btw i will use just for my art (maybe for take notes too?) and i have never try digital art but i think i won't use so many layers.
@@user-rp9su1bg9x Idk, I got a 128 one :( But I recommend you to search for a used one. It's a tricky thing-you have to check that the seller is decent and check the iPad thoroughly but it will save lots of money. I got my iPad something like 30% cheaper than one costs in shops. And it was basically new, except for some small scratches. But I had to buy a new pencil, because it was more difficult to find a used one
@@user-rp9su1bg9x Also there're deals for students, teachers and parents of students on official Apple site. And refurbished deals also there. It's definitely more reliable source of iPads than to buy from a random person
@@zucchini.symphony i will look a n used one but i don
2t think i can found a good one that's why probably i am going to buy new one but can you check
how much space does procreate take and the files i will just do digital art maybe i will use clip studio paint but that's it and i can use my computer for saving files.
@@zucchini.symphony thanks to you i saw that probably i will buy with that deal. THANK YOU!
I use both my iPad Pro 12.9 2015 and my iPad 2018 for art and both are a a joy to draw on with a matte screen protector. I had to adapt the way I was using layers when I went from a laptop to my iPad Pro, and I again had to adapt from the Pro to the 2018 iPad.
I use Procreate on both and I never had a problem.
Thanks Brad!
Hey Brad, for some reason I’m not getting notified when you upload a new video. Is TH-cam being TH-cam again?
Probably 😂😂😂😂😂
I don't be the notifs either but they always put his new videos on m recommended 😂😅😆
Welp, this one has better specs than my ipad pro from 2016, and that one is still working perfectly fine.
So this new ipad would make a great deal for drawing.
Dmitrii Kniazev the only thing it has better then the 2016 iPad Pro is a slightly faster processor but not necessarily better GPU preformence ( A9X v.s A10) and slightly bigger screen
In every other way the 2016 is a better choice for artists
Would you recommend this ipad for drafting drawings and simple digital artwork? Is it comparable with wireless printers?
Thxs totally getting it
I lost my pencil to cord adapter too :(
Thanks for the long-awaited review, Brad! As many down in the comments - I was waiting for this as I was a bit skeptical after seeing the announcement of this on-paper lackluster iteration that is a bit beefed up iPad gen6. But thankfully it looks like a good choice for a "budget" entry into iPad + iPencil realm.
In that regard - Apple-verse - maybe anyone knows any good pixel-art centric apps in the AppStore? On Android I'm using PixelStudio (Pro) and that is a wonderful tool for pixelarting, but I didn't seem to find any reasonable alternative in the AppStore on iPhone XR that I have currently at my disposal. Any suggestions would be appreciated :)
Pixaki is the way to go to push pixels on the iPad.
Yet another great review brad 👍🏼how many layers with 4500x5400 resolution ? Amazon tshirt merch size
Superb video - thank you :)
After the Adobe Fresco money grab I’m worried they’re going to do the same with photoshop when it finally drops. It frustrates me because I do pay for CC each month but because I don’t pay for the entire suite of apps Adobe still wants me to pay an additional $10 a month for Fresco and I have a feeling they’re going to do the same with photoshop which isn’t right. I pay for photoshop monthly on my computer so to make me have to pay monthly on my iPad also would be pure greed and wrong. IMO.
you have photography plan? The Photoshop CC sub only does include Adobe Fresco in the package
vanezcha yeah I have a photography plan with just photoshop and Lightroom cause it’s all I really need but adobe fresco still wants me to pay the $10 a month for the app.
Agreed this is most definitely greed
I still don't get why people are harried about Adobe Fresco pricing.
What is it about people's current set up that is lacking that is forcing them to switch to Fresco and why do people think Adobe has an obligation to fix it for them for free?
Sean Adams oh I won’t be switching to Fresco. Procreate is miles better still. Fresco is a really great app, but it is NOT worth $10 dollars a month by any stretch of the imagination. That’s what people are upset about. It’s just not worth what Adobe is asking when apps like Procreate exist and it makes Adobe come off as money hungry vultures. I’m obviously not the only person who feels this way either. Not to mention back when Adobe unveiled the app on Apples stage, they stated that if you were a CC subscriber than the app would be free. They never said you had to be a CC subscriber of the entire suite. The main thing though is as good as the app is, it’s not worth what they’re asking. That’s just my opinion though.
I'm getting this for my birthday, I'm so glad you did a review on it. Though I'm not getting the real apple pencil I am getting a stylus, which in my opinion is better then nothing but my finger
Creative Weirdo 12 hey what stylus did you end up getting and how great does it work?
Still loving my ipad 2018.
I’m watching this video on the iPad Air 2 I bought in 2014. I never updated the iOS on this machine. It runs super great. The same performance as when I first bought it. I don’t have any plans of buying a newer model any time soon.
9:55 - wouldn't the iPad Air be just as clacky clacky? I have a first gen iPad Pro and its clacking drives me up the wall.
I haven't used the air, but the mini isn't as bad. Still makes noise, but not as much.
Why is Apple not offering a soft tip along the hard tip that the Apple Pencil currently has? It would be the best of all worlds. I somehow got used a bit to the hard clack on the glass, however there is a community that just would love a softer tip, that feels more like pen on paper, and has a bit more resistance too (less slippery than hard plastic on glass).
And as far as I can see, it would not be an impossible engineering task either. The tip is easily replaceable, there only is no alternative right now.
if anyone is worried about slowdowns i wouldnt be worried. my aunt has an ipad air 2 and its till very fast.
great video like always
please consider reviewing the Samsung tab a8 (2019) with s pen
Why is it this showing up three years later in my feed? I have the 2020 version and i love it.
Hi Brad, you said the apple pencil makes a lot of noise when used on the Ipad 2019, could you please tell me if using the paperlike screen protector reduces that noise by a significant amount?
It should. It depends largely on you as well.
Since paper like is a matte screen protector, how does it affect color accuracy?
Not so much. But it creates a noticeable rainbow effect/reflection (you can see it in reviews). The worst thing that I didn't knew before buying it is that it lowers the resolution a lot. Is annoying when you try to read anything in the browser. The good thing is that it really improves the precision a lot when you use the pencil.
@@dagarou thanks. Accept trade off I guess
Happy with my Air 3
I have this version
Apple iPad (Wi-Fi, 32GB) - Silver (Previous Model) 9.7-inch 2018
for 279.00 and it works for me my art on the go and I can do animation with it as well. I use flipaclip for my rough animation and animatics.
You should change the title: How to draw on ipad 2019 with pencil.
any news on Ipad pro 2019 /20?
we'll hear something at the end of the month in the apple October event.
Yep, like David said, end of month. I don't expect a huge iPad Pro update. Probably the same form factor with a spec bump, maybe camera and screen improvements.
Philip nik its not gonna be a worth upgrade dont understand why apple didnt skip the pro for this year. Because its already years ahead
Brad Colbow does that mean that this gen iPad Pro will decrees in price? There’s a deal I found for a new 256GB IPad Pro for only $799. Wondering if I should capitalize on this deal or wait until after the event
@@thebradcolbow I'm still with the 1st gen Ipad pro, works perfectly, i'll see what they show us.
tnx
Just ordered one !!
I’m receiving mine on Wednesday I’m so excited. I want it use it for note taking more because I hated the amount of paper cuts I get because of using paper
iPads are my favorite device category. Period. They're just so fun and easy to work with, and the portability of them just adds to their greatness as a platform. Also, this is unrelated, but what was Brad drawing?
I got this on Black Friday. With the Pencil and Procreate. I’m watching this video and typing this out on it now as a matter of fact. Love it so far.
Yes! I got it on Black Friday as well, but I have to wait until Christmas to get it, but I can't wait to try it!
Just ordered one and did the Amazon Rewards Visa thing. So total was $196.00 + tax. Thank you!!!
I also put in a purchase request for an iPad Pro for one of my designers at work.
I've been away from Apple since the B&W G3 days, but as someone that stared my career on a Macintosh Plus, I'm looking forward to diving in again. Thanks for your great videos!!!
I also credit my 83 year old Mom, she's a retired art teacher and skilled artist. She got a iPad Pro 3 months ago. I was floored when she showed me what her iPad can do!
I just got this, I'm a newby and want to teach myself digital drawing... by the way any vids on saving final drawings to a specific size for ordering prints online?
Hey Brad I'm A Young Artist Wanting To Work On My Digital Art Skill But I Can't Afford The Ipad Pro So Im Checking Out Reviews On Lesser Ipads.
Please make a tutorial on how you draw, i like your art style. Bought one of your course at udemy i love it but it’s still lacking for me. I want more, like making a character design
look up Mitch Leeuwe on instagram, he has many tutorials for character design. Check him out sometime if you want :)
@@AnaDMTL thank you so much. Planning to buy his course this Christmas
@@beerhigh04 he is really good! I'm glad :)
You had my like from the Moment you made the gif joke and pronounced it right
