ipad switch?? help!

Have you looked into the new 11inch sized iPads? The iPad A16 (11th gen) is all most people need, but if you want to use an Apple Pencil that is on par (and now a bit better) than the mini, faster USB-C port, M4 chip, and that same great 11inch screen, then I'd go for that. If the price is a bit hig

iPad Air vs iPad Pro

For med school purposes (note-taking, PDF and PowerPoints), any iPad (base, mini, Air or Pro) would do. The main differences are in screen quality, screen size, chip, RAM and storage but unless you’re planning on playing video games and editing 4K videos, you wouldn’t feel much difference. It’s the

People who have an iPhone and a MacBook, what do you use your iPad for?

Air M1 upgrade to Air M4 isn't worth it.

I also had the 2018 12.9 IPad Pro and upgraded to the M3 IPad Air. You will see a difference between the 2018 Pro and an M chip iPad (in terms of speed). However, theres not much difference for the average user when going between the M series iPads. If you like the smoothness of the 2018 id probably

The Pro model has 120Hz refresh rate, oled screen, 4 speakers and potentially a faster processor. For lowest cost the iPad Air M3 will give you the magic keyboard b

Art IPad Advice

I'd go with the M3 iPad Air. It's practically identical to the new M4 iPad Air(just with slightly less ram). And it will be supported longer than the M1 iPad Pro. The M3 iPad Air also supports the Apple Pencil Pro which the M1 iPad Pro does not. The Apple Pencil Pro has some nice features like a squ

IPad for studying

Refurbished m2 iPad Air, m3 iPad Air, m1 iPad Pro, m4 iPad Pro, m4 iPad Air or m2 iPad Pro are all good for what you need Also for the best writing experience, I would strongly recommend getting an Apple Pencil 2/pro (depending on the iPad you purchase)

Ipad suggestion for new IT grad ?

You can get refurbished iPads straight form Apple itself: https://www.apple.com/ie/shop/refurbished/ipadCompare iPad's: https://www.apple.com/ie/ipad/compare/ To be honest i would always go for a 256gb version if this is going to be your main device. And for the AI apps you want to run i would not g
