You shouted out the 12-inch MacBook! Before upgrading to the M2 Air, I used one of those exclusively to basically run our small church. We still use it at our A/V booth to control the media and record audio of the sermon during the service. I know people bashed that computer all the time, but it was more capable than people realized. An M-series chip in that hardware would be awesome!

The13” Pro is not a behemoth anymore. I am enjoying it so much more than my M2 11” pro, that is hard to believe. A few years ago, I bought the M2 Pro 12.9” and it was a monster; as much as I wanted the mini-led display at the time, it was not possible for me to the point of hand, arm or shoulder pain, so I returned it. The new 13” model, is surprisingly different. It is not just marketing. Only because I am still waiting for the 11” with nano-texture, just in case I tried the 13” and I am bedazzled:

1. The tandem OLED is beyond expectations, visually superior (by far) to the mini-led XDR, which was Apple’s best iPads display.

2. The thinness of the 13” and the weight reduction is enough to actually enjoy it as a tablet. The size is immersive.

3. I wouldn’t know just by watching videos, you have to experience it. If really in doubt, buy different models, decide and return the rest! Your own experience is invaluable.

4. So many of us want a mini with OLED!!!

Thanks for the video Jon, I bought before watching it but these videos are always useful.

Great video as usual! I’m loving my new 11inch iPad Air 6(M2).

[SPFboy]

I agree with you, there's a size for everyone for different use cases. For me, the 11" seems to be the perfect size as there are many accessories for it, comfortably able to browse and write emails, great for watching videos, reading books and taking notes, still very portable for travelling.

Carried the 12.9 M1 for 2 years. Now I have the M4 11. The 11 is the better size for me. Having experience with both, don't really find I'm missing anything with the 11.

Bought a second-hand 256gb mini 6 for 500 euro, loving the experience of using in both landscape and portrait! Great for YouTube, games and taking notes.

I have the iPad mini, 11 inch, and the new 13inch. The 13inch is the best iPad I ever had. Yeah its big but makes me do more productive things besides youtube. Gave my iPad mini to my daughter and I use my 11inch from time to time.

I went with iPad Pro 11 inch M2 model along with Apple Folio Keyboard, absolutely love this product (watching this on my iPad right now lol). That being said I bought this from Apple right before these new M4 models were announced and have zero regrets especially with those high prizes they priced them at, I spent a little over $500 for both my iPad Pro M2 and Folio Keyboard with my trade in included. Very satisfied and will keep this for years to come .

I've had the iPad mini 6 since it released and I still use it daily for content consumption. It's the perfect companion to my MacBook Pro.

Thinking m4 11 inch for my 1st ipad after going android for years

I’m waiting impatiently for the new Mini, as it’s the form factor that suits me. Yes, I’ll probably be paying more than I should, but anything bigger would probably spend most of its life in a drawer.

I’ve also just upgraded from the XS to a mint condition iPhone 13 Mini (with the same footprint as my iPhone 7). The two devices definitely complement each other.

Thanks for the content.

I had a mini since 2013. I had the 1st gen, 4th gen, and 5th gen. I finally upgraded to the iPad Air 11” M2 and I gotta say, the size is welcoming. I don’t know, something about the mini 6th gen just wasn’t enough for me to upgrade from the mini 5th gen. I guess throughout the years my use case have changed. I got the mini originally back in college when I needed a e-reader my textbooks. Now, I mainly watch YouTube, movies, check out social media and web browse. I held the mini 6 and it just felt too small. Never thought I would say that.

[micahschupbach]

I finally got the iPad mini. Just thought I’d let you know

[SamiulIslam-pdyj]

Mini remains the best even in 2024. Does everything you want an ipad to do and the M series chips are useless. If you want M series at it’s best, get a macbook

[moin_games]

Thanks for that comparison! I really want to upgrade my 9th generation iPad to an iPad Air M2 because of the better processor and the new Apple Pencil pro. I was really unsure about what size to get but after this comparison I’m more likely to go with the 13-inch iPad. I think multitasking, note taking in class and also drawing will be easier with this device.

[AlexVassiosOfficial]

I have been using the Mini for notes and general productivity for my business. Just got the 13 inch Pro and it’s a little overkill. I think the 11 inch with Magic Keyboard is going to be my new go-to for meetings and basic productivity. Then I can leave my 14 inch MBP at home….or maybe I’ll just stick with my mini as my main travel device. Can’t decide yet.

Great review, I have the 2018 iPad Pro 12.9 & it is the best option for emails, split screen & easy to listen to music, so on & so forth.

[Mohtellawi]

I have the mini 6, honestly I think the 11'' one was the perfect size

[RobertMayfair]

My 12” MacBook just finally quit working. I wish they’d bring it back
