How is a month "Long-Term"? No Wonder people think you're supposed to upgrade these yearly.

Makes sense. I am buying my first ipad so will definitely go for the newest just because of the base storage and the little difference between prices of 5th and 6th, but if i already had the 5th i dont think i would update. Thanks for the video!

As an iPad Air 5 owner, I've been thinking the same as you: it's not worth getting the new one. Yet. After WWDC, and we see what's new in iOS and the software - especially the AI - and which hardware you'd need for the experience and features you want, then it might just be worth it after all.

I’m not that fussed what colour a I pad / I phone is, as most usually have covers and you don’t look at the colour when using the product .

[ericalbert]

I would like to see the more vibrant, saturated colors on the iPads. I guess it doesn’t matter too much as I would always have this in some type of protective case. I would just get the color / design on the case

I would love to see more vibrant colours for iPads! Product red would be awesome!

I just got the iPad air 13" for studies since I wanted one as a complement to my brick for a laptop.

[techhubwiltsuk]

Cool review buddy! I’d like to see more colours like the iPad 10th generation

[fflamefiree]

My dad said if I do good in school I can get one! 🤞

No 120hz display in 2024 is just unacceptable

[samanthahieber]

Honestly, while I don't care for muted colors as I love the iMac options. But it's not really going to be a deciding factor on whether I'd buy the device. especially since I'd have a case or in the Magic Keyboard. Color is more important to me on the MacBook since I'll be looking at it more

[EdaTheOwlLadyFan]

This is just my opinion: I kind wish that Apple would make an adaptor of some kind to use the Apple Pencil Pro with the M1 iPad Air! That is the one thing I would love to use for multiple reasons (mostly the find my feature)! But like you said, it doesn’t seem worth it to upgrade the M1 iPad Air to the M2 just for that one thing!

[Kevdog]

I'm an animator and artist. I'm looking at the air now. I would love the 13 Inch. But I am on 10.5 inch pro now. If I got the pro it would be the 11 inch

[TheTeza]

im thinking whether I should buy this one or the 10th gen, because of the apple pencil.

[gioderri]

Great video! Question: Does using Lightroom heat up a lot? Thanks

Hey, what do you recommend iPad Air M2 2024 or iPad Pro 11 4th Generation ?

[ilovejesus]

I just bought iPad Air 13inch I’m coming from iPad mini 5 I hope its way better then mini by long shot.

[luv.az.]

I have the the iPad Air 4 2020, and I’m thinking of upgrading. I use my iPad for art, digital design, note-taking, games, editing, and reading. Should I upgrade to the Air 5 or Air 6? I want something that’ll work great because the one I have now is 4 years old.

[jamess]

I see a lot of flickering when you film the screen of the ipad. Doesn't fill me with confidence since apple's screens have been headache inducing since the ipad 9th gen. I had to send the 10th gen back due to headaches and eyestrain.

[tigger]

I am looking to upgrade for better and faster download. My old ipad pro 10.5 in is A12 core. They say that a M2 is better and faster. I would also like to know if the speakers in the iPad Air are good as the ipad pro 10.5 in., it has 4 speakers, what about the iPad Air? Plus I rather have a touch screen. Do I need to get the keyboard which initially never used it for the 10.5 in ipad pro?
