I thought Apple’s thinnest product ever was the polishing cloth 🤔

😂

Hey my main question and concern is about the battery; it’s smaller on the 13 inch, so how does it compare?

I thought long about this Nano glas but decided to go with the regular one for sharpness and contrast

Where you able to do a speaker comparison between the old vs. new iPads? If so what did you discover?

My little brother pre-ordered the newest iPad Pro 13 inch in the colour silver 256gb on the 7th of May and he got it today and he loves it and its beautiful 😍 😍 I think it's perfect for university thanks for the video ❤️

The m2 ipad pro 12.9 is the best big ipad to currently buy based on the overall value. Not even close

[CatServant]

What’s the comparison with respect to RAM?

What is AV1 decoding? If i create video, how does it help? Why does it matter?

[amehirelanda]

One thing my new M4 iPad can do that the ones before couldn’t is playback 5k H 264 video!! Runs smooth on this iPad

Comparing camera almost nobody uses and zero comparison of speakers given the difference in chasis??

[dman]

curious where the line goes from here, esp with the deletions. dont think they can get much of any thinner or lighter and it's a Pro product, not an Air product. i dont want them to lose the USB-C port and that'd be necessary for any further meaningful reduction

I like iPads for reading and watching movies so this new iPads will be good because of its build it so slim and it will not make my hands feel tired like the video thanks for your work

[ytuser]

How does the display compare with Samsung S9 tabs?

I think it would be helpful for viewers to have a sound comparison test.

This video is a bit of an exaggeration, I purchased the new 13 inch and while it is an upgrade, it’s a very small one. My 2020 iPad screen was broken and honestly, I would be sending one this back, since that let down. If my other one wasn’t broken would be back. You literally have to have the screens right next to each other to see the small difference. My new one just came in today and I was kind of expecting to be blown away but it’s really no different at all than my 2020 iPad Pro. If you’re thinking about upgrading and don’t have to, I just don’t see the point. Oh and the new speakers built-in, kind of suck. I think it has to do with the fact that they’re trying to make it so thin, but there is a noticeable drop in speaker quality that hit me right away.

What M4 chip were those bench tests on? Just curious if the 3 performance cores on the 9 core M4 preforms that much better than the 4 performance cores on the M2. I don’t plan on going into the TB level for an iPad.

Is it recommended to add a screen protector?🤔

[jlmemo]

Almost pulled the triggered and bought the 13 today but I already have 12.9 M2. can anyone else notice a real difference with the displays as this would be the main factor for me

[yabani]

Would like to see a comparison between ipad pro m2 vs ipad air m2 🎉🎉🎉

You also forgot that millimeter wave was removed from the new M4 iPad Pro.
