BAD CHOICE?! M2 11” iPad Pro vs iPad Air 5

This could be the first time EVER, where going Pro might be a better option, EVEN for someone who doesn’t NEED pro features. So the question is - are you better off spending the extra money and getting the 11” M2 iPad Pro? Or is the M1 iPad Air 5 - still a better value.

Now, a lot of times, I don’t talk about the prices until the end, but in this case, it puts things in perspective. So the iPad Air 5 starts at $599 and the 11” iPad Pro starts at $799 - so we’re looking at a $200 difference. But, we’re only getting 64GB of internal storage with the iPad Air 5, vs 128Gb with the iPad Pro.

What's up everyone?! I hope this comparison of the 11” M2 iPad Pro and the iPad Air 5 was helpful. Did I cover what you wanted to know? What else did you want to see or learn about?

[drahmadxmedss]

well, me as a student, will not feel a difference at all between these devices, remember to stick to your budget and don't fall into the deep hole of spending

[LIFELOVER]

What a comprehensive, informative and professional review. It could not be more helpful in the decision making process and it certainly helped me. Thank you.

[alvinpalvin]

I love your tech videos coz you go into deep details when comparing and makes me decide which one is the right one to choose. I remember i watched your video on which mirrorless camera to choose and it definitely makes it easier for me to decide. Thank you! Keep up the good work! Always will turn to your videos when deciding to buy any technology products!❤

[Shane_Kiel]

I haven’t seen such a genuine polished tech comparison in such a long time. Thanks for this!

[veritas.ve.]

Great comparisons. 👍🏻 This video will certainly help a lot of people decide between the two iPads. 👍🏻

[aftertonightjazz]

Wow that case sponsorship ad DID NOT feel like an Ad! That was super impressive. I felt bamboozled into being interested in those cases but I’m not mad about it. Great job!

[RameshKumar-ngnf]

Great informative video as always bro ❤👌
Loved the ESR Rebound Hybrid Case

👌. Its very affordable too. I did a mistake ☹purchasing apple smart folio case 4 months back which is 3 times more expensive than this.
Lessons learnt 😊, will watch more of your videos before purchasing any cases in future 🙏

I have the Air 4 and I use it mostly for drawing. It’s a good size and it does what I bought it for. So I don’t really need to upgrade.

[stargazer]

I bought the base iPad 9.7" in 2018. It has lasted me 5 good years. This year I'm probably going to upgrade on the base iPad Pro 11" so it can last me even more. I figured the 32 gb was too little (and so are gonna be the 64 gb of the new base iPad) and 256 gb seems overkill for the purpose I want it for... So I'm going for the 128 gb iPad Pro. I'm already looking for how to use the LiDAR sensor because I work in the archaeology/palaeontology field! This is exciting!

[stilscarlott]

I was waiting for this comparison video for quite a while! Although the lineup of ipads is still as confusing as ever, M2 pro is certainly looking valuable. Just hope the pricing becomes a bit more reasonable in the next few months. And ofcourse, a great video from you!

[BalancedSpeaker]

Very well done thanks
Just what I needed to make my decision

[jjpark]

Since this is my first ever iPad, I decided why not go for the newest one? Settled on the iPad 11" Pro. Tried both the 11 and 12.9 in the Apple store and the 12.9 is nice... but MAN is it massive! Honestly, it felt comedically large. I felt at that point, you might as well just go for a laptop.

The 11" felt so nice in the hand, and using the apple pencil (which I also bought because I feel if you don't, you're really missing out on a huge feature set on the iPads), it felt so much more natural with the 11". Even when drawing, the 12.9 was nice for the massive screen size, but that was about it. The 11 is the right one for me; my thinking is that the iPad is supposed to be an ULTRA portable device right behind a phone so I went with the smaller one.

Considering the only real difference between the 11 and the 12.9 spec wise is the battery size and the screen, I think I made the right choice. This iPad will literally last me years to come.

Thank you for this video! I have literally spent days upon days trying to figure out which iPad I need. I’m trying to buy for longevity and future proof so that would make me think I would need to buy the fastest one with the better specs. But I’m your every day average user email, web, browsing, very little, but some social media, and lots of streaming so that would lead me to believe that I don’t need everything the iPad Pro offers. Also, I don’t want to waste money if it’s something I don’t need. You told us exactly the differences between the two and why they make a difference. You also explained who needs which model and how much hard drive you might need. So thank you so much! I wish I would’ve seen this video first. Take care and have a great day.

Watching this on a 2016 9.7in pro with 128gb. I’ve gotten my money’s worth and it’s finally time to upgrade. Your video helped a lot. I’ve used this thing at least 4hrs a day the entire time I’ve had it, but I don’t game on it, just some music apps and social media.

[johnmichael]

Air 5 256GB wifi + cellular for me, I am never gonna use the extra performance in the pro but sure as heck will use the storage. I can see how people go for the 120hz display but it was a non factor for my use.

[PeterEmery]

In Australia there is a price difference of A$330 between the 11-in iPad Pro and the 10.9-in iPad Air 5 in 256 GB versions, be that wifi or cellular. The Air has 64 or 256 GB; the Pro 128, 256, 512 GB, 1 TB or 2 TB.

[toannghiemgia]

Thank you very much! Your video of coparing these two devices is very detailed!

[nabeelurrehman]

Thank you once again for insightful and practical review.
based out of Germany and iPad Pro 11 2022 costs €1069 for 128GB.
I still love and learn from you about the external storage options ( Thank you for that video ;) ).
128GB is more than sufficient. for my apple ecosystem i have take 50GBs iCloud services for €0.99/Month.
My work does not demand high transfer of pictures but i am in love with iPad Pro.. ideal size and awesome performance.

Great video! I appreciate the datail and effort you put into these reviews and comparisons. What do you call green card looking thing you use to show the speaker locations?
