Love my 2018 12.9. With the Apple Pencil 2 and Magic Keyboard, it has become the most versatile device I’ve owned. Plus, design wise it looks identical to the M1 iPad Pro and the peripheral accessories are the same for both devices. Really goes to show how far ahead the 2018 iPad Pro was.

I’m waiting for wwdc. At this point I’m very happy that I didn’t order the new iPad. I’ve been extremely pleased with my 20 18 12.9

This is the comparison I’ve been waiting for. I still have my 2018 version. Great comparison man. And i like that you give actual details of the pros and cons without just saying fluff words.

The 2018 iPad Pros are a great value now. I just picked one up from Apple's on-line refurbished site: 256GB, new battery, new aluminum case, 120Hz screen, four speakers, face ID, and full 1 year warranty for $599. For the same price I could have got a new M1 Air with 64GB memory, no face ID, and two speakers. I'm using it primarily for taking notes, outlining development projects, and reading technical documents. For the price it can't be beat.

I've been holding onto my iPad Air 2, but bit sluggish for multitasking and normal usage. Until I got the M1 11" iPad Pro 2 months ago... it changed my life for good :)

I bought my used 2018 iPad Pro 11 last summer. I love love love it. I have no intentions of upgrading yet.

I don’t have the magic keyboard. I just have a keyboard folio and an Bluetooth mouse. The pencil is great too.

The only issue is that I still need a MacBook. So I bought a base MacBook Air M1 based on your reviews. It’s fantastic.

Thanks for your work, I appreciate you!

The best way I could explain to someone the new XDR display vs. The old models was taking my old iPhone 6s and having it side by side to my iPhone 12 OLED display. That way they could see how the blacks varied.

Actually the 2017 iPad Pro also already had 120 Hertz. So it wasn‘t exactly the first time in the 2018 model. ;-)

Agree with you overall. With the iPad Pro M2 it‘s basically the same story today.

As an iPad main, what are your biggest pain points with iPadOS14? Maybe you can do a video on that.

I'm using the 12.9" M1 iPad Pro right now, it’s the first iPad Pro I’ve gotten, and will for at least 4 more years for school, I absolutely love it & don't actually see blooming. I'm still using the iPhone 7, so Ill probably be using this till atleast 2025, only will upgrade if I have loads of money, which I almost def wont, even then I'm not sure if upgrade unless its a huge update.

Thank you, this is real deal for 99% users.

Just realized there is a matte screen protector on the 11 2018 model, it would affect the intensity of the display color and content..
Overall a good review :)

I have got the new M1 iPad Pro. It is great and the screen improvements are apparent comparing to the 2018, although that is still good, and really only in photo/video color grading is the difference of significance (at last the contrast is as good as the iPhone Pro). One thing important to me is the screen of the M1 is noticeably brighter outside in the sun. I do wonder if the LumaFusion export is software capped which is why that is not showing faster with the M1. In which case a software update will allow its full potential.

Refurbished 2018 11 iPad pro 64gb is $519 on Apple's site (when available). iPad pro 2021 11" 128gb is $749 on Amazon. That's not even half as much. I think 2021 is a better buy for the extra storage space, double the memory, and M1.

[bobboberton]

Thanks for doing a "real world" performance test. Most focus on benchmarks. I can stay, as a 2021 M1 12.9" owner, iOS 15 didn't add much to use the extra power or size. I guess I should be grateful Apple included a charger these days.

The LCD display on the 11 inch is calibrated well enough to make it look really good. Coming from an OLED display fan, I do not notice the grayness on the iPad Pro most of the time. Mostly because I don’t use it in low light situations. It’s not an issue for me.

Great video!! New subscriber on board with you. I've got the 11" 2018 and am awaiting delivery of my new 11" 2021.

the brighter screen is only notable with the hdr content, if you check in the comparison corner of the apple store online and you compare these two models, you can see that the peak of brightness is the same for both excepted for the hdr content
