The iPad's software problem is permanent

In my opinion, Apple should make iPadOS a more compelling operating system for desktop like functionality, but it should not try to be macOS. The changes to multitasking in iPadOS 26 have been great if you use the iPad with an external keyboard and mouse. They are a good step forward in giving the i

I have an iPad a16 but I kind of regret not having many features, should I change to an m4 air?

You seem like an iPad power-user. I'm not sure how you ended up deciding on the A16. I think I'd get an Air and a pencil, then a thrid-party keyboard folio case; Logitech makes some pretty good ones.

Someone made the MacBook and iPad have a baby

I work for a very large F500 manufacturer. We had been putting $1800 per unit Touch Windows devices into some of our plants for our line managers to use as their "mobile computer". They were just not durable enough to withstand the harsh conditions of the plants. Endless breakage. We're about to sta

The iPad Experience Is Being Ruined by a Loud Minority

I got iPad A16 last month and I’m loving it so far. Yes, the slide over is really nice for all the things you mentioned and then some. I’m guessing if enough people complain about slide over being removed, they might put it back or create a toggle atleast. I’m planning on not updating to iPadOS 26 w

Got my first ever a16 iPad for school.

Love this. Will do the job and has decent base storage at affordable price compared to other iPads. Hopefully one day the A chips will get stage manager because it’s very helpful for studying but I’ll tell you right now it isn’t worth paying extra hundreds. I would’ve got the a16 if it was out when

Is the air really really worth the extra money?

No, you can take notes perfectly well on an A16 iPad. I did for many years. Now I have the Air and realistically it's about the same. I never noticed the non-laminated screen unless I was specifically looking for the air gap. I did once. OK, it's there, no big deal. Same OS, same apps. Not worth the

I want to buy a tablet solely for studying, is an iPad worth it?

You would be fine with the current A16 iPad, which you can find for around $300 if you shop around. It may be even less expensive after they announce the new iPads in October. This will get you through dental school. If you buy an older iPad it won’t make it 6 years. Battery life deteriorates over t

Apple Leak Confirms A18 Chip for Next Low-Cost iPad Model

I swear it feels like the A16 just got released. Considering the huge gap in time between the 10th gen and A16 iPads, having a new iPad this fall seems really fast. Not that I'm complaining. I also hope there is a full-on magic keyboard (the stiff variety) for the new iPad, now that it has windowed
