Decided to buy a new iPad but I need one last quick opinion from you all -

Late to this but I was in a similar spot last year, needed something right away for school. I just went ahead and bought the iPad Air 11-inch (M2, 256GB) for around $699, and I’m glad I didn’t wait. There’s always a new version coming, but having it when you actually need it matters more. For your s

I've broken my iPad... Which model would you recommend for drawing?

Get a used or refurbished iPad Air M2 as it supports the Apple Pencil Pro and they’re relatively cheap now

iPad mini 7 or IPad Air m2?

I recommend the M2 iPad Air because of the bigger screen, that might be of better use as an artist. My 10.9 inch M1 iPad Air is a nice mix of portable and screen real estate IMO. However, I would recommend the iPad mini 7 if you absolutely need the better portability. Although IMO, anything less tha

First time ever owning a tablet! (M4 iPad Air) Felt my MBP was a little overkill for after-work web surfing.

I actually owned a 13” iPad Air M2 with the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil, and it was my main device for a while. I loved it—don’t get me wrong—but I eventually traded it in for a MacBook Neo. I realized that, first and foremost, it’s a tablet, not a full-fledged computer, and it felt a bit limiti

Would you buy an M4 Air or an M4 Pro for art

My iPad Air m2 has the hover. Do you really need a pro?

ipad

for med school notes and exams, the iPad Air M2 11in is worth the extra money. the m2 handles side by side apps better when you have a textbook on one side and notability on the other. also supports apple pencil hover which helps with precise diagrams. the iPad A16 11in is fine for basic notes but t

Getting into digital drawing thoughts on iPad air

Thank you for the info and recommendations we are just getting into it and everywhere said iPad for Procreate was the best to use. We have come to a choice between the iPad Air 5 with 2nd gen pencil and iPad air m2 with pro pencils all refurbished. We are android users so we were unsure about iPad b

Recs for college work, thanks!!

If you're happy using your laptop for your main work then for basic note taking and general use an A16 iPad or a 2nd hand iPad air M2 will both serve your needs. If you want to try out the android ecosystem then apparently the Honor MagicPad 4 is quite good.

Noticed a pattern: Oppo’s new floating keyboard design and what it could mean for future OnePlus tablets

Yeah that actually makes a lot of sense. Your use case (travel + flights) is exactly where a 13" tablet starts to feel too big and awkward. An 11" tablet is probably the sweet spot for you—still good for productivity, but way easier to handle on a plane. If you’re considering alternatives, you could
