How Tech Influencers Are Ruining the iPad Experience for Actual Users

I actually disagree with a lot of this. (Although I understand your points) I agree the influencer community seems to be a big factor in apples updates at the moment. But from an iPad usability point of view I’ve owned a functional usable iPad ever since the iPad 2 upgrading every circa 2-3 years an

Last day as a Ps4 player

Can confirm here. I play Genshin usually on the PC but I've been busy outside more often so I just play on the iPad Air M1. Its still handling this game pretty nicely without much hiccups/frame drop (I'm not an Apple fan, but holy fuck Apple M chips are insanely well-designed and beefy for mobile st

Asus Co-CEO: MacBook Neo Is a 'Shock' to the PC Industry

Yup, that's how I got roped into the Apple ecosystem. I was a die hard Linux user for so many years, I loved hacking and ricing, and hated Apple's walled garden. Then I got the cheap $250 iPad for note-taking in college, and thought it was really nice, so I also bought an iPhone for my next phone a

Here's the compatibility list for Apple's newly announced OSs

I don't get it. I have an iPad Air 4 (A14) and it seems I'm getting updated to 26, but the M1 won't?

IPAD OR TABLET

i've owned both android tablets and ipads for long term use. the xiaomi screen is gorgeous but ipados will feel way more consistent 3 years from now. gaming on ipad is smoother because devs optimize for apple silicon first - mlbb runs great. for studying, notability and goodnotes on ipad are miles a

Ipad Pro 10.5 or Ipad 10th gen for gaming

I wouldnt go for the 2017 pro anymore. The chip does not feature any neural engine/AI (not even basic stuff from years ago like OCR in photos) and no iPadOS update support anymore iirc. I switched 1 1/2 years ago to an iPad Air. I would miss the better speakers more than 120Hz but there is always so

72 Hours with the MacBook Neo

I'll be honest I haven't used a Mac for a full year. I was using an iPad Air M2 with a Magic Keyboard. I don't even remember the performance of the MacBook Air M1 to be real with you as that was a longtime ago. I'm just glad I have a Mac again and a full functioning laptop as the iPad was so limitin

Apple's $599 MacBook Neo Sold Out Through April Amid Surging Demand

Hey, I'm on the regular M1 iPad air! Occasionally its low RAM shows but in general it's just an issue of convenience over any poor function. I'm still quite happy with it after 3 years. The issues I have now are software based more than anything - the odd issue with PDF forms designed for desktop Ad

UB-XA VS Oberheim VST?

as an alternative for the price of SFC controller and VST you could pick up an affordable renewed iPad Air M1 and run OB-XD3 on it (and many many other awesome synths) I wouldn't bother with mehringer, it will never satisfy your want for your dream synth.
