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

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

Honestly, get any iPad with an M chip in it. The general consensus seems to be that iPadOS isn’t even really capable of using the full power of it, and I’ve found that to be true. My iPad Air 5 with the M1 has never shown any signs of slowing down and I am consistently multitasking. My recommendatio

Since Apple introduce the new chassis for the Air; The iPad Air 4 (2020) uses A14, while the iPad Air 5 (2022) have the M1. Then if you’re saying you got the M2, thats iPad Air 6 (2024) and you’re saying you wanted to get the iPad Air 7 (2025) that have the M3? Not worth it bro. M2 is enough for Arc

Schau doch z.B. bei Rebuy nach nem gebrauchten iPad Air (z.B. 5. Generation von 2022 mit M1 Chip für unter 400 Euro). Dann noch ne gute Tastatur dazu: Logitech Combo Touch. Da hast du gleich ne Hülle mit Ständer, kannst die Tastatur abnehmen und nur das iPad nutzen oder magnetisch dranmachen und mit

I’d go for the iPad Air 13” M3 256GB WiFi + Cellular ($750). It’s the newest/most future-proof with M3 chip, great for school apps, note-taking (full Apple Pencil Pro support), and multitasking with your 70GB+ stuff. Bigger screen than your current Air 5, 256GB solves storage, cellular adds flexibil

I used iPad Air M1 for undergrad and it worked pretty well.

11 pouces c’est la taille parfaite, c’est la dimension la plus répandu, c’est pas pas pour rien. En termes de rapport qualité/prix je trouve ton choix éclaté. Pour 500 euros, j’ai acheté un iPad Air 5 + magic keyboard folio + Apple Pencil 2. C’est plus performant (puce M1) La durée de vie est largem

What platform and what page size are you using? I have great results on an iPad Air5 with apple pencil2 and usually import CAD lines on a 11x17 or 24x36 PDF, scale it, and do all the squiggles and marker in Morpholio. For linework i use the tech pen or super fine marker around 0.8 - 3.0

honestly for $100 that's a pretty solid deal. i went from an A-series to M1 last year and the difference in multitasking and drawing latency was way bigger than i expected. the M3 will feel snappier for pretty much everything and you get the better display too. if you do any video editing or play ga
