iPad Air

I wouldn't call going from iPad Air M1 to iPad A16 an "upgrade" (less RAM, less processing power, no laminated display, etc) But if it works for you, it works.

Actually during last year I ditched iPhone in favour of Android and completely abandoned Windows for Mac :P For me its fine. I'm not using Safari anyway. All I need is browser history sync. If I need to send files I use localSend so yeah, for me that famous synergy is not big deal. Same for tablet.

OP says it's an M1 iPad Air which was released in 2022. I was surprised they released a 64GB model (I had to google it to check). It was kind of an asshole move of Apple to be selling 64GB iPads so recently. Especially when the M chips came to iPads and they were boasting about how powerful they wer

Not sure if this will make you feel or better or worse but performance got worse on my M1 iPad Air as well and that thing is supposed to be a beast. I think the os is just very poorly optimized with several bugs.

At that price point, the specifications will be : iPad 11, A16 processor, 6GB RAM, 128GB storage iPad Air 5, M1 processor, 8GB RAM, 64GB storage As somebody who owns the iPad Air 5 / 64GB storage I can tell you that 64GB is not enough in 2026 Get the iPad 11 / A16 with the 128GB storage

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

Performance wise the Air will be better, but the display will make the device feel slower than the Pro. I had an iPad Air M1 and I almost never used it due to how unsatisfying it was to look at the 60hz LCD display. I have an OLED monitor on my PC, MiniLED display on my MBP, and a 17 Pro Max, so the

Honestly you might benefit more from a 12.9-inch M1 or M2 iPad Pro. You get a (still) stunning miniLED display, 120Hz, Face ID, and more performance than your use case would ever call for, all for around the same price as the new iPad Air.

iPads are mostly used for note taking, sketching, media consumption and gaming. I bought a used iPad 9th gen less than a week ago cuz I wanted to sketch and also don't want to carry a ton of notebooks when I go to college. Main purpose is I always felt I needed a bigger screen but not a laptop which

I have a iPad air 5 with the M1 , 64 GB , it doesn’t have enough storage to run Apple Intelligence, any update you need to delete some apps to be able to download it , if you are not planning to use ICloud Photos forget a 64 GB . Does minor task but it is starting to show it is old, Procreate runs b
