I feel like these are going to be running ipadOS instead of macOs

And the mobile chip has better performance but fewer cores than the M1. I am still rocking, M1 and M2 airs both for work but I really want a couple of these because battery is going to be great, I recently purchased an M3 iPad Air and it’s battery management is trash compared to my 10th gen iPad.

Apple introduces AppleCare One, streamlining coverage into a single plan with incredible value

Are your devices newer? My iPhone 14 Pro Max is $9.99, M1 iPad Air is $3.99, and Watch series 7 is $3.99, so AppleCare One is actually more expensive.

No new ipad 12th gen.....

Apple has way too many iPad models. iPad Air should be the base iPad at $399. The lineup should be Air, Pro, Mini. I really enjoy my M1 Air but I waited until it dropped to $399. There’s no way I can justify getting it at $599, even the new M4 that just came out… the screen is my biggest gripe and t

Upgrading from iPad air M1 to Ipad A16

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.

This is diabolical for 128 GB iPad

I have the same problem with my M1 iPad Air 64gb and that’s not a cheap or old device. Needed to delete almost everything just to install ios26 because it needs space for the old and the new OS at the same time (18+24gb =42 GB out of the 55 usable on the iPad)

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?

Is the m1 iPad Pro going to last very long?

I think it should last another 5 years with no issues. Unfortunately, the battery won't. M1 had terrible battery efficiency, so if you buy a used one, you'll probably need a new battery pretty soon. If you manage to find an unused one, it'll probably last but battery life does suck on it. My A14 iPa

Are any of you an android users?

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.
