Bring laptop or invest in mini tablet?
EDIT — Corrected some wrong info, and gave links to relevant information to "prove" it correct. —————————— Oh boy, I love tech. Don't mind my comment, but tldr; I'd go to the Apple store and see if you can experiment with Lightroom/CapCut to see if it'd work for your use case. Tbh I had very little

Size comparison
iPad mini 7: Mainly use to consume all sorts of media - YouTube, Netflix, News Articles, Books. I also use it for journalling, doodling, checking emails, scrolling through photos etc. It's just nice to have a powerful device that you can bring around everywhere. I love it especially for travel if I

Is the mini 7 worth forking out the extra cash over the A16?
I think the big thing you wanna think about is longevity, better chip will get you more years out of it. A16 is an aging chip and doesn’t even support Apple Intelligence. A mini could be fine if you can find one at a decent price, but I wouldn’t do anything other than the A17 Pro. Hell even an M1 iP

Is Apple Pencil worth it?
I recently upgraded from an iPad mini 4 to a mini 7 with apple pencil pro and am absolutely loving them!! The first thing I did was pay $20 AUD for the Procreate app despite not having a single artistic bone in my body. I don't think the pencil pro is compatible with your iPad but everyone needs dow

Thinking of changing to mini. Should I go iPad mini A17 Pro or stay with iPad A16?
EDIT: if your current iPad still works, I agree with other posters wait for the fall OLED MINI … good sources support the rumors. You can start saving up $100 15% percent off Apple gift cards between now and then and essentially wipe up the rumored $100 price increase! I think it’s worth the extra $

Apple Pencil Pro Alternative?
I have two ESR geo pencils. They work on the m4 iPad pro and on my iPad mini a17 pro. I love them. Cheap and still works great.

iPad purchase help!
If you use procreate you probably want to use the apple pencil pro at some point? That’s the one that’s pressure sensitive. In that case you need an ipad that‘s compatible: iPad Pro (13″, M4) iPad Pro (11″, M4) iPad Air (13", M2 und M3) iPad Air (11", M2 und M3) iPad mini (A17 Pro) As listed on the
