Can you do your own cellular ipad version of this tier list? Assuming you opted for the cellular variant of an iPad at some point... I'm curious how is it from a POV of someone from the US since for certain models, the cellular iPad experience was different for those in the US and those in other countries.

The iPad 6 was a pretty big deal in the art community when it came out. Decent drawing tablets where you can draw on the screen were always pretty overpriced, and the art software often wasn’t much better. Apple coming out with a competitively priced high quality drawing tablet along with the much cheaper software on the App Store was a welcome surprise, plus it’s got all the other features of an iPad.

I completely agree with the iPad 10 being in f. They removed the headphone jack and home button and then made it much more expensive which defeats the purpose of a budget tablet. it was also nice to have the old design available for those who want it and they could've kept it around a few more years. luckily they still sell the iPad 9 so I'm gonna buy one after Christmas this year.

I ordered the yellow one thinking it was going to be a bright vibrant color. Instead I looks like more of a Gold color. I personally prefer the gold look. Definitely not disappointed but just a heads up to the ones expecting a brighter cream of yellow.

I was dying for an iPad mini for years. So when it got announced, I was super excited and completely agree with the placement in this tier list. It’s the one and only iPad I ever got. But this videos kinda tempted me into looking into an iPad again. But as you say, there’s SO many 🙃🙃

Nice tier list, I think you made some very fair and solid points. Personally the iPad mini 6 is a solid S tier for me (I’ve had it since launch), and I’ll explain why: - I’m someone who values portability a lot. Using this thing along with the 2nd gen Apple Pencil and an aftermarket keyboard case is an absolute joy. Whenever I’m travelling I can draw and write really well without any issues and without having to carry a laptop. Honestly, I actually prefer using Procreate on this tiny screen than using my dedicated graphics tablet screen and photoshop when I’m at home. - I think people often make a false correlation between screen size and price. The fact that it’s smaller while offering similar features to the bigger iPads is THE defining factor for a lot of people, even if there are bigger and cheaper options. I’d say that before the price bump this thing’s features were absolutely worth the price. - This thing having an A15 means it will likely be supported for a long time, since even the base iphone 14s still have it. - Are there cons? Of course, I’d love a 120hz mini led display and I definitely miss the headphone jack. As a designer, I also feel like the UI isn’t quite optimised for the size. However, these aren’t really dealbreakers for me, considering the price. I’m still super happy with it and I don’t plan on upgrading anytime soon 😁

ipad air 4 i think should of been at least C tier, cause it was the first ipad air with a redesign (little biased since i have that one XD)

Would have ranked the 10.5 Pro at A or B, since for me it's was the pinnacle of that amazing form factor introduced with the first iPad Air and also 120hz was a huge thing for user experience imo

The iPad Air 2 was awesome, it was also the first iPad with full multitasking support! I got it the year it came out and upgraded to the 2018 iPad Pro, definitely two of the best iPads you can get from their time. I got the Magic Keyboard case for this iPad and it’s great! 😄

My first iPad was the iPad Air in November 2013. I upgraded to the iPad Air 2 in April 2015, and then upgraded to the 12.9” iPad Pro at launch in November 2018, which I’m still using today. All 3 iPads I’ve owned have been incredible value to me, and my iPad Pro still feels ahead of it’s time 4 years later, with me having no intention of upgrading to any of the new iPad Pro’s anytime soon. The 2018 iPad Pro is probably the best iPad ever made, taking into account its new design, and how well it has aged after 4 years, and still feeling like a brand new iPad with what is pretty much very similar to the newest ones.

Yes and still has support to all the latest apps

I still have an iPad Air from 2013. I got all the way up to iOS 12.5.6, 9 years of support is wonderful. Would get an Air 5th gen to replace it.

My very first tablet/iPad was the 2017 5th Generation iPad. Man, I loved that device and it made me realize why tablets are so popular. I gave it to my nephew and it's still working great. Still vey smooth and snappy. In early 2020, I upgraded to the iPad Air 3. And while it is an absolutely capable machine, I have a love-hate relationship with it. I guess, it has something to do with my timing. I bought it a month before the 2020 iPad Pro was released and to my disappointment, the price difference between the two wasn't substantial. So had I waited just a few weeks, I would've been able to buy an iPad with the sleeker design. That being said, I think the iPad Air 3 is a still a fantastic tablet. It got me through the height of the pandemic and almost three years after, it is still very fast and smooth.

iPad 2 was my first tablet and had no complaints with it. It basically replaced the mini laptop that I had using before it. After getting an iPhone 4S, the lower resolution of its non-Retina display started to become more obvious. I replaced it with Air 1 and agree it was an excellent device. My mom is still using it for basic things like checking Facebook. I replaced the Air with a 10.5" Pro. A solid device, but not a mind-blowing upgrade. I bought the Pencil with it and never used it. The Promotion display was its best feature. Finally, I have an Air 4. I knew I was buying middle of the road and that is what it is. I don't use a tablet that much anymore, so that is why I didn't buy a Pro model. Overall, for the 4 iPads I have owned, I would agree with their rankings on the list.

Even now, it is a perfectly usable KZread machine for watching videos on a larger screen than my phone, and even not being on the latest software, it's fine as it is... Considering its 8 year old hardware!!! Deserved S tier imo.

My first iPad was the (2017) 5th Gen base model. I never had a use case for a iPad, but figured at that price ($250 Black Friday Deal), It was worth a look. And I loved it! Found many use cases that only kept growing as the years went on. Loved it so much I bought both my parents one too! As the years passed, I wanted more features it lacked, faster speeds to handle games and programs. I would have bought the M1 iPad Pro, but wanted a 11" model with a mini LED display. Waited and here we are still lacking that with the M2, and really nothing really "new" compared to the M1. But I upgraded - and I do love the M2 a lot. My iPad's are used daily, and love them. A very handy tool for me.

Same tbh. I never had a tablet so in 2014 my mom bought me a samsung s2 tablet, I traded it for money and bought the Sony xperia z tablet, well I ended up trading it, a laptop, and ipod for a new iPhone 6. I took that iphone 6 and traded it to Verizon plus my iPhone 4 and got the xperia z3v phone and xperia z2 tablet free plus bose speakers, cases, screen protectors free lol. Well my ex gf broke both lol. And I ended up having to start from scratch, so I bought a iPhone 7 for 100$, traded it to Verizon for 400$ off of the iPhone X, and it was bogo and the ex gf wanted a iPhone 8 plus which she got free. So I got the tablet a few months later, and when the s7+ tablet came out I got 200$ trade in for the exact same tablet the iPad 5 329$. So I got the full value from it. Now I just got the m2 ipad Pro because it was the same price everywhere I looked as the m1 for same gig, size, and cellular capabilities. So I went for m2.

Nice one. I've been wanting to do an iPad tier list of my own, which I am doing for now, but glad this exists. There is one available on Mac Address (If you've ever heard about it), but that is mostly performance stuff.

My first tablet was a 2013 Nexus 7. A really solid device.

I'm just happy i found a new ipad video... i think I've watched 80% of all the ipad videos

is the iPad 5 a good device if you get it free? also first tablet was smsung tab 1

Just revived my iPad 2 and now it’s a dedicated digital photo frame, it’s was a truly great tablet

Good job with your list. I think it's pretty bang on.

First tablet was the iPad Mini 1, I used it for over 7 years and now use an iPad mini 5 that I bought in 2019. Both good tablets but the mini 5 feels a lot more up to date when I got it as the first mini had an old chipset and non-retina display when other iPad's had moved on.

Was waiting for this! :) If you ever planned to make video about Tier list for iPod I can imagine the mediocre/bottom list would be flooded the all post-2012 pod touch Nonetheless, thank you for the sequel!!

I loved my 2018 iPad Pro. Unfortunately the screen started going haywire, it would get ghost taps in the top right of the screen in landscape orientation. But I traded it in for a new one, 120hz is a must on any device like this.

Still using and enjoying my Air2, it more than get the job done for me, be it web surfing or media consumption and even ebooks for my college. Really solid tab, sadly enough it didn’t get OS16 but it still held up pretty insanely throughout the years 👌

I miss the OG iPad mini, that was my favorite iPad ever. Unfortunately, it got very slow after one year with iOS 9 so I didn’t get to use it for very long but it does bring back memories though. it was my very first iPad ever.

I have iPad 9 generation(2021) and I love it.

My first tablet was the Kindle Fire HD. I liked it for what it was but I was glad that I got an iPad Air two years later.

The IPad Pro 9.7 actually had more features than the IPad Pro 2015, it had a tru tone, p3 display and other features the original big IPad Pro did not have. Still using one today and it’s specs bar perhaps a modern chip is better than the new base level ipad. Better laminated screen, 4 speakers which sound good etc

Finally an iPad tier list! Loved watching the video. Also, it was enlightening as to why I felt iPad fatigue these last few years. I'm usually such a huge fanboy that I can remember any spec and spec change of an iPad, but the yearly budget iPads completely overran my dedication and it's weird to see how they céderai my don't refrain from upgrading an iPad anymore. I guess it's better for consumers, but as a fan, I really would be fine with fewer releases 😄 I mostly agree with your choices, with a few exceptions: - iPad mini 5 and 6 and Air 4 and 5 should be one rank higher. Basically the minis are expensive because they have great specs and I'm a fan of the value proposition of the new Air line. - You're harsh on the iPad 10. No matter its flaws it can't be as worthless as the iPad mini 3. I would put it in E tier for the same reasons you did. - iPad mini 2 is S tier in my eyes because it's when the form-factor peaked in relevancy, and value. Following iPad minis further confine themselves in a niche while the second-gen was mass market AF.

My first ipad was the mini 4 which I got for uni, after having the cheapest ever android tablet for a year or so (it was literally about £60 on amazon, it was terrible lol). Traded the ipad mini 4 into the apple store after about 3 or 4 years for an ipad 8th gen for the bigger screen and I'm definitely happy with it, I love the burnished rose gold-ish colour. matches the macbook i got recently and goes with my gold ipod touch too so it's all very satisfying lol. I didn't get a tablet for the longest time because i just didn't see the point of them, but idk there's just something convenient with being able to watch things on the ipad, especially with the split screen feature so i can have youtube and twitter/messenger open at the same time.

This is pretty creative. I personally had the iPad mini 4 and it definitely was a solid machine. But with all technology, it ages. However, for the time it served, it definitely held its value

My first tablet was the iPad mini 4. I bought it in high school right when it came out! I think I had the iPhone 5s at the time, so the larger screen was perfect for content consumption. I now have a 2018 pro 11 and an iPad mini 6, and I love the mini 6 still for watching KZread because I still prefer smaller phones for one handed use

Watching this on an iPad Air 2, and have literally used this thing everyday since preorder in late 2014. Original screen, original battery. Beast.

Love that you did this tier list. I use an iPad 12.9 4th gen at work, and my personal iPad is the Air 4th gen. Wish the iPad Air 4 got a little more love on this list :(

The 2021 M1 Pro did introduce the mini LED and M1 Chip on the 12.9 good case for S Tier possibly? Great video.

I have an iPad mini 5, so I was ready to gripe about your rating. I chose instead of both the iPad 8 and Mini 6. And I have really lived it. It was a huge improvement over my Mini 2 and my Air 2. But then I recalled that I got it just before it was dropped for $299, at which price it was a steal! I like the old fashioned bevels because I am old and they are familiar, and the earphone jack is very important to me.

I totally agree on the iPsd 10. Get the 9 while they are still available. Love the 3.5 headphone jack.

I just recently got an lte iPad 9 and it’s rock solid. Reminds me a lot of the halcyon days of iPad 2

My first tablet was the iPad mini 2, i still have it but it’s no longer a main device, I’ve recently gotten an iPad 9th generation and I really like it so far!

The iPad 6 was one of my favorite iPads, and I still recommend it today. It’s supper cool and it get the job done when it come to school .

I got the Air 1 for my 21st and used it up till this year and updated to the Air 5 when they stop doing updates then you know it’s time to get a new Ipad

The iPad 10 is absolutely an F. Incredibly frustrating that they took an iPad Air 4, then spent money and effort to actually make it worse just to keep their product segmentation. It just proves this iPad did not need to exist. For anyone considering, please do yourself a solid and find a refurb iPad Air 4

Thank you

Delighted to see my old Air 2 in the S tier. Had it for 5 years, now my brother uses it. I can understand your ranking for the Air 4. But I love my Air 4, and I will be holding onto it for as long as it's still running. Aside from that, I agree with your list.

Very much agree with your rankings. Have given my wife the Air 1, Mini 1, 2021 Pro 12.9 M1, and the 2019 iPad 7 over the years. The only one of those that wasn't really great was the iPad 7. The others were truly outstanding devices with my wife's current one (2021 Pro 12.9 M1) being a great 2-1 device as I got it with the Logitech detachable keyboard for her.

Watching this video on the iPad Air 1, still great for video streaming and light gaming

My first tablet was the 9.7 pro, had the Smart Keyboard with it and it was my main computer until 2020 when I upgraded to the 12.9 pro with Magic Keyboard, damn I never knew that it’s been so long since I’ve ditched Windows laptops for this very light thing!

My first iPad was the Air 1 from 2013. I remember wanting one for a while but I was waiting to be patient, and I’m glad I was. The thinner bezels / being lighter was a huge bonus I had couple others after that, now my main iPad is the Pro 12.9 M1 chip from 2021. It is a beast, works very well. My only issue, it’s big and heavy. It’s awesome when used sitting on a table. But on a sofa or a bed? It’s not as fun

My first iPad has been the mini 6 and I got it for uni. I enjoy the size, the look and the overall vibe that it has. I wouldn’t really want anything bigger, because it wouldn’t fit my needs. It’s also the perfect size for mobile gaming

I’ve been little ruff on my iPad mini 5 but I get your point though, the price point was brutal but I solved it bye buying one used and I still rocking it to this day four years later Work like a clockwork

Hey can you make a tier list about iPods next

My first iPad was the iPad Mini 1st Gen. I got that thing back around 2012 or early 2013. That thing has so many battle scars from when it was being used back in it's heyday. It's been through so much during it's lifetime, been there throughout my whole time in elementary. I stopped using that iPad back in 2019 only because my parents took it away. I still have it now and god, I can't even imagine living with that thing today. Glad I stopped using it. I replaced it with the iPad 9 in November of 2021.

Just to add to your point on the camera for the ipad 9, not only it had a 12MP selfie cam, it was an ultrawide cam but it also brought center stage so it was the perfect zoom/facetime tablet for a cheap price. def a huge value proposition for most people Edit: for the ipad 10, you forgot to mention the fact they moved the smart connector elsewhere and they went out of their way to make a keyboard just for it specifically (charging $200+?) instead of using what the other ipads are using so that’s what reinforces it at F tier

My first iPad was the iPad Air 2. It has the best A series chip and camera at that time. The Air line was so good before the Pro line came out, it was the flagship. I do think that all the iPads in the Air lineup deserve a minimum B tier as they are the best value-performance iPads. It always gives the up-to-date technology and design with a huge cut down in price. The Pro has 50% more price while its utility is only 15% more than the Air . If you're not an Artist, the Air and the Pro are basically the same.

Which would you recommend buying at this point?

Spot on rankings. I wouldn’t change anything either!

I’ve had the I pad pro 2018 since it came out, now in 2023 it’s finally breaking. It was a very good i pad

Who else loved the old ipad backgrounds? The night sky just looks so pretty on them.

The 1st tablet I remember having was an iPad 2 and I had to share it with my siblings.

I’m rocking the ipad 10 it’s amazing

I had a iPad 6 in 2019, and kept it for 3 years. It was great for gaming, watching videos, and lasts decently. Recently I got the 11 inch iPad Pro 3rd Generation. But you should get the iPad 6!

I currently have the IPad 9th Gen. Originally I had the IPad 2nd Gen. which lasted about 6+ years and was still working fine when I gave it away

my first ipad was a mini 1 then a decade later i got the m1 ipad pro i didnt really use ipads after my mini 1 because i used my phone but then later on wanted to try a ipad again

My first device was an old kindle fire which I have no clue which model it was. But besides that, I later got an iPad mini 2 which lasted me all the way to late 2020. My next device I had was an iPad mini 5 which I got Christmas 2020 which I still use all the time to this day.

having used the ipad pro 10.5 for just around 90 days while waiting for the inevitable design update in 2018, i loved that thing!! the only annoyance to me was the apple pencil 1, that was a questionable design decision even back then. other than that, no complaints, i'd put it in A tier. S tier if they had found a way to add Apple Pencil 2 support before the design refresh (like a charging strip on the back maybe? idk)

I’m on the iPad 7 and it is still running great even with the A10. Really like it but I agree with you, it kind of middle of the road.

iPad 9 - gets a new chip, double storage and upgraded *front* camera = B iPad Pro 4 - gets a new chip, LiDAR and a new camer- *E*

my first iPad was an iPad six and I still use it today

my first tablet was the hp slate 7, i still have it somewhere
