Jonathon, I'm really liking the consumer/user focused direction on this channel. Many Apple channels seem to chase the hot button talking points with new devices (no shade to them, that's important too!), but I really like how your videos feel somewhat niche while also posing interesting questions that feel more applicable and grounded to the average tech user. Props to you and all involved!

Like I’m pretty sure my first 3 iPhones were 4, 8 and 16gb in order and it was absolutely not enough. Things take up more space now, yeah, but I love that the base storage for their devices now is enough that the average casual user won’t really have to worry about it.

Love the video Jonathan. I loved my iPhone SE that I used a s a secondary/work line. Perfect for the pocket. When my 11 Pro finally kicks I’m going to get an SE. I’m also a fan of buying older Apple tech as cheaply as possible and keeping it for a year or two. Just bought a 2015 27” iMac for less than $150 US. It’s still good hardware for the next couple of years…

iPhone SE is a really good phone with a great processor, for a very accessible price. For most people, and certainly for me, the only real downside is the small battery. Choosing this over the premium phone leaves you (a lot of) money to spend on e.g. a better laptop or desktop, where that money can really get you a lot of extra performance.

Loving these Apple ecosystem type of videos. Hope you can make more like this one. Keep it up!❤

I bought the 2020 iPhone SE the day it was released due to the deal at Walmart for 200 bucks off. However, the surprising part was that somehow Walmart lost my purchase plan that was supposed to be setup with Verizon. So when I went to pay off the phone Verizon said it had already been fully paid for. So basically I got the phone for 40 bucks out of pocket. Not sure how it happened but it will probably go down in my history as the best value proposition I have ever gotten. lol

I really liked the focus on value and budget in this video. Great content!

Apple products' longevity is just insane. I bought my iphone 7 when it first launched (maybe 2016?) and it still works really great!

The Mac Mini M1 may be one of the best Price/Performance devices ever. It's a great device. It's shockingly fast compared to other devices in the same class/price.

I like to keep my phones for a long time, so upgrading the storage has been key, after almost 4 years I’m still super happy with my XR, and because I upped the storage I haven’t reached the point where my apps are taking up all the space and I have to juggle them like I have had to do in the past with past phones, and although the xr wasn’t the absolute bottom of the lineup (I think), it certainly was closer to that

My first mac was the base model mid-2009 white MacBook, which I bought the DAY before the late-2009 unibody version was announced. Worked like a charm for over half a decade, and I can still use it for some light tasks almost thirteen years later.

Another great vid! Great way to illustrate the value in these entry-level products!

As someone who has been dealing with an se for over a year now, I've really made it feel like home, sure the screen is a little small and the battery kinda sucks, but for what it is it feels amazing to use.

I appreciate these types of videos! With the average consumer in mind

I bought a base iPad back in 2017. Still works great! May upgrade when the next round of iPad updates come around as it’s a bit slower these days. Especially when compared to my 13 mini

Managed to get a good deal on an 8gen iPad because it was close to announcement time & the store wanted to retire its current stock. It’s a huge jump from a second generation iPad mini.

that's some sweet stock music. I could listen to those fm bells for days.

This was a fantastic idea and loved it. Great stars too.

Im an android user for life, a week ago I purchased the base variant of the cheapest iPad 9, i paid $390 that’s around ₹29500 with the student discount for the 64 go variant because you pay more than a quarter of its price for government tax in India & its a fact that India is a poor country most people don’t have the purchasing power to buy apple devices. Even if you have the money you should be ready to pay the extra tax. But even though I paid more than I should for a basic tablet I think its worth it because it performs much better than any android tablet in this price range, its performance can be compared to flagship devices from other brands, the only 2 things I’m missing is a USB C connector and the limitations of iPad OS Software Either way I’m happy with my iPad 9

Been running the se for almost 2 years now it was a replacement for my old 6s+ the size difference was the only thing that was a issue to me and took some getting used to and for Black Friday this year I picked up a base model MacBook Air for $860 usd which to me slays most PCs and even at home I don’t use my ryzen desktop near as much as when I was daily driving my hp ultrabook now it’s just for large projects and storage.

You’re a great presenter and a valuable addition to LMG

I bought the base iPad a few months ago to kinda test how I'd like the Apple ecosystem, coming from Android (also my first time buying a tablet) and I absolutely love it. It does basically everything I want it to at a reasonable price. If you're willing to put another ~$130 into it, the Logitech Combo Touch case is a good addition. The keyboard is better than Apple's Smart Keyboard imo and the trackpad is a nice bonus. I don't think the iPad screen's air gap is really noticeable, but I can see how it might be an issue if you plan on drawing with an apple pencil or something. I think my only complaint would be the bottom-firing speakers, but after getting the airpod pros on sale it's really not an issue if I'm just watching youtube by myself, and connecting to a bluetooth speaker to get better sound if I have other people watching with me isn't a big deal either. I would highly recommend saving A bit of money and just getting the base iPad unless you REALLY need some of the features of the higher end models. It really is a good product for $330.

The lightning port is great if you are traveling and only wanna bring one charger for ipad and phone (or have a clutter-free night desk)

I so agree. You don't always need the most expensive device. My Mac mini M1 is great for teleworking and the previous generation iPad mini is ideal for reading.

I scored my Series 3 Apple Watch 38mm at Walmart for a steel of a deal at $124.00 USD. Always check with major retailers as they do clearance out old stock in anticipation for new models.

I would love a series where you buy the cheapest kit for a 5 year life cycle for example and we can periodically check in how it's holding up. For example, as per this video, if we buy the cheapest gear apple sold today, total cost and value and projected longevity (8GB RAM not enough 3/4 years later on base Mini and Air, 64 Storage running out on SE And iPad) VS A likely future proof build, 16GB RAM on the Air/Mini, 128GB storage on iPad/Iphone SE, total cost and projected longevity. That would be an interesting video to watch

Love my iPad 9!! Got it just for procreate, gives me everything I need 👌🏽

This is good to know. I ended up going up one cost level up with an IPad Mini 6 because I needed that sweet USB C.

I bought an 8th gen 32gb iPad for college 2 years ago and I think it has been the best investment of my school life. The storage doesn’t really bother me because we used Google Drive for everything and student accounts had unlimited space, barely needed to download anything ever. I bought a Bluetooth keyboard for the device a couple of weeks ago and I think I will get at least two or even three more years of use out of it now using it for taking notes and writing.

I'm currently using the base M1 Mac Mini. This little thing has been fantastic for me. I did get burned once nearly 10 (good god...) years ago. I bought a second hand 15" MacBook Pro 2013. This is the first year that the base 15" models didn't have dedicated graphics, so I was stuck with Iris Pro. It is also the year before the entry RAM amount got bumped to 16GB. Doing video projects in college while maxing out my 8GB of RAM was an exercise in suffering

Rocking Macbook Pro Mid 2012 Non Retina. More Than Enough for Web Development and Android App Dev with an SSD & 4GB Ram. Only Replaced Broken Keyboard for $25 bought second hand for about $300 in 2019.

Jonathon, when are you enabling dark mode on your set? Can't wait for the change to happen!!

LMG should have a dedicated Android channel. As a consumer I am constantly asking the same questions on both platforms. Ecosystem, when to buy, what to buy, which can do better at what for whom?

My dad got the SE 2020 last year after upgrading from the 5s he's had since around 2018. He's really not the type who can judge things as well other than the fact that he uses it daily but other than the battery it is a pretty good deal if you have to be in the ecosystem. I, on the other hand, am rocking a 2015 MacBook Pro and, besides the 2.7GHz i5 and the 8 gigs of ram that I still find decent for a 7 year old machine, the 128 gigs of storage ran out almost immediately, especially since I wanted to have Windows and Arch (btw) installs on it. I shelled out another 300 bucks for a 480 gig drive, 280 of which is dedicated to my main macOS installation that I use for day-to-day tasks and I find it more than enough. So I'd say whatever you do, especially now with non-upgradeable storage, do not get anything below 256, preferably 512GB. On the other hand, since external storage is getting smaller and faster, and especially much cheaper than what Apple charges you for their built-in, it seems to me that 256GB might be the sweet spot for pretty much any user I can think of, since media, backups or code can easily be stored externally.

One thing you didn’t mentioned and was one tipping point to the iPad Air (besides storage that used to be way to to slow with 32gb) was the support for the Apple pencil 2. It is noticeable better and i would get mad with charging the first generation. but if you need a tablet, not a semi-full PC replacement, the iPad is just for you.

I semi-agree, apart from the SE and the watch. The iPhone SE i tried only lasted until lunchtime. Not only that, but it was also slowing down a lot. It also has a single camera for those who want a triple camera. (Had iPhone SE 2020 for 1.5 years and hated it all along) As for the apple watch series 3, you’re missing so much that for a couple of bucks more you can just buy the SE and the dofference is a world apart.

I have a 7th Gen iPad I got in January the year the 8th Gen came out later in the year. And I wasn’t disappointed. It was my first time back into the apple ecosystem since the old iPhone 3GS which I hated. Now I have the iPhone 11 (will upgrade to the 14 lasted this year probably) the second Gen AirPods (will upgrade once these die) and I need a new watch I use a normal one but the Apple Watch series 7 actually impressed me enough to want it.

Sometimes entry level is great, but sometimes it makes sense to go big or go home. I’ve picked up three AppleTV HDs, even though there’s two newer models. For my TV viewing it just needs to be good enough, I’m fine with 1080p, and I have a Harmony remote that does what I need. What matters is it puts me in the Apple ecosystem. For a computer, I went with the Mac Mini, because of the lower price, and I can use my 43” displays. I did order the 16/512 model, since they can’t be upgraded later, and I plan to keep it for 10+ years.

I had a college friend who still had one in 2016 until the phone decided to vibrate for no reason then the phone wouldn’t read a SIM card. Not too long after the phone died altogether.

My base iPad 9 is fantastic.

The TLDR version: I am now buying smaller hard drive capacity for my i devices and use my 2 TB iCloud for sync. The long version: Granted, on the cheapest MacBook Air, I got 500gb but I use external USB for FCPX editing. my newly ordered iPhone 13 will only be 256GB, compared to the 512GB iPhone 11, I don't feel the extra space has great resale value. Just before 2019, I was in ICU for 1 week and a half, and I gave a friend my CC and asked them to buy me the cheapest iPad so I was entertained while tied up to tubes and probed everywhere. The 32GB is a bit of a problem today and OS updates sometimes fail. I had to disable the feature to uninstall not often used apps because it seems to favor things in my fotos lib. so apps I use once pr month, where always uninstalled. But since I needed a 2TB iCloud account anyway, the strategy of choosing smaller capacity devices works well for me.

The new IPad you mentioned is SO good. I got it a month ago and let me tell you 🥺 it’s so much nicer than iPad Air and unless you’re a pro, you really don’t need the pro one! I’ve been doing art, video calls, watching, so many applications 😭 it’s a genuine joy to use!!! And SO MUCH CHEAPER

You might want to revisit your problems with iPadOS, such as memory app support, progress bar for copying, ProRes support etc. I’m not even sure what the problem was with Google Drive, as I could drag and drop from one files app, showing Google drive to another, showing my iPad, perhaps they were locked?

I bought a MacBook Air in February of 2020 and a few months later the new 2020 MacBook Air with the better keyboard was announced then on top of that the m1 got announced near the end of 2020

I was thinking of getting a M1 Mac mini as my first apple device for some programming. Is it acceptable in speed?

My current setup consists of the MacBook Pro 16 inch 2021, iPad 8th generation and the iPhone XS(Used)

i feel like the best thing to do is buy the mid range options on sale. the m1 macbook air is on sale for $800 rn. what a deal!

Every time my mom gets a new Apple device they released a new one a month later it's been a tradition you could say. This goes all the way back to getting an iBook G3 900mhz 12"

Commenting from a 128gb iPhone SE. Can confirm, certified banger. Although, I am excited to upgrade to something with a larger display.

Finally a useful video about apple products.

Got an absolute base bottom of the barrel m1 Mac mini and a top of the line windows pc with all the modern hard to get parts. I use both about 50/50
