I'm using my iPad at home and iPhone when I go out to extend the lifespan of the phone.

I wish the developers would update all apps to fit the screen perfectly.

This video really has me thinking about what I actually use my phone for that I couldn’t use an iPad and Apple Watch , like my phone bill would drop , still get my media content , only thing I would miss would be the convenience of the camera

I have thought about this same idea as well. I'm surprised there isn't a way to use a dialer app. Not sure if you have done the month challenge yet but one thing I would love to see/know is how well all of this works with just the iPad and the apple watch. I know you covered this a little bit but I would love to see you cover this in more detail - what gaps does the watch fill in that the iPad does do and visa versa. Things like NFC, payments, rewards cards etc? Similarly, what gaps would there be with just the LTE watch and a non LTE ipad? Great Video though!

First world problems be like:

Good video, and I’m glad to see others are thinking about this. I was SOOO excited when Apple turned on phone calling for iPad. I’ve been wanting to get away from having a phone and separate larger screen (that’s bigger than the Max series of iPhones), and they’ve taken one step closer to that ideal. I’ve been doing a similar experiment for about a month, where I leave my iPhone 11 at home while I carry my iPad Mini 6 with cellular, Apple Watch 6 with cellular, and EarPods Pro. I've found that for me, having the larger screen size with me all the time is a definite bonus. To carry it around, I use a small crossbody bag that fits the Mini perfectly in an external pocket so it’s easy to pull out when needed. When I have to use my slim backpack to carry my office laptop (which I have to do twice per week to be in-office), I still use the bag instead of transferring stuff from the bag into the backpack. If I’m running into the store to get something real quick, I’ll leave the iPad in the car, knowing that I have my wallet and my watch for payment and for a cellphone with EarPods if needed. If I’m doing major shopping, the crossbody and Mini come with me. Hardware-wise, I’m not a professional camera type person and I find that the quality of the Mini 6 camera is good enough for me. Size-wise, it’s been interesting how I’ve gotten used to the larger size and have no trouble using it. App-wise, I send and receive SMS messages to and from both Android and iOS people so I’m not sure what the comments of “no SMS texting” are about. (You have to set it up on the iPhone, so maybe people don’t know that?) I use FaceTime audio to call people (using the EarPods and not holding the iPad to my head) and if they have an Apple device, we can FaceTime video if they want. Of all the apps I’ve used, I’ve found that there are only two that don’t work so far: Apple CarPlay (which is a definite bummer) and the McDonald’s app (though the Burger King app works fine so I can scratch that occasional junk food itch). Occasionally I’ve picked up the iPhone and tried using it, but going back to that smaller screen is a real drag for me. I’m sticking with the iPad and my experiment for now.

@@jerome5969 In settings on your iPhone, select Messages. Make sure your iMessage is turned on, and right below that is an option saying Send and Receive. Open that, and make sure the options at the top have checkmarks in front of them. For the options at the bottom, I left my cell phone as the only one selected with a checkmark. Exit out back to Messages and scroll down a little bit. You’ll see an option for Text Message Forwarding. Open that, and you should see all of the devices on your account that can receive text messages. Turn them on for whichever device(s) you want to receive messages. Close the Settings app. For good measure, restart your iPhone, and the devices that will be receiving messages so that they can read the new settings from the server. When I send messages to Android-using friends, the messages auto-convert to SMS, while maintaining iMessage capability for my iOS device friends.

@@katyjones8268 Interestingly enough, in the past I have had to leave my iPhone turned on while it was at home since I never carry it with me anymore. Your question intrigued me, so I did a little experiment. I turned off the iPhone, and now only have an iPad running. I did a test text from my work iPhone to my iPad Mini, and it went through successfully. (If I remember correctly, it used to be the iPhone would relay messages to the iPads. I guess they have taken another step forward and removed the iPhone from the connection chain.) I then tried a phone call from my work iPhone to my to my phone number. The call went through fine! Even more surprisingly, it came through my car Bluetooth connection (I’m testing in a parking lot far from my home). This is not to say that you don’t still need an iPhone somewhere along the way to help with the initial configuration of the iPad. I remember on the iPhone I had to set up the text forwarding before it would appear on my iPad. Perhaps, as time goes on, the iPad will become more standalone. Also, I think I should find someone with an Android and have them try to call and text me to see if it still works. It just gets better and better, doesn’t it!?

Shervin, i love your personality on here, and the vibe of your vidoes! thanks for this. i'll definitely come back for more.

To be honest I used my iPad mini to take photos while traveling a few years ago. It lasted 5 years before I got an iPhone. It was a fun and nice experience overall but the camera wasn’t enough for me, so I got the photos from a friend that was accompanying me at that time. But I’m glad it worked haha! Nice job with your content, I enjoyed it a lot. Your content has a LOT of potential and I hope you’re rewarded with your hard work! Love from Chile 🇨🇱❤️

My dad has poor sight and poor hearing, he has a phone which he uses for text and WhatsApp only (his hearing doesn’t allow voice calls and other stuff is too small to see) - would an iPad mini be a good replacement for his phone to help his sight knowing that he can’t use voice calls anyway and he’s too old for things like Apple Pay?

If your with Verizon, use Verizon message for text and phone calls using the same phone number as your cell. All messages and phone call sync across devices

Apple is pretty smart about how to differentiate or cripple a device so you need another. That said, I have a Mini and I love that thing. But it does not replace the phone and I have a larger iPad as well.

You can replace it and use airpods when making calls. I left my phone at home once and was able up use the iPod touch in my car as a replacement. Since I can make calls on my iPad, I purposely leave my iPhone at home. I have an iPod and iPad mini that I leave in the car at all times.

could you have used the apple watch for NFC with the ipad?

A bit of feedback. You put in a lot of effort and it shows. The video overall was good but I feel like your hook was trying to see how much you could reduce social media usage and create more boundaries (like the celebrities you mentioned) and you didn't stick the landing on wrapping that up. The thing that stood out to me the most was the Apple Heath, NFC, glucose, and camera being reasons you didn't see yourself using it as a replacement. You mentioned in passing that since none of the social apps were downloaded you didn't use them. We have no idea how much you use social and I don't know if it's realistic for someone trying to replace their phone to have no social on the ipad as a reduction technique. Perhaps it would be realistic for but that's sort of my point it felt like your payoff/wrap-up was a bunch of stuff that was never established as being meaningful to this experience and a footnote about what you setup as the main reason for doing this. If those items were important I think you should have called it out at the beginning and looked for ways to workaround that. Like I said good production but for the sake of your content if you stay on point it will be even more impactful.
