Great video! From someone who’s in nursing school and upgraded to the 12.9 M2 from the 9th gen, the pencil hover is pretty nice. This helps with scanning the videos for school without having to actually move the video itself.

Thank you for this video … my knowledge on apple products on the technical front has gone up a lot watching your videos

WiFi tests should be run separately rather than concurrently. Also note that the new iPad Pros do not support the 6 GHz band according to the technical specifications on the Apple web site for some reason.

Was waiting for this video for long time

Until Apple actually utilizes the power of the M1 and M2 chips, no one need to upgrade anything. I know it is tempting but trust me on this.

What I’d say is this: if you don’t have an iPad and want the top of the line, go get the M2. If you don’t need the latest and want to save some while getting a high end iPad, get the M1 And if you’re on the A12Z or M1 iPad Pros, hold off for another 1-2 years. Same applies to anyone on any iPad sold since 2020, with the exception to users on the 7th gen iPad base model. (Key word, sold).

Fantastic- I love your videos and I love the bottom line approach on this on! Thank you

It’s also important to note that while there may be sales on the older M1 iPad at this very moment making them more affordable than the M2 that stock will not last forever. For maybe a few weeks to a month it may cost less to get a M1 but eventually that stock will dry up. The M1 is not being manufactured anymore. So eventually the only option will be used or a new M2. It’s a bit misleading to tell people not to get a M2 when that will soon be the only option to buy. I just think it’s important to make that clarification. If one can find a new M1 model or a decent condition used M1 then yes it will do very well compared to the M2. But the M2 is in no way a bad buy and up until a few months ago people were paying the same price for less performance on the M1. Eventually we will see sale prices on the M2 as well. The M2 is not meant to be a upgrade from the M1. It’s a better new option for new buyers. Instead of Apple selling an older model for another year they give a bit more for the same price.

Tell us how the battery life compares!

Been rocking an 11" M1 Pro for the last year. I'm very pleased and have found during longer Lumafusion tasks that it's actually beneficial to ventilate the body of the iPad to increase performance. So I cut a 2" hole over the Apple logo on a cheap gel case (just used a hole saw) and saw meaningful speed increases over just using the case alone. It seems one would be better off getting the M1 with 1TB and 16GB of RAM over the M2 for most power users, with casual users befitting more from the M2. I would be very interested in battery life and thermals. Another great video!!

Does bluetooth 5.3 actually save energy? Would be cool to see you test it. Also, wifi 6 is also said to save energy, but I also haven’t seen anyone testing that

@Toliman.

Жыл бұрын

The energy saving for BT 5.3 is likely to be protocol related, ie it can support low CPU power codecs, which requires hardware changes. The problem is that it’s not backwards compatible and you need support for whatever new power saving codec in both iPad and Bluetooth devices. The update to BTLE or Low Energy aren’t that significant, as LE is not designed for speed or features. It sends small messages like power and volume levels. It’s not able to use security so anything in range can detect the LE signal. Wifi6, there’s support for multiple devices sharing bandwidth, which prevents collisions and bandwidth hogging if multiple WiFi6 clients are active at the same time. It doesn’t work if you have mixed AX/AC/N/G or WiFi 6/5/4/3 clients on the same channel, so YMMV. The benefit is that 6 and 5 clients can be “portioned” or delayed so that they get a bigger slice of time and bandwidth. This is because WiFi divides into slices of time, as while every device seems to be on the same channel, the radio signal is split into upload/download for 1 device at a time, so that only 2 clients can “talk” at the same time, then someone else gets a turn. This leads to frequent “collisions” where 10-20 clients are waiting for a delay so they can broadcast their data and get a response back. And if there’s other WiFi devices using the same channel but a different router/broadcast name, it slows down both channels. So, with multiple WiFi6 or AX devices, they can set up regular delays as “reserved” time which helps regulate a longer timeout period for supported devices, which is semi-valuable. This means that you can have more devices on the same router, and they can stream faster at the same time, but also handle more interruptions and regular usage. Eg you can have more people on a video conference on the same wifi connection than you would have before. The second power saving concept is that WiFi6 client devices can sleep for hours without needing to rekey or rebroadcast, which means the battery-run IoT devices don’t need to “log in” each time using CPU, or having to negotiate the security again. This allows lower-power clients like switches and sensors to “wake up” faster and sleep longer.

I always laugh at people saying its just a media consumption device and a gaming tablet and it doesn’t need the power because of that and the limitations of iOS and then iPad OS! It’ll come to the user and his use case. It can be anything you want it to be. I ran my meetings, notes, preparations, MoM, calendar, reminders, mind maps, diagrams, drawings on it. I joined a class and used it as a student to capture the whiteboard and type, record the lecture audio, draw and annotate at the same time. No pen and paper come close, not even a laptop can have the cam and audio recording or pen functionality and portability or the built in PDF and documents support that Apple and this device have. The fluidity and wake-on touch with no BSOD or anti viruses, reliability and integration with their echo system. You go back home and everything is synced with your mac and even your phone. You can use it as a second screen and the continuity and universal control are amazing. I wanted Pencil 2, and had an eye on the MK although its bulky and stupidly doesn’t protect the sides or the pencil. And when M1 was released it was like a dream came true but I hardly held myself because Apple again cheaped out on some specs to sell future iPads, as always. I wanted the Mini LED like the one on its bigger brother (or sister), I wanted WiFi 6E for future proofing (although I use Unifi 6 network setup), and I wanted Bluetooth 5.2 for better range, lower consumption, better audio quality and future proofing. They didn’t deliver so I held on the 2017, but now this ticks most of the boxes and because the battery is dying and the RAM and CPU are not enough for me especially with multi tasking and video editing, I had to retire that one, actually give it away with the Pencil gen 1 to my 10yo son replacing his iPad mini 4 and buy me this futuristic piece of tech (I’m a tech freak, computer engineer). It’s flying fast, the RAM is plenty for ANYTHING, the new form factor and even the negligible 0.5’ difference size makes a little but noticeable difference when you open 2 apps side by side. Stage Manager. Even the speakers are better. The battery hardly shows decrements although I thought the M2 will chew into it, but maybe because its still new and I haven’t put it into heavy workflow yet. I hate they didn’t move to mini LED on the 11 and they didn’t move the cam to a landscape orientation (not that it’s a big deal), I hate they sold us another 5nm CPU and next year M3 will be on 3nm with much much better performance and efficiency! But I had to bite the bullet . I’m in the UK and the price went up from £750 for the base 11” model (£720 on Amazon UK) to £900 which is unfair and outrageous when it kept on $800 in the US. I was about to buy the M1 11” or 12.9” on eBay with a good price, struggling for a week until Apple released the M2. It was a tough decision to justify the price difference especially when they increased it. But I know about tech better than others and I appreciate even tiny differences that would make future proofing especially when more pro apps get released. I was hesitated to move to the 12.9”, to get the mini LED and the best screen real-estate but portability is a key. I carry it with me everywhere and I don’t intend to stick to my desk. I already have several computers there along with my MacBook Pro 14 and dual 27” displays for more serious workflows in programming or designing. Everything else I do it on the iPad, it is a computer for more than 80% of the tasks I have and can definitely replace a laptop for most people or students who don’t need a special SW that needs a desktop OS. I’m glad Davinci Resolve is coming and few more pro apps along with Apple’s Freeform app. And I know Apple is differentiating the iPad and wants to sell both iPads and Macs so MacOS wont come anytime soon, and I never asked for it. But I wish they release Xcode version for the ipad and hopefully the rest of their pro apps like Final Cut Pro and logic. I count more on 3rd party developers to bring their pro desktop level SW to this mighty little computer/ tablet, like Autodesk and more Adobe desktop SW, but currently there are alternatives on the ipad that gets the job done to a certain extent and for most people who appreciate this mighty invention and who are ready to learn new workflows away of what humans used to use for the past 40-50yrs. Sorry, didn’t intend to write this long but the Magic Keyboard really makes a difference and encourages you to type and type. Spending this amount on it though makes me feel sad when they comes up with a 2nd version with much needed function keys and maybe better protection. It’s heavy but I’m looking for a case compatible with the MK and adds Pencil holder and the much needed protection for the sides, and I don’t want to go for the Pitaka. And the likes. They are totally rubbish, breaks in few months and highly overpriced for what they are! I appreciate any advices regarding a case or anything makes life easier especially that I’m still new with the accessories for this thing. Good luck with your purchase, you’re not gonna regret it and it should last us years and years. Just received my Pencil 2 and intend to test the hover, double tap and everything. Excited as always. It cost me £1200 for the 256GB cellular instead of last year price of £999 (course without the Pencil and the MK). It’s outrageous but it’s a mighty beautiful super useful machine that would last me at least 4-5yrs without showing age, and I do use it for work, hence the pro, so I can justify it. For others with M1 or gaming and media consumption or light light tasks, they don’t need this power (maybe gamers do, but they can go for the Air, for me I think the Air only exists to lure you into the pro as for small price difference you get much more specs, unless you get it on a bargain!). Holly Molly, this magic keyboard really makes you go crazy! But I don’t think anybody would reach this far reading this long journal, lol 😂

I bought the iPad Pro 12.9 M2. Upgraded from the regular iPad 5th gen. No regerts

The amazing thing is that modern iPads generally have a significant usable lifetime. Upgrading after 1 year is almost never necessary. To summarize my thoughts: - If you currently have an M1, you probably don't need to upgrade unless you absolutely need the performance and/or hover features. If you do, you know who you are. - If you have a 2018 or later model, you *might* want to upgrade for the better performance (and XDR on the 12.9") but it depends on your use case. If you do a lot of multitasking the bump may be significant but if you primarily run a single app at a time you may not even notice the difference. - If you have a 2017 model or older, the form factor alone is a lot nicer and it's going to be a huge improvement overall. I had a 2018 11" and I had been planning to go to the 12.9" already, so the M2 upgrade made sense for me. Still, had it not been for the screen size I may have stuck with the 2018 for another year. Hover is really the wildcard feature. If you're an artist, it could be a game changer. But for almost any other person it's not worth upgrading just for that.

There's nothing on iPad OS that even will use that extra performance. Therefore, literally nobody can even take advantage of it. Just get the M1 Pro unless you need hover.

I agree with this completely, new iPads (especially the pros) last forever. I just started having issues running certain applications with my old iPad Pro 9.7” from 2016, and the past few generations of pros have had overkill performance for iPadOS, so I’d imagine they’d last even longer.

The iPad Pro has already been a huge gamechanger for me as a freelance artist. Love my 2017 ipad pro model, might upgrade in a year or two 😃 but it is still going strong 🔥 .. want the 2.0 pencil and I love this new hover feature. I've been a wacom user for many many years btw.

Still using the m1 11” today, still super fast

could you compare the M2 Macbook Air vs. M2 iPad Pro ?

Thank you. You just help made me decide on the M2 as the Wifi6E alone is worth it, let alone a slightly better performance.

Just picked up a like-new 12.9 M1 128GB for $600 on Offer up. An A12Z would have been just fine too for my needs. The yearly processor boosts are much less exciting these days.

From an A12X iPad Pro, should I go with brand new M1 or M2 open-box with 10 months of warranty left M2 with the same price?

one of the best apple channels, I like the content

Can I ask: Any apps or any feature of latest version of IPADOS that can run on M2, but cannot run on M1 ?

Please compare with exact same iPadOS 16.1 (20B82). And want to see DaVinci Resolve comparison.

Download and upload speeds got worse in the newer!? How wild! I'm definitely buying an older M1 now. Thank YOU for this review!

Hey Vadim, not sure if you’re reading comments on older vids, but I heard that the SSDs in the new M2 iPad were slower. Is that the case, since your test didn’t seem to show it? What configurations are your iPads?

That is a cool case, well done.

Where to use all this performance with an iPad? Weather app?

Speakers are the same? Dont change the sound quality?

Is there a reason why your iPad Pro M1 not running latest iOS or even same iOS as your M2 version?

While iPad is 16 beta was introduced ACCIDENTALLY worked on my iPad Pro M1 but with an update it didn’t work anymore

cant decide to buy 12.9 m1 or m2?

But they will release Davinci Resolve for iPad, im certain it will use the complete power of the M2.

I would be interested to know about the comparable battery life. It would be really awesome if Apple allowed us to enable the low power mode of the M2 on these iPads as well.

Battery life is basically and mostly the same. But M2 can use more wattage over M1, so you‘ll get some more battery life with the M1. But it’s just about 15 to 30 minutes…

what upgrade?

I’ve got iPad Pro 12.9 m1 and this is absolutely the best tablet i ever had. Pure perfection. It’s hard to imagine how would be looks like better tablet. 😊

I am willing to buy an IPad. both m1 and m2 have the same price here but with 256GB m1 and 128GB m2 is the 128 GB enough for notes and some games and movies or should I go for the M1? elp me plz

I am happy with my 11-inch iPad Pro M1, it helps me a lot for my design studies and to have some fun. I consider that it was an excellent purchase, instead of having thought about the M2.

For me I just bought the M2. I don’t need all that power but it is just because the M2 will last longer in term of updates and new softwares comming out so I think it is worth it
