iPad New iPad Air M2 vs refurb Pro M2
Hi! Looking for some advice here. I want to replace my iPad Pro 11' (2nd gen) for a new one, but I can't decide if I should go with a new Air M2 or a Best Buy refurbished or open box "Good" Pro M2. Both are in the same price tag, 550 - 600. Thanks for your help, really appreciate it! -

All iPads What do you use your 12.9/13-inch iPad (Pro or Air) for?
I remember reading a poll somewhere in the last couple of months (the poll itself was conducted before last month's M2 iPad Air and M4 iPad Pro announcements) that suggested that 50% of all iPad sales in the year prior were for 12.9-inch iPad Pros. I would imagine that we have the "13-inch"...- Yebubbleman

Apple didn’t announce any new Files app features, but as we learned last year, many smaller improvements come to iPadOS that aren’t necessarily announced in the keynote. In the Files app, a new option in iCloud Drive allows us to select a file or folder and select an option to “Keep... -

All iPads iPadOS 18 is a revolutionary update!!!
iPadOS 18 is a great update, besides all of the complaining it didn’t “push the needle” or whatever for some people. The customizable Control Center will basically add the functionality of macOS Menu Bar Apps to iPadOS. The new Settings app design is great, and Apple Intelligence is going to... -

iPad Air I just bought the iPad Air 13 Inch, wifi, 256 GB, Blue. Here are my thoughts
I was ready to buy the iPad 12’9 just for the bigger screen. but, then I decided to go with the iPad 10 generation that I bought in December 2023. It wasn’t the BIG screen that I wanted but, after days of using it I loved it more and more each day. Then the ipad Air 13 Inch was announced and I...- ouruniverse06131986

All iPads M1 iPad Pro 11 in. vs. M2 iPad air 11 in.
Hey all! I was wondering which one makes more sense to get. Apple right now has the M1 iPad Pro 11 in. for $600 in the apple refurbished store. That makes it a really compelling option versus the newest iPad Air, which they come about to the same price for me. My main worry is that the iPad Pro...- RedMango22

iPad Any chance for an iPad announcement in the October 30 Event?
A week ago there were rumors of a new iPad going to be released this week, of course, that didn't pan out, and instead got an Apple Pencil USB-C. With Apple announcing an October 30 event, I'm wondering if the iPad Air and/or Mini will get refreshed this year. An iPad Air gets refreshed every 18... -

iPad Air Upgrading iPad Air 4?
So, I have an iPad Air 4 that I purchased in December 2020 and love. That said, I really would like an M1 iPad to get the full experience of iPadOS 16 and to use Center Stage for video calls (I use my iPad a ton for that). I use the Apple Pencil a lot as well ... if it weren't for the new...- jwaynewiseman

iPad What's the difference between iPad Air and iPad10?
Apple can just simply combine the Air and 10gen... The usb-c and Apple Pencil with lightning port is very confusing(Too inconvenient to charge) . Still keeping a 3dot connector at the bottom edge and making a new Microsoft surface keyboard is also weird, thus the vanilla iPad can't use the Magic... -
