    iPad Pro iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation) - performance on iPadOS 16 in 2022

    Hello everyone, I’ve been looking at a 12.9-inch iPad Pro, the 3rd generation model, from 2018. How is the performance on these iPads as of today? The Apple A12X in these is a very capable processor, but they have 4GB of memory. This amount definitely seems low in theory, although the 4th...

    Anyone successfully connecting a USB hub to a USB C digital AV multiport adapter that’s plugged into an iPad Pro? Goal is to connect two USB devices to a single iPad. If so, what brand USB hub recommended?

    Is anyone else having sound issues with BT (specifically with BT cans) under Ventura and iPadOS 16...?

    I posted this in Apple's forum and - so far - tumbleweed. I have two sets of BT cans: Sony WH-1000MX4 and Bose NC700. Now, I can't remember whether this began happening when I first installed Ventura/iPadOS 16, or whether it's been caused by a subsequent update (both devices are running the...

    iPad Pro M2 iPad Pro getting toasty when photo editing

    I know there aren’t a ton of M2 iPad Pro upgraders here, but for those that have bought the new device, just checking to see if this is a shared experience. For most day to day tasks, my 12.9 iPad Pro flies and doesn’t have any issues whatsoever. But when I start doing some editing in Lightroom...

    iPad Pro Just bought 2 Terabyte M1 iPad Pro 12.9, let me explain..($1,100 out the door)

    M2 was recently released and I was considering upgrading my 1 Terabyte 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 cellular model but the resell market was somewhat disappointing for commanding a decent price. The back story on how I got this particular iPad Pro configuration was a college buddy of mine informed me that...

    All iPads Anyone experienced this using iPad and external hard drives?

    Hey everyone 👋 Yesterday, I was away from my iMac and decided edit my upcoming YouTube video on the go. First time I’ve attached an external hard drive to the iPad Pro (2020) to work with LumaFusion. I usually video edit exclusively on the iMac. Everything worked perfectly during the day and...

    iPad Ipad Pro M1 - strong flickering

    I bought an Ipad Pro M1 12.9 last week (brand new) and it has happened three times that the display suddenly started to flicker very strongly (it was always on Safari when this happened). The text on screen would simultaneaously move up and down very fast (I managed to record it one time on...

    All iPads What is the end game for iPad and iPad Pro?

    With the new iPads coming out, I think the improvements on the whole in comparison to previous models such as the M1 are minimal. More processing power for sure but is that sort of power needed in an Ipad? Where do Apple go from here when M3 and M4 chips are released year on year when an M1 iPad...

    All iPads Selecting an iPad for College Student

    I’m considering buying an iPad for my daughter but the bewildering array of models is giving me pause. She is a biology and art double major and has a 16 inch MacBook Pro already. However, she is an accomplished artist who in the past used Procreate on the original iPad Pro with the original...

    iPad Used iPad Pro 1st gen or new iPad 9th gen?

    Hi, Would you recommend the iPad Pro 1st generation 10.5 inches, model A1701 over the 2021 Apple iPad 9th generation 10.2 inch?

    iPad Pro Battery Life Predictions. M1 vs M2 IPad Pro 8 GB Vs 16 GB

    Which IPad Model do you think will have the best battery life? Looking more into it, I believe that the 16 GB model for the M2 is going to have a much shorter battery life due to the IPad having to work more; however, I think the 256 GB and 512 GB M2 models might be the sweet spot as they have...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro M1/M2. What storage option did you go with? Why?

    Hey everyone! For those who are picking up the M2 or buying a discounted M1, what size storage option did you go with? With IPadOS16 around the corner, I know it’s not smart going with the lowest GB due to it not receiving the ability for the Virtual Memory Swap. What storage option did you go...

    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...

    iPad Pro Just ordered iPad Pro 11, 512GB cellular to replace 2020 iPP 11

    After more than two years of near daily tortuous use for my work, my 2020 iPad Pro 11 has been rock-solid reliable. Saltwater and south Florida hot sun didn’t bother my iPP 11 at all but the upgrade from 4G to 5G cellular as well as the WiFi upgrades make the upgrade to the 2022 model worth it...

    iPad Pro Is it worth hedging on M1 being utilized far more in the future?

    Quick preface, I've been wanting to purchase an iPad Pro for a long time. As a personal device that stands in as a laptop, as well as a drawing tablet. In my imagination, I'd like to have a powerful device that has a lot of potential but I could very well be using this mostly for Procreate and...
