All iPads Do you have multiple iPads for different uses?

[jagolden]

Yes, I use two iPads.
Mini 5 for reading books, travel, games, Affinity Photo and Designer for light photo editing and drawing/design, email. Shopping and browsing.

2020 12.9” iPad Pro for doing more detailed/important Affinity editing and design. Typing, reading larger magazines where you can fit the whole page, filling out long forms, shopping.

When traveling the Mini 5 is more than sufficient and the form factor lets me carry it with me in a slim, cross-body bag.

Yes, got 11” for personal use and 12.9” for work (paid by work).

I do, by default kind of. I have an iPad Air 4 I got for Christmas that I use for consumption, etc. My older iPad Pro 12.9 1st gen I kept in case I want to watch tv or movie on it (rarely), and my old iPad 4 is connected to my bike smart trainer so I can sweat all over it and not care.

Use my 11” iPad Pro for media consumption (YouTube etc.), web browsing, emails, social media and anything else whilst lounging on my sofa. I also have the magic keyboard for it but this gets minimal use...though it is very cool!. My wife uses hers for exactly the same purpose.

My iPhone 12Pro is taken everywhere I go especially as this means I’ve always got a good camera with me ?. Again, my wife uses her iPhone 11Pro for the same.

Looking to buy an iPad mini soon (possibly the 6) so that I’ve got a portable device that can also be used for when my iPad Pro is charging etc.

Longer term plans are to buy either a Mac mini or MacBook Air (with Apple chips) to checkout what Mac OS is like.

Laters, and stay safe people ? ?

My mini 4 is the most when away from the table/desk. I prefer watching media too on the mini 4. At the table, I use the 11 iPad Pro. I got the Pro to try as a productivity tool/laptop replacement..but it doesn't work well for extend use and all the iPadOS limitations. As nice as the Pro is, I constantly have some buyer's remorse and want to just "trade in" to Apple for credit. For work, I've gone back to my 15.6" (windows) laptop. I do have an iPhone XR but I hardly use it now due to the pandemic.

Ideally, I just want one iPad (mini 6 or until I really can't stand the mini 4 anymore), one laptop and mid size iphone.

Currently have an iPad Pro 12.9 I use for media consumption away from my iMac and an iPad Air 4 for social media and web browsing when I want a bigger device than my iPhone Mini. Selling the 12.9 as its too big. Will make the Air 4 the media consumption device and grab an iPad Mini for social media and web browsing, which will probably become my most used device. Just waiting to see if they update the iPad Mini next month but not holding my breath.

No. Wouldn’t mind doing so, but probably rather have an M2 Air instead of another iPad.

Only one iPad as multipurpose device.

I have a 12.9 inch iPad pro. I use it for teaching as a virtual whiteboard. Originally I connected it to a projector; now I hook it up to Zoom. I also use it any time I want to mark up a PDF or create a handwritten document.

I have an iPad mini for reading, google maps, and using on the go.
