Odd. I watched an hour video and was still in the high 90s. Teams will soak up more battery because of wifi use, but I don't think it should be that bad a difference. Unless Teams is buggy, which is very possible.
Got a tip for us?

Really? That‘s really bright only in darkness for me, with Fake Tone off.
I grew up on Vancouver island. Loved it there. Moved to southern Alberta in fall of 2013. In my opinion, big mistake. Lol.
I’m glad I got the updated M1 iPad Pro, as my battery life was just not getting me through a day with my 2018 iPP and the new M1 iPP does, so it’s solved that issue for me. And once I start traveling again full time, the faster 5G will be a big plus.
The iPad Pro’s are just such great devices, they rank up there with the 2011 MacBook Air as one of the best computing devices I’ve ever owned. They just tick all the boxes for me, with very few complaints. Even my mother-in-law has been pining after my iPad Pro, saying she really wanted the simplicity of the iPad compared to her existing MacBook Air. I’m going to give her my 2018 iPP, so she’ll get what she’s wanted and I’ll get some bonus points from my wife, so really a win-win-win here.

Not happy....
The weight for portability being a hand held tablet is poor, very noticable between 2020 and 2021. Dealable but not as good.
Blooming if reading in the dark, black shadows and lantern like unbalanced lighting.
M1 / 8gb ram good , will it be utilized?
I actually switched back to the 2020 which I just purchased from Amazon after buying the M1, I could not stand the new iPad and it’s a shame as I love Apple and can afford the device.
My opinion:
These are great for creatives but not so good for cosumption and productivity.
I am not sure what to do once the 6gb of ram is not enough.

Should I get a tempered glass or paperlike screen protector? Which one is more protective? I mostly to photography and editing, watching YouTube and sitting outside in bright sunlight
Even happier now after receiving my magic keyboard, best of both worlds, tablet/laptop mode has never been easier.
Looks even better than when i saw it in store, I’m hoping it stays clean. 😬😂
Enjoying this keyboard, really nice to use.
Keeping mine. Works great. I can afford it. Why return it? I have a 2020 11" for general use so the weight doesn't bother me. I got it to edit pics in Lightroom. Love the screen. Love how fast it is. Shortly after setting it up I went on vacation in the woods of Maine and didn't read MacRumors. I just used it a lot and loved it. Didn't notice the battery life. Charging was no issue. Didn't notice any blooming. Day or night, the screen was bright enough. Out on the deck in sunlight no problem. Laying in bed watching a movie. No problem. One can always find problems if one looks for them to rationalize buyer's remorse. I am sure of millions sold there are some that SHOULD be returned due to defects, but as a class I think it's a great iPad if you want the screen size and speed.
