JoeMB posted:Retina iPad Mini: iPad air but has 7.9 inch screen (same resolution) and costs more than the old one. This really burns my biscuits, because I really want to get my mother a 32gb for Christmas to replace the horrible, slow, buggy, piece of poo poo  Playbook her brother passed down to her.

Safari on iPad doesn't support adblockers/tampermonkey, right?

It also can't synch worth a poo poo if you also use Mail on MacOS. I can read an email on my Mini and iPhone will still show an unread number long after.

mastershakeman posted:My 4.5 year old is going to be fully online for preK and got a Chromebook with a touchpad for doing his school work. He has no idea how to use a touchpad, and I'm looking at iPads now after never having one before Get a base model iPad. Cheaper, larger screen than a Mini, still supports the Pencil, easier to replace if broken or stolen. Unless your child is literally Mozart or Michelangelo reborn, they will not need the extra horsepower of a Pro.

Is there a recommended phone/tablet stand? Being able to also support portrait mode for an iPad (without tipping over) preferred.

What can Apple really do to upgrade the Air that won't raise the price too far from the OG model, or cannibalize sales of the 11" Pro? As far as I can see, there's only 3 possible upgrades for the Air: Center Stage camera upgrade, 64 > 128gb, updating the SoC to an A15 to match the Mini. You can't add 120hz, that's a pro feature. You can't add mini-led, that's a 12.9" Pro feature. You can't start at 256gb because that's more than the Pro base models. Maybe Face ID, but that seems to be a Pro-only feature too. And you can't go M1 for the same reasons. Maybe going up to 6gb ram? They already have BOLD NEW COLORS, soo... Mister Facetious fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Feb 20, 2022 |

hatty posted:Tablets are big enough you can prop it up on your chest and hold it up with you non dominant hand and use your good hand to interact. I’m curious how people hold it that makes their arms tired, do you suspend it over your head or something? Fat arms are heavy to hold up for extended periods

Eww no, that's going to gently caress the battery life. Just gimme the a15, 6gb ram, center stage, macro mode on the rear ultrawide, four speakers, and (most importantly) 128gb storage for the base model (this won't happen  ) I have enough stuff i want stored later for offline use i can probably make decent use of that amount, but 256gb will take a while.

So, iPad pro 11" 128gb is CAD $1000, iPad Air 256gb is CAD $950. Twice the storage, half the refresh rate, half the speakers. And a tenth of an inch smaller screen. 🤔

fourwood posted:Isn’t it basically the same prices as the last gen Air? If you want more than 64gb storage you're better off paying CAD $50 more for the 128gb 11" Pro than getting the 256gb Air. - 120hz screen vs 60 - 4 speakers vs 2 - 600 nits vs 500 - 11" screen vs 10.9" - 2 rear cameras vs 1 - Time of flight sensor for AR vs none - thunderbolt vs usb-c

Clark Nova posted:the answer to every question in this thread: a regular ipad is fine but you should get an air instead, if you're looking at the air a pro is only like $50 more, if you're considering the 11" why not just get the 12" pro, if you max out the storage on the pro it also comes with more memory

~Coxy posted:The base iPad is priced such that I wouldn't cross-shop a Pro just for longevity. My only complaint with the iPad 9 is that missing that fourth gig of RAM can get annoying sometimes. My iPhone 11 doesn't have as much of a problem keeping poo poo in memory.

FCKGW posted:That was actually a brilliant ad campaign and spoke to iPad's core audience of people who find computers too complicated and want a piece of technology to do basic tasks on the internet so of course nerds got upset and took the ad 100% literally. It can run Safari in desktop mode and it runs Google suite, YouTube, and Netflix, what more does a computer need for most people?

Jose Oquendo posted:I pulled the trigger on a new iPad Air. I'm looking at keyboards for it and is there a reason to go for the Apple Magic Keyboard over something like the Logitech Combo Touch Keyboard Case? Functionality seems to be the same and it's significantly cheaper. If you actually plan to type on your lap the Apple keyboard will be more stable.

The Grumbles posted:Honestly, the stage manager stuff feels pretty fundamental and not like a gimmick to me - I have a pretty generic office workflow - coupla browser tabs, coupla google docs, coupla spreadsheets, email client - which is probably shared by most people - and from what I've seen this is gonna essentially mean I can bring my iPad to work and use that instead of the crappy ancient work Dell. It's literally just a fancy looking Windows Task Manager moved to the left side instead of the bottom.
