White patches suddenly appeared on my iPad Air M2 (11-inch). No drop or pressure damage. Anyone experienced this?

I have an iPad Air M2 (11-inch) that's over a year old. Today, I suddenly noticed several irregular white patches on the display. The iPad has never been dropped. It has never been under pressure or bent. There are no cracks or visible physical damage. The patches are not reflections. They are visible immediately when I turn the iPad on, even before iPadOS finishes loading, so I don't think it's a software issue. Restarting the iPad didn't help. Has anyone experienced something similar?

Where can I buy an iPad 11th Gen or iPad 10th Gen at the old price?

I was planning to buy an iPad 11th Gen (or even the 10th Gen), but the recent price hike has made it way more expensive.

Does anyone know where I can still get one at the old price? Maybe an offline store with old stock,

Any suggestions or recent experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! 🙏🙏

Will the new base iPad really cost $500?

Apple hiked the price of the base iPad to $500… Does that mean that the new iPad will cost as much or even more? Will I regret not buying the a16 for $390 right now?

Ridiculous amount of storage taken for “iPadOS/system data”😭 (ipados27)

iPad Air 5th gen (m1)

33.7gb iPadOS
15.4gb system data

I get it I get it, 64 gb storage is kinda not enough in today’s standard (pls don’t belittle me) but the fact I literally can barely use my iPad because of this voluptuous amount of storage usage is just so annoying. Otherwise I think iOS 27 is one of the greatest updates we have ever seen from apple, especially compared to the previous (iOS 26)

iPad AIR M3 - IOS 27

I’m really looking forward to trying the newest iPad OS! Anyone there using an iPad Air M3 running iOS 27?

If so, I’d love to hear your thoughts on how it performs and how long the battery lasts.

Background download on iPad.

Why things from browser don't download in the background?

The moment I minimize the browser to open, let's say whatsapp or youtube. the download is killed.

I need to be able to do other things while a 30GB file downloads at slow to medium speeds in the background.

Can't ' leave your screen turned on' while it's downloading either. As it makes the iPad Pro a very expensive paperweight.

It is a fatal issue and how do people don't talk about it?

Or am I doing something wrong and there's a setting you need to change.

I have tested in all sorts of browsers, Safari. chrome, Brave, Arc.

Nothing worked so I'm gonna conclude it's an actual issue.

Problema con Bluetooth en iPad Air 11" M2 (6.ª generación): se activa y desactiva solo, se congela Configuración y a veces se reinicia

Hola a todos.

Estoy teniendo un problema bastante extraño con el Bluetooth de mi iPad Air de 11" con chip M2 (6.ª generación) y quería saber si alguien ha pasado por algo similar.

Compré el iPad en agosto de 2024 y durante todo este tiempo funcionó perfectamente. Sin embargo, hace aproximadamente 3 meses comenzó este problema y desde entonces ocurre todos los días.

Lo primero que noto es que, al entrar en Configuración y tocar la opción Bluetooth, la aplicación se queda congelada durante varios segundos antes de abrir esa sección. Esto solo ocurre con Bluetooth; si entro en Wi-Fi, Batería, General o cualquier otro apartado, todo abre de inmediato.

Mientras la pantalla está congelada no puedo hacer nada. El iPad deja de responder a los toques y, en algunas ocasiones, después de insistir intentando salir o tocar otras opciones, el sistema termina reiniciándose solo. Justo antes del reinicio aparece un destello verde muy rápido en la pantalla (menos de un segundo), luego la pantalla se apaga y aparece el logo de Apple. Todo ocurre tan rápido que no he logrado grabarlo en video.

Cuando finalmente consigo entrar a la configuración de Bluetooth, el interruptor se activa y desactiva solo de forma aleatoria, sin que yo toque nada.

Como consecuencia de esto:

  • Mi Apple Pencil Pro se conecta por unos minutos y luego se desconecta cuando el Bluetooth se apaga.
  • Mis AirPods Pro (2.ª generación) también se desconectan o incluso se desvinculan del iPad.

Antes de que apareciera este problema, mis AirPods cambiaban automáticamente entre mi iPhone 14 Pro Max y el iPad sin ningún inconveniente. Actualmente siguen funcionando perfectamente con mi iPhone todos los días, por lo que no creo que el problema esté en los accesorios.

Hace aproximadamente una semana me comuniqué con Apple Support por teléfono. Con mi autorización realizaron un diagnóstico remoto utilizando el número de serie del iPad y me indicaron que no detectaron ningún problema de hardware relacionado con el Bluetooth.

En un principio pensaron que podía ser el Apple Pencil, así que lo desvinculé por completo, pero el problema continuó exactamente igual. Después comprobé que tampoco podía usar mis AirPods en el iPad, aunque en el iPhone funcionan sin ningún problema.

Hasta ahora ya intenté lo siguiente:

  • Reiniciar el iPad varias veces.
  • Restablecer los ajustes de red (Wi-Fi y Bluetooth).
  • Restablecer todos los ajustes del iPad.
  • Actualizar a iPadOS 26.5.
  • Intentar actualizar y restaurar el iPad desde un PC con Windows usando la aplicación Apple Devices.

Sin embargo, tanto la actualización como la restauración fallan aproximadamente a la mitad del proceso indicando que el archivo o firmware se corrompió, por lo que nunca logran completarse.

Otros datos que pueden ser útiles:

  • El Wi-Fi funciona perfectamente.
  • El iPad nunca se ha caído, nunca ha recibido golpes y nunca ha tenido contacto con líquidos.
  • Siempre ha estado protegido con funda, protector de pantalla y un estuche rígido para transportarlo.
  • No tiene daños físicos visibles.
  • Sí pude grabar un video donde se aprecia que la configuración de Bluetooth tarda en abrir y cómo el interruptor se activa y desactiva solo. Lamentablemente no he podido grabar el reinicio porque ocurre de forma inesperada y muy rápido.
  • Actualmente mantengo el Bluetooth desactivado la mayor parte del tiempo para evitar que el problema esté ocurriendo constantemente.

¿A alguien le ha pasado algo parecido con un iPad Air M2 o con otro modelo reciente?

¿Creen que podría tratarse de un problema de hardware aunque el diagnóstico remoto de Apple no haya detectado nada? ¿O hay alguna otra prueba que debería intentar antes de llevarlo a un Apple Store o a un servicio técnico autorizado?

Agradezco mucho cualquier sugerencia o experiencia que puedan compartir.

26.5.2 all ok?

Previous update got finally my keypads working, no problems with changing between languages. All is good finally after the disaster of 26.4. There are few emojis missing but I can live with it. Has anyone using multiple keyboards/ languages gotten any problems after installing 26.5.2? Sorry I have become super sceptical about these updates as it took me several weeks to get my iPad to work again after installing 26.4…

Will you be able to disable Apple Intelligence to save Storage Space?

What the title says, and I looked it up and am getting conflicting answers, what do you guys think. Got a 128gb ipad and would like to have as much space on it as possible within the constraint, and don't care even a little bit about siri or apple intelligence

Hi , I have been thinking on buying an ipad a16, for drawing, image and video editing and some gaming, the problem is storage, so I would like to know if I could install apps on a hard drive, or it is only to do data transfer?, could i edit videos and storage them directly on a hard drive?

iPad 9th gen extremely laggy after iPadOS 26 update

I bought the iPad just under a year ago from the Apple Store, it was working perfectly fine. But 3 weeks ago I updated it from iPadOS 18 to 26, and it’s suddenly become extremely laggy.

It has 200GB worth of space left, so there is no reason for it to be laggy due to storage. I waited the break in period and nothing changed.

The lagging is extremely bad, especially for such simple use (I mostly use the books app, files app, YouTube and Goodnotes).

Im really frustrated, I use the iPad for studying and reading. I spent my hard earned money on it and I don’t have money for a new one, not even close. Is anyone experiencing similar issues? Is my iPad done for?

Help!

My ipad is deliberately getting stuck here during iTunes recovery (26.5.2 version update and restore). iTunes says that iPad will boot. But it looped back to recovery mode.

I've tried 10+ attempts from Apple Devices, 3uTools and now iTunes. What am I doing wrong?

iPad Stuck on Recovery loop.

3uTools in iTunes mode, shown 100% Flashing complete, but the apple bar was stuck at 96-99%, iTunes mode thought the ipad is booted but its not, rather it looped back to recovery mode again.

I can't get into DFU Mode as the screen would never turn black from recovery mode while connected to the laptop.

I tried Apple Devices app and 3uMode none got the farthest in installing firmware than iTunes mode.

But the iPad itself isn't booting.

I tried to install iPadOS 26.5.2

iPad0S 27 is crazy on my ipad 9th gen

I had given up on my ipad 9th gen after updating to 26 . Its was sluggish lagging all the time and i could see the animations stutter. I reset the ipad and tried . It fixed some animation and loading screen but wasnt as smooth as 18.

I wanted to sell my ipad and get a m series ipad. Saw that people with 9th gen are having good experinece with 27 so wanted to give it a try (nothing to lose) and to my surprise the update fixed all the laggy and atutter stuff on my ipad. Its sooooooooo much better that 26 like crazy better. Its my initial days of 27 so will give it a run for some more days but initial update itself was soo smooth and after update too my ipad for the first time was smooth . Everytime after update it would take couple of hours to get back to normal but for the first time it was smooth instantly. I dont think its smooth as the 18 but its on par with it.

There are some bugs so be careful. Now i am more excited for ios 27 then ever before .
Will update the results after few more days.
