I just got a new M4 Air, and although it’s a beautiful device, I didn’t realize just how bothersome the display would be coming from an XDR MacBook Pro and especially an XDR OLED iPhone. I’ll be returning it for the Pro.

The colors pop, but as someone who uses Dark Mode all the time, the lack of true blacks is annoying. The worst part is the 60 Hz screen. It makes the experience (with UI animations) feel jittery/slow despite utilizing an M4 chip. My iPhone feels smoother with an A19 Pro chip.

It’s crazy how a lower refresh rate gives the illusion of lower performance. At least that’s been my experience over the past few days. I’m so used to 120 Hz.

I want to buy an iPad for studying and i had my eyes set on the new iPad Air that comes with the m4 chip while looking around I found a sealed iPad Pro m4 that came out in 2024 with the same price and I can’t tell what to go for do I pick more ram and newer iPad Air or do I pick the 2024 iPad Pro for the screen and other pro features any help would be appreciated

J'hésite à me séparer de mes AirPods Pro 3 pour financer un iPad dont j'ai vraiment besoin. Le problème, c'est que j'utilise mes AirPods tous les jours et j'ai peur de regretter leur absence au quotidien...

Selon vous, est-ce que le gain d'usage d'une tablette compense largement la perte des écouteurs ? Vous feriez quoi à ma place ?

It’s crazy to see how different times use to be!!!

I find it to be really still fast and responsive. App support no longer exists unfortunately

Hey guys,
I have an iPad Pro M2 11” 256 GB WiFi for sale

I mainly used it for productivity purposes and now I have an extra monitor and a mac I don’t use it much.
It has been properly maintained and has no issues whatsoever.

Plus, I am also including Apple Pencil 2 in the selling bundle.

If anyone is interested in buying the device, please DM.

I’m asking for around 67999/- for the bundle.

Price is slightly negotiable for buyers after inspection of the device in person.

My current location is : Kochi, Kerala.

I prefer face-to-face meetings within Kerala.

So I've been using the Magic Keyboard with my iPad Pro for years and honestly always liked it. Couple of weeks ago I took it off just to try something — threw the iPad in a slim folio case, and now it sits raised up in front of me with a regular Bluetooth Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse on the table.

I was fully expecting to go back after a few days. Nope. Having the screen higher is so much nicer for my neck, portrait mode with a keyboard turned out to be weirdly good for writing, and I've started picking it up and using it like an actual tablet again — something I basically never did when the keyboard was attached.

Only annoying part is the little wobble when I tap the screen, since it's just a folio and not clamped into anything.

Now I'm sitting here wondering if I should just sell the Magic Keyboard lol. Anyone been running a setup like this long-term? What are you using as a stand, and did you eventually come back?

Hey everyone!
My girlfriend and I are starting to create content for Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. We already have an iPhone 15 Pro and an iPhone 13 Pro for filming, and we have a budget of around R$3,000 (about US$500–600) for an Apple device to edit our content. We live in Brazil, btw.

We plan to use mainly CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, Canva and Adobe, plus some photo editing.
We’re currently considering a used iPad Air/Pro or an older MacBook, such as the 2017/2018 models. We know an M1 or newer MacBook would be preferable, but it’s usually above our budget.
For those who actually work professionally with video editing:
Would you choose an iPad or an older MacBook at this price?
Can an iPad realistically replace a Mac for this kind of work?
What are the main limitations of DaVinci/CapCut on iPad?
Is it better to buy an iPad now or save more money for an M1 MacBook?

My Apple Pencil pro is not charging ,I haven’t used in a while (few months) and now it’s not charging, please give some advice as to how i can make it work and charge it again, it’s stuck at 0% ☹️☹️☹️

Hello,

My ipad already has pretty bad battery drain (11% lost with 14 minutes of it being turned on), I have not used it a ton in the past 5 years but for most of the time its either been off, charging, or using it for drawing/some games. I'm worried the times I've left it charging for days or weeks drained the battery faster, I know the newer ipads protect against this but I've found no information on what's best for older ipads. Now I've been leaving it turned off or not on the charger when not in use, what's the best for the battery health? I'm broke and can't buy a new ipad anytime soon and really need this one for drawing.

I am definitely guilty of mindlessly scrolling for far too long, so recently I have been trying to use my iPad pro more intentionally. Here are some of the apps I have been using to stay creative and crafty and make the most out of my ipad:

- Ribblr: you can find crochet and knitting patterns and follow them interactively on your iPad. A great way to find new things to make!

- Airbrush: A photo editing app, perfect if you're into photography. It's also useful for crafty people, I use it to clean up photos of finished projects, remove random objects/background clutter and make things look a little nicer before sharing them.

- PlantNet: it's not technically a craft app, but great if you’re into pressed flowers, botanical art, gardening or collecting plants. You can take a photo and find out what you’re looking at

- Coolors: This is for when you're creating and exploring colour palettes before you start your next project

- Pigment: love love this one. it's a digital colouring book with loads of different pages and realistic pencils, markers and brushes. it's perfect when you just want something easy to relax with

- Libby: a little different, this is for borrowing ebooks and magazines from your local library. you can find some crafty books on there and also just for general reading!

I would love to know if anyone has more creative/crafty iPad apps to recommend! Especially for things like sewing, embroidery, jewellery making, painting or DIY. Let's share them to help each other out because I know I'm not the only one who wants to avoid doomscrolling!

It can be with or without Bluetooth or a trackpad. Preferably with an attached mouse or trackpad to make navigation easier. Does anyone have any compatible recommendations for me?

Just ordered a M5 iPad with Pencil Pro and keyboard. Trying to decide if I need a screen protector and if so which one.

Any input?
