OK,
I
posted a limit on my IG just this morning. The
above is to say that the 2021 version of the iPad Pro currently sold by Costco also has an M1 processor
inside, and
its 128GB price is $
22,899 . The difference between the 256GB of
the newly launched
iPad Air
is only $1 Taiwan dollars.
I know I have talked about
the gap between the two in the previous video,
but the actual selling price in the market is
just like the good market we see now.
It 's actually
a little cheaper than the iPad Air. I think
this makes it more difficult for many people to choose.
I have
received more private messages. Should I
wait?
Is it possible?
There is an M2
, is it something... Wait a minute,
I'll come back here and explain it well,
because I've seen this myself,
I think it's a bit difficult to choose,
we'll discuss this issue together today, this time in 2022. Is the
5th generation iPad
Air worth buying
? Or what kind of people should buy it
? OK, let's get started
. OK The first question to answer is
whether
you should wait for the M2 version at this point in time. At this point in time
, the iPad Pro will
be launched together with the Mac with the M2 processor, or will it
be cut off? Of course, we don't know very well at the moment.
I think if it is said that the
M2 processor
will be in June this year. If
it is officially launched, then maybe the iPad Pro
may be a little later,
but I personally think that at that stage, the price gap between
the M2 version of the iPad Pro and the
iPad Air may
not be as close as it is now .
So why is that
because
our expectation is that
this time the 11-inch iPad Pro
may also be upgraded to a
mini LED
screen . According to many sources, there is no such upgrade.
According to many sources, it is
because the production of mini LED screens is not enough.
When we upgraded to the mini LED screen
,
the first thing we need to know is that
its body has become a little thicker, and the
second
is that its price has increased a little bit,
so we can also think about
it this
time. It happened on 11 inches
. In this case, many viewers feel that it is more difficult for
them
to choose.
Should they wait for the M2 version ? I think it comes back to
a question on the most basic needs. How much
do you think about this iPad? You just don't really need it
, but you want to buy it as an entertainment machine or something,
but
you don't want to buy the upcoming version. I think if you are in this state of mind, it
means
that you don't really need to use it.
Right,
it 's a superfluous thing,
you might just want to buy it, if it 's just a want If you
buy something, of course I think it's just waiting,
because in your current situation,
if you think that the price of the iPad Air is too close to the iPad Pro, it's
not worthwhile
, then when
you
look at the iPad Pro again , you think it's okay to say
, right? The M2 version is coming out again.
I
don’t want to buy it now, and it’s not worth
it. Basically,
it means that you don’t have an urgent need for this device.
Then you wait until the M2 version comes out.
No matter whether the price of the M2 version will increase by then,
I believe that it is now both There is an iPad Pro version of M1, and
its
price will also be adjusted downward.
At this time, whether you
buy
the reduced price version from a dealer in the market,
or go to Apple to buy the new machine directly,
its price will definitely be lower.
Relatively
cheaper than it is now .
In fact, the gap between M2 and
M1 is not a big gap between the iPad Pro
or the overall
iPad .
I personally think that at least
now
iPadOS gives it.
In fact, even if it is the gap between A15 and M1, you will not feel so obvious.
We just talked about the limitations of iPadOS. Can we expect to say that in June this time,
if the iPad Air is also upgraded to the M1 processor
? It doesn't mean that Apple may make a relatively large
update to iPadOS . We are in the same situation back to last year
. Apple also launched the M1 version of the iPad Pro in the spring . Putting this
processor
on the iPad Pro means that in June we
will see a more desktop version of iPadOS on the iPad Pro. It turns
out that it is not even
as we previously expected,
maybe Final Cut Pro
or some professional The software
will finally be released to iPadOS, and I
still haven’t seen
it, so I think if I
want to use this expectation to say that
Apple may finally make iPadOS closer to macOS
and buy this version first,
I don’t think it ’s a big deal.
Necessary because
if you really have a need for productivity,
if you are looking forward to buying this iPad
, it may
be used more like a Mac in the future.
I think it means that if you really use it,
you may need a Mac
or an iPad. For you, it is a more auxiliary
or entertainment device.
At this time, you may buy a Mac
for your productivity. It is a
more valuable and reasonable approach.
You need to buy what you need first. If
Apple really does When such an update is released, it will
really liberate iPadOS, and it
will not be too late to buy an iPad, right?
Well , let's go back to the
iPad Air itself . Now
the iPad Air has launched this M1 version,
I think In terms of capacity selection, Apple
also deliberately only gives you 64GB and 256GB because they know that
if they
give you a 128GB in the middle
, it will become the most popular choice
because its price difference and iPad Pro
will pull out a more reasonable range,
but We often think about which one may be more cost-effective because of
the processor or
the size of the screen.
In fact, the iPad Pro itself is relatively the same as the iPad Air
, except that the current processor is
the same.
In terms of screen or other specifications, there
is still a very large gap.
Let's first look at the main lens from the
back . Although it should look the same, it
still has an extra wide-angle lens and an extra LiDAR,
which you may not use. Go to it, but
you can think about the ultra-wide-angle lens or LiDAR
. It may be in portrait mode. When you take pictures,
if you can use a camera,
it will be more convenient to use
. Then let's turn it around.
To the front, the lens with the person
in the center now has both,
but on the iPad Pro, they still have the function of Face ID on it,
so on the iPad Air, it
is only fingerprint unlocking
, and on the iPad Pro, it
is the Face ID unlocking
myself . When
using iPad,
most of them are at home
or in the office.
I will not wear a mask
. I personally think that Face ID
is actually more convenient than fingerprint lock
because I think it is fingerprint unlocked. On the
power button, sometimes when
you are in different situations,
I am not used to saying which finger to
use to lock or how to set it.
I think it
is more intuitive to unlock the Face ID directly when you turn it on.
Simpler unlocking method,
so this is also a very big gap.
Do you care about
fingerprint unlocking and Face ID
? If someone is very concerned about the CP value,
they think that the Face ID module
feels a lot more
expensive .
It should be more
cost -effective. Of course, there is also the screen in the front part.
In fact, the screen looks similar.
Its size and resolution are slightly different because the iPad Pro is 0.1 inches larger.
I think this can be ignored in use. You won't have that obvious feeling.
It's just that the chamfered corner of the edge of the screen,
the curved corner,
looks
a little more natural on the iPad Pro . It's
just like I said it's not so important,
but the screen itself is
like the largest The brightness is a little bit worse, and
then
it's on its screen update rate, on top
of the screen update rate. We have to explain this
, not everyone will experience the difference.
If you use it in general, if You are simply swiping the page to see the
video
, the situation of the video
Next,
almost no video is played at 120Hz.
Most of what you see
may be
24, 30 or 60, etc.
So if your main use case
is to watch videos, you
will generally not feel the difference. Where is
this 120Hz? It will feel better, of
course , if you often swipe the web, etc.
I think this is a refreshing feeling
. If you are not used to the smoothness of the 120Hz screen
, you
may not feel the difference at all,
but when Once you get used to this 120Hz and
then go back to 60Hz , you will feel the difference at least a few days or a week ago .
I think there is really a decisive difference is whether
you want to use this iPad for drawing
because I think the difference in experience when using Apple Pencil
for drawing is very, very obvious , especially if you are using it professionally today,
and you really rely on drawing for a living
, or if you are reading related Department,
or you are really
interested in drawing on the iPad , if you
spend most of your time on this,
then I really think that buying an iPad Pro
would be a smarter choice
. Next, let's talk about the part of the socket
.
Although the current iPad Air has an M1 processor, in
theory , it can also support Thunderbolt 4
in the socket part,
but now it seems that there is no on the specification sheet,
it is still only I dare say that this
part supports USB 3.
In fact, if you don't
use an external hard drive externally,
you will be completely insensitive,
but if you buy this iPad
or iPad Pro
today, you may want to do some video editing. If
some data needs to
be stored and transferred from an external hard drive,
there will be a slight difference because in fact, on the iPad Pro,
even if it supports Thunderbolt 4
, its transfer speed is still not as fast as Thunderbolt 4 on a
real Mac,
so you I also have to think about
the gap between the two,
or whether you really use an iPad,
do you really use an external hard drive, or do you
really use it for editing,
then go back to what I just said earlier
If you really need
productivity and you
do a lot of editing videos on it, maybe
the iPad itself is not suitable for you
, but if you have some simple and light editing, or
you are used to doing it in the mode of iPadOS
In the case of video editing, of
course,
everyone has different usage habits.
Some new generation people just think that it is more convenient to use the
touch screen for editing.
At this time, you have to think
about the difference between the two,
although they are also M1. The processor,
but one only supports USB 3
and one supports Thunderbolt 4. How important is this to you? The other is the speaker and speaker part
. Now, in fact, the iPad Air also supports stereo,
but in i On the Pad Pro, it is a
four- channel speaker
. Of course, this is for watching a video.
If you really need entertainment today,
or some kind of video,
you think the sound effect is very important to you,
but of course, on the tablet,
its sound effect It won't be very, very good
, or maybe you may want to really listen to the scene
and experience the difference between the two to
see if this part is a very important
one. One reason why you decide which one to choose is
OK, so we In the end,
if you bought an iPad Air today,
as I said earlier,
your needs are very simple.
You think the 64GB storage
capacity is enough for your use.
You think you may use iCloud
or what you usually use. If you do
n’t need to use such a large amount of storage at all, I think
it’s a worthwhile choice
to buy iPad Air with M1
because you are using the lowest price
to get into this tablet with M1.
In fact, it
is A15. Speaking of which, it
may be the most powerful tablet on the market
and then put
it into the M1, of course,
if you have these real needs, the
experience will of course be different,
but if you want to go to the next level and
buy 256GB, let's see It's the same as the current iPad Pro's price
of 128GB.
The difference between the two is 128GB. It
doesn't matter to you.
Generally speaking, 128 is enough for most people.
Then you can buy it at the same price.
Speaking of so many more
hardware equipment,
or if you actually
use
it as an entertainment machine, the experience will be so much better
, I don't think there is any reason
to recommend the iPad. Air
, but I think everyone needs to be very clear about what
they need. Many people are
actually like me when they buy things.
Sometimes they look at something.
For example
, the one I want to buy today is the iPad Air.
I know that I may not need anything.
But when you see that it only has 64GB
, although you don't need that capacity,
but you will look up.
You look up and you think that the price of 256
is $22,900
. Then you look to the side and see
that the iPad Pro
is also sold for $22,900 on the outside of 128
.
You will have this kind of thing. I feel like you can buy better with a pinch .
Sometimes it will be a vicious circle that
continues
to extend upward.
The manufacturer's price cuts like this,
or the gap
is just to attract you to keep buying up, so
sometimes you have to wake up and
think about what you really need.
Maybe just buying the most basic iPad Air
is enough for you.
Maybe if you really think about it,
you may not have to buy it
. You really need to clearly state what you need.
In addition , the point you need to think about
is generally mild . For use with documents
, even if you want to add an Apple Pencil
or a combination of a keyboard,
the price still has to be added.
At this time, if you don't need these capacities,
its 64GB is enough for you,
and you want to have it. If you
have a keyboard with trackpad
and this whole set,
then you can get a keyboard set and trackpad
with the most entry-level version of the iPad Air for more than $9,000, and
you can get a keyboard set and a trackpad for about $25,000.
You can get one like this.
You need to do general word processing,
or basically simple editing
, entertainment, or class use
. This overall combination is very enough for you to
use . The gap between this 256
or the iPad Pro The difference between 128 and the price is $7,000~8,000.
You can buy a keyboard set, you can buy a pen
, which is the equipment you can actually buy. The
overall experience with you will be much better, so
everyone has to think about it. It's OK to
see what you really need.
Well, today's video
is basically to analyze these gaps.
I hope that after all these are spread out, I will
finally think about my own needs.
