    iPad Pro What would you Need to See at WWDC to keep your M1 iPad?

    Hey all, so it’s no surprise at this point that a bunch of people are thinking of returning their M1 iPads based on WWDC. One of the things brought up is Pro apps, though that could mean different things. For example, if they just bring in Final Cut Pro and I see nothing about Xcode or things...

    I recently purchased the new iPad Pro 12.9 with the Apple Pencil and "Magic Keyboard" case. I am noticing a few things: I am unable to really change the angle that the iPad is displayed at, which may be an issue when I try to use it while standing at a counter and sitting at a desk. While in...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro - but what mic setup?

    Hi all. I'm upgrading from a 2017 iPad and looking at getting an iPad Pro. I use my iPad for work - recording video (front camera) and sound. Although the video recording of my 2017 wasn't the best clarity wise it was sufficient - and for sound quality I just popped in a Shure MV88 mic which got...

    iPad Scratch or hairline crack? Brand new iPad Pro 11 2020

    I bought a new iPad Pro 11 (2020) 3 days ago and I received yesterday. I was installing the screen protector when I noticed what it seemed to be a tiny scratch/hairline crack on the bottom right corner of the screen. The scratch/crack is almost impossible to notice unless you put the iPad...

    iPad Pro Convince me to keep my 2021 iPad Pro 11"

    I've had a 2018 iPad Pro 11" for a few years now and loved it. I'm a heavy Mac user but the iPad has its place for me, despite all the shortcomings of iPadOS. I use it mainly as my "meeting computer", keeping my M1 MBP docked on my desk while I go back and forth to meetings throughout the day...

    iPad Pro I dislike the Mini LED display.

    Anyone else noticing black crush, or smearing? Also, there’s a “shadow” that’s along the entire border. Also, this blooming issue is very present on mine. Slight blue shift as well. Not nearly as bad as the blooming IMO. What do you all think? Bad unit? This article was very informative in...

    iPad Pro New iPad 12.9 8GB Ram - Lightroom stuttering when editing

    Hey Gang, Like a lot of you, I got my the new iPad 12.9 256GB yesterday. As most of you are aware by now, anything less than the 1TB model has 8GB RAM, and 1TB and above has double (16gb). I was working on Lightroom last night, editing a raw photo (about 350MB), and when making edits in...

    Settings > iCloud > Manage Storage > Backups My new 5th generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro backup icon is the generic placeholder (or default, blank) with the black circles and lines. I tried deleting the backup and backing up again, but the issue persists.

    iPad Why is no one talking about this issue with M1 IPadPro 12.9

    I'm seriously considering buying iPad Pro 12.9 but I'm not sure if I should with this issue with the screen. This looks more like a screen hardware issue than a software issue which can be resolved in future. Funny thing is no one is talking about it. Please have a look at the video below:

    iPad Pro Are you buying a 2021 iPad Pro with 1TB 16GB?

    The specs are impressive but at almost AU$3000 including the Pencil, I would really need to sell my MSI laptop and Cintiq 16 Pro to buy it. The new hardware would need to replace the old hardware, and with the limitations of iPadOS that won’t happen. I think if I could attach an external...

    2021 iPad Pro - Good Temporary Case?

    My go-to case is the Zugu case, but they won’t be available for the new iPad Pro until July. I have a 12.9-inch iPad Pro coming this week and I want to protect it, but I don’t want to spend $100 on Apple’s Smart Folio. Any suggestions?

    All iPads Never fast enough, Am I the only one?

    Spoiler: this might be the most "first world problem" you read about today. I currently use an iPad pro 12.9 4th gen and I have pre-ordered the new 5th gen with estimated delivery in early June. I don't consider myself a "power user" but even for simple task on my devices, I feel like it's...
