They really gimped this iPad by not adding an A17 and 8GB on RAM. Hence the “limitations” this article references.
What I need is for projects to work across platforms - one of the most important things - ridiculous they didn’t implement this yet. Even if some features are reduced, this would make me use it on the iPad.
At this point they are really two different products.

Why not? I love doing things for just scheiße und kichert lol. ;p
But on a more serious note, I usually make everything smaller. I set my M1 MBA scaling to true retina 1:1 scale (2560 x 1600 native) using EasyRes app. I also set text size to the smallet allowed on any of my Apple devices as well. So yes, at least for me, using FCP on iPad mini is not a problem.
I mean it would be hard for me unless it’s an easy project… Honestly I wouldn’t pay for that… I prefer the Mac version! They need a one time purchase for iPad !
I was at the apple store tonight and saw resolve on the ipad and was puzzled at how you do all the edits with your fingers or even apple pencil. way easier/more efficient to just use fcp or davinci on the macbook. for mobile editing I use videoleap and it is perfect for mobile editing. I've done a lot of complex edits on it. just wish you could export the edit to xml for fcp.
Yes I agree about that and since I have Final Cut Pro on my Mac… I would never pay for a less convenient software… Apple should absolutely include this software when you buy the Mac version.
This is such an incredible deal when you think about it, the 10th generation iPad initially started at $449 and only had 64 GB storage, this has 128 GB!
And throughout last year, Amazon and Costco were very often selling the 10th generation iPad (brand new) for only $249 (when Apple sold it for $349) so I wouldn’t be surprised if Amazon does pretty good deals on this new iPad as well (that can be price matched by Best Buy, Staples, Costco, etc)
You probably won’t be able to get it for $249 anytime soon but I wouldn’t be surprised if Amazon relatively quickly discounts this to $299 with occasional sales at $279, those prices are insanely good for what you get with this iPad
I am constantly recommending this to friends and family that are looking to get one as it is so much better than the the previous 9th generation. Like night & day better, yet the same price
