This week on MacStories Unwind, Federico proposes an iPad Pro experiment and he and I both recommend Steam Early Access games, one of which is also on iOS.

The latest iPads are strange beasts. Beyond the cheaper base iPad, you have the iPad Air and the iPad Pro. They’re both at the top of their game. They’re more powerful than ever, and the more expensive version has processing capabilities nearly equivalent to that of a MacBook. And as tempting as the...

Every now and then a corporation is at least a bit funny when going about their late-stage capitalism. For instance, Samsung has released an absolutely perfect diss-ad response to Apple’s recent crushing PR disaster. Read more...

Ryan Christoffel quoting Apple’s Greg Joswiak on 9to5Mac: The fact is that the majority of Mac customers have an iPad, and they use them both Which lead Ryan to argue: there’s one big reason this will likely never happen. If iPad owners get access to macOS

A comparison between the M2 and M4 iPad Pro, my initial impressions and close-up photos of the Magic Keyboard

While I’m not sure I want an iPad that runs macOS as Matt suggests I am sure that my iPad is my favourite form factor for a computing device. I’m typing at it now, but I often grab it off my stand and take it to another part of the house to have a recipe, […]

The consensus about the new iPad Pro is in: the hardware is more powerful and impressive than ever, but it’s still largely hampered by software that just hasn’t managed to keep up.…

I had some thoughts about each iPad I owned on the eve of getting a new one.

The MacBook Airs are Apple’s best-selling laptops; the iPad Pros are Apple’s least-selling iPads. I think it’s as simple as this: the current MacBook Airs have the M3, not the M4, because there isn’t yet sufficient supply of M4 chips to satisfy demand for MacBook Airs. — John Gruber

A few observations and thoughts on the dynamics of the Apple enthusiast community in the narrative of the past 8 years evolution of the iPad and Mac as Apple platforms. A bit of attention paid to the role of podcasters/publishers in how the narrative was created and how it evolved, how it is still e...

MacRumors, on Threads, just four days ago: Apple’s thinnest device ever.#ipadpro #bendgate Tim Hardwick, writing on MacRumors today: Despite videos indicating that the 2018 iPad Pro models bent more easily than other models, Apple said the bend did not worsen over time or negatively affect the iPad’...

I linked to this in my iPad Pro review, but in case you missed that, Federico Viticci has done everyone who writes about iPadOS a service and written a detailed account of what we mean when we say “the iPad hardware is let down by its software”: In our community, we often hear about the issues of iP...

Steve Troughton-Smith details all the ways iPadOS lacks… and not for the first time: You can summarize every iPad review for the past decade: iPad hardware is writing checks that its OS simply can’t cash. …

The more I think about it, the more I’m squarely in the camp of people who want iPad-like hardware that runs macOS, and I’m not sorry for saying it.

There are so many parts of Steve’s iPad Pro manifesto I would quote here on MacStories, but I’m going to limit myself to just a couple of excerpts. What I like about this story is that it’s a balanced take on the limitations of iPadOS from the perspective of a developer, laid out in a […]

This comment from a thread at MacRumors about Joanna Stern’s iPad Pro review explains a point I’ve been trying to make for awhile: It can be frustrating to repeatedly highlight that many tech reviewers overlook that their use of a computer is not the only use of computers. Apart from digital artists...

Source: Apple. Late yesterday, iPad Air and Pro reviews were published, and I spent the evening reading and watching many of them, so I thought I’d share some highlights. At Six Colors, Jason Snell, who has used and reviewed iPads for years, brings an excellent perspective to Apple’s latest iPad Pro...

This last big Apple release was such a doozy that you’d be forgiven for only paying attention to the siren call of a new OLED iPad. I’ve had the chance to get intimate with these new tablet products and accessories, and believe it or not, it’s not the ultra-luxury, uber-expensive tablet that’s made ...

Today, Apple rolled out a new update for the iPad and iPhone, with the advent of iOS 17.5. One of the exciting additions is the Offline mode in Apple News+, which grants you access to the Today feed and News+ tab even when you’re offline. This means you can now download Top Stories, Apple News […] T...

Samuel Axon, Ars Technica: The new iPad Pro is a technical marvel, with one of the best screens I’ve ever seen, performance that few other machines can touch, and a new, thinner design that no one expected. It’s a prime example of Apple flexing its engineering and design muscles for all to see. Sinc...

Speaking of Jason, I re-read his original iPad Pro review this weekend, and this part really jumped out at me: But let’s pull back and get the big picture. No, keep pulling back, this thing’s huge. The iPad Pro is a tremendous piece of hardware. It’s the fastest iOS device ever. The screen is specta...

Speaking of Federico, he just published a banger of an article over on MacStories, discussing all the ways that iPadOS is still a mess, 14 years after the launch of the original iPad and 9 years after the launch of the first iPad Pro: I started using the iPad as my main computer when I […]

This tablet offers much more than you’ll actually need.

M2 Air won't draw new buyers in, but if you like iPads, these do all you need.

Apple’s hardware and chip teams are really at the top of their game. The new M4 iPad Pro is a sleek slab of concentrated computing power, tucked behind a spectacular OLED display.…

Let me cut to the chase: sadly, I don’t have a new iPad Pro to review today on MacStories. I was able to try one in London last week, and, as I wrote, I came away impressed with the hardware. However, I didn’t get a chance to use a new iPad Pro over the past […]

The latest M4 iPad Pro is easily the most exciting thing Apple has released this year so far. Yes, it’s even more exciting than the Vision Pro. But why, you ask? What, just because it’s smaller and lighter than the Pro from two years ago? The big reason why is the new, pretty OLED screen. But more t...

Apple's iPad ad might not have been good for Apple, but it was a profound encapsulation of what has happened on the Internet; the question is what it leads to next.

Apple had it's big event, but what do these new devices mean for developers? Are we impressed, is thin to thin? Why can't we have the M4 in our development machines? We discuss.

Doing a side-by-side feature comparison, the M2 iPad Air is basically the same device as the sixth gen iPad Mini, just with an updated system on a chip and a bigger screen. That said, I just traded in my 2018 Pro for credit on a new Air. I saved over $700 compared to going in on a new Pro.

I usually don’t write about this kind of stuff, primarily because I find these internet controversies to be quite boring. The probably appropriate response to an Apple ad is “meh, whatever” and that was—and still is—my reaction. The ad is uninspiring but there’s one creative aspect of it that bother...

Discussing Apple’s recent iPad marketing on his website Tedium, Ernie Smith discusses what’s wrong with Apple’s marketing to creatives in 2024, particularly the marketing of the iPad to creatives. He and I had had a conversation on Mastodon the day before and he mentions me in the context of this po...

Mark Gurman’s last minute “maybe an M4…” rumour turned out to be absolutely correct. No one would have batted an eyelid had the company gone with an M3. Instead it chose to skip a generation and bring a new generation of its processors to the iPad before the Mac. The unanswered question (so far) is ...

The World I see so many posts about the Aurora Borealis (?) from people in the North. Once again we citizens of the tropics are discriminated against! StackOverflow announced a partnership with OpenAI. People are upset. Yahoo. Ars Technica. Apple announced a bunch of iPad stuff I guess? Then they ha...

Currently Apple’s iPad playlist on YouTube has 4 videos. Let me say that again. Apple’s YouTube playlist for iPad has FOUR videos and one of those is for the “all-new iPad Mini” from two years ago. THAT. IS. RIDICULOUS. Apple, make an effort to demonstrate how an iPad can be a useful computer.

This week, we got a first look at Apple’s super powerful, ultra-thin iPad Pro (and iPad Air). Amazon also found a way to jam even more ads into Prime video. And finally, our review of the highly anticipated Rabbit R1 AI Companion. Let’s just say it won’t be replacing your smartphone anytime soon. Re...

I had to bring my MacBook instead of my iPad during a recent trip. For the whole time, I missed my iPad. Here are the reasons why I prefer the iPad over a MacBook.

This week on Connected: Federico and Myke are back from Apple Battersea to join Stephen in grading the group’s picks for this week’s iPad event.

Doc Rock on the May 7th episode of MacBreak Weekly is the first podcaster I’ve heard to clearly call-out the ridiculous iPad hot takes so common these days, especially in regard to the iPad Pro. “It’s funny when a lot of the conversation around the pro or the not pro is always about productivity. Th...

Apple released a number of new products this week, including new iPad models as well as some new software for its pro users with Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro. Apple also announced its quarterly financials, which Dave and I talk about, including products sold and total revenue. Finally, we talk about ...
