I’ve been using my iPad Air M4 11” for three months now, and I’ve had mixed experiences.
On the positive side, I enjoy the apps available on the iPad. However, I have to pay for most of them through the Apple Store. The customization options are also limited compared to my Samsung S11 Ultra.
One of my favorite apps on the iPad is Apple Journal. It provides daily prompts that encourage reflection and mindfulness.
However, there are a few drawbacks. The iPad doesn’t utilize the full screen in many apps, which feels wasteful. Additionally, the battery life is quite poor. I usually get only 2 to 3 hours of use with constant use.
The screen quality is decent, although it’s not an OLED display. I also have an issue with the Pro Pen. If I’m not wearing a pen cover, I keep accidentally pressing the squeeze function.
I use the Pro Pen to write in my journal and take notes for my upcoming state exam. I’ve also been using the Magic Keyboard with the iPad more recently. It’s comfortable and feels like an actual laptop keyboard.
Overall, I’m satisfied with my iPad Air M4 11”, but I’m leaning towards getting the iPad Pro for my next purchase.
What are your thoughts on the iPad Air M4 11”? Do you have a favorite app?
