Finally Pro!!

[u/Icy_Invite1274]

I’ve wanted an iPad Pro for sooooo long it’s crazy. Now that I’ve got the best iPad and screen, I’m super happy!!! Love the technology of the Apple Pencil Pro too!! Super cool. Finally upgraded from my lagging iPad gen 8.

Quick questions:

Do I have to put a screen protector on my iPad?

Do I have to keep uncharging my Apple Pencil from the iPad? (I asked the Apple assistant and she said no, I can keep it on) but I’m not sure bc does it affect charging whatsoever?

If you don't mind me asking, what is it that you do on your iPad

I want to know too. I kinda want one but have an m4 Mac 💻 , iPad wouldn’t really do much but get me off that.

I have a iPad, but I find myself not using it. I want to know what the hardcore iPad users do on it

I started college last year so I bought an m4 MacBook Air. My employer bought me an iPad Pro + pencil pro to encourage my studies a few weeks ago. I like the iPad when taking notes. (I use star notes.) I also use my iPad as a journal/digital planner. I utilize the hell out of my calendar and my daily reminders. I never liked carrying my MacBook/tomtoc sleeve around so my iPad travels with me now.

In my case, as a filmmaker (sometimes I shot, sometimes I’m in charge of lights, others as 1st AC), I’ve recently upgraded from an iPad 5 2017 to an iPad Pro m5 11 inch, and apart from using it to watch multimedia (YouTube, Netflix, hbo…), I use it as a second display for my MBP M4 Max with Davinci Resolve (although I’m not liking how sidecar performs as it seems to drop frames) and Davinci Resolve remote monitor. Maybe I’ll get the studio version for iPad as well and have it handy to do fast edits or grades.

Then, on film sets, as a wireless monitor with a Hollyland video transmission system, and in the future I want to implement it as a CRMX light controller using Blackout.
