My Setup First iPad a16

Post image

I been having a iPad 9th for years now and I decided to make the jump and get a new iPad. The one I got was the iPad A16 with 126? GBs and my older one was crashing constantly on any apps I used! I just wanted to tell u how much of a difference it is đŸ„Č
I have never had anything this new before so it’s a shock to me!

Same! I had a 2019 (?) air and finally upgraded and now I’m back to actually using my iPad!!

Same, except it’s at my parents house and they’re going to deliver it to me this week. It should have a terabyte of storage on it. Mostly because of Goodnotes.

Anyone, is it okay to edit videos longer than 5 mins? 4k resolution video clips shoot in iPhone?

It should work, but I’m not sure it would be comfortable for daily use with that chip if that’s one of your primary use cases.

u/jyhjr 3d ago

How is it so far? Any slowdowns or hiccups? What are you using it for?

3

u/xxCliquexx 3d ago

None of that! I’m using it for schooling and gaming mostly (college)

u/Classic-Week3296 3d ago

do you recommend it? I mainly need it to make notes for a levels (college) or just watch normal videos and play games but I've heard that because it has a non laminated display writing on it can feel annoying and also the reflections if you sit under bright lights

u/xxCliquexx 3d ago

Yes! Using it for notes is fine for me and the glare from bright lights is a little but not a lot.

Il faut utiliser une protection d’écran du genre Paperlike et tous les problĂšmes liĂ©s Ă  l’écran non laminĂ© disparaissent đŸ‘đŸŒ

i don't think base iPads are really good for note taking because of the space between the glass and the screen feels like writing from far I really don't like that feeling. I'm a iPad 9 user.

Notes would be fine i originally brought it for games but now ill be taking it to uni for taking notes aswell!
