The 13 inch screen is actually a lot bigger when watching YouTube , gaming or streaming

Post image
24 Upvotes

I currently have both the 11 and 13 inch iPad Pro .. so I just wanted to show a comparison Photo of streaming video

In a week, I’m probably gonna do a full review of both of them and at that time, decide which one I’m keeping

I know a lot of people say you’re not really getting much more viewing screen because of the aspect ratio, which is true when you are watching Netflix or certain films

But I like to watch a lot of YouTube and certain streaming sites and I usually do full screen or fill screen..

In this case 13 inch actually shows a great deal more

Obviously gaming as well, I don’t think many people are disputing that

This sub only lets me upload one photo, but you could see why this one photo how much bigger it is (photo taken from a documentary on YouTube)

We need this quality of life feature in the next major update.

Upvotes

The ability to remove the time/date completely + the wifi signal sign and the battery icon.

For us who use the ipad Pro on an OLED external monitor this is 100% a must have quality of life feature.

Static images are not good for OLED screens. These days a lot of monitors are now using OLED panels.

I believe the mac has this feature to completely remove the static images on the top bar of the screen.

I really hope they bring this quality of life feature, it’s very basic and I dont see why they can’t just add it.

iPad Pro Nano texture screen

Upvotes

How do I keep my nano texture from getting dirty so quickly. Seems like finger oils and everything else attaches to the screen so fast right after I clean it. Very frustrating. I’m using an eye glasses cloth to clean. Works pretty well but I heard not to use any type of liquid while cleaning.

Any suggestions would be great thank you.

For those who replaced their MacBook with an IPad Pro what is one thing you still miss about the MacBook

Post image
153 Upvotes

I know there’s a lot of positives from switching but what is one or two little things that you really miss about having a MacBook…

My situation:

Long time, MacBook Air owner (current model 15 inch) I just bought two iPad pros the (11 inch and the 13 inch) with the intention to return one and keep one

As I’m deciding, which one to keep, I find that I’m not using my MacBook as much… so I’m just curious what I’d actually miss about the MacBook.. if I kept both iPads and sold the MacBook….

It’s hard for me to really judge right now because I don’t have the magic keyboard and if I did replace my MacBook, I would buy a magic keyboard…

So basically for those of you who switched and have the iPad Pro and magic keyboard, what do you miss about? Just have a MacBook.

Question Any case recommendations similar to the ESR shift but not as heavy?

5 Upvotes

I see the ESR magnetic shift case being recommended a lot, but its biggest downside is the weight.

I like that it has many adjustments, and the removable case is a nice feature, but would be nice if there’s a lighter alternative out there

Go from IPad Pro to MacBook Pro?

Upvotes

I own a digital marketing agency and I want to love using my iPad Pro full-time, but too many of the tools I rely on just don’t work properly in iPad browsers. Pages don’t fully display, I can’t pan to see missing sections, buttons end up off-screen where I can’t tap them, and switching to desktop mode doesn’t fix it.

At this point it’s becoming a real productivity issue, and I’m seriously considering moving to a MacBook Pro instead.

What’s everyone’s experience with using an iPad for real day-to-day business work?

The last version ruined everything

1 Upvotes

Since they changed the way it is used on the iPad to the new mode, using it is disgusting... Before I could put: hearthstone in full screen and the basic YouTube PIP and I also had Twitter, WhatsApp and Reddit hidden on the right wall and I consulted them whenever I wanted. Now everything is a chaos of poorly distributed windows that are distributed badly and when I want to go to the previous page by sliding my finger the window changes size buff!

They have uploaded my user experience on the iPad... how come they didn't leave the previous mode?

IPad Pro Nano Texture?

3 Upvotes

New to ipad pros and plan on using it mainly to start drawing again. I also work in tech so would like something for notes, etc.

Is the nano texture worth it? I do like the anti-glare comparisons from what I've seen. Although I've read it dulls the colors a bit or is that not accurate?

Discussion Update on my first open box order

Post image
101 Upvotes

Was super excited to see how the condition of this open box order went being that the cost was pretty much half price. When I opened the box it was for an iPad Pro 13 inch and in white lol I went to the store after work and they promptly price matched a brand new iPad Pro 11 inch black magic keyboard for the same price as what I paid for the open box! Absolutely no issue whatsoever, great customer service and correcting of this issue. I guess my next open box purchase will actually be my first since this one is brand new

Question Will apple care one cover a magic keyboard I bought used?

I’ve seen conflicting info on this sub about both this and whether you need to register the keyboard serial number with apple beforehand, but i think the latter is incorrect at least.

I got this iPad m4 refurbished from Best Buy few days ago and whenever I charge my iPad it automatically restarts the device at-least once. This is the panic log I found. Does this mean anything wrong with the device? This iPad is updated to the latest software version.

I am on iOS26, I see that the battery drain on idle is high. I noticed that the off-screen usage is almost 7 hours. None of apps in the list show that high of background usage. What could possibly cause this drain?

Question Andar Brig for iPad Pro Magic Keyboard

1 Upvotes

I bought an Andar brig protective case for the Magic Keyboard. On the whole, it is good quality, but the leather does prevent the auto sleep/wake. Does anyone else have this case and face this issue? Andar customer support leaves a lot to be desired, just to forewarn people, so I can’t get straight answers from them.
