How to choose the right iPad for you
- Apple sells six iPad models in a wide range of sizes, prices, and capabilities.
- Each tablet has its strengths and weaknesses, so selecting the right model can be challenging.
- The smallest iPad is the iPad mini with an 8.3-inch display. The largest is an iPad Pro or iPad Air with a 13-inch screen. Prices range from $349 to $1,299 (and up).
- Any of these computers can use an Apple Pencil for taking notes or drawing and can turn a tablet into a highly capable laptop with a click-on keyboard and trackpad.
- The iPad 10 is an affordable and capable computer, while the iPad mini 7 is best for portability and e-book reading. The M2 iPad Air is the Goldilocks of tablets, and the M4 iPad Pro is the most powerful and expensive option.
- Each iPad has its pros and cons. For instance, the iPad 10 is great value for its price, but the screen isn't laminated. The iPad mini 7 is portable but pricey for an e-book reader. The iPad Air is the best compromise between features and price, while the iPad Pro is a no-compromises tablet for professionals.
- Ultimately, choosing the right iPad depends on your needs, budget, and personal preferences. There's not a bad tablet in Apple's lineup, so don't panic about selecting the wrong model.
- Every iPad that Apple sells today includes a USB-C port, which means it can charge from the same cable as a MacBook or recent iPhone, and use accessories meant for Mac, like external drives.
- Overall, selecting the right iPad is all about finding the right balance between price, performance, size, and features.
- This guide offers straightforward advice on picking the right iPad for you, whether you're a student, a professional or an average user.

- Learn how to use Apple Intelligence for the Mail app on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac to compose professional emails and take your communication to the next level.
- Here are six ways to use Apple’s built-in AI in the Mail app on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
- One of the features is “Summarize” that condenses the complex message or a long thread of emails in a few seconds.
- Moreover, Apple Intelligence understands the content of your emails and it will float that message to the top of the Inbox in a “Priority” section so it gets your immediate attention.
- Additionally, Smart Replies is a feature that suggests quick replies above the iPhone and iPad keyboard in the Mail app, this usually works best for small question-based messages.

- For more convenience, the ChatGPT integration in AI can generate an email for you based on a prompt. You can mention what you want your email to say, and the AI generates the text for you. There is also an AI tool to rewrite, proofread, and summarize your emails.
- Some features require the newest beta software, such as iOS 18.2 and its equivalent.
- Supported devices include iPhone 15 Pro, 15 Pro Max, and the entire iPhone 16 line-up, new iPad mini, and all iPads and Macs with Apple silicon chip (M1, M2, M3, M4, and their variants).

Review: KUXIU's iPad Magnetic Charging Stands Make Your Screen Float and Power Up
- KUXIU's Pro MAX line of magnetic charging stands aims to solve two persistent iPad stand issues that frequently crop up: Positioning and power. Each model serves different needs - the X33 offers a traditional desk stand form factor, the X36 provides an adjustable arm design, and the X44 adds a rotating base for maximum flexibility. These CNC aluminum stands share the same core feature: Magnetic attachment with integrated charging through the iPad's Smart Connector pins.
- The build quality of the stands is impressive, particularly on the X36 Pro MAX, though the joints on the X36 are notably stiff. The stands deliver up to 18W charging through the Smart Connector, leaving your iPad's USB-C port free for other connections. Since they use the Smart Connector, your iPad thinks it has a physical keyboard attached whenever it's mounted.
- The X33 offers a traditional desk stand form factor and strikes an excellent balance between stability and desk space efficiency. The X36's seven adjustable joints plus horizontal and vertical adjusters make it a great option for multi-display setups and Sidecar users, though its stiff joints do require some muscle. The X44 splits the difference, adding a rotating base that's particularly valuable for collaborative work.
- While all three deliver on their charging promises, your choice largely depends on your workspace needs. KUXIU is currently offering decent Black Friday discounts across the Pro MAX line.
- KUXIU's magnetic protective case is designed to work with these stands while maintaining compatibility with Apple's Magic Keyboard. The case also proved troublesome with the Magic Keyboard and its slippery texture and tight fit make the case difficult to remove once installed. While it's nice to have a case option that works with the charging stands, it's expensive for what it is.
- Each KUXIU Pro MAX stand fills a distinct niche, with thoughtful engineering and solid charging performance across the line. Given the stands' feature set and build quality, the promotional prices represent decent value, particularly for the X36 with its long adjustable arm and the X44 Pro MAX with its versatile rotating base.
- Note: KUXIU provided MacRumors with the iPad charging stands and case for the purpose of this review. No other compensation was received.
