Apple’s new iPads look amazing, but there’s one big problem

  • Apple unveiled new iPad Pro models with exciting features such as a new M4 chip and OLED displays.
  • The iPad Air is now available in a 13-inch model option.
  • But the real issue is iPadOS, which is still limited in comparison to a traditional computer operating system.
  • Multitasking is limited and the experience of using iPadOS for productive work can be more tedious than efficient.
  • The iPad is primarily designed for artistic creatives, such as visual artists, musicians, and photo and video editors.
  • Apple needs to make iPadOS interesting again if the full potential of the new iPads hardware is to be realized.
  • The WWDC 2024 is just a month away and there are rumors of a big upgrade with iOS 18, which could mean big changes for iPadOS 18 too.
  • Until then, the new hardware may be enticing, but the current state of iPadOS leaves much to be desired for those wanting to use the iPad for serious, productive work.
  • For the average user, previous iPad models, such as the 10th-gen iPad and iPad mini, can still provide a similar experience.
  • It is hoped that Apple can produce software which takes advantage of the powerful iPads hardware to meet the demand of professional users.

The Better Purchase: Apple iPad Air M2 or OLED iPad Pro?

  • Apple iPad Air M2 could be a better purchase than OLED iPad Pro due to its aggressive pricing.
  • Though OLED display is definitely a better choice for viewing, the price difference doesn’t make it appealing as iPad Air M2.
  • The M2 iPad Air features a Liquid Retina display with True Tone and P3 wide color support that is impressive.
  • The M2 packs the same chip technology that previously powered the “Pro” models which are more than enough for most users.
  • iPadOS brings near identical features on both the iPad models making it difficult to perceive the extra power of the OLED iPad Pro.
  • The Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil are also compatible with the affordable iPad Air M2, making it a capable productivity machine.
  • Battery life is similar for both iPad Air M2 and OLED iPad Pro with a claimed 10 hours of web browsing and video playback.
  • The price gap between iPad Air and OLED iPad Pro is significant, with the OLED display and a slight performance bump on the Pro models justifying the extra cost for some users.
  • For most users, the affordable Apple iPad Air M2 with excellent features, beautiful display, and exceptional performance offers incredible value.
  • The best Apple iPad for you depends on your specific needs and budget, but if you can live without the bells and whistles of the Pro models, the M2 iPad Air is an excellent choice.
