an iPad I'm Riley murdog and this is the iPad 11th gen they've made 11 of these things and they' made them so many times they're just like you know what let's just make it look the exact same let's just change the inside now you may have noticed that recently we unboxed the iPad Air M3 and you might be looking at that and looking at this and saying to yourself that is the that looks like the exact they look that looks the same not only does this look similar to the to its direct predecessor the iPad 10th gen but it looks almost the exact same as the iPad Air M3 which came out alongside this just to show you here's that M3 iPad Air they uh that's uh that's the same that's the same iPad I guess they're thinking that like you know iPads are basically just so good now that we basically just have to use this this is a good body why fix what ain't broke you know what I mean wait a second you might be thinking if there're the exact same body pretty much maybe it's compatible with the magic keyboard attachment for the iPad Air but actually no the magnets are not in the right spot and also it doesn't have the Pogo pins that connect but cuz so I guess not however it is compatible with its own magic keyboard folio attachment but before we talk more about this actual iPad let's see what's in the box here we got the standard paperwork doesn't come with stickers anymore we've got a 20 W charger and we've got the USBC cable here nice and sleeved which I discovered in the other video is about 1 M long okay before I get distracted by any other tangents let's take a quick look at the outside of this thing which as far as I can tell is pretty much identical to the iPad 10th gen the predecessor here so let's look at them both together on this side we've got the volume up and down buttons on the top we've got those Touch ID power buttons the two speaker grills only one of which actually has speakers in them on this side we've got those Pogo pins so they do have you know they do work with their own accessories just not the other ones use the right accessories the ones that Apple tells you to use okay on the bottom we've got the another two speaker grills and USBC now unlike in the higher end iPads this USBC Port only supports USB 2 speeds up to 480 megabit per second Max so just be aware that's what you're getting with the base model iPad and yeah as we can see like the design EX on the exterior is very very similar for these one is a different color though so note that but the 11th gen does come in the same colors as the iPad 10th gen they have kind of more colorful colors as opposed to kind of the more muted options for the iPad Air and iPad Pro because when you are when you have less money you're allowed to have fun with it because otherwise You' just be sad uh there are some differences between these iPads though which we'll be able to see when we turn them on and oh look at that it's a word from our sponsor paperlike if you thought that nothing could replace that Sketchbook that you carry around with you think again transform your iPad into the ultimate writing and drawing companion with paper like 2.1 a uniquely designed screen protector that uses proprietary micro bead technology called Nano dots to emulate the stroke resistance of real paper it lets display light shine around and through the screen protector with minimal refraction so you get optimal picture quality and little to no glare they even have 100 day satisfaction guarantee so if you're not completely satisfied or messed up while putting it on you can get a free replacement or refund pick up a paper light today at the link down in the description now the obvious difference between these two iPads is that the iPad 10th gen runs the A14 chip and the iPad 11th gen has been upgraded to the Apple A6 processor which is the same one found in the iPhone 15 lineup although there some of them have the bionic chip but this is the a16 non Bionic so that's obviously going to give us a performance upgrade uh hopefully Labs will tell us uh about that in a minute but Apple also says that you know they're they're the same Hardware wise except for this screen they say that the iPad 10th gen has a 10.9 in screen and the iPad 11th gen has a 11in screen the same screen size as the iPad Air 11 in cuz there's also a 13in but I am trying for the life of me to see any kind of difference here and the bezels look the same the size of the actual body is oh nope it's the same I thought for a second I was tripping but nope it's the exact same what are we what are we talking about what are we smoking here Apple in terms of the displays being .1 in different there's the difference in chips giving an upgrade we're going to look at our Benchmark data from Labs in a second but the more interesting thing to me is the fact that apple has dropped the price again for the base model iPad they upped the price to 450 bucks for the iPad 10th gen for the 11th gen they've dropped the price back down to 350 bucks and doubled the starting storage from 64 gigs to 128 gigs so as I said in the iPad Air M3 video you know I give Apple a lot of crap over on TechLink for their whole ecosystem thing antitrust you know they're fighting against regulation trying to keep their closed garden stuff going on W Garden but when it comes to their budget low tier products they're doing some okay stuff Kudos again all right let's look at the performance numbers so like I said this has the Apple a16 in it it actually has one fewer CPU core than the A14 which had six cores this thing has a five core CPU but it has six gigs of memory to the iPad 10th gen's 4 gigs of memory so we got two more gigs of memory one fewer CPU core but despite that we're getting better performance here than on the A14 in geekbench single and multi-core we got 22 and 23% better respectively and there actually wasn't enough RAM to run our normal 3D Mark steel Nomad light uh GPU test so Labs ran Bay instead and we saw a 22% performance boost there as well more GPU power more fun in our 3D Mark Wildlife extreme stress test we got a 25% increase in performance and one interesting note is that the abased uh Apple chips seem to throttle less than the M series chips in the iPads and maybe that's because there's just less power going on in in general but one thing for your mom to note and for our battery life test we got about the same amount of battery life for both iPads A14 and a16 versions got around 9 hours all right but numbers are one thing what is it like to use I mean you know this is kind of the question every time you you start looking at the mid to low tier iPads as opposed to like the iPad Pro the iPad Pro exists as this kind of Showcase of all of the most advanced stuff that Apple can fit into a tablet and here it's more about like what's the bare minimum we can do without getting complaints from people turns out the bare minimum is still actually really good I mean like I'll show you I'll show you it's good you know like it's it's this is a $350 tablet it's the base model iPad things look nice and sharp the speakers sound pretty good you know like actually I want to compare them directly to the air M3 speakers okay I think is that louder I don't even know they sound a bit different okay so the iPad Air M3 speakers have a little bit more body to them there's a little bit more base to them these sound like I tiny little bit more tiny and I'm and I'm hearing like a little bit of distortion at that at a little bit more Distortion at the max volume than I hear over here both of them aren't you know they could be better but again tablets pretty good speakers for tablets the fact that I just recently tested this out and we're like those speakers are pretty good and then I played this one and I was like oh those are pretty good I actually had to put them side by side to tell that there was the difference maybe I'm dumb all right while I have them right next to each other I will say that the displays for both of these iPads the iPad Air M3 and the iPad uh a16 spec-wise are about the same uh they're both same resolution LCD 60 HZ IPS and they're both rated for 500 nits of brightness but our Labs team actually found that the this iPad Air M3 could achieve 540 nits uh so I mean kudos to this guy the 13-in iPad Air M3 can actually do 600 nits uh apparently but we don't have that one in studio so we can't verify it the other difference with the displays is this this one has an anti-reflective coating and this one does not which you can see actually when we look at one of our studio lights here you can see that the reflection on the M3 is a lot darker than the one on the the the base model iPad so there you go science so other than that creature comfort of the anti-reflective coding I mean you're dealing with a user experience here in terms of like you know the display at least that is very very similar between this $350 iPad and that $600 iPad Air M3 but what about the cameras let's look at that so on paper Apple says that the hardware here is pretty much the same as the hardware in the other one so let's let's check it out yeah okay that is a photo I mean it looks pretty good and which is exactly what I said about the other one that's a 12 megapixel Apple software processed camera what about the selfie mode oh that's way better okay you know what I didn't I didn't uh call it out as much in the previous video because I it didn't I was just so taken back by how insane I looked but the processing seems a little strong on this one I know it's like just a 12 me megapixel camera but I'm always kind of surprised that the processing and the overall quality on selfie cameras seems to be like much worse than the C the quality on the back camera I feel like these days most people are using their selfie cameras a little bit more than their back cameras I don't know I don't know but you know it's fine it's a tablet camera is it good for FaceTiming your grandma it's going to be good okay chill I was thinking about this whole buy your mom an iPhone thing because a in the last video I did on the iPad 10th gen I made a big joke about how I was going to buy your mom and iPad and don't worry it's already happened you like it's in the past forget about it but B uh the whole Tim Cook buy your mom and iPhone thing came about because Android and iOS didn't support the kind of like uh Rich messaging features that were required in order for you to send a high quality photos and stuff this guy was saying I can't send my mom you know good photos or she can't send them me and Tim Cook in all of his wisdom replied buy your mom an iPhone but there's another thing where I'm going to give kudos to Apple uh they're going to support encryption now even on RCS after they added RCS support a while back and now just regular messaging between Android and iOS devices is going to be pretty good I'm not actually sure about the whether that's fixed the like Ultra compressed image problem with the messages but maybe the whole buy your mom and iPad buy your mom and iPhone thing is invalid at this point so as much as I've criticized Apple in the past for kind of inching the iPad closer and closer towards you know like a full computer experience only to kind of pull back at the last second uh they seem to be earnestly trying to give product options to their consumers that make sense in terms of price to Performance would it be nice to have an iPad that cost less than $350 for sure but them just taking the price down by 100 bucks and doubling the storage are things that they should have done a while back they shouldn't have never hiked the price to begin with but the fact that they're doing it now along with the $600 Mac Mini and you know the iPad Air M3 is like more expensive but it's still pretty decent I I I I it feels weird for me to say that I like what apple is doing in this segment but I do and this right here is a midcycle refresh we got basically the same Hardware as before with new internals and I'm excited to see what they do when they do a more substantial upgrade because I want iPads to get weird again let's add features that don't belong there at all okay guys let's get wacky Tim let's get wack wild and you should go wild on that subscribe button to this channel
