1
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:56,079
yeah the new ipad is cool in fact it's super cool

2
00:00:55,199 --> 00:01:02,239
but can cool replace a laptop

3
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:08,000
yeah at least it can depending on what it is

4
00:01:05,119 --> 00:01:12,479
you would need to do with your laptop like for example if you need to protect

5
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:18,400
your laptop or tablet and make it look awesome well then our sponsor dbrand

6
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:20,080
works just as well for the ipad pro as

7
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:24,400
it does for a laptop making it look sweet and protecting it from incidental

8
00:01:22,479 --> 00:01:27,840
scuffs and scratches check out dbrand at the link in the video description

9
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:38,960
so tablets are going through kind of a crisis of identity right now like if

10
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:44,640
they were people they'd be in their sort of early 20s who am i faze

11
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:50,000
you see when the first ipad came out it was understood to be a new class of

12
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:54,720
device that exists in addition to the ones that you already have not as a

13
00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:58,479
replacement for them then the novelty wore off and people started asking

14
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:01,920
themselves wait what was the point of these again

15
00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:07,040
that's when we started seeing an attempt from manufacturers to marry the

16
00:02:04,479 --> 00:02:11,039
qualities of a tablet and a laptop microsoft was among the first to

17
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:15,920
popularize this fusion with their surface line tablets that ran Windows

18
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:20,560
and could be paired with a super thin keyboard a mouse and a pen

19
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:25,360
then came the two-in-ones which were full laptops whose touchscreen displays

20
00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:30,080
could be swiveled or outright removed and then used in tablet mode and then

21
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:35,599
finally apple formally joined the fray in 2015 with the first ipad to be

22
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:41,280
marketed as a laptop substitute the original ipad pro it was actually kind

23
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:45,200
of bizarre like they even had microsoft join them on stage during the

24
00:02:42,959 --> 00:02:49,519
announcement to talk about how you could be super productive using office on the

25
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:55,040
new ipad so was this it had apple bless the

26
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:58,480
world's best tablet with an actual function that is beyond distracting our

27
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:02,720
cats so they won't bother us while we get work done on a real computer

28
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:06,319
well apple clearly feels that they did because it looks like the ipad pro is

29
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:11,280
here to stay it got a minor hardware revision last year and a complete

30
00:03:08,239 --> 00:03:13,440
overhaul now for 2018. so we've got the

31
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:18,800
11 inch model here but there's also the 12.9 inch model both of which boast

32
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:23,680
increased screen to body ratios thanks to their edge to edge screens

33
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:28,640
though it isn't entirely clear which edge apple is talking about because i

34
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:33,519
still see a bezel and it's even got a more utilitarian physical design with

35
00:03:30,799 --> 00:03:37,519
square edges like a macbook pro they've thrown in their faster eight

36
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:44,319
core a12x bionic processor which is supposedly 92 percent faster than all

37
00:03:40,799 --> 00:03:46,319
the portable pcs and has xbox 1s class

38
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:52,000
graphics performance whatever those mean there's face id faster and more secure

39
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,680
than touch id and usb type c which

40
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:58,319
actually makes this the most computer-like tablet ever from apple

41
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,920
thanks to its ability to connect to external displays and a vast number of

42
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:06,400
accessories finally they launched a new apple pencil

43
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:10,159
which now snaps magnetically to the side of the ipad pro to pair

44
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:14,000
and charge personally i actually kind of liked the

45
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:18,160
old way but i get no i'm just kidding that was horrible

46
00:04:15,439 --> 00:04:22,720
i can't believe this took three years go apple but none of what i just said

47
00:04:20,639 --> 00:04:27,280
addresses the biggest difference between a macbook and an ipad with a keyboard

48
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:31,600
iOS and it's here that apple has done a

49
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:37,440
fairly admirable job of tweaking iOS to be more like a desktop operating system

50
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:41,120
using apps in split screen is still nice and the a12x chip actually makes

51
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:46,560
everything super fast like it's impressive how smoothly and

52
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:51,520
quickly everything occurs on the ipad pro and it's made even more snappy by

53
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:58,000
the pro motion display with its adaptive 120 hertz refresh rate but the fact is

54
00:04:54,880 --> 00:05:00,000
iOS is still missing some critical

55
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:05,199
features that it needs to be a standalone computer for pro

56
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:11,039
professionals here are some of those features in no particular order one a

57
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:13,280
true file manager the iOS files app only

58
00:05:11,039 --> 00:05:16,800
shows your icloud drive what

59
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:21,360
two support for external storage we finally have an iOS device with usb

60
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:25,840
type-c but it won't recognize a thumb drive you know what

61
00:05:22,840 --> 00:05:28,160
apple three

62
00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:33,840
better external display support you can connect displays via usbc directly or

63
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:38,720
through an adapter but it always just duplicates your ipad screen unless your

64
00:05:36,479 --> 00:05:42,320
specific app supports a second screen experience four

65
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:46,240
there's still no keyboard and mouse support so if you're using it in laptop

66
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:52,560
mode with the keyboard you'll have to reach up and touch the screen anytime

67
00:05:47,919 --> 00:05:54,960
you want to navigate like you're a chimp

68
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:58,240
five the pencil is sort of useful as a mouse analog

69
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:02,400
except that you still have to switch between your fingers and the pencil to

70
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:05,919
perform certain actions like navigating between apps and going to the home

71
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:11,199
screen i guess that's why this guy got so good at twirling it six the keyboard

72
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:14,639
folio only lets the ipad sit at two angles which honestly is just

73
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:17,199
unacceptable in a world that also contains the surface pro's friction

74
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:22,400
hinge seven there's no headphone jack

75
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:27,520
i'm sorry but i'm still salty look how big it is

76
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:30,960
how about it maybe even just on the 12.9 inch

77
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:35,120
right they got the same hardware so

78
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:40,639
how can a pro accept these kinds of compromises well the answer is that

79
00:06:37,759 --> 00:06:45,039
there are many different types of pros professional artists professional

80
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:48,720
writers professional video editors accountants scientists business owners

81
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:53,199
brand managers each of these pro fashions warrants a

82
00:06:51,199 --> 00:06:57,199
different answer to the question of whether the ipad pro can replace a

83
00:06:55,919 --> 00:07:00,400
laptop i think probably the best angle you

84
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:06,560
could take on that front would be artists the pencil and the ipad pro

85
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:09,360
together are extremely impressive the

86
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:13,599
precision responsiveness and overall feel is quite possibly the best

87
00:07:11,919 --> 00:07:17,919
available on anything other than a high-end wacom tablet

88
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:22,319
so artists then die they can probably replace their computer this right

89
00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:26,240
well maybe illustrators and graphic designers at the verge got to try an

90
00:07:24,319 --> 00:07:31,440
early version of photoshop for the ipad pro and one of the photo editors shared

91
00:07:29,039 --> 00:07:36,319
that while it was cool she missed her keyboard shortcuts

92
00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:39,599
and i think that kind of says it in a nutshell doesn't it

93
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:45,199
it can but professionals who professionally

94
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:50,319
you know hit their deadlines and stuff will probably share similar concerns

95
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:55,520
don't get me wrong the ipad pro has all the things that people use a computer

96
00:07:52,319 --> 00:07:57,919
for a web browser apps games

97
00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:01,759
even an available keyboard the whole ipad pro can be your next computer thing

98
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:05,360
is true it's just only true for a small

99
00:08:03,599 --> 00:08:10,560
percentage of the people who we would traditionally describe as

100
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:16,639
pros for everyone else the ipad pro is still a secondary device something you

101
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:18,879
have in addition to your real computer

102
00:08:16,639 --> 00:08:22,800
in other words it's a tablet

103
00:08:20,479 --> 00:08:26,800
but okay before we you know bang the gavel and pronounce

104
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:30,800
judgment on this thing let's pretend for a moment that we are an artiste

105
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:34,719
contemplating replacing our computer with the ipad pro

106
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:40,560
that's where pricing comes into it this device starts at 799 for the 64 gig 11

107
00:08:38,399 --> 00:08:43,839
inch model add the keyboard and pencil that's eleven hundred dollars but then

108
00:08:42,479 --> 00:08:50,399
if you're using this as your primary machine you're probably going to want the 12.9 inch one and let's give you 256

109
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:55,600
gigs of storage as well that one's 11.50 so then the keyboard

110
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,560
and pencil brings us to 1450.

111
00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:00,480
you know what else you can get for around that price the brand spanking new

112
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:05,839
surface pro 6. oh yeah totally forgot microsoft has a

113
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:11,760
tablet running full Windows 10 with a core i5 also 256 gigs of storage

114
00:09:08,959 --> 00:09:15,839
excellent keyboard trackpad mouse support and a pen

115
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:20,560
which isn't quite as good as the apple pencil but it's pretty freaking good and

116
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:24,959
it's actually less than fourteen hundred and fifty dollars now i'm not going to

117
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:29,120
come out and say that anyone who's considering the ipad pro should just get

118
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:34,800
a surface pro instead but if you are considering an ipad pro as

119
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:38,959
your main computer you might want to consider a surface pro

120
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:43,519
or at the very least you better be pretty dang sure that you need that

121
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:47,920
special apple pencil experience so that you can create an artfully illustrated

122
00:09:45,839 --> 00:09:52,080
itinerary of your vacation to maine because to me

123
00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:54,880
that is this device's primary selling point

124
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:58,320
i mean perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that apple is selling a device more on

125
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:03,360
the premise of what it could be used for and their vision for

126
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:08,480
the future of computing rather than what you the end user are actually going to

127
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:10,160
use this doodad to achieve

128
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:14,320
that's kind of been their jam for a while but

129
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:19,120
maybe that's okay like if you don't go in expecting the

130
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:23,839
ipad pro or tablets like it to replace your laptop you are probably going to be

131
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:27,839
pretty darn happy with this thing and i think that it's enough to say that

132
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:32,880
this is an incredible tablet that is more powerful and capable than most

133
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:38,240
other tablets in its class because it really makes the most sense to me out of

134
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:43,360
any other tablet as a companion device like the surface line

135
00:10:40,079 --> 00:10:46,320
it's more like two-in-ones laptops that

136
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:50,720
can be used as tablets as for this well this is a tablet that can be used as a

137
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:55,040
laptop maybe i'm wrong perhaps powerful tablets

138
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:59,200
that can do it all are the future of computing

139
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:05,200
but the main issue today is that apple is not going to lead us there with iOS

140
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:11,200
in my opinion what they need to do is make macOS more touch friendly or make

141
00:11:08,399 --> 00:11:15,839
iOS much more robust because as it stands the ipad pro can replace your

142
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:21,920
computer but it shouldn't speaking of things that shouldn't

143
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:25,600
we shouldn't do segues like this they're awful we all have our everyday

144
