this iPad sport only supports the 20 plus year old USB 2.0 standard that's insane as the standard supports transmission speeds of just 480 megabits per second this is absurd when you consider that the discontinued 4th gen iPad air from 2020 with the same A14 chip supports USB 3 speeds how about the screen yes this is technically a liquid retina meaning it has the round corners but this screen is actually no better spec wise than the one installed on the 9th gen iPad as well it's not laminated so there's a gap between the top of the glass and the bottom of the panel and it displays fewer colors too outputting the srgb color palette instead of the DCI P3 found in more expensive models I don't mind that as much as the fact that it doesn't seem to have an anti-reflective coating and is this even oleophobic there's so many fingerprints you're going to want a good screen protector oh and there's no headphone jack as well so if you want to give one of these things to your kids remember that airpods are choking hazard so at 450 is this iPad worth it no and things get even weirder when you look in the refurbished store at the time of writing a two-year-old iPad Air with the exact same chip and none of the compromises is available for only twenty dollars more a four-year-old iPad Pro with a chip in the same performance tier remember the list I made is also only twenty dollars more if you want a little more storage you can get a three-year-old iPad Pro for 100 more and if you want a lot more storage that four-year-old iPad Pro is 60 less than the equivalent 10th gen compared to this getting one of those is a complete no-brainer and remember Apple's refurbished iPads get a completely new chassis and Battery though I think because of the more modern chip equivalency I'm going to be leaning towards recommending a refurbished air but it also shows something else very interesting the iPad Pro has been in the B performance tier for four years then two years later the iPad Air joined the B performance tier so for a similar price you can get a cheap iPad or one that was an expensive model a few years ago or if you think you're going to be using your iPad for a long time and you have the cash you could get an expensive one now and get all the fancy new features in fact the iPad I daily here at the office is a beat up 2017 iPad Pro it has that beautiful promotion screen and it still screams it does everything I could ever expect an iPad to do incredibly well but the battery is now wearing out so that's a 100 repair oh the battery's dying well I really get a battery health level in here but if you need a new model now I'm still happy to buy use and recommend the 9th generation model or look in the refurbished store for the extra 120 dollars the 10th generation iPad commands it's only really useful for those who are doing lots of video calls and don't need the pressure sensitivity of the apple pencil which might be most people just not me thanks for forgetting to record the outro for this Mac Address Jonathan if you like the colors of the new iPad give this video a like and if you're curious about more of my thoughts on the iPad particularly with the pro might as well subscribe now I'm curious are you one of those people who will never use the pencil and therefore the compromises of this iPad won't matter comment below and also I have a little surprise"}
