1 00:00:00,230 --> 00:00:04,293 - Oh, my sweet, sweet iPads. I've missed you. 2 00:00:04,293 --> 00:00:07,388 (laughs) - [Jono] Is it a computer yet? 3 00:00:07,388 --> 00:00:10,530 - It's definitely a computer, yeah. I mean, like it's been a while since I did an iPad thing. 4 00:00:10,530 --> 00:00:17,190 This is nice. I, I used to do all the iPad reviews. Jono did you know every time you watched an LTT iPad review 5 00:00:17,190 --> 00:00:21,512 or iPad video even on ShortCircuit? I think I did most of them from like 2019 onwards. 6 00:00:21,512 --> 00:00:28,020 That's me baby. - [Jono] You did the Air last time. - The last iPad air, the fourth gen came out in 2020. 7 00:00:28,020 --> 00:00:32,670 I did the review of that on LTT and on ShortCircuit because I liked what apple was doing. 8 00:00:32,670 --> 00:00:35,960 As much as we challenge apple as much as we get up in their face. 9 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,504 I actually like what they've done. - [Andy] Your check is too loud. 10 00:00:39,504 --> 00:00:43,320 - Ah, the I iPad air. I was actually excited to see this 11 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,370 because I like what apple has been doing with their iPads. 12 00:00:46,370 --> 00:00:49,616 They kind of like took it from being this fun product for 13 00:00:49,616 --> 00:00:55,240 you know, your average consumer to just like play, and I don't even know what the mobile games are now to like 14 00:00:55,240 --> 00:01:00,070 you know, computers more or less iPad OS is a robust operating system 15 00:01:00,070 --> 00:01:04,535 but it still has a lot of limitations. So I'm interested to see what the M1 chip 16 00:01:04,535 --> 00:01:11,755 what it can do for the format. Ah, didn't see that coming, iPad air 17 00:01:11,910 --> 00:01:17,703 - [Jono] Mac dress opened it up before us so... - What? Mac Address already UN boxed this 18 00:01:17,703 --> 00:01:21,125 - [Andy] Describe to Mac Address. - Shut up Andy 19 00:01:21,125 --> 00:01:23,208 (laughs) 20 00:01:25,223 --> 00:01:29,720 what it's ripping? What? - [Jono] Yeah Horst ripped it... 21 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,850 - This is apple is just not the same as the one it was okay, 22 00:01:32,850 --> 00:01:36,872 well I'm ripping it then, 'cause like what am I supposed to do? So from what I understand 23 00:01:36,872 --> 00:01:40,590 this is like the same chassis more 24 00:01:40,590 --> 00:01:45,110 or less as the iPad air fourth gen. Although I've seen some complaints 25 00:01:45,110 --> 00:01:50,480 from some people about build quality maybe being slightly less impressive on this one. 26 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,130 Like they say that there's a thinner enclosure but like I don't feel, 27 00:01:54,130 --> 00:01:57,650 oh maybe I feel a little something but that just might be the emotions. 28 00:01:57,650 --> 00:02:01,499 Very, very happy right now it feels okay so I don't know that's probably 29 00:02:01,499 --> 00:02:07,907 it looks about the same build quality in the box We got the normal stuff papers, stickers. 30 00:02:07,907 --> 00:02:11,649 - [Jono] Aaaw, it's white lame. - You're the worst. Who cares about stickers? 31 00:02:11,649 --> 00:02:15,270 Like people are like, Ooh, I wonder what stickers are in the iPad air pro box. 32 00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:22,146 No, it's not a pro, but it looks like a pro USBC cable because once again, the iPads get USBCS. 33 00:02:22,591 --> 00:02:26,700 iPhones do not be until they get their act together. 34 00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:30,590 Doesn't have a power adapter in the box though. So that's unlike, they're still shipping power adapters 35 00:02:30,590 --> 00:02:35,620 with the iPads, but not the iPhones. So when I say the same chassis as the iPad air four 36 00:02:35,620 --> 00:02:40,620 what I mean is it's got these four speaker grills again 37 00:02:41,830 --> 00:02:46,950 but there's only two actual working speakers from what I understand because they've adapted 38 00:02:46,950 --> 00:02:50,339 the iPad pro overall chassis design that they 39 00:02:50,339 --> 00:02:54,370 I think first introduced in 2018 and in 2020 40 00:02:54,370 --> 00:02:59,840 when they updated the iPad air, they gave it that square bezel design 41 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:05,320 that they're gonna, I guess, put on all the iPads, the iPad mini even has that the new one 42 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:09,344 that you can use the phone but not actually, subscribe to Mac Address 43 00:03:09,344 --> 00:03:14,020 - [Jono] Again. - [Andy] Yes, please. - The iPad pro has face ID and the iPad air 44 00:03:14,020 --> 00:03:17,260 in lieu of that they used the same design overall 45 00:03:17,260 --> 00:03:21,690 but they took away the face and put in the touch ID, enabled power button, 46 00:03:21,690 --> 00:03:26,510 over here we got the volume rockers as you would expect. And I guess the, maybe that's a mic 47 00:03:26,510 --> 00:03:31,357 USBC port which this time is apparently two times faster 48 00:03:31,357 --> 00:03:36,130 than the one in the iPad air. And here's where things get really (beep) up. 49 00:03:36,130 --> 00:03:40,130 Let me tell you (laughs) you guys know 50 00:03:40,130 --> 00:03:44,960 about the USB naming and how messed up it is but this is what's so confusing to me. 51 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:49,780 The iPad air in 2020 supported five gigabits transfer speed. 52 00:03:49,780 --> 00:03:54,170 Okay. But at that time that was USB 3.1 gen one 53 00:03:54,170 --> 00:04:00,523 that's five gigabits per second. So the iPad air 2022 has USB 10 gigabits a second. 54 00:04:00,523 --> 00:04:05,523 But what apple is calling it is USB 3.1 gen two 55 00:04:05,870 --> 00:04:09,610 which is technically correct but that's not what USB is calling it anymore. 56 00:04:09,610 --> 00:04:16,610 The USB implementers forum is now calling that USB 3.2 gen two by one, two by one. 57 00:04:16,610 --> 00:04:20,400 I better 2020 head USB 3.2 gen one by one 58 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,710 is what they call it now at the time though, they called it USB 3.1 gen one. 59 00:04:24,710 --> 00:04:29,710 And now apple is saying this one has USB 3.1 gen two 60 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:35,383 which is actually supposed to be called USB 3.2 gen two by one. 61 00:04:37,390 --> 00:04:40,633 Okay. But if apple was gonna put in a 20 gigabit port 62 00:04:40,633 --> 00:04:45,950 in this one, it would be USB 3.2 gen two by two that's the fastest one you can get 63 00:04:45,950 --> 00:04:51,800 - [Andy] What like USB four? - I'm not even touching USB four no, no Thunderbolt. 64 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:58,420 So that is where we can bring it back. The iPad pros have support for Thunderbolt three I believe 65 00:04:58,420 --> 00:05:03,560 maybe Thunderbolt four. I don't think they have Thunderbolt four. I think they have Thunderbolt three over a USBC connector. 66 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,070 Guys this is getting really confusing. You might come up against a scenario where 67 00:05:08,070 --> 00:05:12,000 you're trying to transfer a large file or something or use a use an accessory. 68 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,150 And this is gonna have a slightly better bandwidth 69 00:05:15,150 --> 00:05:19,090 for you to transfer things over USBC or connect accessories or whatever. 70 00:05:19,090 --> 00:05:22,990 Everything's better than a lightning port. That's my song. 71 00:05:22,990 --> 00:05:26,467 This starts at the same price as the iPad air 4, 72 00:05:26,467 --> 00:05:33,120 $599 for the 64 gig version, you can bump it up to 256 gigs of storage 73 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:37,970 and then you'll pay $749. And then on both of those, you can add 5G if you want 74 00:05:37,970 --> 00:05:41,970 which will bump up the price to $749 and $899 I believe. 75 00:05:41,970 --> 00:05:48,590 So also got Wi-Fi six. So that's nice. It is a nice tablet from just looking at the specs. 76 00:05:48,590 --> 00:05:52,080 So like another one of the big differences 77 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,820 between the iPad air and the iPad pros is the refresh rate 78 00:05:55,820 --> 00:05:58,920 with this one, you're stuck with a 60 Hertz refresh rate. 79 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:04,650 Doesn't have the promotion like variable, you know changing depending on the content type of situation. 80 00:06:04,650 --> 00:06:10,040 Although it is a 10.9 inch liquid retina. So like, you know, it looks nice and sharp. 81 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,810 Let's bring up something. Let's bring up something pretty. Do we have pretty photos on here? 82 00:06:13,810 --> 00:06:17,248 Hey, Adam's pretty, pretty pretty. 83 00:06:17,248 --> 00:06:20,727 Who's that? What's that guy's name? Robin. 84 00:06:20,727 --> 00:06:24,820 That's a sharp photo who took this. It's got 60 Hertz compared 85 00:06:24,820 --> 00:06:28,480 to the one 20 Hertz and the iPad pro And it's got a few other kind 86 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:33,299 of deficiencies compared to that as well. This is not a me mini LED display. 87 00:06:33,299 --> 00:06:36,913 So it doesn't have the same brightness. What did you say? 88 00:06:36,913 --> 00:06:40,845 The max peak brightness was 500 nits? - [Jono] Well, it just says 500 nits 89 00:06:40,845 --> 00:06:44,671 - But that's probably sustained. - [Jono] Yeah - But I mean, I'm looking 90 00:06:44,671 --> 00:06:49,630 at a Mac Address video right now. It still looks pretty nice. The colors, how do I get rid of the UI? 91 00:06:49,630 --> 00:06:53,740 It won't go away. What's going on? - [Jono] I don't know. 92 00:06:55,130 --> 00:07:00,240 - Apparently this thing does have, you know, true tone with like basically every Mac product with a screen 93 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:06,750 has these days and the P3 color gamut. So I don't know how to gauge that. 94 00:07:06,750 --> 00:07:10,285 Why it turned itself down again? make yourself bright for me. 95 00:07:10,285 --> 00:07:17,834 And I wanna show you everything else that this iPad has to offer after this word, from our sponsor dbrand 96 00:07:17,834 --> 00:07:24,080 they didn't even send us this thing with a fancy skin on it. - [Jono] No cause have to put it on. 97 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,410 - I'm so bad at this, that's a leather skin baby. 98 00:07:28,410 --> 00:07:31,930 - [Andy] Dead cow - What'd you call me? What is this thing? 99 00:07:31,930 --> 00:07:35,690 Is that a cow? Is that the dead cow that made the leather - [Jono] That's Betsy. 100 00:07:36,780 --> 00:07:40,000 - Get yourself a skin made from the Carcas of old Betsy. 101 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,830 Our favorite cow that we killed. This is like leather. 102 00:07:43,830 --> 00:07:47,543 - [Jono] It is leather it's real. - This is real leather? - [Jono] Yeah. - Wow. 103 00:07:47,543 --> 00:07:48,730 - [Jono] How does it smell? 104 00:07:50,930 --> 00:07:55,504 - It's like old Betsy is in the room with me right now (background noise) 105 00:07:55,504 --> 00:07:56,587 - Don't mess. 106 00:07:58,755 --> 00:08:03,410 - Oh no it's not an absolutely perfect application, 107 00:08:03,410 --> 00:08:09,290 but listen this is what I said. I'm not good at this that goes on on the lens. 108 00:08:09,290 --> 00:08:13,700 That's kind of cool actually cause then it protects it from like hitting into things. 109 00:08:13,700 --> 00:08:17,960 That's beautiful dbrand - [Jono] How does that feel? - I love you. 110 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,170 - [Jono] Did you know that it actually changes colors as you use it? 111 00:08:21,170 --> 00:08:22,620 - You mean it's got a patina. 112 00:08:29,820 --> 00:08:36,446 You wanna put a dead cow on your devices, go check it out the link below dbrand.com/shortlinus 113 00:08:36,446 --> 00:08:41,840 (laughs) Okay. So now we know that Jonathan horse looks amazing 114 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,190 on the iPad pro or iPad air four display. 115 00:08:45,190 --> 00:08:49,263 It looks like an iPad Pro can you blame me for keeping continuing to confuse it? 116 00:08:49,263 --> 00:08:52,450 - [Jono] Nope - So, because this thing has the M1 in it 117 00:08:52,450 --> 00:08:56,500 it has actually doubled the RAM as the previous iPad air four as well. 118 00:08:56,500 --> 00:09:00,570 That one had four gigs compared to the, you know 119 00:09:00,570 --> 00:09:06,190 at that time, the iPad pro based on the A12 Z bionic had six gigs of RAM 120 00:09:06,190 --> 00:09:11,330 and the iPad air had four gigs of RAM but now all the iPads have so much RAM you can get. 121 00:09:11,330 --> 00:09:15,620 So this one comes with eight gigs of RAM cause of the M1 and the iPad pro with the M1 122 00:09:15,620 --> 00:09:18,770 you can get up to 16 gigs of RAM on an iPad. 123 00:09:18,770 --> 00:09:21,163 That's crazy is that exciting to you? 124 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,890 You're you're chewing. Don't try talk. And what's even more impressive. 125 00:09:25,890 --> 00:09:30,430 Is that with a more powerful chip it still has all day battery as apple likes to say 126 00:09:30,430 --> 00:09:36,640 but when you actually look at the specs they say it's 10 hours on Wi-Fi and nine hours on cellular. 127 00:09:39,010 --> 00:09:42,460 But we'll see, I won't see cause I'm gonna be done 128 00:09:42,460 --> 00:09:47,140 with this after this video, but someone will. The cool thing about apple deciding 129 00:09:47,140 --> 00:09:51,640 that it was basically gonna have the same physical design more or less there's thicker bezels on this compared 130 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:58,030 to the iPad pro is the fact that they are compatible or I think they are with like other accessories. 131 00:09:58,030 --> 00:10:03,030 So I'm okay with them not having giant innovations 132 00:10:03,340 --> 00:10:07,050 in physical design as long as they fit into the same accessories. 133 00:10:07,050 --> 00:10:11,290 This is the Logitech folio touch, which I took a look at when I reviewed 134 00:10:11,290 --> 00:10:15,710 the iPad air four, it's not working. 135 00:10:15,710 --> 00:10:18,810 Is it because of the dbrand skin? 136 00:10:18,810 --> 00:10:21,850 It might be cause of the dbrand skin it's thicker. 137 00:10:21,850 --> 00:10:26,176 So unfortunately if you get the fancy dbrand leather skin, 138 00:10:26,176 --> 00:10:31,410 it might not seat correctly. And in the log detect combo touch that has 139 00:10:31,410 --> 00:10:36,860 the detachable keyboard. We do have the the track pad working, 140 00:10:36,860 --> 00:10:42,342 the keyboards working but on the non detachable Logitech folio touch keyboard 141 00:10:42,342 --> 00:10:47,390 we weren't getting the, the seating, like the the connector wasn't seating properly. 142 00:10:47,390 --> 00:10:50,580 So that's too bad but what about the magic keyboard? 143 00:10:50,580 --> 00:10:55,461 This is a mess. What is going on? We don't have our apple accessories in order 144 00:10:55,461 --> 00:10:58,830 but you know who does? Mac Address Subscribe 145 00:10:58,830 --> 00:11:06,230 - [Andy] Yeah - I think it'll work. Oh, we don't have an 11 inch (laughs) 146 00:11:08,230 --> 00:11:12,600 I think we can make it work. I think if we just kind of, - Oh whoops. 147 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:17,950 - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Perfect. Well, if you get the 11 inch version 148 00:11:17,950 --> 00:11:21,580 of the magic keyboard, I'm pretty sure it'll fit. 149 00:11:21,580 --> 00:11:25,300 All right Well, I was going to look at the camera while it was sitting in a thing 150 00:11:25,300 --> 00:11:29,400 but I guess we're not gonna do that. Oh, is center stage on right now? 151 00:11:30,860 --> 00:11:34,220 Yeah. And moved. So that's the other thing that they're adding 152 00:11:34,220 --> 00:11:37,410 to the iPad air this time is the ultra wide 12 megapixel 153 00:11:37,410 --> 00:11:41,520 on facing camera that enables center stage. 154 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,990 So you can, don't worry, This is very stable. 155 00:11:44,990 --> 00:11:49,250 - I've gonna block you. - Oh, and over here and then you move over here 156 00:11:49,250 --> 00:11:51,763 and then, oh, it's trying it's trying. 157 00:11:54,149 --> 00:11:57,611 - [Jono] Oh it's focusing on me. - Yeah, it focuses on, 158 00:11:57,611 --> 00:12:01,600 you know, whatever idiot is in the room so. - [Jono] Aww what 159 00:12:02,561 --> 00:12:07,207 - And on the back we have the same 12 megapixel 160 00:12:07,207 --> 00:12:11,787 just regular wide camera and that'll let you shoot 4k video. 161 00:12:11,787 --> 00:12:17,670 So that's nice - [Jono] Up to 60 frames per second. - Do you want me to take a nice photo of this horizon thing? 162 00:12:17,670 --> 00:12:23,179 How much is this sink? - [Jono] I think 250 US - 250 US dollar that's wrong Jono. 163 00:12:23,179 --> 00:12:28,940 - [Jono] I didn't buy it. - That's not right. It doesn't even look like anything it's too busy. 164 00:12:28,940 --> 00:12:32,590 - So if you're the type of person to not be ashamed when you're out in public 165 00:12:32,590 --> 00:12:37,480 holding up a iPad, filming something Apparently the camera's still pretty good. 166 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,900 - [Jono] Tourists. - The coolest thing about this new iPad is the M1 as I said. 167 00:12:41,900 --> 00:12:45,310 So I think for most people looking for a tablet 168 00:12:45,310 --> 00:12:52,140 you still wanna look at the iPad. Ninth gen, just regular iPad, cause that starts at $329 169 00:12:52,140 --> 00:12:57,140 and it's got A14? A13 bionic, which isn't an M1 170 00:12:57,307 --> 00:13:04,700 but it's still pretty good for like tablet stuff. But I feel like the iPad air has now established this kind 171 00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:08,620 of like middle ground where maybe you're not like a full professional and you need like 172 00:13:08,620 --> 00:13:13,583 an iPad for your for your work all the time. But maybe you're like an artist and you have a computer 173 00:13:13,583 --> 00:13:18,440 you have other things and you wanna have a tablet that is reasonably powerful 174 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:23,610 that you can like use procreate on or stuff. You know, that's a nice niche to be in. 175 00:13:23,610 --> 00:13:27,093 I can't really like test the performance per say cause that's for the full review. 176 00:13:27,093 --> 00:13:31,923 We're not doing a full review. Mac Address is, one more thing though, the speakers 177 00:13:31,923 --> 00:13:37,569 - You're not a crab don't talk to me. (instrumental music) 178 00:13:41,630 --> 00:13:45,223 - That's a tablet if I didn't know this was a tablet, man was like over there. 179 00:13:48,300 --> 00:13:53,610 No, it still sounds like a tablet. But as far as mobile device speakers go pretty good. 180 00:13:53,610 --> 00:13:56,820 There's a good amount of mids and base on that thing. - [Jono] You'd watch a movie on that thing 181 00:13:56,820 --> 00:14:02,390 - No, I would still use headphones. I have no problem watching, like using this as my visuals. 182 00:14:02,390 --> 00:14:05,550 But, but sound is like more important than visuals to me. 183 00:14:05,550 --> 00:14:09,100 And it's also more important to me that you watch to the end of this video. 184 00:14:09,100 --> 00:14:14,695 Thank you so much, dear viewer, Hey subscribe to ShortCircuit for more videos like this. 185 00:14:14,695 --> 00:14:18,177 And if you wanna to buy this tablet, use the links below. 186 00:14:18,177 --> 00:14:20,533 Those are the best ones I tried the other ones.
