WEBVTT

00:00:00.230 --> 00:00:04.293
- Oh, my sweet, sweet iPads. I've missed you.

00:00:04.293 --> 00:00:07.388
(laughs) - [Jono] Is it a computer yet?

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

00:00:32.670 --> 00:00:35.960
As much as we challenge apple as much as we get up in their face.

00:00:35.960 --> 00:00:39.504
I actually like what they've done. - [Andy] Your check is too loud.

00:00:39.504 --> 00:00:43.320
- Ah, the I iPad air. I was actually excited to see this

00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:46.370
because I like what apple has been doing with their iPads.

00:00:46.370 --> 00:00:49.616
They kind of like took it from being this fun product for

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

00:00:55.240 --> 00:01:00.070
you know, computers more or less iPad OS is a robust operating system

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

00:01:04.535 --> 00:01:11.755
what it can do for the format. Ah, didn't see that coming, iPad air

00:01:11.910 --> 00:01:17.703
- [Jono] Mac dress opened it up before us so... - What? Mac Address already UN boxed this

00:01:17.703 --> 00:01:21.125
- [Andy] Describe to Mac Address. - Shut up Andy

00:01:21.125 --> 00:01:23.208
(laughs)

00:01:25.223 --> 00:01:29.720
what it's ripping? What? - [Jono] Yeah Horst ripped it...

00:01:29.720 --> 00:01:32.850
- This is apple is just not the same as the one it was okay,

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

00:01:36.872 --> 00:01:40.590
this is like the same chassis more

00:01:40.590 --> 00:01:45.110
or less as the iPad air fourth gen. Although I've seen some complaints

00:01:45.110 --> 00:01:50.480
from some people about build quality maybe being slightly less impressive on this one.

00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:54.130
Like they say that there's a thinner enclosure but like I don't feel,

00:01:54.130 --> 00:01:57.650
oh maybe I feel a little something but that just might be the emotions.

00:01:57.650 --> 00:02:01.499
Very, very happy right now it feels okay so I don't know that's probably

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.

00:02:07.907 --> 00:02:11.649
- [Jono] Aaaw, it's white lame. - You're the worst. Who cares about stickers?

00:02:11.649 --> 00:02:15.270
Like people are like, Ooh, I wonder what stickers are in the iPad air pro box.

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.

00:02:22.591 --> 00:02:26.700
iPhones do not be until they get their act together.

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

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

00:02:35.620 --> 00:02:40.620
what I mean is it's got these four speaker grills again

00:02:41.830 --> 00:02:46.950
but there's only two actual working speakers from what I understand because they've adapted

00:02:46.950 --> 00:02:50.339
the iPad pro overall chassis design that they

00:02:50.339 --> 00:02:54.370
I think first introduced in 2018 and in 2020

00:02:54.370 --> 00:02:59.840
when they updated the iPad air, they gave it that square bezel design

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

00:03:05.320 --> 00:03:09.344
that you can use the phone but not actually, subscribe to Mac Address

00:03:09.344 --> 00:03:14.020
- [Jono] Again. - [Andy] Yes, please. - The iPad pro has face ID and the iPad air

00:03:14.020 --> 00:03:17.260
in lieu of that they used the same design overall

00:03:17.260 --> 00:03:21.690
but they took away the face and put in the touch ID, enabled power button,

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

00:03:26.510 --> 00:03:31.357
USBC port which this time is apparently two times faster

00:03:31.357 --> 00:03:36.130
than the one in the iPad air. And here's where things get really (beep) up.

00:03:36.130 --> 00:03:40.130
Let me tell you (laughs) you guys know

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.

00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:49.780
The iPad air in 2020 supported five gigabits transfer speed.

00:03:49.780 --> 00:03:54.170
Okay. But at that time that was USB 3.1 gen one

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.

00:04:00.523 --> 00:04:05.523
But what apple is calling it is USB 3.1 gen two

00:04:05.870 --> 00:04:09.610
which is technically correct but that's not what USB is calling it anymore.

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.

00:04:16.610 --> 00:04:20.400
I better 2020 head USB 3.2 gen one by one

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.

00:04:24.710 --> 00:04:29.710
And now apple is saying this one has USB 3.1 gen two

00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:35.383
which is actually supposed to be called USB 3.2 gen two by one.

00:04:37.390 --> 00:04:40.633
Okay. But if apple was gonna put in a 20 gigabit port

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

00:04:45.950 --> 00:04:51.800
- [Andy] What like USB four? - I'm not even touching USB four no, no Thunderbolt.

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

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.

00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:08.070
Guys this is getting really confusing. You might come up against a scenario where

00:05:08.070 --> 00:05:12.000
you're trying to transfer a large file or something or use a use an accessory.

00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:15.150
And this is gonna have a slightly better bandwidth

00:05:15.150 --> 00:05:19.090
for you to transfer things over USBC or connect accessories or whatever.

00:05:19.090 --> 00:05:22.990
Everything's better than a lightning port. That's my song.

00:05:22.990 --> 00:05:26.467
This starts at the same price as the iPad air 4,

00:05:26.467 --> 00:05:33.120
$599 for the 64 gig version, you can bump it up to 256 gigs of storage

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

00:05:37.970 --> 00:05:41.970
which will bump up the price to $749 and $899 I believe.

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.

00:05:48.590 --> 00:05:52.080
So like another one of the big differences

00:05:52.080 --> 00:05:55.820
between the iPad air and the iPad pros is the refresh rate

00:05:55.820 --> 00:05:58.920
with this one, you're stuck with a 60 Hertz refresh rate.

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.

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.

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?

00:06:13.810 --> 00:06:17.248
Hey, Adam's pretty, pretty pretty.

00:06:17.248 --> 00:06:20.727
Who's that? What's that guy's name? Robin.

00:06:20.727 --> 00:06:24.820
That's a sharp photo who took this. It's got 60 Hertz compared

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

00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:33.299
of deficiencies compared to that as well. This is not a me mini LED display.

00:06:33.299 --> 00:06:36.913
So it doesn't have the same brightness. What did you say?

00:06:36.913 --> 00:06:40.845
The max peak brightness was 500 nits? - [Jono] Well, it just says 500 nits

00:06:40.845 --> 00:06:44.671
- But that's probably sustained. - [Jono] Yeah - But I mean, I'm looking

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?

00:06:49.630 --> 00:06:53.740
It won't go away. What's going on? - [Jono] I don't know.

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

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.

00:07:06.750 --> 00:07:10.285
Why it turned itself down again? make yourself bright for me.

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

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.

00:07:24.080 --> 00:07:28.410
- I'm so bad at this, that's a leather skin baby.

00:07:28.410 --> 00:07:31.930
- [Andy] Dead cow - What'd you call me? What is this thing?

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.

00:07:36.780 --> 00:07:40.000
- Get yourself a skin made from the Carcas of old Betsy.

00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:43.830
Our favorite cow that we killed. This is like leather.

00:07:43.830 --> 00:07:47.543
- [Jono] It is leather it's real. - This is real leather? - [Jono] Yeah. - Wow.

00:07:47.543 --> 00:07:48.730
- [Jono] How does it smell?

00:07:50.930 --> 00:07:55.504
- It's like old Betsy is in the room with me right now (background noise)

00:07:55.504 --> 00:07:56.587
- Don't mess.

00:07:58.755 --> 00:08:03.410
- Oh no it's not an absolutely perfect application,

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.

00:08:09.290 --> 00:08:13.700
That's kind of cool actually cause then it protects it from like hitting into things.

00:08:13.700 --> 00:08:17.960
That's beautiful dbrand - [Jono] How does that feel? - I love you.

00:08:17.960 --> 00:08:21.170
- [Jono] Did you know that it actually changes colors as you use it?

00:08:21.170 --> 00:08:22.620
- You mean it's got a patina.

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

00:08:36.446 --> 00:08:41.840
(laughs) Okay. So now we know that Jonathan horse looks amazing

00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:45.190
on the iPad pro or iPad air four display.

00:08:45.190 --> 00:08:49.263
It looks like an iPad Pro can you blame me for keeping continuing to confuse it?

00:08:49.263 --> 00:08:52.450
- [Jono] Nope - So, because this thing has the M1 in it

00:08:52.450 --> 00:08:56.500
it has actually doubled the RAM as the previous iPad air four as well.

00:08:56.500 --> 00:09:00.570
That one had four gigs compared to the, you know

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

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.

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

00:09:15.620 --> 00:09:18.770
you can get up to 16 gigs of RAM on an iPad.

00:09:18.770 --> 00:09:21.163
That's crazy is that exciting to you?

00:09:22.520 --> 00:09:25.890
You're you're chewing. Don't try talk. And what's even more impressive.

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

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.

00:09:39.010 --> 00:09:42.460
But we'll see, I won't see cause I'm gonna be done

00:09:42.460 --> 00:09:47.140
with this after this video, but someone will. The cool thing about apple deciding

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

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.

00:09:58.030 --> 00:10:03.030
So I'm okay with them not having giant innovations

00:10:03.340 --> 00:10:07.050
in physical design as long as they fit into the same accessories.

00:10:07.050 --> 00:10:11.290
This is the Logitech folio touch, which I took a look at when I reviewed

00:10:11.290 --> 00:10:15.710
the iPad air four, it's not working.

00:10:15.710 --> 00:10:18.810
Is it because of the dbrand skin?

00:10:18.810 --> 00:10:21.850
It might be cause of the dbrand skin it's thicker.

00:10:21.850 --> 00:10:26.176
So unfortunately if you get the fancy dbrand leather skin,

00:10:26.176 --> 00:10:31.410
it might not seat correctly. And in the log detect combo touch that has

00:10:31.410 --> 00:10:36.860
the detachable keyboard. We do have the the track pad working,

00:10:36.860 --> 00:10:42.342
the keyboards working but on the non detachable Logitech folio touch keyboard

00:10:42.342 --> 00:10:47.390
we weren't getting the, the seating, like the the connector wasn't seating properly.

00:10:47.390 --> 00:10:50.580
So that's too bad but what about the magic keyboard?

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

00:10:55.461 --> 00:10:58.830
but you know who does? Mac Address Subscribe

00:10:58.830 --> 00:11:06.230
- [Andy] Yeah - I think it'll work. Oh, we don't have an 11 inch (laughs)

00:11:08.230 --> 00:11:12.600
I think we can make it work. I think if we just kind of, - Oh whoops.

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

00:11:17.950 --> 00:11:21.580
of the magic keyboard, I'm pretty sure it'll fit.

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

00:11:25.300 --> 00:11:29.400
but I guess we're not gonna do that. Oh, is center stage on right now?

00:11:30.860 --> 00:11:34.220
Yeah. And moved. So that's the other thing that they're adding

00:11:34.220 --> 00:11:37.410
to the iPad air this time is the ultra wide 12 megapixel

00:11:37.410 --> 00:11:41.520
on facing camera that enables center stage.

00:11:41.520 --> 00:11:44.990
So you can, don't worry, This is very stable.

00:11:44.990 --> 00:11:49.250
- I've gonna block you. - Oh, and over here and then you move over here

00:11:49.250 --> 00:11:51.763
and then, oh, it's trying it's trying.

00:11:54.149 --> 00:11:57.611
- [Jono] Oh it's focusing on me. - Yeah, it focuses on,

00:11:57.611 --> 00:12:01.600
you know, whatever idiot is in the room so. - [Jono] Aww what

00:12:02.561 --> 00:12:07.207
- And on the back we have the same 12 megapixel

00:12:07.207 --> 00:12:11.787
just regular wide camera and that'll let you shoot 4k video.

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?

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.

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.

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

00:12:32.590 --> 00:12:37.480
holding up a iPad, filming something Apparently the camera's still pretty good.

00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:41.900
- [Jono] Tourists. - The coolest thing about this new iPad is the M1 as I said.

00:12:41.900 --> 00:12:45.310
So I think for most people looking for a tablet

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

00:12:52.140 --> 00:12:57.140
and it's got A14? A13 bionic, which isn't an M1

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

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

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

00:13:13.583 --> 00:13:18.440
you have other things and you wanna have a tablet that is reasonably powerful

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.

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.

00:13:27.093 --> 00:13:31.923
We're not doing a full review. Mac Address is, one more thing though, the speakers

00:13:31.923 --> 00:13:37.569
- You're not a crab don't talk to me. (instrumental music)

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.

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.

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

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.

00:14:02.390 --> 00:14:05.550
But, but sound is like more important than visuals to me.

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.

00:14:09.100 --> 00:14:14.695
