Apple iPad Users Thread
Apple has made the choices more difficult with the three different model lines (of the full-sized iPad, not even counting the Mini). Depending on what they do with the upcoming new releases, I'm leaning towards iPad Air. The Pro is a premium price for features I'm not sure I need, and the base model iPad isn't a Silicon processor (at least not current models). I'd at least want to go with the Silicon chip for compatibility and future-proofing, and I'll also want compatibility with the Magic Keyboard (which the base model iPad doesn't offer).

CapCut is owned by the TikTok people, so I am hesitant, but it has some nice features for what it is.
Yeah I get the hesitation the stuff I edit together is fairly low stakes and I’m putting it out for the world to see anyway so I don’t care to much about any potential data issues with it.
But, if I was doing stuff for a business that I cared more about the privacy of I would go a different route.
Upgraded to iPadOS 17.1.1 a few days ago and just realized Apple Health data can now be synched to and viewed/edited upon the iPad via iCloud. Yay! \o/
I don't think I could do it without having a physical keyboard.
I've tried, but always wind up back at my MacBook Air.

My only question marks are THP website stuff, and I tried it this morning and it was okay
I think this is the first negative comment I've ever seen about a Kindle e-reader.
I use the Kindle app on my iPad Air and it works well--even in bright sunlight, but, my wife has a 13 in. iPad Pro. I don't think that heavy tablet (made even heavier by the folio cover she chose) will work well for her for an e-book reader, so I bought her a higher-end Kindle, with adjustable back-lighting, for Christmas.

I don't think I've already said this...if I have, oh well.
This is the case I use on mine, it's a logitech combo touch. Love the different angles I can use it with that aren't an option with the Apple magic keboard case. Also like that I can just take the keyboard right off for times I'm just looking to watch something or use as the ipad was originally intended.

I have my PC for daily driver, but haven't owned a laptop in quite some time.
The keyboard I have for my iPad is pretty ridiculous, but it definitely does the job - which is mostly THPing, and very seldom web searching.

track pad is pretty good. It's got more real estate than the magic keyboard case. I also like that the keyboard has a top row of function keys. I didn't think I'd use them, but they've definitely came in handy.
It’s a kindle fire.
Which keyboard is it?
Using iPad now, I’m on a laptop all day, I like the different interface when not working. I write on a MacBook, when just consuming I like the iPad.
Just found it on Amazon, sold by Amazon as a “guaranteed refurbished” for $99. Hmm.

does that one have the fully wrapped keyboard keys?
Using the IPad to connect to desktop remotely. With IPhone hotspot can be in the office anywhere. Trying to decide if I want to be “that guy” on the golf course!!
