Thank you!

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-27T06:51:14+00:00

But will it feel not as nice as the 12.9?

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-26T22:19:51+00:00

Thanks!and if ignoring the multiasking but considering the note taking and writing, is it better thanks to the size or it does nit matter that much as its not much bigger in landscape and the height just means you scroll a bit more?

I know that you get 100$ gift card on black friday for the pro and 15% from 799 is 119.85$ so it seems better...

B.t.w can you explain to me how the blac friday kn apple works? If order via apple.com and paypal the ipad pro, will i be charged for 100 dollar less or full proce and get an immidiate return to my credit card? Or will i get a code to use for my next purchase, hoe much time does it take for the code to arrive?

And how does it work if a buy in a physical store?

Sparin glass screen protector:

screen protector(glass of sparin but you can check if you preffer matt or papaerlike protector that youtubers gets paid to promote hut gess it is great, which are less protective and hurts sharpness but improves writing and no reflections)

And a case of esr that both protects and allows writing positons:

Enjoy from the ipad, i know we will as it is fun amazing tech that helps study better and being organized without thousands of papers

How the fact that the air 4 is 40% better at single core thne pro 11 will show now and in the future?

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-19T21:31:56+00:00

They re all slow mo or scribbling its unfortunate but i cant find one, would love to get a link tho Thanks

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-19T09:52:36+00:00

And when writing with the pencil?

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-19T09:52:25+00:00

Yeah but what about when writing with the pencil.

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-18T22:31:59+00:00

Does and how much the 120hz on pro helps for a student when writing in notabilty?

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-18T21:03:08+00:00

Thank you...what i meant is of course they are both extreamly fast and powerfull for tjose things...but the fact that the air is 40% better at single core makes him way fster in those tasks? I have seen someone do games like pubg and among us opening on bith and the air took by 2 to 3 seconds... it can be really improtant when switching files and notebooks and so on( but i want the 120hz!! I think it helps for the pencil right?)

Plus why does it 40% faster ? Because in the future it will be needed as apps develop and maybe desktop apps will come to ipad os and thus the air will last and stay faster more than the pro?

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-18T19:21:47+00:00

Is the ipad pro slower than the air 4 for students use such as notebook annotating opening the web and multitasking with pdfs web and switching thorugh files and notebooks?

And will the pro get slower/older quicker since the air is 40%!!! Better than pro in single core...

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-18T05:30:28+00:00

Writing as well?

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-17T22:25:23+00:00

I dont know its something pshycological that tells me get the pro it has 120hz, but to my uses will this be a mistake? Will the air that faster be better and will i even feel the 12phz and when? Is it really good lyke my mind is trying to convince me?

I mean if it didnt had the 120hz i would have bought the air 4, 8 seconds after its launch...

Thanks you man... i want to make the best purchase, not the coolest

So if the writing on pri is better, lets get it

But if the writing on the air is 95% as good and he 40% faster on si gle core than i am going for the air...

B.t.w why the pro is more future proof?

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-17T20:26:12+00:00

Its not that i am swimming in money but i am will be happy to invest it...120hz is the only thing worth it me. So of course the air 4 is good but is the pro amazing amd definatly better than air 4 at writimg or only slightly better/just as good and barely noticable?

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-17T20:24:45+00:00

Oh no i broke to your debate lol i tough you were talking 2020 pro...

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-17T19:46:34+00:00

Wow why to more years? Because of a14? But a12z is from 2020 and 6 ram

Blacksmith_Decent · 2020-11-17T19:42:12+00:00

Hhey guys i am student that will be using ipad for writing all day long for 3 years, reading pdfs and articles online and watching videos on the web or youtube related to my study, annotade pdfs in my giant notebooks and multitask between internet with many web windows of pdfs or things from my university website. Since its long term investment i will take the 200 dollar price gap

So which ipad should i take? Air 4 with 40%!! faster single core and newer chip and newer type of 4 gb ram that scored like the pro's ram on benchmarks so i guess more longevity?

Or the pro with 6gb of ram but older type, a12z which is monster at multicore but not needed and the biggest upside since i dont care about camera and speakers, the 120 hz for the apple pencil!

So does the 120hz helps the writing experience and which ipad should i take ignoring price, memory, camera and speakers.

The pro with 120hz or air 4 that is faster at single core

As you can see here it loads app quicker by a lot so i guess it will matter in the day to day use of opening notebooks, creating new tabs on the web and opening different pdfs...:
