For our third episode of One Charge Challenge, we’re seeing what Apple’s newest iPad Pro can do on a single battery charge. This 12.9-inch model has a Liquid Retina XDR Display and the new M1 chip. With these upgrades, can it become my go-to tool for making things?

@Nic Henry lol but then that means it wasn’t one charge right ?

@Kyle Reddy every challenge/task that I walk through is real time and on one charge. But while I’m shooting the challenges I don’t have time to get “beauty shots” or supplemental broll for the transitions w/ music etc. But all the performance and reaction stuff is really one charge I promise!

@Nic Henry awesome thanks bro much appreciated, not trying to be difficult I’m legit struggling to decide between waiting for tab s8 ultra or ipad pro 12.9 for business use I work about 12-14 hours a day I’d say I’ll be clos enough wall outlet for atleast 3 to 4 hours out of that if I’m lucky I don’t video do editing every day but I will fully use it replace my laptop and actually phone most of the time I use voice with Bluetooth earphones for meetings excel most of my apps are web apps anyway so just trying to figure out if the battery would last for me.

My 11” M1, set to 26% brightness auto, gets 16-18 hours of battery , I’m charging it every two days, then my old 10.5” which I was charging twice a day.( that’s with wi-if headphones) also the apple pen uses 0.3% per hour 1% every 3 hours approximately)

Got my new iPad Pro. And was in bed watching a movie and noticed the horrible blooming everyone is talking about. Do i exchange it? Or will all new iPad suffer this? Not sure if it’s a defect that could be resolved by switching it out? Apple tells me it’s not an issue but there’s a huge block of light behind a small white line. Very annoying.

Would like to see you record a song with the Focusrite and that adapter you were missing, I have a Motu and an iPad Pro but haven’t used them together yet. What song were you playing, sounded great, like Modest Mouse.

12:29 there seems to be this tendency for reviewers, you-tubers, … to focus a little too much on what an apple product can’t do (what it is not) instead of what it is. it is a tablet computer, why not just focus on that, instead of the laptop and desktop duties it can’t perform.
how many times do people review a model 3 and focus on the fact that it can’t do what a mack truck or an f-150 can do?

Only buy if first ipad m1, 2018 is great especially if over 256BG future proof. Anything under 128GB should be a crime in 2021.

Ever heard of “The iPad Channel”? where all the videos were done only on an iPad? Not an iPad Pro, just a regular iPad. Idea is using the iPad to its full potential, using it as the only computer. The interesting part is, the iPad is actually a Mac in a tablet form factor.

Lmao… If you think it’s a Mac in a tablet form, you need a reality check

It feels pretty tough to draw the line between things that can be done by updated apps and those by a bolstered device.

Thanks for this review. I wish they made the macs touch screen. Then the ipads woukd die off. Lol But they won’t. I would pay bug money for a mac if they ever did. Have it for 12 years lol

I don’t think iPads would die off with that. Lots of people use the iPad for note taking.

iPad don’t let you create things, they give you the illusion that you are creative. While you can only do the things they let you to
