    I asked my boyfriend if he wanted to try something new in bed. He suggested sleeping with the lights off. Bold move, babe, but I was thinking more along the lines of a new position🍒

    Just put in my order for the $349 model to update my five-six year old iPad. Yea for the price staying low.

    Can’t believe they updated the air after just 1 year.

    the storage is finally adequate but the A16 is binned. at least the bluetooth is slightly better. the ipad air is literally the chip only and nothing else whatsoever

    The “Air” being bigger than the Pro is insane. lol. I wish Apple would simplify their iPad and iPhone lineup. iPad Mini, iPad, and iPad Pro is all we really need.

    Buy a Galaxy tab…lol

    What’s really underwhelming is that it still doesn’t have ProMotion display, iPad Air has been stuck with that 60hz display since forever. The M3 processor is overkill and I’m typing this comment on my iPad Pro 10.5 which still feels fast after many years of use and abuse. The real deal is to buy older iPad Pro models.

      Wait Domo me asking about you using an iPad Pro 10.5 inch is still functions correctly like what kind of abuse are we talking about?

    • @david_bopit_music11

      March 4, 2025 at 8:29 pm

      I guess for me I did multiple abuse to this iPad seventh generation since I got it around October 27, 2020when I shipped it with iPadOS 14.1 but still still functions correctly I just have an updated to iPadOS 18 yet because I don’t know how that’s gonna go is because it’s still functioning correctly and iPadOS 17

    Why is Face ID available on all iPhones since the X, but only available on the iPad Pro? 🤨

  11. @david_bopit_music11

    March 4, 2025 at 8:27 pm

    Is the iPad, 11th generation call that always have been called iPad, a16
