I'm jumping on the Best Buy deal to get a 64GB Air 2 myself. Does Best Buy give a poo poo if you trade in an iPad with an engraving? I can get $100 from them or so for my 16GB third gen iPad, and honestly I don't think anyone is going to pay more than that on Craigslist since I was stupid and got my name engraved on it.

I got the full value of the estimate their site gave me, so don't sweat it if you got an engraving.

So in Safari I occasionally have pages just replaced by a different website that's clearly shilling poo poo. It tends to happen a few moments after going to the original page, only to be have the bullshit load up and it doesn't even offer the option to go back. This happens on a lot of pages, so I assume it's something more than just horrible ads. Searching is kinda difficult because I get a lot of hits for ad-free browser apps or "Viruses? iPads don't get viruses." which doesn't help.

Is there any concrete stuff on new iPads in March or just rumors?

I don't see why they couldn't just do an iPad presentation in mid/late October like they've done in the past. By the point all the iPhone buzz will have long died down.

I'll probably get something before then. Old iPad is gone and while March is fine, I think October is just too long of a wait for me.

I got the 12.9, but will likely return it for a 9.7 Pro. It's just real unwieldy to use, although I adore it for watching media. Going to play with this weekend and see if I can acclimate first.

Getting an iPad this weekend, and debating between the regular and Pro 10.5. I watch a lot of video on my tablets, so the better screen on the pro is tempting, in addition to the better internals since I don't have a laptop.

I am baffled as to why Apple stopped making their tablet cases but still make things like $100+ sleeves  As someone who loved the no-frills silicone case on their iPad Air, what's an affordable third-party replacement?

Ultimate Mango posted:The top selling ones on Amazon, at least for my 10.5 are a perfect match for the Smart Keyboard color wise and are a nice material. They have one with a built in pencil holder and some with a built in top cover as well. Cheap too, like 15-18 bucks. May go that route.

buglord posted:first world problem but ever since I got my Pro 9.7, my rMBP has been getting very little use. I just wish window management/splitscreen management wasnt such complete garbage on iOS (not that multitasking is much better on macOS). That said, I'm surprised how vintage it feels to work on a laptop after using an ipad for so long.

Anyone have problems with the digital keyboard lately? Sometimes it just straight up ignores when I tap a key, and I have to press it 2-3 times to register. My iPad is only a few months old, so kind of annoying for it to just start happening.

If you’re patient, wait to see if the new Pros are out. Prices on used may be better.

I mean, USB-C isn’t an entirely new thing to Apple because Macbooks. Also, we’d likely get some kind lightning to C adaptor in the box. For now, anyways.

I can’t imagine they’d switch to usb-c when they have so many accessories tied up in lightning. It’s not a huge jump for phones, at any rate.

The old pencils are lightning to charge and the new pros have no such ports. Granted, they could have made it work via dongle.

The Air feels like what you’d expect from a new iPad prior 2017. The 5th and 6th gens are fine, but very much seem like budget iPads given the iterative designs and some corner cutting to keep costs down. So now you have the budget iPad, small iPad, regular iPad, and luxury iPad. The naming scheme is awful though, not helped by reusing names. Should have refreshed the 6th gen model and called it the iPad Lite or R, and just call the new Air “iPad”.

iPad updates are super erratic with no real pattern the last few generations. If you can wait for 6-7 months for a potential 2019 refresh of the pros then do it.

Yeah, the phones and watches roll out every September like clockwork, but everything else is unreliable. The 2017 Pro came out in June, wheres 2018 was in November. Not to mention weird one-offs like the 9.7” Pro.

Krispy Wafer posted:Weren't iPhone screens only 4 inches when the Mini first came out? They only finally got a phablet with the iPhone 6+ so the Mini was a stopgap until Apple got bigger iPhones. Also Amazon was cleaning everyone's clock for tablets under $300 with their Fires. They suck for anything outside light gaming and media consumption. Even an ancient iPad 2 feels better to surf on than than the mutant fork of Android they have on those things.

The 6th Gen got bumped to the 10 as a annual iteration. It is so confusing that the 7 is the same and just...a half-inch bigger and can use the overpriced keyboard case? It’s just weird.

iOS is tightly controlled, whereas Android is only going to get that kind of treatment on a Pixel. Everything else has bloatware or some bullshit the phone maker wants to foist on you (Hi, Bixby). Now for some things RAM is kind of non-negotiable, like games or media editing, but for most everyday use you do not need as much RAM in your phone as your PC. It’s similar to how people balked at the size of the 2018 phone’s batteries, but the XS Max and XR both beat the Note 9 (with and without the resolution bump on the latter). Which is probably why Apple doesn’t give that info out, since battery size isn’t as important as the actual power demands of the components.
