Craptacular! posted:As I've been really mad at Apple recently so a lot of this hits me as "air wanking motion" stuff but is 64GB really the ONLY storage option on the base iPad? They spent development cycles automatically offloading "unused" apps rather than just putting a few bucks more flash.

DoomTrainPhD posted:tbf, when you sell a billion iPads, a few bucks extra per iPad is huge. I knowwwww. And really, I wonder what the actual percent utilized of the storage is for most iPads. I bet it's under 50% for the majority.

Honestly, I have a big fat iPad Pro, and it's great. But I kinda want a mini to be its little buddy for when it's just too obnoxiously huge. If this thing isn't a giant ripoff, might be worth it.

Imagine walking around an urban hellscape or riding an escalator with your iPad out and not having it stolen or getting your rear end kicked on principle.

Al-Saqr posted:I dont get why they're so insistent on the cameras on ipads being a thing, I mean yeah it's cool but I would much rather they just make their ipads support logic or final cut or something more useful. I mean hell introducing 'Xbox game pass for iPad' would be huge. Yes. But kids do use them a lot when schools issue them.

Every single thing Apple does now is so homogenized. Just random buzzwords plugged into an algorithm. Hire some actual directors to make little three minute movies introducing your new poo poo. You get David Lynch to show me why I need an iPad mini, you can have my $500.

Did they talk about how much more efficient the ML is at scanning through your phone for contraband or other verboten material for notificaiton of the authorities of your country? no I am not defending CSAM, but the tech has broad and terrible implications
