What now differentiates between iPad Pro 2020 ($800) and iPad Air 2020 ($600)? Surely not the sensor.
Pro-motion 120hz refresh (if you use Apple Pencil this is important), 4 speakers vs 2, wide angle lens camera, faceid (so things like Animoji’s are supported), 600 vs 500 nits brightness, Pro has 6gb ram - unsure on air but I feel it is likely less. A12z might be faster than A14 still as it’s 8 vs 6 cores - but not sure.
11” pro w/ 256gb in the education store is only $150 more than new Air. Not sure who would want the Air for that difference
I almost regret getting the iPad Pro recently...
When LCD TVs first came out I thought people were being overly dramatic with the whole motion blur thing - until I went looking for it. And then I saw it - every time a scene was still, it was in perfect clarity - the the camera panned and everything went fuzzy. Once I saw that effect I couldn't unsee it. 120Hz scrolling is the same for me too.
Ignorance is indeed bliss :)
Scrolling is smoother on the latter, but it wasn't appreciable enough that the iPad Air 2 looked bad in comparison. I could continue using the Air 2 without any FOMO.
Maybe it makes more of a difference for artists? (Pencil users)
If you are using a pencil I understand the difference is dramatic. Excellent thoughts from Serenity Caldwell who loves to draw: https://www.imore.com/promotion
