Apple’s new iPad Pro for 2020 has been out for over a month. I have been using the 12.9 iPad Pro on iOS 13.4.1every day since it came out and I share my experience with the iPad Pro 12.9 and help you decide if you should buy one or upgrade from your previous 2018 iPad Pro. In this video I go over iPad Pro battery life, overall usage, specs, cameras and more. #ipadpro #ios13 #Apple 11-inch iPad Pro Smart Keyboard on Amazon - https://amzn.to/3cLsXcZ 12.9-inch iPad Pro Smart Keyboard on Amazon - https://amzn.to/3cLsXcZ Time Codes 00:00 - Introduction 00:35 - Usability 00:47 - Specs 01:12 - Performance 01:48 - Battery life 02:22 - Durability 02:35 - Magic Keyboard 02:55 - Cameras 03:40 - LiDAR sensor 04:15 - Should you upgrade to 2020 iPad Pro? 05:16 - Should you buy iPad Pro? 06:25 - Conclusion 07:01 - End ————————————————————————— Check AirPods Pro Prices - https://amzn.to/38hE8rE Check AirPods 2 Prices - https://amzn.to/2TwhKGw Watch Band I use on Amazon - https://amzn.to/2Kpb7zX Wireless Charger I use for AirPods and iPhone - https://amzn.to/30s7K2F ————————————————————————— iOS 13.4 (All Videos) playlist - /playlist/PLoNw8g0EEF7OBPOPaE8Vv6XjVbTtApsQU ------------------------------------------------------------------ 📷🎥 CAMERAS: Sony FX9 - https://bhpho.to/35Ox9GB Sigma Lens - https://bhpho.to/2WL4m1n Memory Card - https://bhpho.to/3fETHxR Sony A6600 - https://bhpho.to/2WROtq7 Sony Lens - https://bhpho.to/3fKkGYU Memory Card: https://amzn.to/2JudBdT 🎤 Microphone Heil PR40 - https://amzn.to/2JYatZl Focusrite 2i2 - https://amzn.to/2RQRuT9 ------------------------------------------------------------------ iPad Pro Magic Keyboard Review - The Best Experience for iPad - /watch/EKJyb6jaCPday iPhone SE 2020 Review (Recorded with iPhone SE) - /watch/k0ncpxK4iLf4c iPhone XR vs iPhone SE (2020) - Which Should You Choose? - /watch/IzF6K2zK0VTK6 Which iPad Should You Choose in 2020? - /watch/UxnQk2aF8LQFQ iPad Pro Magic Keyboard - /watch/ErK5Gm-8nig85 iPhone 11 - 6 Months Later - /watch/cXdOsSmWOinWO Logitech Trackpad and Keyboard for iPad - Unboxing and Review - /watch/cbkCeP_0kYn0C 2020 iPad Pro - Unboxing, Setup and First Look - /watch/s2=t&QMte0m9j0n5jt 2019 iPad (7th Gen) - Unboxing, Comparison and First Look - /watch/oVIOUjZusRXuO Logitech TrackPad and Keyboard for iPad - Unboxing and Review - /watch/cbkCeP_0kYn0C iOS 13.4.1 is Out! - What’s New? - /watch/MpQK2BFGSTHGK 2020 MacBook Air - Unboxing, Setup and First Look - /watch/ArloF1cKpW7Ko How to Clean and Disinfect iPhone properly - /watch/0OM4uTXbu7qb4 iOS 14 - Supported Devices, Refinement and Features - /watch/MJRKo9c5h1f5K Which iPhone Should You Choose in 2020? - /watch/YkcBqBvX5vXXB iPhone 11 - Full Review - /watch/o1jWHMhG0BqGW iPhone 11 Pro Max Review - the Good and The Bad - (4K60P) - /watch/oUYqIXEZSH1Zq 5 AirPod Tips and Features You Might Not Know /watch/A20geMWDazGDg ——————————————————— Support ZOLLOTECH on Amazon: http://amzn.to/2jxmglN Outro Music: “Halos” by Yung Logos - Available in the YouTube Create Audio Library --------------------------------------------------- Wallpaper for iPhone - https://bit.ly/2WvKbWf Wallpaper for iPad - https://bit.ly/3fLubqJ By @Hk3ToN on Twitter ---------------------------------------------------- Website - http://www.zollotech.com Follow me on Twitter - http://www.twitter.com/zollotech Facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/zollotech Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/aaronzollo Pinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/zollotech Telegram - https://t.me/zollotechchat Discord - search zollotech ——————————————————— ——Subscribe to stay up to date with the channel! —— Subscribe - /user/zollotech Make sure to subscribe to the channel & select the bell push notifications (click the BELL icon next to the subscribe button) to be notified immediately when I release a new video.

@rick28534 years ago I purchased my 2020 ipad pro 12. 9 a week ago. Being a pc guy i was hesitant to get the ipad for work due to the lack of power and no mouse support. After also purchased the pen and paperlike and love them both. As a musician the apps i use are forscore, total energy tuner and the microsoft 365 suite. Working with office on the ipad has been a bit awkward but i will work my way through it. Most of my issues are because i expect it to work like the pc side of things. Probably would have been fine if i had come from a mac background. I would highly recommend the 2020 ipad pro, an absolute joy for work and play!. ...Expand
