I want to give a special thanks to University of Phoenix for sponsoring this revisited video I'm actually going back to school for a five-week course to strengthen my self security game University of Phoenix waived all fees for the course I'm taking if you want to learn more make sure to stay tuned until the end so it's been a lot of talk in rumors surrounding the iPad pro line presumably it's gonna go bezel as with the notch like the IFO intended but I wanted to go back sort of look at the iPad pro as it exists right now pacifically a twelve point nine inch one it's been over two years since I reviewed it if you guys didn't see that review link to it up here and down below essentially I took it with me on a European trip to essentially use it as my only computer at the time Apple was saying this could replace your computer my conclusion spoiler it was it's nice it's a big iPad and it's not worth the price so now over two years later Apple assorted to fulfill that vision of the iPad being a computer despite my internal hatred for that what's a computer commercial so I wanted to revisit the twelve point nine inch iPad pro and this is the current gen version so the iPad pro came out the biggest limitation to what it could do wasn't hardware specs it was iOS itself I was nine just wasn't ready for what Apple wanted the iPad to be iOS 11 brought a lot of features to the iPad and a few noticeable things made the experience better overall so we've got things like the files app you could finally use an iPad like you could a laptop you could go through and find where your files were located but perhaps the biggest one and one of the largest reasons that I really couldn't recommend the first gen giganto iPad pro it didn't really have true multitasking you could sort of multitask and pick different apps but I was too loved him brought side-by-side multitasking to the iPad line and that brought really good functionality I think you couldn't do before if I had to live in just one app at a time that it might as well just been a gigantic iPhone pretty much what it was so all the software stuff aside another big knock with an iPad pro can't was price it was breezy as expensive coming in around a thousand bucks Apple slashed a price now you can get a brand new to 64 gig version for about seven hundred ninety nine dollars so that's alone is a much more appealing reason to consider and pad Pro I haven't bought one since that first gen came out I didn't see your reason so probably wondering why I've got this one here sometimes we use a teleprompter I'm in the office for four videos for scripts and the smaller iPads that we had weren't cut again so I wanted to try the bigger iPad Brobee zoom ibly a bigger screen to make a teleprompter setup easier so we picked it up to use as a prompt eraser to just use it at home use it as I did my old iPad it started to come to realization that it's improved and my initial thoughts were wrong or at least no longer valid since the software has changed quite a bit to the point where I don't really want to give this away and use it as a prompter although although I probably will so a couple awesome things here that have changed it's the first gen obviously the hardware still looks the same but the hundred twenty Hertz screen is nice it's really not a deal-breaker you turn the screen on you realize that in to steal apples older design language it's the iPhone 8 and older design language here in fact it's got a 77% screen to body ratio and if I was a betting man I would say a surefire bet is that it's gonna go the way of the iPhone 10 like I said those bezels are going to be gone as is the home button but despite being an older design language it's still a really elegant tablet and one that I've absolutely enjoyed using the last bit about the iPad pro Apple talks a lot about the pencil and I'm not an artist I don't draw I see very little need for the Apple pencil doesn't ridiculous to me that to charge it you have to plug it in it just it makes no sense there's no place on the iPad to store it I've lost two of them there was a long issue for a while or if you missed a firmware update on the iPad pencil essentially would brick it I'm not a fan of it I think it is unnecessary but it exists and if you want it get it apples left forcing it on you so I guess that's nice we'd have the choice but the point of this video just to say if you're opinio on the iPad pro is based on the first gen like mine was once I tried that first one then I sold it I never even thought about the twelve point nine inch iPad pro ever again you might want to reconsider it it's a much better experience than when iOS 12 hits the mainstream and actually I didn't get even better and that's where the nice thing about Apple stop birth dates it generally tend to get better and we're closer to the vision of the iPad as a PC we're not there yet we're much closer than we were two years ago so mentioned at the beginning of the video that I'm going back to school it's been now about seven years since I graduated graduate school and things have changed quite a bit TechnoBuffalo has evolved if you following the site are following me for years you will know that our site has been hacked there's multiple attempts pretty regularly and I've tried to work a lot of those but the problems that I kept running into wasn't in all candor my own ignorance I don't speak the language of cybersecurity so how to rely on others that knew it to try and fix it for me and it's had a certain hope that they were doing their job putting up safeguards to make sure that my information safe your information is safe and that the site can't stay up and everybody can keep working so University of Phoenix reached out and see if I was interested in working with them I said yes but I really want it to be on internet in cybersecurity since that is paramount to running my business my small business as an entrepreneur keeping my site up and running is I cannot stress the importance of that alone so I'm embarking on a five-week course I'm right now about a week or so into it so still in the early stages but I'm learning a lot it's my first time taking an online course especially if they're trying to learn how to use it and try to simulate the classroom versus a campus I've been really impressed with the online platform that eCampus far as the work that I'm doing feels very similar to being on campus but I had the flexibility to take the courses and do the work on my own time so if you're interested in the course that I'm taking or any other courses will link to all the stuffs down below those are my revisited thoughts on the twelve point nine inch iPad pro it's kind of a fun exercise to relook at a product I haven't really thought about in over two years and I want to kind of keep this going so if there's a product that you want us to go back and look at even if it's been updated since then let us know in the comments down below we'll take a look at and hopefully this will be the first in a series of revisited style videos like revisit a few years later style video give the video a thumbs up we appreciate it until next time Jon render TechnoBuffalo and you can't have my big iPad for under sorry mark
