iPad 8 2020! Why Pay MORE?!

Apple just recently finished their september of 2020 event where they announced a whole bunch of exciting stuff but one of the things that i'm most excited about is the new standard ipad the eighth generation is this new ipad one of the best budget computers that you're ever gonna find let's find out what's up everyone i'm the everday dead and if i can figure it out you can figure it out so i'm a gigantic fan of ipads you probably know that by now if you've watched this channel for any amount of time i love ipads

Yesterday we talked about the ipad air which has shattered my mind i think that's going to be one of the most exciting most powerful computers that's going to be on the market but they also updated the ipad which i also really like i've been using my ipad 7th generation for a very long time i use that around the channel i've used it around the studio here for every it used to be one of my primary computers before i got my ipad pro

So today let's check it out so the biggest update to the ipad that you can see right here they went to the a12 bionic chip this is the ipad here is more of a budget option so you're not going to get all of the bills and the whistles of like the ipad air the ipad pro you can see right from here we still have a more standard ipad design we got the big bezels we got the touch id home button which i very much like um but the big the big selling point this

Year is the a12 bionic chip what else we have here we can kick some serious tasks that's pretty dangerous that's pretty dangerous talk there uh apple so let's check out the tech specs of what we got in the new ipad so we do get silver space gray gold hooray the exciting colors you got to go with the air if you want the exciting colors we can do 32 gigabytes or 128 gigabytes makes sense that's very similar to what we had last year with the seventh generation i don't think the size or the weight dimensions are any different you can see we still have the smart

Connector so you can use things like the smart keyboard we have a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack which i think if you're gonna do a lot of web conferencing the ipad standard is really good because even my ipad pro like no headphone jack on here i gotta have a dongle or use bluetooth headphones and sometimes i just want to use a regular headphone very good here we got stereo speakers on off lightning connector one of the negatives about the ipad is lightning i would like this so much more

You could keep everything else the a12 the bezels everything just give me usbc that's the one thing that i would want out of this you still get dual microphones in the box one of the things i was curious about apple mentioned that they're going to start a new environmental thing where they're carbon neutral by 2030 and they're gonna start cutting out some charges from products like the new apple watch looks like here though you'll continue to get your usb-c cable and your power

Adapter the display it's the same display as we saw last year 10.2 inch retina displays i mean it's a beautiful display 500 nits of brightness fingerprint resistant okay resistance in this list head that could be open for interpretation right resistant and it supports apple pencil first generation i mean i never any generation of apple pencil i don't really use chip we've got the a12 bionic chip you can see the camera stuff you're not going to buy the ipad standard for the camera

But it is nice to know that it will do 1080p recording from the rear camera looks like you do get a little bit of slow motion the front camera will be the 720 hd that you'll see on basically all of the macbooks and the imacs except for the new imac that has a 1080p camera they'll do facetime video nothing nothing too wild i do want to talk a little bit more so the a12 processor is now when apple builds a chip they don't just it's not just one processor like

You may see on like a pc build video they call it the systems of chips so there's like the cpu the gpu all of it's built around this like system so the a12 has a 6 core cpu running at 2.4 gigahertz it also has a 4 core gpu which really helps if you're watching video you're rendering video or you're processing photos or any of those kind of things so you can see all the specs right here but it is a seven nanometer chip which

Is even as like an older chip like even as an old there are computer systems right now like there are computer systems right now that are just switching to seven nanometers and apple's already moving on to five nanometers in like the ipad air this stuff is crazy this is crazy powerful so what are some other things that they say we can do yes like i said you can continue to use the smart keyboard with it i really like the smart keyboard the only reason i don't use it anymore obviously the magic

Keyboard exists and used to drive my wife crazy when i would type on it like she does not like the sound of the typing i don't mind it i actually quite like it we'll get apple like i said we have apple pencil support shoot from the hip er what do we have what do we got what are some other cool things before we move on to the i mean a lot of this there hasn't honestly there hasn't been that much updated in the ipad i still think it will be crazy powerful and i'm excited to get it in here

But let's check out our purchasing options so yep space gray silver gold hooray space gray let's hear your 32 gigabyte or uh whoop no no no go back 32 gigabyte will run us 329 going to 128 gigabytes will be a hundred dollars more if you're not trying to save every single penny i would probably go with 128 gigabyte option it gives you much more flexibility 32 gigabyte it's kind of slim unless you're only going to be using for like content consumption maybe some eye

Messaging but even then if you're going to send pictures or something that's going to fill up fast i would recommend the 120 gigabyte but we'll stick with 32 for now connectivity you can do wi-fi at 329 or wi-fi plus cellular at 459 and if we max this all the way out it will be 559. which for a powerful powerful ipad pack in these kind of specs that's not a bad price it's not a bad price so let's add this to bagging and let's see if we're gonna buy like a whole system we want the pencil

Okay let's add some accessories to see how much we got so we got the pencil we've got the smart keyboard let's go let's see how much that's actually gonna run us because it's never you can just buy these by themselves but you're going to want some accessories like that's what gets the ipad really to a point where if you want to use this for productivity scheduling stuff like that you really need just some key accessories so let's see so we've got the spec out 10.2 with the pencil and the smart keyboard and that

Runs us 866 dollars now that is pretty expensive so let's actually let's remove this if we're going bare bones but we still want the pencil in the keyboard let's see how much that costs we'll do silver this time silver 32 gigabyte wi-fi no engraving add it to the cart okay let's check out our it said cart but now it says bag confusing apple okay so this is 622 now that is that is expensive we have almost doubled our price going with the pencil and the keyboard so that's one of

The trade-offs if you're gonna buy the cheaper ipad the the accessories become like a more expensive purchase by percentages i still think for 600 this is a fantastic deal you're not going to find very many other options out there whether it be tablet or laptop that has this kind of power this kind of size this kind of ease of use and this kind of access and capabilities to a whole ecosystem of like all the apple products that you see right here except my watch

I run so i never have my watch here because it's got to charge after i run every day um but you get access to all of this stuff and it's not that expensive but what do you guys think are you guys planning on getting the ipad generation 8 or are you going to get the ipad air if you're going to get the ipad generation 8 what are some of the things that you are most excited about leave me another comment down below i'd love to talk to you guys i love talking ipads ipads are my favorite thing ever so i would love
