2020 iPad Pro for COLLEGE - Student Review By Harris Craycraft

Hey Internet Harris here I hope everybody stays safe and healthy right. Now, school isn't really happening unless your Liberty University most people are at home, taking online classes, but the schoolwork, the studying the note-taking, doesn't stop and the School Simon's to be done and with that said, I want to share my experience with the new 2020 iPad Pro and how I've been using it as a college student as a sophomore at Boston, College, Oh, ? ordinarily show you how my whole routine as a student with great scenery around me at school, but just got my room and my house to show you for any shots in this video, a lot of online classes and just reading at home, but I can still share with you the experience of using this iPad as a student, whether in college or high school or any other environment. Let's go ahead and get started after these two disclaimers one. This video is sponsored by ESR cases. This is their case right here. I love, it links in description phone check out great cases for iPad Pro, and secondly, you can make any mean comments.

You want about. The facial, hair or lack thereof, but just if you say anything, weird I'm, just going to delete your comments all right. Let's do this all right. First and foremost, the iPad is my main way of gathering information from my teachers. So that's going to mean email and canvas for me.

Other universities use blackboard or Schoology or there's a lot of different systems. You might use something differently, but for email it doesn't take a lot of computing power to do that. Well, but the iPad, of course, does it well. I mean I, don't have to go into that too much, but it's great for getting my emails. It's a nice large screen with kind of split screen between my inbox and the contents of the mail itself.

That's simple, and then I use, canvas and canvas will keep me up to date. With notifications. For all my assignments, my teachers can communicate with me and I. Don't need a computer at all. I can just use my iPad for staying up to date with my assignments with everything like that.

I don't have to do anything for my computer there. So a lot of my classes. I am just having to submit papers or files, and that is no problem with the iPad and iPadOS. The file management is great. So if I'm working on a Microsoft Word document or what I use more often is a Pages document, I'm typing up a paper I can submit that right from the canvas application or otherwise.

I can export as a PDF and then upload that right from the canvas, application and I don't have any worries or concerns about that file management is a breeze, and it works very well for getting all of my paperwork. All of my papers. All of my assignments in terms of document submission that's great in terms of document creation. It is actually a really, really good experience, so I use generally Apple's keyboard case, so I'm doing that, so I'll take off the ESR case, and I'll put on Apple's keyboard case, and I'll type away or otherwise. I can use the Bluetooth keyboard.

That I, also use with my Mac and I, can just switch to the iPad and use it with my ESR case, and then I can go ahead and get writing, and now that there is mouth support on the iPad which I've covered in many videos. I will leave that linked in the description, but I can use any Mouse I want, including apples, mice to use with the iPad, and it's great for text selection, which is going to be huge for students working on papers, kind of browsing and submitting things on the web, even Google, Drive and Google Docs, and the Google suite works pretty well on Safari with desktop browsing. Okay, next I just want you to look at what this case can do and how it changes. My life with watching SpongeBob. This is the sponsor ESR.

They have incredible magnetic cases for your iPad. So as much as I love, my Apple keyboard folio case it's a little heavy and when I don't need the keyboard. I'd, rather just have a slim and more protective case to throw in my bag, take around I'm using to watch, Netflix or just taking notes. I don't need the keyboard and ESR has some great options for your iPad. They all have different stand options, so they're more flexible than the iPad in terms of that, some of them have the magnetic attachment to the back of the iPad, which is amazing, and it's like a tenth of the cost of Apple's own case they're.

Slim they're, protective they're, stylish, but they're, just very functional and I think they are better than Apple's cases, because they are much more functional but there's so much cheaper. So if you want just a case for lounging around then ESR is going to help you out. If you want to get this, you can use the code Harris 2020, with the link in the description, and you can get 20% off your order until the end of the month. It's a no-brainer, in my opinion. Now, speaking of desktop browsing, the iPad is also going to be great for now downloading things you can download videos and attachments directly from Safari when you're browsing the web.

So you know a computer feels very different because you can just download anything files. You can download anything now on this iPad now that doesn't mean you're going to be able to open it, because some files aren't supported like if you're trying to download an application right from the web. But if it's a file like a video or really any other type of file that the iPad can handle it'll, give you the options and list all the apps that will be able to open it, and you're going to be able to open a lot of different files, so PowerPoints videos, all the type of stuff you can download to your device and that works very well with the file managing system. Now another great part of the iPad is its Apple. Pencil usage, and I'm going to make a separate video talking about just how I take notes, specifically with the iPad, with notability or good notes.

That's going to be a different video I. Don't leave that linked down in the description, but it's fantastic even for online classes, I'm just taking notes with the iPad. It works great, and the iPad has great new cameras with this one too. So, if you're, using those cameras on the back, that's going to be perfect for scanning documents to put right into your document. I love this, because I can scan a reading.

I can scan really any document and is imported right into my note taking application. What's great about the new iPad is that it starts at 128, gigabytes versus last year's that started at 64 gigabytes. So as a student you'll be able to buy the cheapest model that the baseline model of this- and you won't have to worry about storage, because 128 gigabytes is going to be plenty for photos. Video documents, school apps, all that kind of stuff it'll be great. Telus iPad also has new wide-angle camera, which won't really help you with your schoolwork too much I mean if you are a film major or something.

This is a capable camera, and it's a huge screen, so that viewfinder is gonna, be awesome. So if you need to use it for like a secondary camera or anything like that or just a school project having the wide-angle camera is just going to mean that you can use this iPad even better more efficiently than you could with the old iPad. Just because it's got an amazing camera, and it's now got a wide-angle camera, which is its fun, but it doesn't fundamentally change. You use your iPad for school. It also has a new light, our scanner on the back, which is basically like a depth scanner, it's for augmented reality and stuff.

I think this will be useful down the road, I think eventually, and even right now, there's a little so biology and some different disciplines actually we'll be able to use augmented reality very well right now, I know, there are some apps. You can like to put up a human skeleton or a body and kind of check out the anatomy and the biology, but it's definitely going to be getting better down the road. So if you are looking at this iPad, that actually is a reason to consider it, because it is going to last for many years. I can guarantee that because the last one did too, but the new improvements to the augmented reality is going to I think help students a lot because as classrooms get more virtual as we're seeing right now, I think augmented. Reality is going to start becoming more important for interactive learning with your devices.

So it's going to be really cool and really helpful. Now other features of this iPad, it's superfast. The old iPad Pro was also so really fast, and I mean honestly the old iPad is you can get it for a lot cheaper than it's probably going to be worth it mean. Obviously this new iPad has the storage benefits, so it's actually going to be kind of a better value because of that. But the old iPad is really fast.

This one's not too much faster. It is faster and does have more RAM across the board, which is going to be helpful for when you have a lot of applications open at once, but it's so hard to push the limits of the iPad that you're really not going to notice this iPad being too much faster than the previous iPad Pro. But it's definitely going to be a lot faster than non-Pro iPad. So keep that in mind the microphone on this iPad is actually great. So if your record in class lectures with the teachers' approval, that's going to be helpful, but also, if you're, recording audio for a class like a voice over for like a video project or something like that, you're going to be able to use this iPad for its microphone, and it's going to be usable.

So the same with the new 16-inch MacBook Pro. That has an amazing microphone system on it. So you can record perfect sounding audio just from the microphones built into the computer same with the iPad. It's not incredible, but it's pretty good, and it's definitely going to be good enough for when you're on the fly, recording audio for a class or a video assignment, or anything like that or an interview it'll be great with this iPad Pro. So, ultimately, the iPad Pro is just an incredible device.

Almost everything I do as a communication and philosophy. Major I can do for my iPad, because it's a lot of reading. It's a lot of note-taking, and it's a lot of writing and video watching and stuff like that for things such as what else do my calculus class? That can be a little trickier to do online homework, but I could still do it. For my iPad, you can always use something like puffin browser that supports flash and then other majors might have a little of a harder time that really needs PC or Mac specific software to load and run, but without a doubt it is getting better on the iPad and is becoming more useful as a multidisciplinary tool to like no matter what your major is. It's useful, not everybody's gonna, be able to use this to replace their computer I.

Pretty much am again on philosophy and theology and communication, and even when I was computer science I could do a lot of my work on my iPad I have a video talking about that, not everything, but the iPad is getting slowly and slowly more, like a computer with iPad, OS and mouse support and great keyboard support, and if you want to see other ways that the iPad is used kind of as a computer I'll leave more links down in description, but yeah that's about it. Let me know what comments you have about using this as a student, and I'll get back to you. If you have any questions and make sure to check out ESR, they have great cases for your iPad Pro umm. I love this one, it's so slim, and just look at that beautiful. That's that gonna focus all right there.

We go anyway, thanks so much for watching leave comments down below you can follow me on social media at underscore. Craig Kraft! That's about it see in the next video.
