The iPad is a good part of what I use daily as a blogger and a tech person. Was my old one getting it done for me?
iPad
I talked about the iPad I have been using here. I have been using this for a while. This was my second iPad, and I like this tablet. But, it was getting slower and slower, making it hard for me to do what I needed to get done. Plus, the keyboard was a separate item, meaning I had to carry something around.
Solution
I have been looking for a new iPad, and I think my wife got tired of hearing me complain about how slow the iPad was. She just said buy yourself a new one. I am sure she said some other words. But I went out and got me a new one.
I picked up a
- Apple
- 5th Generation
- With Wifi
- 10.9 Inch iPad Air
- Blue
- 64GB
I also picked up an Apple Pencil, 2nd Generation model.
I need to learn how to use this better. It could come in handy.
Case
I needed a case for this, and I was looking for something with a keyboard. I found the following issue.
Logitech Combo Touch Keyboard Folio For Apple
- Detachable Backlit keyboard
This is a perfect case, and I love the keyboard. It comes in so much better than the setup I have been using.
Thoughts
I like this iPad, and it is the new version. Hopefully, it last me a few years. I should have gotten the 128GB model. I only got the 64GB since most of the stuff I use stores everything on the cloud, but I do have the following:
- Song
- 1
- Videos
- 2,125
- Photos
- 14,576
- Applications
- 112
Which only leaves me 13 GB free. Yea, you might think, why in the heck do you have 112 applications? Do you use all of them?
I am sure I can remove some of them. But I use about 80% of them. But the easy use of this iPad and case makes it much better to carry around and work on.
I have taken it to
- Hawaii
- Pacific Coastal Cruise
- LA to Vancouver
I use it for
- Work
- Teaching a class
- Watching Video’s
- Reading Kindle books on it
- When I don’t have my Kindle
- Plan out things
- And more
Yes, it doesn’t have one of the features I wanted. But that is OK, and I will be using this more often. I might even make some videos on this. Maybe we will see one soon.
