Ipados 14 introduces new features designed specifically for ipad
iPadOS 14 brings Scribble to iPad with Apple Pencil, allowing users to write in any text field — where it will automatically be converted to typed text — making actions like replying to an iMessage or searching in Safari fast and easy. All handwriting and conversion to text happens on device, keeping it private and secure. When taking notes, Smart Selection uses on-device machine learning to distinguish handwriting from drawings, so handwritten text can easily be selected, cut, and pasted into another document as typed text. Shape recognition allows users to draw shapes that are made geometrically perfect and snap right into place when adding useful diagrams and illustrations in Notes.
Data detectors now work with handwritten text to recognize phone numbers, dates, and addresses, and offer users the ability to take actions like tapping a written number to make a call, adding an event directly to Calendar, or showing a location in Maps.
Scribble will initially offer support for English, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, and mixed Chinese and English, so users can write English and Chinese words together without needing to switch languages.
. Drawing apps for iPad: Illustrator
Creatives are delighted with Illustrator on the iPad. It brings the core design capabilities of Illustrator but reimagined for the iPad and the Apple Pencil. The demos of the new features like radial, grid and mirror repeat are super-promising, offering brilliant additions for designers.
This app is designed to seamlessly send files back and forward from the main Illustrator software, and though it may feel different from the flagship program at the moment, this is only version one and there will be loads more features coming later (including more brushes and effects, and Sensai features).
You can try it free along with your Creative Cloud Subscription. Don’t have one? See here to get the best Adobe deals.
. Inspire Pro
Inspire Pro has one of the fastest and most realistic rendering engines on the App Store, delivering a fluid and natural experience that makes it one of our favourite drawing apps for iPad.
It sports 150 brushes including oil paint, airbrushes, spray paint, pencils, crayons, markers, chalk, charcoal, pastels and paint splatters. Inspire Pro also has a wide variety of high-quality and customisable tools for you to choose from.
With Apple Pencil and iPad Pro, the size and opacity of brush strokes react instantly to applied pressure, tilt angle and orientation for unprecedented creative control on a mobile device. Give one of the brushes from the Graphite Pencils set a try with Apple Pencil and iPad Pro, for example, and you’ll quickly forget that you’re not using an actual pencil and paper.
. Linea Sketch
Linea Sketch is an approachable drawing app, which has been highly praised for its updated UI and feature set – making it a real contender in the drawing app space. If you’re looking for something simple, you can’t go wrong with this app, which has been designed with simplicity in mind – and a particular focus on sketching.
The app comes complete with a blend tool, fill tool and vast array of vibrant colour options, as well as a simplified set of five layers. You can use it with your finger or the Apple Pencil, depending on your preference, and it even allows you to record your drawing process so you can watch it back later.
. Artstudio Pro
Artstudio Pro for iPad is the successor to ArtStudio – a legacy version of which is still available for $4.99/£4.99. The new version has been optimised for Apple Pencil, and claims to be 5-10 times faster than ArtStudio.
There are new and improved tools, which include 27 blending modes, over 100 built-in brushes and the ability to import all types of formats, including ABL brushes. There are also various different canvas sizes and options that include layers, layer masks, filters and effects. With an active community and plenty of features to play around with, we think this is a great choice for artists.
. Comic Draw
While some painting and drawing apps cover a broad range of abilities and creative disciplines, Comic Draw is single-minded in its purpose. Comic artists are its target, and in those terms it is a highly effective tool. The app features a tool that enables you to lay out the panels on your page, guides to help you keep a perfect perspective and layers to enable you to build your drawings.
You’ll also find a digital sketchpad for experimenting with your concepts, and an inking and colouring interface to help you finish your design with various brushes. Comic Draw provides a lettering suite made up of different typefaces, balloons and design tools to add the all-important words, and you can add as many pages as you want to make everything from a comic strip to a full-length book. There’s a free trial available before you buy.
. Photoshop Sketch
A lightweight and free version of the full Photoshop, Photoshop Sketch nevertheless features some decent tools including a graphite pencil, ink pen and watercolour brushes, with adjustable size, colour, opacity and blending settings.
You can layer and rearrange your images, use perspective and graph grids to help align your creations, and there’s support for pretty much any stylus you care to think of. Plus, you can export your work to Illustrator or Photoshop if you have a Creative Cloud account (subscribe to Adobe Creative Cloud here). However, if you’re planning on using Photoshop Sketch as a stand-alone app then you’ll only need the basic free version.
. Clip Studio Paint Ex
Another full-featured desktop paint app that’s now on the iPad, Clip Studio Paint Ex is great for drawing comics and manga, and it can also be used to create any kind of digital art. It’s also one of the few drawing apps for iPad that brings the feel of traditional drawing to the digital space, making this the perfect app for creating your illustrations and sketches while on the go.
This app comes packed with drawing tools such as pencils, markers, calligraphy pens and air brushes. And because the drawing engine works so well with the Apple Pencil, you’ll have a full range of pressure-sensitive dynamics to get your linework perfect. Another bonus is when you sign up for Clip Studio Paint EX subscription, you get three months free.

Apple уходит из китая?
Когда торговые войны между США и Китаем вспыхивали одна за одной, в адрес Apple высказывались упреки в её чрезмерной зависимости от Китая. Задолго до избрания Трампа президентом США, еще во времена Стива Джобса, в руководстве Apple не раз и не два обсуждали способы диверсификации производства.
С вступлением Трампа в должность все изменилось. Хаб, как прежде, блестяще исполнял любые желания клиента, но торговые войны, угрозы ввода пошлин и последствия эпидемии коронавируса необратимо изменили мир. Китай все еще лучший, но диверсификация из абстрактной темы превратилась в абсолютную необходимость.
В том, что китайский хаб близок к идеалу, заслуга не только трудолюбия китайцев или их особого воспитания (трудолюбие и воспитание сыграли очень важную роль) – китайское чудо сотворили безумные авантюристы с Тайваня, въедливостью и упорством. Первой на этом пути была Hon Hai Precision, за пределами Тайваня известная как Foxconn.
К слову, Foxconn не всегда успешно открывает новые заводы: на одном из ее объектов в США рабочие ничего не делали и смотрели сериалы, в результате чего производство пришлось свернуть.
Сегодня таких компаний с десяток, они очень успешны. На приручение Китая у них ушло лет десять. С Индией, Мексикой и несколькими другими странами за 3-4 года этого добиться не удалось. Но вот в одной из стран пошло иначе.
Best ipad 2021: is the ipad air, mini or pro the best for you?
Our best iPad guide has recently had a new addition in the form of the super-powerful iPad Pro 11 (2021). This incredible slate ranks high, but it doesn’t top our list, and it certainly won’t be the best Apple iPad for everyone.
Choosing the right slate for you means knowing not just your budget but also what you want from a tablet. Do you want something compact and portable like the iPad mini (2021)? Something powerful enough for work and high-end gaming, like the iPad Pro 12.9 (2021)? Or something affordable like the iPad 10.2 (2020)?
For each entry you’ll find a specs list, a brief overview, and the main highlights and low points of the slate, so you can quickly see which ones are right for you.
And make sure to check back regularly if you want to keep up to date on the best iPad options, as it’s looking like we might see the iPad mini 6, iPad Air 5, and new iPad (2021) later this year.
But while there’s an iPad suited to most people, if you decide Apple’s devices aren’t for you then make sure to also check out our best tablet, best Android tablet, and best cheap tablet guides for other options.
The iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) is a very big, very powerful, and very expensive tablet. That’s true of all the 12.9-inch iPad Pro models, but on the power front this one takes things to a whole new level, swapping out a mobile chipset for the Apple M1, which is found in top-end MacBooks and iMacs.
This means it’s a tremendously high-powered device, ideal for demanding tasks like video editing, graphic design, and top-tier games.
On top of that, the iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) also has a superb 2048 x 2732 Mini LED screen. This is the first iPad to use that display technology, and it allows for a seriously bright screen with great contrast.
Elsewhere you get 10 hours of battery life, a typically premium aluminum shell, up to 2TB of storage, and support for the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil 2, allowing you to take this beyond a mere productivity device.
Note: we’re only talking about the 12.9-inch model here. There’s also an iPad Pro 11 (2021), but we haven’t reviewed that yet. On paper it’s largely similar, but with a less impressive screen that doesn’t use Mini LED.
Read the full review:iPad Pro 12.9 (2021)
The iPad 10.2 (2020) isn’t the most thrilling of updates, as it’s really only a modest improvement on 2021’s iPad 10.2, but it’s still an improvement, and that makes it the best 10.2-inch iPad you can buy, and also arguably the best cheap iPad.
Its A12 Bionic chipset is faster than its predecessor’s processor, and the 20W charger in the box ensures you can also juice it up more quickly.
Plus, the iPad 10.2 (2020) has all the great features you’d expect, including support for the Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard, plus strong battery life. The selfie camera doesn’t impress and storage starts low, but opt for a 128GB model and you’ll have an impressive and versatile tablet on your hands.
Read the full review:iPad 10.2 (2020)
The iPad Pro 11 (2021) is a powerful, expensive slate, and a great choice for anyone who wants the best specs possible in a relatively compact and portable size. That said, it lacks the iPad Pro 12.9 (2021)’s Mini LED screen, making it a significant step down from that slate.
That disappointment and our ongoing issues with Apple’s restrictive iPad software aside though, the iPad Pro 11 (2021) is an excellent tablet, with a big, sharp, smooth screen, and an enormous amount of power, thanks to its desktop-class M1 chipset.
It also has around 10 hours of battery life, which is fairly typical for Apple tablets but good nonetheless, and it comes with up to 2TB of storage – a mammoth amount that should be more than enough for almost anyone.
With a sleek, stylish design too plus a selection of optional accessories, such as the Apple Pencil and the Magic Keyboard, this is a tablet that should suit almost anyone – though it’s likely to be overkill for many.

The iPad Air 4 (2020) is almost an iPad Pro, yet it’s a whole lot cheaper than any recent Pro model, making it a very tempting buy for all but the most demanding of users.
It looks a lot like an iPad Pro for one, with its all-screen front, and like an iPad Pro it supports both the second-gen Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard.
It also has an enormous amount of power thanks to its A14 Bionic chipset – that’s the same as you’ll find in the iPhone 12 range, and actually newer than the chipset in the iPad Pro (2020) range. Plus there are four powerful speakers, a decent (albeit 60Hz) 10.9-inch screen, and good battery life.
The iPad Air 4 also comes in a wide range of colors, which isn’t something you can say about other recent Apple tablets.
Read the full review:iPad Air 4 (2020)
Sometimes with a tablet you just want a slightly plus-sized phone, and the iPad Mini (2021) fits that bill. It’s a dinky device with some impressive specs, boasting Apple’s most recent processor and a decent battery life.
What makes the iPad Mini (2021) great is the fact you can use the Apple Pencil alongside it, turning the iPad Mini into a tiny notebook in your pocket.
The iPad Mini is one of the best small tablets you can get at its price point, so if you’re looking for an easily totable pocket powerhouse, you can’t get much better than this little monster.
Read the full review:iPad Mini (2021)
The iPad Air, with a 10.5-inch screen, is the ultimate compromise between the entry-level iPads and the more powerful, but more expensive iPad Pro 11. It sits at the original iPad price in most countries, so it’s cheaper than the iPad Pro 10.5 (2021) that it replaces, and although it isn’t a ‘Pro’ tablet in name, it has several high-end features that make it a convincing laptop supplement.
It’s one of the cheaper iPad models that’s compatible with Apple’s Smart Keyboard Cover, meaning you don’t need to deal with tricky Bluetooth keyboard connections to get real work done on this thing.
It also has Apple’s A12 chipset, borrowed from the iPhone XS. It’s incredibly fast. Students will be able to take notes and respond to email on this tablet, but artists will hate the first-generation Apple Pencil.
Read the full review:iPad Air 3 (2021)
The iPad Pro 12.9 (2020) is one of the biggest, best and most powerful tablets you can buy – but not quite the best, as it’s been superseded by the iPad Pro 12.9 (2021).
While that slate has far more power and an even better screen, it also costs even more, and the iPad Pro 12.9 (2020) comes close in most areas.
It has a powerful A12Z Bionic chipset, a sharp 2048 x 2732 screen, excellent speakers, a sleek design, decent battery life, and support for accessories like the Magic Keyboard and the Apple Pencil 2.
It’s a top productivity choice, and while it’s arguably overkill for mobile gaming and media, it will excel for those things too. Really the only mark against it other than the high price is the fact that it’s no longer quite the newest or best in the range, but in real world use you might struggle to tell much difference between this and the latest model.

The iPad 10.2 (2021) brings Apple’s basic tablet range a step closer to the iPad Pro line – or at least the latest iPad Air — with the addition of Smart Keyboard support and a slightly larger screen, growing from 9.7 inches to 10.2 inches.
The iPad 10.2 also got a power boost, with an extra gigabyte of RAM compared to the iPad 9.7 (2021), though it’s stuck with the same A10 chipset.
It also has broadly the same design, meaning big bezels and a home button. So if you want one of Apple’s sleekest slates, this isn’t it.
But with strong battery life, decent performance, and a fairly low price – at least by Apple standards – there’s a lot to like here, especially if you want some of Apple’s best iPad features on a more limited budget.
Read the full review:iPad 10.2 (2021)
The iPad Pro 11 (2021) is getting on a bit but remains impressive. It may be expensive, but it’s very powerful and furthers the 2-in-1 design ethos if you spring for the pricey keyboard cover folio.
It has a laptop-like experience in design and performance, and the Apple Pencil magnetically clips onto the frame of the iPad Pro. With superb speakers and a great new screen-to-body ratio, it’s hard not to fall in love with the finely crafted hardware design.
And with the arrival of iPadOS its software has been transformed, making it even better than it was at launch.
However, it doesn’t have a headphone jack. If you want the standard 3.5mm jack in a computer-like device, you’ll spring for an actual computer.
Everything about the iPad Pro 11 makes it at great tablet experience — you’ll just need to swallow the high price — but it’s no MacBook replacement.
Read the full review:iPad Pro 11 (2021)
This is a good Apple iPad for the average consumer and for education, even if it isn’t the most powerful one available. It’s still great value. That said, the newer iPad 10.2 has it beat for most users, and has the advantage of still being sold direct from Apple, which this model isn’t.
The iPad (2021) replaces the very similar 2021 model, slotting in below the Pro and Air ranges with a dependable tablet that hasn’t changed much in years — but Apple clearly feels it doesn’t need to mess with success.
The basic iPad works with the Apple Pencil, offering you the cheapest way to doodle on the 9.7-inch glass — though you can’t get the Smart Keyboard with this non-Pro model, for that you’ll need the newer 10.2-inch one.
It also has the same luxurious metal unibody as the rest of Apple’s iPad range, though notably it’s ever-so-slightly thicker than the iPad Air 2 or iPad Pro at 7.5mm.
With the Touch ID fingerprint sensor included, iPadOS 13 under the hood and up to 10 hours of battery life when web browsing or watching videos, it’s a great media player and a strong tablet choice if you’re not planning to use it heavily for productivity.

Dedicated email alongside your pc
Your iPad use shouldn’t stop just because you sat down at your desktop computer. The iPad can serve a number of great functions while you work. Use it as an email client or instant message client, or as quick access to a web browser.
This works even better if you have a dock for your iPad, which makes it almost like another monitor. If you want it to act as an additional monitor, download an app like Duet Display.
Important handling information for ipad
Cleaning Clean iPad immediately if it comes in contact with anything that may cause stains or other damage—for example, dirt or sand, ink, makeup, soap, detergent, acids or acidic foods, and lotions. To clean:
The front of iPad is made of glass with a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic (oil-repellant) coating. This coating wears over time with normal usage. Cleaning products and abrasive materials will further diminish the coating and may scratch the glass.
Using connectors, ports, and buttons Never force a connector into a port or apply excessive pressure to a button, because this may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. If the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Check for obstructions and make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.
Lightning to USB Cable (models with a Lightning connector) Discoloration of the Lightning connector after regular use is normal. Dirt, debris, and exposure to moisture may cause discoloration. If your Lightning cable or connector become warm during use or your iPad won’t charge or sync, disconnect it from your computer or power adapter and clean the Lightning connector with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use liquids or cleaning products when cleaning the Lightning connector.
Lightning to USB Cable or USB-C Charge Cable (depending on model) Certain usage patterns can contribute to the fraying or breaking of cables. The included cable, like any other metal wire or cable, is subject to becoming weak or brittle if repeatedly bent in the same spot. Aim for gentle curves instead of angles in the cable. Regularly inspect the cable and connector for any kinks, breaks, bends, or other damage. Should you find any such damage, discontinue use of the cable.
Operating temperature iPad is designed to work in ambient temperatures between 32° and 95° F (0° and 35° C) and stored in temperatures between -4° and 113° F (-20° and 45° C). iPad can be damaged and battery life shortened if stored or operated outside of these temperature ranges. Avoid exposing iPad to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity. When you’re using iPad or charging the battery, it is normal for iPad to get warm.
If the interior temperature of iPad exceeds normal operating temperatures (for example, in a hot car or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time), you may experience the following as it attempts to regulate its temperature:
iPad stops charging.
The screen dims.
A temperature warning screen appears.
Some apps may close.
Important: You may not be able to use iPad while the temperature warning screen is displayed. If iPad can’t regulate its internal temperature, it goes into deep sleep mode until it cools. Move iPad to a cooler location out of direct sunlight and wait a few minutes before trying to use iPad again.
See the Apple Support article Keeping iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch within acceptable operating temperatures.
Ipad — сделано во вьетнаме
В начале следующего года президентские полномочия Трампа прекратятся. Как минимум для диверсификации производства крупнейшими американскими компаниями он сделал больше, чем все предыдущие президенты вместе взятые. Торговый войны между Китаем и США, в худшем из возможных случаев, будут случаться реже (и наносить меньший ущерб), возможно они вообще прекратятся.
Но чрезмерная зависимость от Китая уже не кажется неизлечимой хронической болезнью. Это лечится. Мириться с ней больше не станут, но и эвакуироваться из материкового Китая ни Apple, ни Foxconn не собираются. Слишком много сил и средств было вложено в создание этого идеального хаба.
Речь идет именно о диверсификации. В Индии, Мексике и ряде других стран уже развернуто производство изделий Apple. А на место второго идеального хаба уже есть претендент – это Вьетнам. Здесь уже налажено производство iPhone ряда моделей и некоторых комплектующих, в ближайшие месяцы производственные линии на Северо-Востоке в провинции Бакзянг будут введены в эксплуатацию.
Здесь будут производить до половины MacBook и iPad. У Вьетнама только один недостаток – по сравнению с Китаем или Индией трудовых ресурсов в этой стране всего ничего. Вас бы смутила надпись на iPad «сделано в Китае»? Или не имеет значения? Расскажите, что думаете об этом в комментариях или в нашем чате.

Ipad generations list: all the kinds of ipads & their features
Below you will find all the generations of the iPad in chronological order, with details and specifications including their model numbers. If you’re wondering what is the newest iPad, that will depend on whether you mean the iPad, iPad Air, iPad Mini, or iPad Pro.
Ipad models: how to find your ipad’s model number
The easiest way to begin your search for which kind of iPad you own is to find your device’s model number. The first method doesn’t even require that you turn on your iPad; all you need to do is look on the back of your device. You’ll see iPad emblazoned there, and underneath there will be smaller print, including the capital letter a, followed by a series of numbers.
- Open the Settings app.
- Tap General.
- Tap About.
- In the Model Number section, you may see alonger number that ends with «A». This is your iPad’s SKU number. To view your model number, tap once on this section and you’ll get a shorter number that begins with «A».
Now that you have your model number, it’s time to use that information to discover what kind of iPad you own.
