Apple’s 8th-gen iPad for 2020 continues to be one of the best deals in tech: a stupendous tablet for less than $500. But there are things that grate: the lack of multi user, the low base storage, and no USB‑C. In this review, Dieter Bohn looks at the very good and increasingly annoying aspects of the new iPad.

What would you change about the base iPad?
I am going to ask for this ipad on my birthday
7:14 the ipad 8 now doesn’t shut it’s camera when doing split view in zoom!
Its perfect and i have it
I got the 128gb and its still cheaper than the 64gb ipad air and as someone who needs a lot of storage and plays games it runs really smoothly and fast and the graphics are great! As a student too it fits all my needs I can do everything the newer ipad do even if they do look more sleek and better designed
Watching on my brand new iPad 8th generation!!! 🙌
I came to watch a video talking about the new iPad all I hear is someone complaint for 8 min what this iPad isn’t
I am getting my iPad
I’m getting it
No good. Buy an Android tablet, more intuitive and easy to use and cheaper
The geeks at Apple make everything more complicated than it needs to be
I bought one, never ever again
Does anyone know if this iPad is good for art? I draw with my finger on my phone and laptop but sadly the battery on my laptop dies way to fast to finish any drawing. I wanted to get something with a bigger screen for drawing than just having to use my phone. It seems like the battery life on iPads are good so if anyone runs art programs on theirs or an application that takes a good amount of power, what’s the average battery life?
Lol I’m actually getting one tomorrow for drawing and digital design haha
It’s my first ipad and I didnt wanna start with something more expensive like the air or the pro
Get over your multi user fetish!!!!!!
Why didnt you mention Samsung Galaxy Tabs?
I’m getting a mask 😷 instead of a new iPad. It gets a 10/10 from his review and they are $9 for a box of ten, clearly a better value
What’s that black line on the back of your iPad?
I have iPad 2018 (6th gen) 32gb, should i buy iPad 2020 128gb or wait year or two for next generation?
What is the black line next to the camera I have a iPad 8th gen and it doesn’t have it
iPad Air 2019 or iPad 2020?
Last few seconds cost you a thumb down.
I have a 2017 iPad (32GB) used for content consumption, occasional gaming & some content creation. Still has 16 GB left. If you want it to download stuff on your iPad in a day and age where cloud storage is cheap/free and everything can be streamed perfectly thanks to super fast wifi/4g/5g a 32GB storage is just about enough. Don’t spend the extra to get a higher storage model unless you want to use it as a hard drive.
“Sorry this rant has been in me for a long time“
Yeah, we know, some of us listen to the Vergecast,
The pussiest review.
❤️ Love the larger bezels with my quite large thumbs.
It’s a great iPad. But with a few tweaks, this could be ‘amazingly great’. Been using it for 7 months now.
Replaced my old MacBook Pro 2014 with a Mac Mini 2018 and this iPad (upgraded storage).
people like me who don’t hav ios13: 👁👄👁
The only things i wanna change and still keep the cost in that range:
A laminated display. Same screen size but at least decrease the size of the bezels and move the fingerprint sensor on to the power button instead. No home button required anymore.
That’s it! Is it too much to ask for, Dear 🍎 ?
The review was pretty good until he turned into the mask police
I have the iPad 8
Linus computers from Linus Tech Tips?
- They are slower, they have worst hardware, but they have multiuser support! © Hmmm! Isn’t that one of the reason why many customers choose iPad and not Chromebook?🤔 And Zoom and multitasking on background… isn’t that thing that you can “Zoom” and work at a different application calls laptop? 🤔 multiuser on personal device and “I wan’t much more for the low price” 🤔
Thanks! After i ordered the ipad I wasn’t sure if it had usb‑c or lightning. I needed to know because it would determine if i needed a dongle or not.
People never do enough task on these things to push it to the point where they would need a pro …a12 chipset is a monster still I have this iPad I’m a hard user video editor and multitasker this device is a monster especially with games
If only this thing had type C
What’s the game at 1:16
Is the upgrade in storage $120, a yearly fee or one time fee?
Can’t wait for Dieter’s review on the new iPad 9 😂😂
Awful review.
Im looking into getting an iPad, would it be just as fine to get a 2020 ipad in November 2021?
Is the
Chromebooks are actually quite fast
Just had to talk about masks at the end😂
I’m considering a refurbished one and so here for the option of less whizzbang for less bucks. I have the 1st gen pencil already and the headphone jack indeed, yaas.
