I’ve been running the M5 iPad Pro as my main computer for the last three months, and in this video I break down what that actually looks like day-to-day—work, content, and all the little iPadOS “workarounds” you only notice after the honeymoon phase. I go through who this 2025 iPad Pro is really for, what feels meaningfully better compared to the M4 iPad Pro, and where the iPad still makes you think twice if you’re coming from a Mac. I also talk about the upgrade question in a very practical way: not “is the M5 fast,” but “does that speed change your workflow?” If you’re a student, a creative, or someone building an iPad-first productivity setup, I share the stuff that matters—performance over time, how the setup holds up as a primary machine, and what I’d personally prioritize before spending the money. And because storage and file management are a huge part of an iPad-first workflow, I mention my UGREEN NAS options and why having a reliable home base for your files can make the iPad experience feel way more complete.
