While we are still tracking a $150 price drop on the 24GB M4 Mac mini, today we are turning our attention to some big-time price drops on MacBook Air. The latest M4 models are $150 off in select colors and storage capacities, but we also spotted some select M3 models for folks who don’t need the latest and greatest at $400 off the list prices. We are then highlighting the most affordable current-generation iPad down at $299 in three colors alongside some accessories – the Apple 20W USB-C Power A

iPadOS 26 is awesome, but it still can’t do these 5 Mac essentials

9to5mac.com Fernando Silva 2026-03-01 11:18:14

Before we deep dive into this topic, I want to mention that I love iPadOS 26. Yes, it’s the first beta, so plenty of tweaking and optimization still needs to get done. But overall, it’s been what I have wanted on iPadOS for years. That being said, a few things still hold it back from being a true MacBook replacement for some people. So if you’re debating between an iPad Pro or a MacBook, here are five essential things iPadOS still can’t do. Be sure to catch our video below to see a first-hand c

iPadOS 26: Testing the new local capture for podcasting

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-03-01 22:30:00

If you’re a creator or podcaster, I’ll bet your ears perked up towards the end of the WWDC25 keynote, when Apple announced that built-in local audio and video capture during calls would be coming to iPadOS 26. And while I have tried (and repeatedly failed) to fit the iPad in my podcasting workflow, I knew Jason Snell would be one of the first to take the feature for a spin. And he did just that. Currently on iOS and iPadOS, once you’re on a call, you can’t run a second app in the background to

Review: Logitech Flip Folio is a fun new iPad keyboard case, if you’re the right user

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2026-03-01 11:30:00

A few weeks ago, Logitech announced an interesting new keyboard case for the iPad Air and iPad Pro – called the Logitech Flip Folio. It takes a different approach, and certainly targets a new market that hasn’t quite been thought about before. Overview First things first, this keyboard does not utilize the smart connector – unlike other Logitech keyboards for iPad. However, as you’ll soon see – that’s an essential part of the product.

I’m not typically an iPad fan, but the M4 iPad Pro changed my mind

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2026-03-01 14:15:44

For the longest time, I had believed that purchasing a new iPad at full price never made any sort of sense. Ultimately, you’re paying more than an equivalently spec’d MacBook, for less capability. It always felt like iPadOS was the key limiting factor for the iPad, not the hardware. However, I’ve now owned an M4 iPad Pro for nearly a year, and I can confidently say it’s changed how I feel towards iPads. And that’s before factoring in all of the great new features in iPadOS 26.

The iPad Is Almost a Mac Now. Time to Finish the Job

What's a computer? It's whatever helps me get my work done. I love new ideas for what computers can be, but traditional work tools still win out. For my job, it's generally a PC or Mac. When I travel, an iPad is often convenient, but it's not the same, so I often bring both. The "why not both" approach is exactly what Apple has been pitching with iPads and Macs for years, but Apple has also been adamant that these platforms will never merge.

I tried to replace my aging Pixelbook with an iPad on iPadOS 26; here’s how it went

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-07 06:30:37

Oliver Cragg / Android Authority It’s been nine years since Apple released an ad for the 2016 iPad Pro, which asked, “What is a computer?” That ad has been mocked ever since, as the iPad has always been seen as too compromised compared to a MacBook, Chromebook, or Windows laptop to serve as a full computer replacement for most people. However, iPadOS 26 brings some significant changes to the iPad, and I think it might be enough for the iPad to replace my aged Google Pixelbook. So, I installed

iPad Air vs reMarkable Paper Pro: Which tablet is best for note taking? [Updated]
