So if you're watching this video, you're probably wondering, should I get the iPad?

所以如果你正在看這支影片，你可能在想，我應該要買 iPad 嗎？

Or if you already have one, you're wondering if you made the right choice.

或者如果你已經有一臺了，你可能在想自己是不是做對了決定。

After all, it is a very interesting device and is the natural progression if you already own an iPhone and a MacBook.

畢竟，它確實是個很有趣的裝置，而且如果你已經有 iPhone 和 MacBook，這也是很自然的升級。

But here's the thing, the iPad often sparks this love hate relationship in a lot of people's minds.

但問題是，iPad 在很多人心中常常會激起一種又愛又恨的感覺。

In one of my previous videos, somebody commented that the iPad was the most useful and pointless device both at the same time.

在我之前的其中一支影片裡，有人留言說 iPad 是最有用的，同時也是最沒用的裝置。

Now, I've been using this M4 iPad Pro for a whole year now, and

現在，我已經用這臺 M4 iPad Pro 整整一年了，

in this video I wanna talk about ownership over the past year.

在這支影片裡，我想聊聊過去一年的使用心得。

What makes the iPad great, where it falls short.

讓 iPad 變得很棒的地方，以及它還有哪些不足。

And most importantly, is the iPad a device you actually need in your life?

最重要的是，iPad 是你生活中真的需要的裝置嗎？

Now, the first thing I want to go over is quickly, what configuration did I go with and also what accessories I picked up.

接下來，我想先快速講一下我選擇了什麼配置，以及我還買了哪些配件。

So firstly, I went with the silver M4 iPad Pro.

首先，我選擇了銀色的 M4 iPad Pro。

When the M4 version came out last year, it really intrigued me because it was so thin and, and

M4 版本去年剛推出時，真的讓我很好奇，因為它超薄，而且

Like yes, other iPads have been thin and light, but

雖然其他 iPad 也一直很薄很輕，但是

this one in particular, at 5 millimeters thin and less than a pound in weight, got me intrigued.

這臺特別的，厚度只有 5 毫米，重量不到一磅，真的讓我很好奇。

And then the reason I went with the Pro version is because I really wanted the Pro Motion 120Hz display.

我之所以選擇 Pro 版本，是因為我真的很想要 Pro Motion 120Hz 的螢幕。

I have a whole separate video comparing the iPad Pro and the Air if you're interested in that.

我有另外一支影片比較 iPad Pro 和 Air，如果你有興趣的話可以看看。

So as much as this pained me to purchase, I figured that the $300 magic keyboard was a necessity for me just because of how Versat palette is.

雖然買這個讓我有點心痛，但我認為這臺 300 美元的 magic keyboard 對我來說是必需品，因為它的多功能性實在太強了。

As soon as you connect it, it just goes on using magnets and all of a sudden you have a cursor and a full size keyboard.

一接上去，它就靠著磁吸功能連接，然後你就會突然多出一個遊標和一個全尺寸鍵盤。

By attaching this, you can almost use it as more of a hybrid laptop.

裝上這個之後，你幾乎可以把它當成一臺混合式的筆記型電腦來使用。

And also it just protects your iPad so you can chuck this into a bag.

而且它還可以保護你的 iPad，讓你隨手就能把它丟進包包裡。

Now, the other thing that I've recently installed on my iPad is this matte screen protector by today's sponsor, Paperlike.

再來，我最近在我的 iPad 上安裝的另一個東西，就是我今天要介紹的贊助商 Paperlike 的霧面螢幕保護貼。

Now if you are an artist, you've probably heard of Paperlike, but

如果你是藝術家，你可能聽過 Paperlike，

if you haven't, it's basically this matte screen protector that A obviously protects your screen, but

但如果你沒聽過，它基本上就是一個霧面螢幕保護貼，A 當然是保護你的螢幕，但

B, also provides a really SM experience to your iPad.

B，它也為你的 iPad 提供了非常棒的書寫體驗。

In my opinion, even with the screen protector on, the clarity is fantastic.

我個人覺得，即使貼了螢幕保護貼，畫質依然很棒。

Especially when you're looking at it straight on.

I don't feel like it diminishes the quality too much.

我覺得它並不會讓畫質差太多。

They also offer a hundred day money back guarantee.

他們也提供一百天的退款保證。

So for Some reason, if you mess up your installation twice or just don't like it, they will refund your money.

所以如果你安裝了兩次失敗，或者就是不喜歡，他們都會退錢給你。

With that said, let's get back to the video Now.

in that year I have went through many phases and thoughts about this iPad.

在這一年裡，我對這臺 iPad 經歷了很多不同的階段和想法。

But let me just back up and start with the first month of ownership.

不過讓我先回頭說說剛買來的第一個月。

And that is what I would call the honeymoon phase.

So if you do decide to get an iPad, the first month of ownership with the iPad is gonna look like basically using it every day.

所以如果你決定要買 iPad，剛買來的第一個月，你會幾乎每天都在用它。

Like, this is gonna be the best device ever and you're gonna love it.

你會覺得這根本是史上最強大的裝置，你會愛死它。

The fact that you get such a big display that is oled and bright.

這麼大一片 OLED 又亮的螢幕，這點真的很棒。

I was using this device every day for lunch, basically just watching shows and youtub like, you can't argue that this isn't a fantastic experience.

我每天午餐時間都用這臺裝置，主要就是看劇和 YouTube，說真的，這體驗真的很棒，沒什麼好挑剔的。

It really is a game changer when it comes to consuming content.

它在觀看內容這方面，真的可以說是改變遊戲規則的。

Also, something that I think the iPad is perfect for is just doing light research.

另外，我覺得 iPad 非常適合做的一件事，就是做些輕度的研究。

I personally love to go on Google Maps and just go around looking for new restaurants in my area or if somewhere I'm traveling to.

但我個人很喜歡打開 Google Maps，到處看看我住家附近或是我要去旅行的地方有什麼新餐廳。

Maybe you're on all trails and you're looking for a new hike.

也許你在 AllTrails 上，想找個新的健行路線。

Maybe you're going somewhere and you're looking through Airbnbs.

也許你要去某個地方，正在瀏覽 Airbnb。

And sure, you could do on your phone or you could do this on your laptop, but

當然，你也可以用手機或筆電做這些事，但是

I think the beauty in doing it on your iPad is just the fact that it's so portable and lightweight.

我覺得用 iPad 做的美妙之處，就在於它非常輕巧又方便攜帶。

You can take this, like I said, into your bed, on the couch, to a coffee shop.

你可以帶著它，就像我說的，到床上、沙發上、咖啡廳。

There's probably a ton more use cases where the iPad really shines, like doing your emails, editing your photos, maybe going through Notion or Google Docs, that sort of like singular task where you're focused.

可能還有很多 iPad 真的很適合做的事情，像是處理你的電子郵件、編輯照片，或是用 Notion 或 Google Docs，那種專注於單一任務的時侯。

I think all of that stuff you'll soon discover in your first month of ownership is like, wow, this iPad can actually do a whole lot more than I thought.

我覺得這些事情，在你擁有的第一個月就會發現，哇，這個 iPad 真的比我想像的還能做更多事。

then you get into the other months and you start to push it a little bit more.

然後你進入了後面的幾個月，開始稍微多地去嘗試。

And so months two to four, I would say was when I started discovering where the iPad falls short.

然後到了第二到第四個月，我開始發現 iPad 的不足之處。

Because despite how good it is, it still is limited by one thing, iPadOS.

因為儘管它很好用，但仍然受限於一件事，那就是 iPadOS。

And there's a couple of frustrations here that actually arose during this time.

在這段時間裡，確實出現了幾個令人沮喪的地方。

The first one is where do I go to access certain apps.

第一個問題是，我要去哪裡才能使用某些 App。

This is the experience of using Instagram on the iPad.

這就是在 iPad 上使用 Instagram 的體驗。

Like, yes, you could make it bigger like this.

就像，對，你可以像這樣把它放大。

But then it, I don't know, it just feels awkward.

但這樣做，我不知道，感覺就是有點彆扭。

There's often apps that actually aren't supported on the iPad.

常常有些 App 其實並不支援 iPad。

The second problem is that even if there is an app that is supported on the iPad, sometimes it's actually better to access it through Safari.

第二個問題是，就算有支援 iPad 的 App，有時候用 Safari 來用反而更好。

The best example of this is with Google Sheets.

I'm going to launch Google Sheets on iPad.

我現在就來打開 iPad 上的 Google Sheets。

This is actually the app that Google built.

And you can see there's a lot of features missing.

Usually there's this bar across the top with a bunch of different options.

通常上面會有一條工具列，有很多不同的選項。

And then let's say in this column I wanted to categorize it as a currency, like a US dollar currency.

然後，假設我想在這個欄位裡，把這個設成貨幣，像是美金貨幣。

Usually at the top there would be some options where I could do that.

通常在上面會有幾個選項可以讓我這樣做。

But in the app there's actually no way to do this.

但在這個 App 裡，其實根本沒辦法這樣做。

There is a little three dot thing here, but that expands into not too many options.

這邊有一個小小的三點圖示，但展開後選項不多。

And so when you launch Google Sheets on Safari, let's say I want to format this column as a currency.

然後，假設我在 Safari 上打開 Google Sheets，我想把這個欄位設成貨幣。

I can go to format number and then down here to currency.

我可以到「格式」、「數字」，然後在這裡選擇「貨幣」。

So right, there was one example of how do I access a certain app?

所以，這是一個關於如何使用特定 App 的例子。

要使用這個 App 的最佳方式是什麼？

Is it through the built in app that that company has built or is it actually through Safari?

是透過公司內建的 App，還是其實是透過 Safari？

And so the next few months of ownership was actually figuring out when to not use the iPad and just use my MacBook and when it's okay to use the iPad.

所以接下來幾個月的使用體驗，其實就是在摸索什麼時候該用 iPad，什麼時候該用 MacBook。

And as you get into it, you start learning.

Okay, so actually the iPad is also not great for multitasking because instead of a cursor you actually get a circular blob which isn't as exact.

好的，所以 iPad 在多工處理方面其實也不太理想，因為它不是遊標，而是一個圓形的點，精確度沒那麼高。

And you also don't obviously get as much screen real estate as a MacBook.

而且你當然也無法像 MacBook 那樣獲得這麼大的螢幕空間。

And then another thing is file management.

The files app on iPadOS is nowhere near as capable as the phone finder app on macOS.

iPadOS 的檔案 App，跟 macOS 的 Finder 比起來，功能真的差很多。

And then sometimes you just wish you had some more ports.

然後有時候你就會覺得，希望有多幾個連接埠。

The iPad only has one USB C port, which sometimes you have to use for charging.

iPad 只有一個 USB C 連接埠，有時候你還得用來充電。

But for the most part, the theme for months two to four was that the iPad is not a laptop replacement.

但大部分時間，第二到第四個月的主題都是，iPad 不能取代筆記型電腦。

So at this point I've kind of gone over what the iPad is really good for, what it's kind of not so good at.

所以到這個階段，我大概講完了 iPad 到底適合做什麼，又不太適合做什麼。

那接下來這一年剩下的時間呢？

I actually took on like a corporate job and so I was in the office a lot.

我其實接了一個公司的工作，所以大部分時間都在辦公室。
