As an old dual-wielding iPad and Android tablet user for more than 8 years, I have used more than a dozen iPads and Huawei and other Android tablets. The current gap between Android tablets and iPads is mainly due to processor performance and learning ecology.
iPad has the advantage of excellent performance and good ecology
Take the iPad 2021, which starts at 2,499 yuan. As an entry-level iPad, it is indeed outstanding in terms of performance at the same price.
The A13 processor equipped in iPad 2021 is more powerful than the Snapdragon 870 or Snapdragon 888 at the same price on the market.
is more durable and has a longer service life than Android tablets.
iPad OS has a better study and note-taking ecology
ipad OS brings better note-taking software than Android tablets of the same price, such as the note-taking software notability and the drawing software procreate that I bought before.
notability is indeed much better for taking notes than Cloud Notes and Xiangdao in Android. For example, if I buy an iPad Pro+ second-generation pen and put a paper-like film on it, it can provide a paper-like writing effect.
also supports importing PPT into notabiliy. You can annotate while listening to the class. You can also record simultaneously when taking notes. When played back, the recording status at that time will be displayed.
and procreate is really good for drawing.
The note-taking package is indeed the strength of the iPad system, but the biggest criticism of this entry-level iPad is the screen. It uses a non-fully bonded screen and is paired with a first-generation pen. Note-taking is a bit reflective and the sound is loud. The biggest problem of iPad 2021 The screen is just bad, but it is positioned as an entry-level tablet, priced at 2,499 yuan, and and Apple will not increase the configuration.
Therefore, in the low-end tablet market, if there is not much demand for creative writing, note-taking, and drawing, then you can consider replacing the Huawei matepad 11 of the iPad 2021.
But in the high-end market, the gap between iPads and Android tablets is even greater. Just one processor can instantly kill many Android tablets.
Now the brand new iPad air 5 processor is directly replaced with M1, and the memory is doubled to 8G, which directly puts Android tablets out of reach.
As can be seen from the performance ranking produced by the professional Geek Bay below, the performance score of the M1 processor is directly close to 260, which is really too powerful.

In addition, high-end tablets such as iPad Pro 2021 have higher screen brightness and better display effects. The pro 12.9-inch also supports mini-LED, which can alleviate the white light overflow when ordinary LCD screens display black pictures, and the overall picture contrast is higher.
For high-end tablets, I think I recommend iPad Air 5 or iPad Pro 2021 more. Android tablets are indeed incomparable.
and the low-end price is 2,000 yuan. You can choose according to your own needs. There is no need to buy an iPad. If you want rich learning resources, the education center recommends Huawei matepad 10.4. For note-taking cost performance, you can consider Huawei matepad 11.
For taking more notes, which has high performance requirements and low screen requirements, I recommend iPad 2021.
If you don’t study and just use it to watch dramas and entertain, then Xiaomi Pad 5, Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad, and Oppo Pad are all fine, you can choose whatever you want.
