iPad Buying Guide for Students! 🌟 Is the iPad worth it? Hello everybody, I am back this week for a super cool video about if you should buy an iPad for your studies. I've compiled a list of reasons and disadvantages to help guide your decision. I've tailored this video around my personal university experience and how an iPad is super helpful, depending on your situation. But of course, you may enjoy taking handwritten notes on paper rather than a screen, or typing notes may be more time-efficient. Also, a disclaimer, I understand that buying an iPad is expensive, and depending on your financial situation, it may not be justifiable. Don't feel the need to have one just because people on the internet have one, I'm sure you'll do great without an iPad (an iPad won't necessarily correlate to better grades). However, if you are pondering about buying an iPad, I hope this guide helps you and steers you in the correct direction. If you don't feel like any of the reasons in the video fit you, then you'll likely be fine without one 😊 I use the iPad a lot for lecture slides and textbooks, but honestly, I find that the iPad itself for purely making notes isn't worth it 📝 FREE SkillShare Digital iPad Note-Taking Masterclass: https://skl.sh/3DZsT6D → learn how to take better, organized, and effective notes + FREE Etsy items (templates, stickers, fonts, and more!) ► ITEMS MENTIONED 📝 Paperlike, my fave screen protector: https://paperlike.com/emily → makes that slippery iPad screen feel more like writing on paper ⌨️ IQUNIX, my favorite mechanical keyboards: https://iqunix.store/emilystudying ► TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 intro 0:38 ✅PROS ✅ 0:55 digital textbooks 1:19 annotating lectures 2:03 saving paper → whitelines paper: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/808061886 → colored paper: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/934861011 → black paper: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/967325405 2:27 portable 3:12 digital agenda → reusable digital agenda: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/857965520/ 3:41 unlimited stationery 4:07 mini computer → iPad Pro Logitech Keyboard Case: https://amzn.to/2QFvFv3 → Mechanical Keyboard: https://amzn.to/3h9YREN 4:40 digital features 6:16 ❌CONS ❌ 6:25 expensive 6:37 hidden costs → apple pencil alternatives: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8s2oYNIJd4 → cheaper stylus that works: https://amzn.to/2T0JYLP (see video for more info) 7:21 extreme eye strain 👁👄👁 8:06 won't fully replace a computer 8:39 thoughts on getting an iPad 9:05 which iPad to get (comparison) → iPad Pro (2020): https://amzn.to/2S5b7MK → iPad 8th Generation: https://amzn.to/3xzm6yw → iPad Air 4th generation: https://amzn.to/3nyc7ol 9:55 outro 🛍️ Etsy Shop: https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/EmilyStudying → Buy my entire shop listings: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1023597768 💻 Free SkillShare Notetaking Class: https://skl.sh/3bly4AV → learn about notetaking, handwriting + FREE PDF access to all my notes 🎥 My YouTube Filming Equipment: https://kit.co/emilystudying/video-gear 🛍️ my fave Amazon items: https://www.amazon.com/shop/emilystudying ► CONNECT WITH ME 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/emilystudying 🎬 TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@emilystudying 🎵 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/user/ci4aw0o7n7jotnrcac2456fw4 💌 Business Email: emilystudying.business@gmail.com 🎵 Music by Kevatta - smoke rings - https://thmatc.co/?l=2158C64B * some of the links are affiliate, meaning I get a small commission at no cost to you (helps me continue to make videos for you) Thanks for watching today!
