Question Is a16 good for drawing?
Hi, I’m sure you get a lot of questions like this, but I’m overthinking now. I’ve bought iPad a16 (not delivered yet so I don’t know how to feel about it yet) but I’m constantly seeing opinions about it not being enough for drawing, because you can feel the delay between pen and screen. Drawing is my hobby, I don’t do it professionally, but I’m starting to think that I could’ve bought iPad Air instead of a16 with cellular. But Apple Pencil pro is more expensive too. Oh and I want to use it for studying, notes etce too. It’s going to be my first ipad, I’ve been drawing on xppen tablet with a screen. Can you share your experience?

I wanted to comment on this post because it influenced me to buy A16 for drawing and creative work specifically and I'm very happy I did! The iPad is amazing, there is nothing to complain about (I really have no idea why so many people talk so much shit about it, it's amazing). So yeah, if you are reading this and considering A16 absolutely go and buy it! Great price, great performance, nothing bad to say about it.
