Is the iPad pro-ready? Nino wonders whether iOS and iPadOS are ready for professional use, focusing on the new iPad Pro with Apple’s M4 chip and its performance with Final Cut Pro for iPad. Despite the iPad Pro’s impressive hardware, such as its excellent OLED screen and innovative wireless connectivity for live streaming from iPhones, iPadOS’s limitations still hinder its full potential for professional workflows.

The iPad Pro’s screen quality is the best Nino has seen, and he emphasizes its bright OLED display. However, he pointed out significant software limitations, like the absence of background processes and a restricted file system, which prevent the device from fully supporting professional editing and multitasking.

Nino also reviews industry updates, including the DaVinci Resolve 19 public beta. This update features live sync from cameras, allowing editors to work on footage while it’s being recorded, thus streamlining workflows using Blackmagic Cloud.
