Got myself the new iPad mini!

recently purchased the new ipad mini in purple!

i used to have the ipad pro 12.9” (2017) and iPad pro 11” (2021), both have 512gb. I’m an artist and I draw a lot! I got myself a portable SSD in 512gb as well to backup my files.

I have always wanted the mini and finally they released 512gb storage! I love the purple, even though i wish they have it in pink 😭

i’m still adjusting myself with the smaller screen size to draw :) so far i’m enjoying it. However i noticed the battery runs down faster (compared to pro 11 of course), and it gets so hot when i have more layers created on procreate.

my procreate crashes once and i lost my artline layers 😢 it was quite traumatic, but thankfully procreate has timelapse video so i reuse it and redraw the artline :’)

I will be mainly using the mini for drawing and digital journal.

I haven’t brought it outside with me yet, so i’m gonna share more once i did.

I have few concerns especially the battery part, i’m not the type who likes to bring out the charger adaptor and cable around. but is it recommended to do so?

thank you for taking your time to read my post!
