If it had no camera bump, I'd be seriously tempted. Seriously tempted to save money.

However, I want 16 GB of RAM. The M5 generation could support 32 GB, and if Apple wants to, they can offer 64 GB, but that would mean a unique SoC and logic board arrangement for it, imo. Compromises. Holding the line at 16 GB RAM. Wish it could be more.

I thought the M3 was no longer being manufactured, it was just stop-gap version with significant limitations in manufacturing. 

Don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

Really, it's 99% tracking, ads, lies, misinformation, disinformation, propaganda, and trolling. And more and more, it's going to be AI slop. Your bog standard Internet article in terms of memory and CPU footprint is 99% ad and tracking load, 0.9% words and images providing article pad, and 0.09% is the 10 to 20 words that is the actual information, which more often then not is wrong.

This draws the iPad Air ever closer to the iPad Pro. Hard for customers to opt for the iPad Pro imo. They have to really want the display (OLED, nanotexture), 16 GB RAM, and Face ID. More than ever, I think the iPad Pro should have larger display sizes, including different aspect ratios, such as a 11.5" 5:4 and a 13.7". Make the iPP models visibly different from the iPA models.

So much better than iFixit's videos, imo. Now, need them to post some good pictures of the components.

You like impersonal computer voices and annoying background music?  🤷

Yes. It’s so much better than iFixit’s running commentary during their teardowns. Not interested in their commentary at all. Design for repairability could be interesting to listen to, but iFixit’s commentary? It’s juvenile. It’s been like that for every Apple teardown for what seems like 5 years now.
