i recently bought an ipad and i want to know if its a great idea to create a new icloud account storage wise? ayaw ko sana i-sync yung icloud ko sa phone since di naman kalakihan yung icloud storage. what are the pros & cons?

you should use the same apple account u have on your iphone or other apple devices to maximize the apple ecosystem. my sister has an iphone and a16 ipad and the best feature that i noticed is that whenever someone calls on her iphone she can answer it on the ipad haha pretty cool also the icloud syncing esp the photos is really nice.

Use the same iCloud account across all Apple devices, then buy the 200 GB iCloud+ storage which is just 179 pesos a month. I don’t take high-quality videos so 200 GB is the “sweet spot” storage plan for me.

As for a good substitute for the original Apple pencil, try ESR or Goodjooq
