Just saying that using or enabling it is not mandatory.

Also, as There are no 64GB devices that support Apple Intelligence. All supporting phones start at 128. 15pro, 16, 16pro, 16e

Turning it off reclaims about 3gigs, but yes, it still eats up about 4gigs for a feature you’re not using, which is not great.

Edit: apparently there might be an iPad or two. But all the phones are 128gig and up.

The iPad Air 5 both has a compatible M1 SoC and starts at 64GB of storage

Good point. That’s really weird that they’re allowing it to be installed on those iPads. Although selling a 64gig iPad was also a weird shitty config. I can’t imagine those things are fun to use. I feel bad for anyone that got duped into that.

Really depends how you use it, Orion/ Safari, YouTube, Netflix, jellyfin don’t require much

Why anyone chooses a desktop cpu for their iPad I don’t know
