There is a level of hardware versatility with iPad that keeps bringing me back. It’s so awesome when you are working on something “work-ish” and then just detach the iPad from the keyboard, sit on the couch and catch up on some YouTube videos. Of course the drawing is huge as well. Love it. I am really hoping for the ability to extend the display on iPadOS 16.
how is that different from DEX from samsung? and samsung doesnt need high performance SoC
define "does more" The ipad even after a decade still doesnt offer full file management support
) something that was basic thing for any OS back 20 years agoBy the same token, after more than a decade there still isn't a Mac with a touchscreen for drawing, something even the first iPad offered. If you need Maya or FCP for work I'm not sure why you'd want to run them with only 5GB available RAM and no swap, or only 12GB RAM on the 1/2TB iPads.define "does more" The ipad even after a decade still doesnt offer full file management support
Hey if on my ipad can work in Maya or final cut pro, im all for it
Possibly, but I honestly don't remember anything multi-tasking that I my iPP didn't get. With iOS 13 and 14 mine was even closer to current specs so there would have been fewer hardware reasons why it wouldn't get an OS feature.
I think I’d be kind of annoyed too as there’s nothing wrong with my 2020 iPad Pro other than it’s a previous generation. I wouldn’t mind the upgrade to the M1 iPad Pro (Apple Store has a bonus trade in value of $10-$50 until May 31 - conveniently right before WWDC). I’d like to have a cellular version, but that’s not too important. At this point, might as well wait for the 2022 iPad Pro.
Same here. Hopefully they unveil new software that fixes the limitations of iPadOS and supports 2020 iPad Pros (which will probably mean the 2018 Pros get fully supported as well, since they have the same chip, save for a binned GPU core on the A12X compared to the A12Z), unless RAM makes a difference, but then again, they might as well give the 1TB 2018 Pro better software support because it has 6GB compared to the 4GB on the lower end 2018 iPad Pros, which at this point is going to be a bottleneck, and why I’d recommend getting a refurbished 2020 instead of a 2018 if people want an iPad Pro without spending almost MacBook Pro levels of money
exactly, you answered to your own question
exactly, you answer to your own question (ipad do less)...the mac can handle a lot more even more now that share the same architecture and a lot of ipadOS can run on the mac...ipad is still fragile and so limited
This argument has always been, and will forever be, pointless. The iPad was never intended to be a Mac replacement. Steve Jobs described it as middle device between the iPhone and MacBook. I expect my iPad Pro to powerfully do what I need in terms of art and music creation, music performance, PDF markup, photo editing and much more. It also can do typical "computer stuff" when I'm out and about, so that I don't have to carry my heavy 16" MBP.
Depends on what you use each for. I don't use Maya or FCP so the fact that they don't exist on the iPad is not the iPad doing less. It's a theoretical problem for me at best.
No swap memory and only ~70% of physical RAM is available to apps. So while the very expensive 1/2TB iPads can give apps ~12GB, all of the lower tier iPads have ~5GB RAM for any app. If Apple can't even universally entice developers to click a button to make their iOS apps run on Macs, how are they going to encourage pro desktop developers to target the latest 1/2TB iPad Pros that start at $1500 + keyboard/mouse.
Why don’t you speak to the devs if you want the apps? Nothing stops the iPad from running anything, if it’s practical on such a device.define "does more" The ipad even after a decade still doesnt offer full file management support
