Yeah. No way I'm going to buy a MacBook without a tandem oled screen.

iPad Pro OLED on M4 iPad Pro is TOO Good… Now I’m $3000 Poorer

I love my Macbook Pro, really, the last 14 and 16" are the best computer I ever owned.
The screen on them is also pretty good but the blooming is really hard to ignore on HDR content when the contrast is pretty strong..
But watching HDR content on my iPad Pro M4 is a blast. This screen is just so insanely good I watch less and less content on my macbook in favor of the iPad.
I have a Samsung qn95ba for my main tv so all sorted there but my pc monitor..... it's an IPS panel and when I plug my iPad in (and it's next to the monitor) it really shows my monitor up!! The only thing stopping me upgrading my monitor is that I don't any new monitor will compare to the iPad right now.
Until you have social circles or start caring how you appear to others.
the vision pro is not a public device. It’s something you use at home, who gives a **** what you look like? It’s not like it even looks bad. People walk around now with those big goofy headphones in the age of AirPods
Some people care about sound quality. AirPods are nowhere near where some other headphones are. And yes, size doesn't really matter.

We're talking past each other. There's the display panel and then there's the technology supporting the viewing experience on that display panel. Those are different things. If you watched a movie streaming with much motion on a tandem OLED screen versus a Sony or Samsung QD-OLED, even in a bright room, the TVs will win hands-down, despite being ~300 nits full screen brightness versus ~1000 nits on the iPad.
Ultimately I guess this is just semantics around the word "advanced" and what exactly we're referring to when we apply that adjective. And you really can't compare TVs to mobile devices here. They're optimized for different stuff. But I'm the one who raised all this to begin with, so that's on me.

Yes definitely agree. Ultimately if you have a choice to watch movies etc on a Large OLED TV or a iPad Pro 11/13 screen, your more likely going to watch it on the OLED TV as its bigger and even more so if watching with friends/family.
It’s not a public device nor one for people who have social circles or family or visitors or anything like that. If you’re a bachelor it might be interesting for the novelty.
He also bought a new TV because the new screen of the iPad Pro made his TV look bad.
I was dual-screening football and WNBA yesterday and the M4 iPad Pro 11" screen was STUNNING. I was totally blown away by its clarity .... it really made me hate my 65" Sammy QLED TV from 2021. 😂😂😂
