A Mac in the iPad mini format - we have a 13", so make a really small Mac like 10" at least 😉
1. Apple hates downsizing the keyboard, and 12'' is minimum, so it can't
2. The crazy, I mean crazy overlap with not just the iPad pro but the iPad air
3. Yes, thermally Apple Silicon is better that Intel, but if the m3 and m2 can suffer in a fanless 13'' chassy, imagine the thermal throttling that would happen, like original MBA levels (and no, you can't fit a fan because it will take up too much space)
4. And if they fit a M1 the 13" which can still be found on the refurbished and some retailers is good enough
5. If they put a a17 pro the value proposition would be shifted, if it can run macos (I mean it's not as heavy as Windows but nowhere near some Linux distro levels)
6. For God's sake put macos on the iPad pro (or some kind of hybrid like tablet Samsung DeX) if it's gonna happen
7. If they want to make it thin, we'll you get a Mac iPhone 6
8. what's the point of macos if you can't multi-task other than some desktop applications
9. Would you like an even thinner butterfly to fit a meh battery
10. Oh the battery
11. At this rate bye bye headphone jack
And so much more. This is not a rage post but constructive criticism. I'll see your opinion down below.
