![]() IPad already perfectly supports laptop input mechanism with mouse and keyboard. The difference is software and Apple dragging their feet wanting people to own 2 separate devices that have 90% overlap for MOST people for no real justifiable reason anymore. That's it - they're almost identical under the hood. And now with M1, the only tangible difference between it and a Macbook at this point is the touch screen and the OS. There are people want a powerful laptop with macOS 10% of time, that can convert to a tablet 90% of time, that doesn't have a shit tablet OS/UI.Īnd as someone who's been using an iPad Pro with a Magic Keyboard since launch, it absolutely IS a laptop. That's the definition of greed.īecause the Surface Pro/Surface Book experience (aside from the whole Windows 10 thing) is actually quite fantastic. Even though it was the same app just blown up. Even if the app was literally the same thing on both devices. It's as stupid as when the iPad first came out and devs would charge different prices for iPhone and iPad versions separately even though iOS could support apps that work on both just because they could. Maybe then we'll eventually get a sort of merging, or at least blurring of the lines between desktop OS and tablet OS. Make iPad OS more approachable as a full computer OS and convince App devs to take that risk. Or, in many cases, money because they still want people to spend large amounts of money on their desktop versions. They don't want to put full versions of their important apps on them because they still see them as a device. The iPad could easily be a powerful everyday computer.īut App devs don't want to commit. The new iPad Pros show that a tablet can be as powerful as a computer and can be used like a computer. With the end goal being that it would eventually become what a computer is. Click to shrink.Apple created the iPad to be "the computer reimagined".
