   Why does this conversation happen so much for the iPads but not the Macs 😭😭😭 I use the iPad Pro as a digital art tool academically and personally and I’d much rather get that over a Wacom tablet for near twice the cost while having much less versatility as a standalone device

   If it’s not something you really need to make use of, you don’t need to get it! An air or even baseline iPad will more than do the trick

   This is the exact same kind of conversation as the MacBooks but the use cases are different, but because the MacBook use cases align further with most reviewers, the conversation isn’t nearly as drawn (ha) out as it is here

   It really isn’t that complicated (OS/software aside which, to be clear, can use improvements that benefit everyone but for the audience the Pros are clearly targeting, they still get by in their workflows very well) I just wish this was more understood so we could collectively focus on actual pain points rather than getting tripped up on what these things are supposed to do and for who LOL

   Honestly, Apple has too many products competing for space right now. For example, the iPad Mini competes with the top model iPhones, the iPad Pro competes with the MacBook Air, and the iPad Air and regular iPad are in a weird limbo state too. They need some cleanup.

   Conveniently inconvenient.

   I think many reviewers underestimate the power of the value of the ‘premium’-ness of iPad Pro. I know people who can barely afford one decide to finance an iPad Pro to watch Netflix and YouTube simply because it is the most premium option, and would signal their financial prowess. The iPad Pro is a luxury product, almost like a Veblen good, for many less technically inclined groups.

   I am one of the people that can actually get a lot of use out of the new iPad Pro M4 since I am an artist. Other than artists that will sketch a lot on the iPad Pro M4 I am not sure who would jump at spending $2500 with Magic Keyboard on it. It doesn’t do what a Macbook does as well as the Macbook though it could if Apple were to make a MacOS/iPadOS hybrid OS for it. I still use my iPad Pro 2018 with Apple Pencil 2 and am doing fine so will take my time on deciding. I also use the Surface Pro 8 for all that a Laptop could do though the sketching is not as nice as the iPad Pro. The big thing with sketching on the iPad Pro is the ability to use a Rock-Paper-Pencil matte screen which makes it a dream to sketch on compare to drawing on glass which I don’t like. I have not found a magnetic matte screen for the Surface Pro like Rock-Paper-Pencil so I sketch more on my iPad Pro. If there was a Rock-Paper-Pencil for the Surface Pro I make go that direction (Surface Pro 11 with OLED) and just skip iPad Pro in the future.

   Apple is going to release a press release a few years from now saying the iPad lives on and discontinue it like the iPod

   I bought the iPad Pro 13inch 1TB. Totally overkill but with 2 years same as cash financing and free Apple Care plus for those 2 years, it was worth it to splurge. This is my first iPad Pro, i’ve been rocking the mini 5th gen for a long time but I wanted something that I could write notes, stay organized, and be creative on the go. And the screen was a main selling point. If there was an 120hz oled option on the Air, I’d probably get that instead.

   I don’t really get why people are complaining that Apple has made a device that has so much overhead. They could have very easily forced 2018 users to upgrade by updating iOS to make it slug with an A1 chip. I know we’ve been conditioned for the last 17 years to buy a new device every year or two, but tech has finally got to the point where I can buy something nice and know it won’t be obsolete for at least 5 years.

   Honestly, at this point, this is just Apple flexing. The iPad honestly is in a class of its own. It is not a computer computer, but still has some functionality but is limited to the App Store. However, I have an iPad Pro 3rd generation 11 inch with the M1 and me personally I do not push this thing hardly at all to what it’s capable of doing. If anything I would love to see the new processing power would be used to help supplement battery usage, and Apple putting in a better battery for better battery life. I remember the days that they would brag that the standby time was 30 days long. It would be really cool to say “guess what my iPad can literally be on a single charge 20+ hours”. That is an iPad that I want and I would definitely upgrade in a heartbeat. And it was the exact reason why I also bought an M1 MacBook Air back in late 2020 and still use that laptop to this day. It is a good laptop.

   I’ve been using mine for note taking, drawing in procreate, YouTube, streaming vids, etc. but I never had an iPad Pro before— so I wasn’t invested in the other ecosystem before this pro— so it was easier for me to make the decision. Just my situation anyway. 🙂

    I ended up returning my M4 ipad Pro. I LOVED the display but it just wasnt worth 1k to me. Bummer. I got a Samsung Tab S9 FE open box from best buy for 300 bucks. The screen isnt as nice but its less than a third of the cost and does what I need. Oh well…
