Some even have hot swappable batteries by using internal batteries as a backup.

I bought a pro specifically for school. I can still use octave over SSH so I'm good with that.

So what can this device actually do other than browse the web, play shitty mobile games and take pictures? Because you could get something that does all of that for $100 or less. I literally do not understand why people would spend so much on a thing that is pretty much just for watching videos and reading some books.

So yeah, no arguments. Typical of an apple-shill.

>>60829738
>Why would I waste my time researching for you?
You won't because you know that such a thing doesn't exist. Not a single laptop that costs less than $1000 is worth using, especially not for design work with screens that doesn't even have 100% sRGB coverage.

>Your toy will never compare to an actual graphic tablet
Good thing nobody has claimed it does, dipshit, just that it's possible.

>>60829717
>The only thing that's different is that the screen is smaller on an iPad.
You could not be more incorrect. The Ipad's stylus pressure sensitivity doesn't meet even half the minimum requirement for devices my job uses.

It is not to any real-world used color standard accuracy. You cannot adjust the screen in any way to be so. The device does not have access to many industry leading softwares or formats.

This is a toy pretending to market itself to professionals. If you just want something to casual sketch on and browse the web, sure it's fine for that. But for that price tag?

>Do you think someone who can use an iPad for serious design work wouldn't be able to do it on an actual PC?
I really don't because only teens and college kids who don't know better would use this device for 'graphic design'. Not saying I wouldn't give them a shot to prove me wrong IE why you bring a demo reel in, but I've seen these kids with cute apple toys. It's always amusing trying to explain to them why their work quality is complete shit and listening to them defend their toys. Guess who we don't hire?

ipads are PC's idiot

a personal computer is anything that isnt a server and is owned by you

PC's arent windows

I'm not sure if there is a device in the $1000 range for serious graphic design but the price should not be a concern for your job as you A) should not be the one paying for it and B) should be using the ideal tool for your work. An Ipad is not an acceptable alternative. The fact you think it is or would even suggest it is possible is laughable.

It was acceptable when the macbook was one of the only laptops with a solid battery life. Like 8 years ago. Apple is now marketed as a fashion accessory, not a tool. You kids really don't belong on this board if you can't understand that.

Name one point that is factually incorrect - I know you can't but it'll be amusing to watch you try. It's a nice tablet. But that's all it is, a tablet. You use it to browse the web, watch videos and maybe as a schedule organizer. It is not a creative design tool, it is not a productivity tool, it is absolutely inferior in most every regard for any form of actual work.

What does that have to do with a windows device? I know reading comprehension is hard man but come on.

>In this shithole of board it's always stop liking what I don't like
I don't really have a problem with ipads, I'm not sure why you're feeling so ass blasted. It's just not a graphic design tool and has an abundance of oddly misplaced features.

>it's pointless for me to write better quality post
Or you simply lack the ability and reading comprehension skills to do so, which I'm betting is far more likely.

>>60830315
>it's not for graphic design
Just because you're too shit at your job to adapt to a different workflow doesn't mean everyone else is. Of course nobody is going to use it in offices while sitting at your desk, nobody has claimed that aside from you. It's for sketching down ideas on the go.

>>60830390

You forgot the evidence/example. Just like in most of your claims.

OP started thread with "how can laptops even compete."

>>60830371
>Still it seems like a cool device to pocket and sketch on the go.

On that - I completely agree. Pretty much only point I was trying to make before some of the shills lost their shit. It's a pretty nice device but it's not up to spec for most actual design work.

>>60830386
>t's not for you to decide what can be used or not for graphic design.
You're right - Because no one in the design industry is stupid enough to implement inefficient over priced tools as a standard or even an alternative. Which is pretty much my point, glad you understand.

Anyways, specs look nice though I'm a bit confused as to the purpose of 120hz display on a tablet. Anyone care to comment on how we'd even utilize this? And no I do not play video games, so if that's the only reason... (does ipad even have games worth playing? let alone ones that arnt frame capped?)

He was right. By the mid-90s the desktop computer market was almost totally dominated by Wintel clones. Most of the original home computer companies like Commodore and Atari were crushed, and Apple also faced oblivion just before they bought NeXT and brought back Jobs.

Instead of fighting Microsoft, he settled a years-long lawsuit against them for stealing QuickTime code, in exchange for securing Office on the Mac. Then he worked on returning Apple to health by drastically slimming down its product line and finally making the long-awaited next-generation Mac OS a reality based on NeXTSTEP.

Ultimately, Apple prevailed by blazing its own trail in mobile, while Microsoft rested on its desktop laurels and was subsequently blindsided by the iPhone.

>>60853474

It can remote into a cheap networked PC when necessary in order to do so, which is how I handle it. It’s really the best of both worlds: all the advantages of the iPad when I need those, all the advantages of nearly-infinite stationary computing power when I need those.

>>60850992

>pen support for a pen you’ll use as a stylus outside of 2 apps

Procreate, Tayasui Sketches, Notability, Goodnotes, Markup via Photos. Basically anything that can benefit from the ability to draw, sketch, paint, handwrite, or sign does.

>fingerprint scanner so applel can steal your biometrics

Not even close. Fingerprint data is stored locally in the Secure Enclave. Apple never sees it.

>ipad 4th generation isn’t supported by iOS 11 and was released in 2012

Only because of iOS 11 dropping support for 32-bit.

Absolutely no evidence of that, you’re talking out your ass.

>>60858800
>Oh yeah, you're the idiot
No.
Anyway you now admit that it's a worse tool. Sure, a pro can use worse tools, but why should he.
In any case it only matters to a small percentage of people. If you just want a shinier toy for web browsing it's not a bad choice, though for that almost any tool will do.
As I wrote before the target are enthusiasts.

>>60858875
And why do you think your use case is the only pro use case? The iPad Pro is a hundred times better for people like photographers with the stylus, 4:3 aspect ratio and one of the best screens on a mobile device? Are they not pros?

>>60859087
>>60859087
Still and example when you use stylus when it's an inferior device for that.
There may be some case where it's the best device, but I doubt it.
It's good for the money not best and pros go for best.

>>60859123
>>60859087
And I don't really understand the use of that to be honest.
Do you have to edit on the move with something that is slower?
Are you a photographer or is it hypothetical?

>>60859123
So what mobile device would be better for photography? The only alternative is the Surface that doesn't have as wide of a color gamut screen, isn't 120Hz and has much shittier battery life. There are people who use Wacom tablets on desktops to edit photos, why wouldn't a stylus be the best device for that?

>>60859187
As posted already not the best input device for stylus.
Anyway see >>60859172 and what about some powerful laptops? Some have comparable screens (obviously cost more than a tablet).
Maybe it's good if you are not provided any equipment and are starting out so you can't buy anything better.

>>60859172
>Slower
The A10X chip performs basically on par with Intels shitty low voltage m3 and core i5 chips, you have to get at least an i7 to outperform it. And yes, lots of people need to edit photos on the go, photographers travel constantly.

>>60859270
But then they have baggage so they can fit a laptop in there.
>The A10X chip performs basically on par with Intels shitty low voltage m3 and core i5 chips, you have to get at least an i7 to outperform it.
Yes, as I wrote coupled with a good or better screen it would cost more.

>>60859250
>>60859336
4K laptop screens are only higher resolution and bigger size, they don't have comparable color gamut, brightness, refresh rate and 16:9 is a shit aspect ratio for productivity, 4:3 is much better. They're also much more clunky to carry and use on the go when you need to carry a bunch of camera gear and they're much more inconvenient to use out in the field. There's absolutely no reason to get a laptop unless you want to carry more shit with you and you're only going to edit pictures in your hotel room since a touchpad is borderline unusable so you need a mouse as well.

>>60859469
>bulky
Yes, but you can get better input, faster device and at least comparable screen.

>>60859270
> on par with m3 and i5
dude, the A10 is already on par with mobile dual core i7's, the A10X is 30% faster, so we can asume is much faster than a dual core i7, it's almost on a quad-core level.

>>60826421
> what laptop can even compete?
most of them

>>60859514

You heard the man, bulk doesn’t matter! Let’s all carry around 15-pound 21” laptops!

And it’s arguable that you can get better input. You’d have to go to a lot of trouble to get pen input better than what’s on the iPad Pro, and even then, software support for the pen wouldn’t be as robust. Re: comparable screen,

you don't use a 4:3 screen to produce actual content. doing any form of research would reveal that the transition away from 4:3 content happened shortly after the turn of the century.

do you think majority of that is used to consume or produce content? I'd say most people watch yify movies in 16:9, people in tpg still sperg out on 16:9 aspect ratio every day
>doesn't surprise me though coming from a community that jerks off to leading people to believe they know more than they actually do.
how is usability of aspect ratio related to apple? if wacom produced something similar but clunkier looking plastic shit with similar price range I'd buy that to draw on but for my suprise apple was the cheapest one to get

also if 16:9 was great to produce content on ms surface wouldn't go for 3:2 aspect ratio, it just feels cramped if you actually do anything and compare.
