OLED iPad still useless unless they allow side loading. It’s an oversized iPhone.
Ipads will always be useless. Esp the pricier pro ones. Better to get cheaper macbooks like m1 air.
Students would like to have a word…
I can tell you from personal experience that you’re blatantly wrong. They are found in droves on college and university campuses as they are super versatile. From writing to storing every textbook you’d need all in one slab of metal and glass.
I got my iPad Pro 1st year and haven’t looked back. 90% of textbooks I have needed I could get digital and writing on PDFs for lectures is essential for my learning.
Look, they may serve no use for you, but don’t parade yourself into thinking they must then serve no purpose.
And on the argument of “oh it’s just a big iPhone” is laughable these days.
Apple is of course bumping up HARDWARE Specs to increase Price all the while ignoring the biggest Value-Added = Software/OS which most users would benefit from. Agree it's primarily aimed at higher prices and price laddering.
