As a long time Apple tablet user (since the iPad 2), I’m still longing for the day when the iPad really IS a computer and I can leave the house with just my iPad instead of a laptop. Sadly, Apple seem to have very little interest in making the changes required to make this a reality. Instead they seem more concerned with trying to force a change in perception of what actually constitutes a computer. Just look how long it took them to support a mouse/trackpad, and even now it’s still limited. “Should we put things like USB ports and an OS with integrated file support on our next iPad? No, let’s just try and convince people they don’t do things to make it a real computer…“ 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@Kefford666]

I look forward to the day they add multi-user support. Face ID only works for one person like it’s a big iPhone. But iMacs and MacBooks let multiple people sign in with their fingerprints or passwords.

[@sonofage]

if they do this, it could spell the end of their MacBook lineup, so I doubt they'll ever really do this. The more likely ones to do it is probably on Android's side, and if it gains some traction, Apple will take it and say they did it first, as per the norm, but I could be wrong. I completely forgot about the file system access on the iPad/iPhone. Most useless file system I've ever used, but i guess if you're just saving your pictures, it's easier to do? IDK, it seems Apple doesn't trust their fanbase to figure things out whereas, Windows/Android/Linux let's you be the judge. Linux, even more so, to say the least, haha. Even as an Admin for Apple Business Management, you're not in full control without Apple allowing it , EVEN though you purchase the devices from them. it's strange to me. from a system admin's perspective, i prefer Windows in this case but i also dislike Azure's sudden control UI changes on a whim. Thanks Microsoft. Anyway, Why doesn't Apple give more access to their file system on their mobile devices? I was about to buy an s7 Tab (samsung) but decided against it after i realize that for now, i'm mostly stuck at home and i won't require to go out as much as i once did but while not all apps are build for the tablet experience on Android, at least, the file system is open to me, without root nor some complex means of usage and it's almost like , what i can think can be done on Android, potentially already exists on it. I'm not advocating for using Android's tablet Vs Apple's. I know that ship has sailed for most people and i personally don't care enough to argue but if Apple allowed some extra stuff, without root -- then perhaps i'll give them a chance in the tablet space.... But i'm not the target demographic i guess.

as someone that has been on a 2018 ipad pro as their main computer for almost two years, after the release of the magic keyboard and ipad os 13.4 or whatever it was, yeah, it is 100% a computer. it’s basically the perfect laptop replacement for 90% of people out there that just need a nice screen for content, good touch and intuitive UIs, can take advantage of apple’s continuity and ecosystem and need a decent keyboard and great trackpad for productivity on the go, this thing will write emails, work on your spreadsheets, if you are a creative profesional the pencil is a great alternative for a wacom and way cheaper than their all-in-ones, it is still an ipad with great speakers, great screen and great performance, yes, even the 2018 model is still flawless and why i’m not switching to the 2021 one at all. it is undoubtedly a learning curve to get used to ipad os, and it is not perfect in any way yet, i still need to sit on my desktop every couple of weeks for real cad and that one piece of software i need for work, and the Files app is useable but _not good,_ not even remotely as useable as good old Finder. Is the iPad Pro a real PRO tool for professionals? Not really, you can do a lot with it on the go but really isn’t the 16in do-it-all, weights-a-metric-fuckton, last-three-hours-on-battery, window desktop replacement people think when they think of “professional machine”, but for literally everyone else?

The normal peak brightness is still 600nits, the same as the previous model. But in HDR (and only in HDR) it can reach 1000nits sustained brightness on the whole screen and 1600nits peak in bright details. Apple really did a lot to mislead with the marketing on their website, you can only find the 600nits spec in their technical specifications and even there it is confusing written.

“iPad is a computer now...” I’m afraid I don’t know of any consumer computers with no sideloading.

[@osswriter]

Dave .. Dave? I’m afraid I can’t let you do that.

[@Charlesb88]

There is nothing in the definition of a consumer computer that requires side loading be an option. In the old days you never saw locked down computers due to the fact that early home/micro/personal computers couldn’t be locked down they way the iPad is even if the manufacturer had wanted too. This also led to consumer expecting to have lots of freedom on what they could run on their PC/Micro systems. If was only after the rise of malware and totally crappy software that the idea of a more locked down systems became something consumer would be more tolerant of. The total flood of crap games on the Atari 2600 system helped usher in the video game collapse of 1983. Nintendo responded to this by insisting that their NES console by locked down so that only Nintendo approved game cartridges could be run on the NES. So if you take a broad definition of computer then the Nintendo NES and Sega Genesis/Megadrive and such qualify as “computers” without side-loading. Side loading on a computer is common thing but I never seen it specified as a requirement for calling it a computer, just something few thought to prevent until Apple decided to do so on their iPhone and later iPad as a malware and crap ware prevention method.

[@coolbuddyshivam]

@@Charlesb88 PC is different from computers. You need side loading for a thing to be called a PC. There is nothing personal about vendor locking. You can't even do whatever you want with device you paid for, in case you get banned you lose all softwares and media you paid for. I fail to understand why does people associate authoritarian rule with security. GNU linux first started with app repository which was the prototype for modern app store, there are hardly any malwares and crapware. Manufacturers blocked side loading for taxing third party developers for profiting off their flock of sheep and for more control on devices. Security was not the main priority. You can easily gain that with decentralisation and open source with other methods as well.

[@Charlesb88]

@@coolbuddyshivam PC stands for Personal Computer meaning any computer designed to be used by one person at a time as apposed to a mainframe, time-shared computer, or Server. Now if You mean IBM-compatible PC or Wintel PC then yes, by that definition you’d expect side-loading to be a thing but even then it’s not always an option such as with Windows 10 with S Mode turned on so MS has thrown a wrench in your definition PC there too. When I used the term PC, I just meant any Personal Computer regardless of CPU or OS which includes tablets, smart phones, old Power PC Macintosh’s, 80s Microcomputers like the C64 or Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Regardless, Whether it’s locked down or not isn’t in any definition of computer I could find, personal or not. So there is nothing stopping the iPad from being classified as a computer even if it’s not one you might want to use for certain or any tasks.

Maybe if they had a server mode you could just “turn on” then it would be easier. But when they do that, they should also add better hardware features, especially for videos. These things do perfectly for Art and graphics design, but not videos all that much. You can still edit…. But it’s not as great as a MacBook.

You damn CAN use the power. Stop making sh*t up that only Mac apps are "pro apps" or whatever. There ARE many pro apps on the iPad that can use the power. The iPad is simply not a Mac. If you want to draw and design stuff, the iPad will always be a better "Pro" machine than the Mac.

@@Raja995mh33 NAME ONE PRO APP ON THE IPAD!!!!! MACS with MACOS are COMPUTERS, iPads with an iPHONE OS are NOT computers. iOS is a wall gardened environment meaning you can NOT install any app you want from anywhere else you want, but only through ONE App Store controlled by Apple. FACT. IF Apple tried to lock down MacOS like iOS where you have to get EVERYTHING from one single App Store their computer business would go down the toilet or they would be hit with anti-trust. I dare you try and use an iPad Pro with iOS the way it is for SEVERAL MONTHS without having to rely on a Mac/Windows PC as your ONLY computer. You will find out very quickly and painfully it is NOT a computer, when Apple has more control over how you use the iPad Pro than you do - you have to SIDELOAD applications that you want because Apple doesn’t allow emulation and virtualization on iOS.

@@Raja995mh33 Apps are restrictive to 5GB of ram on all the new iPads including the 16GB RAM iPad PRo. IPadOS restricts you from using the iPads power, as well as Apple’s App Store policies.

@@AdmiralBison Dude 5GB is a hell lot of RAM PER App! Apple is not limiting the RAM to 5GB for all apps. It's the limit for ONE app. And I'm using the iPad Pro for over 2 years by now. And I do see some limitations here and there. But you have these kind of limitations on EVERY OS. But I'm happy with the walled garden. Way happier than with an open OS where everyone can throw its trash on. And sorry dude but your last sentence is pure bullshit, not Apples marketing. For me any many others, iPads already have replaced a computer or Laptop. This has nothing to do with some marketing. People just use the iPad for what its meant to be used and that's NOT to be a damn Mac. People are buying iPads because they want an iPad and not a Mac. Want a Mac? Go and get one.

I think if this happened I would get really excited. I’m kind of hoping that iPad OS adapts more of the functionality of MacOS, but I also understand why Apple keeps the product lines segmented. There’s just no reason for it anymore though. Why not let the iPad have a little more freedom? (Though if you watched the Apple vs Epic testimony apparently MacOS is “dangerous”)

I have an issue with the headline of this video as the definition of a computer we have always used would include smart phones and tablets like the iPad even if some users may not have or still don’t considered usable enough to qualify as a desktop computer replacement. The Palm, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile/CE based phones and PDA’s and such all qualified as computers and even programmable calculators qualify. Whether they any of them was a computers that meet or met your needs or meets your needs today doesn’t disqualify them as computers.

@@Raja995mh33 I'm not even asking much. Just the ability to even run MacOS apps, like how MacOS can run IpadOS or iOS apps now, and also put in touch screen on Macbook. That's all. MacOS is actually very touch-usable without modification, and the icon is big enough for touching. On the Ipad side, you can use keyboard and mouse now too. On the hardware side, the hinge on Macbook is the best-of-its-class which will make touching it feels very natural and sturdy. Don't even need 360 degree hinge, just having a touch input option is good enough.

As someone who uses both daily. I don't want this, and neither do you if you actually think about it. They're both made for very different input methods as is ALL the software for them. There's only so much you can do to make one friendly to both, you're still going to have to rely entirely on 3rd parties to make something that doesn't suck or end up as a compromise that ends up being shit on both. Like Windows 8 was. They decided from day one NOT to do this, and for their touch optimised OS to be entirely separate from their mouse/trackpad and keyboard optimised one.

@@TalesOfWar as someone that only can afford 1 device, having both input seems better. Apple can learn from windows migration from pointers to touch, seems less hurdle
