I love my new iPad, it has been a joy, and has become a big part of my workflow and working day.
Don't get me wrong, despite what Apple tells you, most people who use tech for working cannot replace their PC with an iPad, that is just nonsense, there are too many limiting factors.
In my world, it fits in very nicely in places where I would generally get my laptop out for things like short emails, quick browsing, messaging, access to all your online storage points, document viewing, making small mods on documents and similar stuff. It is excellent for showing other folks such mods and documents when in a meeting too, as you just pass it around the room.
There are a few super bonuses too, like being able to write and make notes on stuff, you need a pen of course, but this was something I wanted from my iPad so bought one at the same time. You can also get all kinds of wonderfully crafted apps such as the new AR Apps, which work magnificently on these iPads. The screen is superb too, so watching a video and viewing images is top-notch. The only negative is that it has only two speakers and not four, though the sound is rather good even with just two.
Overall it can take a bit of work to get the best from it, such as with the pen work, which is super, by the way, learning how to use the new features such as using a mouse, and a few other things, all of which are awesome if a bit quirky at first. It is a fantastic bit of kit that has made significant strides towards being more work-oriented, and with a keyboard and mouse/pen, it really can fill a lot of spaces in your digital life.
For me, it bridges a gap between my main PC, from where I do most of my work that requires a lot of input and screen space and having to take my laptop out or even take it along to meetings and gatherings and on top of that, I get a decent iPad without the Pro price.
Well worth considering.
