Here’s a guide for quick decision making re: iPad purchase: * iPad is for kids/edu * iPad Air is for adults (most people) * iPad Pro is for adults who want to flex or who have a company credit card.
I was trying to think of a reason you'd need the full power of an M3 chip in an iPad...any ideas?

Though I agree most workflows aren't remotely capable software-wise compared to Mac counterparts.

I bought the iPad Pro in 2020 (13”, last on the A series of chips) and the screen is so much nicer than on any iPad I’ve ever used before. I was planning to buy a new one this year if there’s a notable release but OK with waiting another year. That said, with the Air having M3 and being available in 13”, I’ll have to take a long hard look at whether that screen is worth the extra money to me. I’d imagine that’ll rema…
I've been waiting and hoping for some third party to come along and clone the Smart Keyboard Folio. If they did, I'd repurchase an M4 iPad because other than the keyboard it was great.
I was just looking at the apple website to see if the Smart Keyboard Folio is available for the new iPads and it looks like that product line is gone for all iPads. Such a shame because it was a great product. I suspect it didn’t feel premium-enough for Apple management.
I owned multiple iPads and never found a compelling use case for them. I don't know why I keep buying them but they have been great computers for my parents so it's not like I buy to shelf them. Are there any use cases (apart from drawing maybe. I can't draw a stick figure if my life depended on it so that's not for me) for developers?
iPads are amazing for other things though:
- they're the best platform to read comics or mangas
- they're great to learn/play piano with dynamic sheets
- they're great for games (Balatro on iPad is top tier), and basically anything where tactile is good as an input control (GarageBand is nice to use on iPad)
- they're great for travel
You can do many things with an iPad, developing is not one of them.
I bought an iPad in 2020, its very practical the 5 times a year I use it.
