In 2007 Steve Jobs declared that the iPhone runs off OS X. Therefore any iOS device since is running a variation of OS X already. They are jut better optimised for the touch screen experience. In a way, Steve Jobs was and is right. Having so many different options for a touch screen device (like having a mouse and keyboard with a trackpad) is very jarring experience. This is especially of users just want to get basics done. For coding and programming, a PC or a laptop is still the best option admittedly. End of comment. Lol!

What most commenters here don't seem to get is that they aren't the who the iPad-as-a-computer-replacement is aimed at. For the average user, the iPad is most definitely fine as a replacement for a computer. For most people, they use their computer for web surfing, email and possibly basic word processing and spreadsheet uses. And the iPad is perfect for that. Especially since it's easier to use than something like a Surface. If you use Photoshop or are a big gamer, then you AREN"T WHO THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT.

My problem is, that what you said so far I can easily do with my 200 £ Toshiba Chromebook 2. I`m not saying its the same level, cause it`s not -that`s why I`m watching the video. But the question is if the difference in performance worth the difference in prize.

@highdough2712

Dana880313 The question is not, is an iPad better or equal to a cheap PC. This is what people don't seem to get. There are things that a PC can do that an iPad can't, but those are generally things the average user doesn't do. Yes, you can use a Chromebook for less money, but there are quite a number of reasons to choose an iPad over a Chromebook. Chromebooks are made to be used online, meaning you're really limited in what you can do if you don't have an internet connection. They're much more cheaply made, which means you're likely to spend more money outside of the first, initial purchase. iOS is also a much nicer OS than Chrome's, and you're getting a touchscreen, as well, which makes an iPad more versatile. Performance-wise, an iPad is generally more powerful than a Chromebook. There are some great apps that you can use with an iPad that you just can't get on na Chromebook. In the end, it's up to the consumer. iPads CAN replace a PC for many (possibly most) people who do little more than web-surfing, checking email, so word processing and spreadsheets, and watching some videos. Most people don't need more than that and the iPad is great at that.

I am sure the solution for this form has already Surfaced.

The Microsoft surface cant compete with the Ipad pro the equivalent core i5 surface 4 is slightly more expensive and isn't as powerful. Overall the surface doesn't really have a place it doesn't work well enough as a drawing tablet to work in that regard. And isn't as convenient as a regular laptop. As an industrial designer the surface cant computer with the ipad. The surface only really works as a laptop that you can use a mediocre stylus with. No real professional is going to be using a surface, its not powerful enough or stable enough to run 3d modeling softwares and on top of that the battery can hardly support intensive use for long. I personally use the iPad everyday in my field.

actually it can replace a laptop. during college i broke my laptop and stuck to my ipad and i did every paper and presentation with it, even taking notes in classes, and it was an ipad 2!! but the only drawback is that it doesnt run specialized apps like autocad, arc gis, and other stuff i use daily so i had to switch back to a laptop. i used my ipad for a whole year and it worked just fine, in fact it was good because it was so low weight and portable. you need time to get used to the interface but it could work really well for sure. if you dont need very specific apps for engineering like i do, or any other, you can do well with an ipad, seriously :)

I am an author and use an iPad with Apple Pencil and magic keyboard for my daily work life. I use iMovie and Procreate for video creation to promote my books. iOS 14 with mouse support gives me the ability to multitask on my iPad just as well as work on my MacBook Air. The iPad is actually a very good replacement for my MacBook Air for most tasks, unless I need to create custom graphics in Motion 5.

this iPad is sure a monster but the limits of its ecosystem are really holding me back, I think that anybody can use a decent android tablet as a laptop replacement, but with an iPad it's a no do, for exemple samsung tablets were able to run two apps side by side long time ago, not all apps are supported but Evernote plus Chrome should be more than enough for many people, add to that support for usb devices, mouse plus keyboard and screen mirroring and even a hard drive ! all at the same time , that's exactly what you can't do on ipads , even thought they should be able to run all this features without problems but Apple decided not to let their customers have those abilities

I actually replaced my Macbook Pro with an iPad. I'm a computer tech and run a shop. I would say about 70-80% of my customers could do everything they currently do on a laptop with an iPad. Or a phone for that matter.

Absolutely not a PC replacement, you can't even upload the 4K video footage filmed with the iPad Pro to KZread in 4K, or any other 4K footage, 1080p only. Unless of course you transfer the 4K footage to a real PC and upload it from there. Apple also doesn't give the consumer enough charge over media files. If I import my media such as pictures and videos to my iPad Pro via microSD card, should I not then be able to export my files directly to a miroSD card? You cannot do this either without a real PC. You might say I'm somewhat disappointed in my Apple iPad Pro, and it's lack of user controllability. After all, my media is mine right? Absolutely NOT a PC replacement, and Apple never should have marketed it as such.

I just purchased an iPad Pro 9.7. I've been using a Macbook Pro for years. I am replacing it with this. I anticipate there will be a learning curve, but I'm thinking it will be able to do all I need it to. I still have a desktop iMac at home and will use that if I need to for serious stuff. Looking forward to trying this out as a new, smaller solution.

Got the 12.9 and this version currently. But only wanting to keep one as I've already got a MacBook (mainly for gaming, video editing). Can't decide whether to go with the 9.7 which is a better tablet, but doesn't bode as well as the 12.9 with multitasking. Any advice?

Some people can't buy a Surface, at least the more powerful configs. Just saying... It's better of course, much like a gaming pc is better than any surface out there but the iPad Pro as a student laptop replacement does the job. Also, it features some nice capabilities from the mobile world like the camera and adds the absolutely stunning 4-speakers. Anyway Apple shouldn't market it as a laptop killer when they still make some obvious efforts to separate the Pro family from the MacBooks out there. In that sense, the Pros could work with an OS closer to OS X, adding some compatibility and stuff but they don't want to alienate their notebook consumers creating an iPad that is better than their even more expensive laptops. That's the reason why it still revolves around the iOS and give you few options in terms of file management.

I replaced the mac with this iPad, and I don't regret it...

For someone that’s old (40+) and is looking for a device for business use I highly suggest this. This is less confusing to use, and more easier to move around and pretty smooth.

I love the new iPad Pro! Nice video Thank you!

Don't be stupid. Why ask the question? It runs even less software than a Mac, and none of it are for "computer users".

ScoopexUs Macs are still pretty good with video editing. The problem is that Apple's catering to the average user is leading to them neglecting their power users. Also, the Apple Pencil still pales against Microsoft's Surface Pen.

The point is, depending on what you use (Word, Excel, social media) it could replace most functions. It depends on your use.

Loved this video! Ive been subscribed for a while now and I like everything that you review. I think they are pretty fair reviews. I would totally replace my 2011 MacBook pro for an iPad pro9.7. My MacBook pro has done me well, she's just really slowing down and would like a smaller footprint....cant afford one at the moment though....but anyway...Keep up the great videos!

I've been really looking into one of these, but when I found out how difficult Apple makes iOS to use relative to file management and connectivity with even a Mac, I have decided against it. You ought to be able to hardwire attach an iPad to a PC or a MBP and drag and drop the files you want transferred to it. Like music, photos, and other important documents. I don't want to have to store those things on line somewhere, and I don't think I should have to add an app that allows me some measure of connectivity. I think I understand Apple's reasoning with iOS, but I don't like it one bit.

What gaming laptops do you reccomend with a budget

I use my ipad air 2 a lot. With Notes plus and a homemade stylus i input handwritten sheet music for quick drafts I use it for Notation with Notion software I watch movies on streaming services I use it for quick sound editing on Cubasis and Garageband I even use it as a synth instrument with VSTs like Animoog and Thor Video editing is pretty poor unlike it's DAW Capabilities and so is image editing, but quick fixes it sort of works I use it as a second screen which is great for notation purposes and mixing (mixer on one screen timeline on PC) Where it's truly irreplaceable is with having PDFs, sheet music, notes and textbooks, allthewhile being great for Word, Powerpoint and Excel with a Great OneNote app. Not to mention how much more I get to do when I jailbreak it, with small tweaks to the KZread app for instance. I really didn't think i was a tablet person before I started using it in school and live on stage. P.S. It's great for all browsing purposes as well.

I remember when this video came out and I thought no way could it replace a laptop. A little over a year later, and I am selling my MacBook Pro and keeping my iPad Pro 9.7" as my daily driver.

I have a high end gaming PC at home, and I use my 12.9-inch iPad Pro in class for assignments and productivity. I also like how I can use it as a second monitor at home with duet display. Other students are always asking me how to go 100% paper free like I did and I am always happy to explain how I do it. I've considered making a video on it. But I think an iPad Pro can replace a laptop as long as you have a desktop or notebook at home in addition to it. Obviously it cannot replace a gaming PC, not even close, but it really is a fantastically reliable resource to use in the work place or in class.

"imagine what your computer could do, if your computer was an iPad" ummm. Tablet Computers have been around for so long. Get with the program apple. So overpriced for its mediocre specs. You're paying for the name.

My iPad Pro 12.9 is all I need and use. Office is totally usable on this device and with the Files app there’s no mistaking this can completely replace your laptop

I replaced my dell with an iPad Pro with Smart Keyboard. It's great as a notebook replacement, great battery life, bright beautiful screen. The only thing i miss is being able to download content (like video), copying to a USB stick and plugging it to my tv. I mostly use stream services for videos but sometimes you can only download certain content. Forget if for gaming, iOS games suck (imo). Sometimes I try to find a reason to buy a notebook (because I love tech stuff) but cant find enough reasons with how useful the iPad Pro is.

The iPad pro 9.7: what was supposed to be the iPad air 3 except it's 200$ more expensive

Well it does take some getting used to but switching to an iPad Pro 9.7 to do every day things for me mostly mail, word and PowerPoint is definitely doable. The thing I love the most about it is the battery life and that I can do my job almost everywhere .

2GB of RAM coupled with iOS and the A9X is a powerhouse. It will not compete with a gaming computer, but it will give most things a run for its money. A good example is the iPhone 6s, which also has an A9 processor and 2GB of RAM, but outperforms the Galaxy Note 7 and S7 family of phones in both speed tests and gaming performance. Don't believe me? Watch speed comparisons done by almost any reputable tech channel on KZread.

Chances are that if you try and sell a gaming PC to the iPad's target market, they might think the PC is just as ridiculous as you think the iPad is. "Different strokes for different folks". Some people will still argue that BlackBerry OS is far better than Android. While I definitely do not agree with it, some do.

I tried a lot and finally I could use iPad Pro 12.9 2017 model as my PC you know i take it to work and many many places.

I actually use an Air 2 as my daily driver. It replaced my 13" MacBook Air back in September of 2014. Might be making the upgrade to the iPad Pro this fall. PS: Austin must be working out or something. Nice work.

nop ,you can't run emulators or pc games or exe files so nop
