- The iPad Pro: A Viable Option, But Not a Laptop Replacement (Yet)
This analysis explores the iPad Pro's potential as a professional creative tool, focusing on photographers.
Strengths:
User-Friendly Interface: The iPad excels in offering a simple and accessible interface, making creative tasks like sketching and basic photo editing intuitive.
Streamlined Workflow: Simple tasks become effortless on the touchscreen, allowing creators to focus on their artistic vision.
Weaknesses:
Limited Software: The iPad software ecosystem lacks the depth needed for professional use. Popular editing apps like Photoshop are watered-down versions compared to their desktop counterparts.
Hardware and Ecosystem Limitations: The iPad Pro, despite its processing power, lacks the versatility of a traditional computer setup with multiple monitors, external storage, and specific editing peripherals. The closed Apple ecosystem can also restrict workflow integration.
High Cost of Entry: A professional iPad Pro setup requires a significant investment due to the need for additional accessories like a keyboard and Apple Pencil.
The Future:
AI and Software Advancements: Future advancements in AI and software could revolutionize the iPad experience by offering powerful tools that automate manual tasks and bridge the gap between the iPad's streamlined interface and robust desktop functionalities.
The Rise of the Curator Artist: This future artist might leverage AI as a tool, providing creative direction while AI handles technical tasks.
Conclusion:
The iPad Pro shows promise as a creative tool, particularly for casual users and those exploring new creative avenues. However, limitations in software, hardware, and the overall ecosystem prevent it from fully replacing traditional computers for professional creatives. For now, the iPad Pro is a viable option with limitations, but not quite ready to dethrone the laptop.

This is actually a really intelligent, thoughtful and nuanced commentary on the relationship between Watch → iPhone → iPad → Mac.
Also, as someone who worked at Apple I can say you also seem to philosophically understand more about how Apple operates than many of the typical pundits we hear from.
Nice work, mate!
Yes, this. You have to understand how Apple operates in order to make sense of what they are doing. Keep it up.
It seems that the software developers haven’t invested enough in the iPad ecosystem is the number one challenge.
Why do you only have under 1k subs??😨 This video has more quality than most TH-camrs with 100k - 800k subs
always seen ipads as an underrated artist tool love it
Interesting take on what people have. I have had an iPad and iPhone for the past 5 years. I use a Mac at work but never bring it home and primarily do my work on iPad. E-mail, web browsing…photos and for travel. I believe enthusiast make up a much smaller percentage than regular folk. My parents work on iPads.
What a great video! Why has it only 75 views? Most original take on the iPad vs. macOS discussion I have seen so far. You actually gave some original insights and thoughts. Keep it up!
Here before you reach 1 million subs in 2 years.
Great video. But until the MacBook has cellular data and a built in and a rear facing camera, it will never replace my iPad. Granted, I’m probably a niche user but the iPad has changed the way I do aid/relief work in the field. I’ve had the iPad cellular still working when wifi was down while reporting live from typhoon hit regions. I can coordinate supply delivers (water/food/medical) live from the field with one device without being tethered to another all with a screen large enough for me to be comfortable working from.
Some more points to consider... Apple announced years ago that they would start bringing MacOS and iOS closer - from the apps and features, to the codebase and the processor they run on - and have delivered. But it's massive. They have few reasons to do it in a hurry, and a lot of reasons to pace themselves. "Keep selling stuff" is a big one, but perhaps more important is to see what people do with the products as they evolve.
Love your explanation in the beginning
By the way, this is a very intelligent and well articulated analysis
I use the ipad for illustration and increasingly to originate drawn animation, but have to go mac for post production work etc. It works but is a pain swapping between machines (and I hate dealing with the very limited IOs file system). Lots are talk about mac os on Ipad and I suspect Apple won't do it, but I think it more likely that they would do mac verison of Microsoft Surface. This would (I hope) work for a lot of professionals. It might be a flagship that they charged for... but I dont think it would conflict with the rest of their range. We'll see...
I think migrating a workflow from Laptop/Desktop to iPad is always gonna be a challenge. You have to start on an iPad and build a workflow around its strengths and limitations. I did that for years in high school, where my iPad was my primary computer. The iPad had to be good enough because it was the only device I could take with me. Was it perfect? No, for the same reason that recording a movie using a Laptop webcam is a bad idea. But you can make it work.
Great video! keep it up.
I too used to buy the cannibalizing narrative but have since come to appreciate that Apple sticks to iPadOS, giving birth to unique apps that take advantage of iPad's unique hardware specs. Like comparison to the right click on a mouse.
Super helpful video!
Well done on this. Some of the most thoughtful points on this topic I have seen on here. I would always have a soft spot for the IPad, but your analogy of being constantly stuck in Christmas Eve is so apt! -
U r videos quality is top-notch,keep it up
Outro idea 💡… ‘Thanks for watching, and let’s picture the next one together.’ Or “I’ll picture in the next one.’
Maybe I’d be richer if I kept all my ‘2 cents’ to myself 😅😊
For reaching out and doing what you do, I thank you 🙏🏻
Nice vid. 🙏🏻
I have the smaller phone and the 11in ipad, which to me is a great combo. It really does come down to the individual.
just rewatched on my iPad
Just subscribed fire content
What is the things that you can’t do on an iPad? It has to be specific.
Thank you for your interesting video. How nice to hear your views said in a way I have never heard before. I have only an iPad which I am going to upgrade to the new one plus a new pencil. I intend to attempt some art work and make more use of my new iPad. I understand everything you have said and agree with you and I feel fortunate that we have a choice in which device(s) we choose to use and have someone we can listen to if we may be undecided. Again I say thank you.
Apple did this to themselves by putting desktop chips into iPads, so of course our expectations have risen.
Actually it the opposite, the Mac received an iPad chip
Our grandkids only have tablets. I have watch, phone, iPad, and laptop. I use the iPad for most casual tasks (TH-cam, email, zoom, ebooks). I hand hold the iPad or on a stand depending on whether I am also doing work on my laptop. I doubt the iPad will replace my laptop unless Apple allows side-loading and supports virtualization. I doubt they will release a 16” iPad with the power of a max chip.
Just picked up the 13 m4 1TB, but not to replace ANYTHING, just a tool to add to the workflow on mobile uses, PC is still the main workhorse. Great video, and very informative. the day would be amazing to do it all mobile but I agree we are not there
I am 3D Artist I lately is getting excited to purchase an iPad Pro. Is missing really little to have a decent workflow.
Valence 3d, Nomad Sculpt and Uniform are looking 🔥
Used to need a MacBook Pro, back in 2010s when I returned to school for Graphic Design. Now I use Mac Mini desktop, with a big screen TV (old eyes, need big screen) and use an iPad Air5 for any mobile computing tasks (Pages, Keynote drafts-with BT keyboard, mouse & Freeform with Logitech Crayon v2 , then to Mac Mini if needed). As an older person on fixed income & longtime Apple/Mac user, I use an iPhone SE 128 GB, so NOT a lot of work happening on that size screen.
Thoughtful commentary, on what might be.
Great insight. I am using the 13” iPad Pro M4 and desperately want to use it as my only machine. Its close and I think I could do it if Apple would just make the files App better and finally come out with better multi tasking and finally launch FCP for iPad 2, which they said was coming in spring…yet here we are now in summer
Software deficiencies has been the problem with the iPad since its creation. This is part Apple’s fault in not allowing side loading and part developers fault in not compiling such good programs for iPad. I do believe the iPad is sufficient for most people, but there are definitely specialised applications where laptops are still necessary. The iPad has long been my favourite computer, but I still use a Mac as well for certain tasks and when in my office. I love using the iPad, while the Mac is just a necessary tool. Kids are growing up with touch screen devices and I believe the iPad is the future. The Mac seems limiting. I am forever reaching for the screen with nothing happening. Also being tied to a keyboard limits use situations. With software improvements the iPad is a far better device.
If it gets terminal, Xcode and finder, i can see it replacing PCs and Macs. Also, More browsers than Safari and freedom to sideload with internet apps. iPads are bricked with iPadOS and apple “security” protocols.
Files works the same as Finder
are you the switch guy?! wolf
Haha I thought the same thing at first. Love wolf
THE GOAT
You need to talk to some illustrators and animators
Unless we can code on it
I think you're so wright. Some people ask how AI can "fix" the iPad. And that's it. In their last keynote they showed that you can remove the background of a video while editing. Thanks to AI and the power of their silicon you don't have to do it manualy so it's totaly doable on an iPad...
I am about to jump into this marriage, because “she” is pretty, not because of what is under the hood. I really hope looks endure test of time better than other qualities
The iPad can't even format an USB, something that is always useful for a professional to have, by that point you will be better with a windows tablet or a android/Chromebook tablets that lately they got compatibility with lumafusion
Having said that if someone knows how limited is the iPad OS and still wants to have fun with it, i will say is not a bad choice but pls at least have a Android phone or windows laptop for any extra thing that the ipad pro can't handle 😎👍
Android and Microsoft?!!!!…… Please!
Windows and Android/Chromebooks still don’t have Final Cut or Da Vinci Resolve. Also formatting a USB is pretty uncommon nowadays
@@chidorirasenganzthere are many nitty gritty things like flashing USB which is used by a lot of people
@@pirateluffy01 a lot as a nominal amount but minimal compared to percentage of folks who use an iPad. I’ve connected plenty of storage devices to my iPad and I’ve rarely needed to format a drive
Ipad mouse support is deliberately shit. If it was better (better control, text selections, more like copy/paste stuff) then it only use a ipad. But maybe im a smoothbrain and dont know how to tweak the ipad properly.
Designing on apple platforms is an exercise in appearances first, efficiency second.
Sorry not sorry.
All the professional software has been available with a touchscreen on Windows for years. There is no reason not to make desktop software available in an ipad. It has the same chips as the macbooks, there is no reason anymore. The ipad OS is irrelevant
Apple Desktop does not do CGI Modeling. Well, it does but it crashes and rendering is just,,.no. apple is good for graphics , video, web, but not CGI. Thanks 😊
Yeah it’s actually has been great since Apple Silicon. Maybe if you use something other than Blender or Cinema 4D but the former is becoming more and more of a industry standard
@@chidorirasenganz I used to be all 3Dsmax with windows. Then my license expired. So now I do Blender.
Not with iOS it won't. lmao
It already has with iPadOS
@@chidorirasenganz lmao
what do you want on iOS that you can't do?
Too many positive comments.
Praying in your downfall 🙏
Like all problems, capitalism is what’s holding us back.
That's a very wrong notion. While capitalism has it's faults, it's a far more forward-moving system than any other "-ism" counterpart. Just look at how capitalist systems in the world are more technologically advanced and innovative. The problems of capitalism are far more sufferable and bearable than the opposite.
