basically the title, i do not use the ipad as a working station (is so uncomfortable), not editing photos or videos, just social media, tiktok, youtube, reddit, insta and web browsing, but the more ram the better at a long term usage. I got the m4 when it was the latest, dec 2024.

the m5 did the jump to the 12gb ram, even the m4 air has a base of 12gb ram. I feel robbed about this that the air has better sustain that my pro and both have the same chip

apple intelligence will require more horsepower and maybe it will be limited by the ram itself,

what would you do?

Given that iPad was the one that stablished the tablet market more than 15 years ago, it is come into a state where… it isn’t simply lacks of features that other tablets have gotten.

For example, Samsung Galaxy Tabs have the Spen support more present with the circule to search function, AI drawing assistance with the switch to image, being able to annotate whenever you want on any place of be screen, etc. And of course Samsung Dex.

One Plus /Oppo Pad tablet have gotten better in recent years ai en software support and features.

The iPad is limited itself by their OS and it’s so frustrating, they though iPadOS 26 would be the answer but it was not, it’s terrible mess. Why did you put a computer chip inside a tablet if we cannot use it at its full potencial?

The Apple Pencil Pro is the other thing, if you don’t draw, then you either get the Type C one and that’s it, because the features are not useful if you are not a drawer/creator. They need to implement more feature to justify the price.

And the cherry on top, Apple Intelligence is non existence compared to Galaxy gemini, or any other AI assistance.

I know in this sub is common to have like 2-3 iPads, even more. But in my case, I have an M4 iPad Pro 13” and I am planning to get a Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+ and the reason will be gaming plus emulation on the big screen and connect a hub to it.

Other factors will be that at least samsung includes the stylus on box

How is the connection between this two tablets?

do you wish your apple pencil pro would have more feature and not just focused on drawing? like the spen on Samsung, the select ai feature, being able to control the ipad with apple pencil gestures when presenting on powerpoint (at least this one have bluetooth), etc

at this moment i just felt i should’ve gone with the usb type c apple pencil

I like tech, and I do see a bunch of people have it two phones. I think I will go that way, I am planning to get a S25 Ultra since my main one is 16 Pro Max.

How many here have iOS and Android?

i currently have a surface laptop studio first gen, and it’s so sad that they abandoned the line, my question is, does the surface laptop 7 15” is the straight successor? i don’t like the surface pro since it lacks the keyboard on purchase

i know that they include the new snapdragon for windows arms, but i game sometimes and league of legends does not work on that, and i am not sure on RPG Maker from steam and .exe files pls guide me
