Will iPad Pro Be Your Next Computer?

Although the iPad Pro also running iOS system, but Microsoft's Surface Pro 3 tablet is a direct competitor.


Although the Apple press conference before we saw a lot of iPad Pro news, but the official release time or give us a lot of surprises. The iPad Pro will deliver a message in November, but also to many on this 12.9 inches tablet interested friends full of expectation.

It is easy to iPad Pro simple as a large iPad, but this idea will be just like the original iPad as a large iPhone, is not correct. Although the iPad Pro also running iOS system, but Microsoft's Surface Pro 3 tablet is a direct competitor. And we have reason to believe, iPad Pro will become Apple in recent years the most influential computer products, even with the original MacBook Air par.


Size factor

Two years ago, I had published an iPad instead of a laptop with the article, although the test is relatively smooth, but to be honest, when the iPad is not able to completely replace a real laptop or desktop, just as a more reasonable supplementary equipment present. And the most important factor causing this problem is the size of 10 inches of iPad better than almost all laptops have a small, even if connected to the keyboard is also very handy.

The advent of iPad Pro solves this problem, 12.9 inches of screen MacBook Pro is almost equivalent to more than a new MacBook, also bigger than the Surface Pro 3. Apple says this screen size means that the user can easily arrange two applications simultaneously on the screen, at the same time and no missing functionality. In addition, Apple iPad also gives the opportunity to use a full-size external keyboard users, we want to see such a professional like Logitech peripherals manufacturers how to design products.


Of course, larger screen iPad Pro will weaken the role of the Tablet PC as, for some of the major entertainment and leisure with iPad users, iPad Pro too, iPad Air or iPad Mini already meet the demand. Furthermore, in addition to 12.9 inches big screen, 4: 3 screen ratio and 1.57 pounds of weight, but also to be much higher than the iPad Air 2 length, it can be said iPad Pro than the iPad Air 2 large whole 40%, reduced portability.

Dressed in coat tablet computer

In a sense, iPad Pro has a deceptive name, generally speaking, the Tablet PC more for consumption, rather than professional productivity tools, and this is the consensus reached on the common market, it is difficult to imagine a "Plus" version of the iPad Air can have how high efficiency.

However, iPad Pro can do it once more, but the main factor from the hardware. Apple's chip design skill class, through the unremitting efforts and optimization allows A9X with other excellent processor in the world to compete. Although we have declared for Apple iPad Pro sales 80 percent last year due notebooks and PC's to say, after all, but with a very fuzzy Cook saying to describe iPad Pro's performance, such as 30% higher than the iPad Air 2 performance, more than twice the graphics performance and so on.


However, multitasking feature in iOS 9 system added, suddenly let us feel the iPad Pro for Windows systems combo device threats. This may sound crazy, but we can think, Windows 10 device in tablet mode, the full-screen mode directly run App, and can not simultaneously handle two different applications. The iOS system, although not in the traditional Windows desktop rivals function, but in mobile devices definitely has the advantage.

The other is the keyboard and stylus, never before Apple officially launched the iPad tablet through official keyboard and stylus accessories, so this means that iPad Pro is now a completely different target audience. While the iPad Mini, iPad Air 2 and iPad Pro are belong to the iPad family, but they are clearly different for the audience, and iPad Pro is specifically pointing to those who are considering buying a Windows combo mixing device consumers.

Dilemma Software

iPad Pro hardware intentions clear, but the software is a big problem, exactly is said to be confusing. iPad Pro running iOS system, but several times the size of the iPhone screen does. The price is similar to the Windows 10 or OS X system products, and with many OS X system functions overlap.

Mac products of fans for so many years been worried about whether Apple will abandon OS X system wholeheartedly support iOS, OS X, after all, now many properties already borrowed from iOS mobile platform system. The iPad Pro highlights the emergence of more territory for the invasion of Mac products, even though it runs iOS system.

Apple iPad Pro's strategy confusing, there is no iPad Air 3 available, but Apple has invited the press conference on behalf of Microsoft's Office team presentation. On the software and features, Apple iPad Pro directly to the Mac as a potential competitor. In fact, iPad Pro than the iPad Air and Mac have more variations, this time more concerned about productivity tools, but not the game, size and endurance capacity.

For some people, this is really confusing, but if Apple can stick to it, we believe that next year the iPad Pro 2 will probably become a mainstream productivity tools, and this is the first success of the tablet and personal computer combined products. This is a good thing for the entire industry, too, and to pave the way for a number of imitators.


Beyond the new MacBook

Just a few months ago, I also called the new MacBook "is currently the most avant-garde in the sale of Apple products," but now, the name of the first seems to be easy to master. iPad Pro does have a lot of innovation, but also should be changed, tablet PCs and operating systems designed for the many potential.

It should be noted that, where I used a word "should", after all, the new MacBook has played a leading role. Whatever the shortcomings, the new MacBook the next five years will be slim portable notebook model. The iPad Pro task also firmer, so the design is also more bold. The new MacBook While there is some controversy, but also brought a lot of change, and iPad Pro is even more want to tablets and laptops behind.

In fact, many companies have begun to try in this area, especially Microsoft's Surface, it has made some achievements, but in fact did not gain a foothold. At this year's IFA, more and more similar to the equipment to prove that many manufacturers are beginning to get involved in the idea of ​​combo products, especially in a 360-degree swivel screen hinge design and once again become the mainstream.

Apple was able to become a very successful company, and not just rely on the level of own crafts products, but also that Apple has a lot of unheard of but very useful ideas. The combo computer is one such idea, if the actual future market performance with Apple expected, then the iPad Pro will revolutionize the way we struggle between notebook and tablet for, and change the course of computer products.
