alt Hacker NewsThis seems to hold true for most people. One of my close friends (a successful founder) was an early adopter of the iPad Pro, and intended to make it his go-to device for traveling. He ended up buying the Magic Keyboard case, a USB-C dongle for HDMI out, and the Apple Pencil to comprise a proper Rube Goldberg travel experience.
After months of suffering through that, he switched back to a Macbook Air and carries the iPad for watching Plex now. I am still baffled as to which "pros" the iPad Pro is targeting.
I have an ipad pro. 90% of the time it's a 3rd monitor for my macbook at my desk. (Very expensive per pixel for that use case!!)
It's nice to have for movies on flights.
A few times a year I use it as a portable second monitor.
I use the stylus for sketching sometimes.
Being self-critical, I overpaid for something I thought I would use more.
I'm not a fan of and don't use the ipad OS features that basically make it more like a mac desktop.
