Also interesting that the dev kits use the same chip as the latest iPad Pros (A12Z). I’d love to see the two OSes merge to some extent because I love writing on the tablet but find iPadOS not the best for general dev work.
Oh, 1,000%. Even basic tasks like working on a file, then pasting said file to a cloud storage app and then to an email/slack channel take an order of magnitude longer than it would on a computer. Long way to go before the iPad becomes a true Pro machine, but for some fields, it's basically there. Still, such simple quality of life improves that are mainstay/muscle memory on computers essentially take time and animations and taps to execute.
