Apple’s hardware teams are seriously running laps around their software teams. Which is odd, because historically, it’s been the opposite.

Until iPad OS actually becomes capable for complex work and multitasking, I can’t see what the benefit of strapping such a powerful chip to an iPad is.

iPad OS is already capable of complex work and has been capable of multitasking since it was iPhone OS v1.

ChromeOS is "capable of complex work" on $200 tablets. And it can compile C++, run Windows games and use full-fat web browsers.

In a head-to-head comparison with real desktops like macOS or Windows, iPadOS can be generously described as a no-show.
