I have made similar experience with my 13 inch iPad Pro. The hardware is just great - perhaps with an exception for the missing keys on the smart keyboard. But what really holds it back is the software. Working remotely on a Linux box works around some of the restrictions - I have been struggling with various ssh clients, I really have to give Blink a try. But the iPad Pro could be the ultimate mobile device, if Apple would put a stronger emphasis on developers needs. A sandboxed version of termux would just be great - perhaps even a complete virtualisation app, which allows to boot a linux inside the apps container.
