The 10.1" seem carefully chosen so that on Android, most tablets and phones are covered by the "free" edition while Chromebooks (that can run Android apps) are not.
- Razengan 7y agoA more sane approach would be to have a "Lite" version for completely free and a paid "Pro" version or something with all features without restrictions on device size, which is an arbitrary metric because a tablet's marketed size sometimes increases when they reduce the bezels around the screen, without increasing its physical dimensions, as with recent iPads.
- Dylan16807 7y agoThat's not arbitrary. The metric is always screen size.
- Razengan 7y agoIf I'm currently using a "9.7 inch" iPad, and I decide to upgrade it to a newer model with the same physical dimensions (because of space in my bags/compatibility with existing cases etc.), but it's now marketed as a "10.5 inch" or whatever, will I lose access to my current [free] MS Office tier?
