I’ve used the 12.9 pro for three years now. A (very) small business owner and part time teacher. iPad OS is becoming more and more of a joy to use. Some thoughts:
1. Dock behaviour is a little annoying since iPhone X was released. I hate that dragging up triggers app exposé when four fingers works just fine.
2. Apple needs to kill this whole notion of syncing media libraries. I have only ever hated it.
3. If Apple wants to get serious with iPad Pro then they need to put Logic and Final Cut on it. Full versions.
4. I really hope to live and see the day when Blender is on it.
5. iPads are such exceedingly wonderful tools for self education. A large part is due to online learning in general becoming wonderful but PDF reader split view with something like good notes and using the pencil is such a joy.
6. I feel like gaming is in a sad state on iPads. I really hope that having PlayStation and Xbox gamepads working on them opens up the platform. It’s a kick in the teeth to have a portable machine which is just about as good as an Xbox one not having games to match it’s potential.
7. It’s been ten years and so many people still don’t get it. iPads are in a weird spot between power users who need more for their professional work (like CGI, developers, working with ridiculous size PS files) who understandably see them as toys and on the other side are most people who don’t use their computers for work, art, study, whatever just Facebook and Netflix. These guys would be better off with an iPad instead of a laptop but they find them too expensive anyways.
