- ksec 6y agoDepends I guess. I dont think the MacBook and iPad Pro are aiming at the same group of customers. iPad Pro are aiming at Professionals, from CAD, 3D, PhotoEditing with Apple Pencil, Those will care about the screen. And they knew and understand why it is more expensive to make low latency input. At 9ms it is already one of the best in the industry, and I would not be surprised it they continue to work on lowering it. Macbook ( The non Pros ) are aiming at casual computing users, in terms of customer group they are more likely to be overlap with iPad and iPad Air. But then both iPad and iPad Air are more towards a consumption devices more than productivity. If they are students, Keyboard and Mouse is still a much better experience for wiring up your homework. Of course you can get a keyboard for iPad as well.
- klelatti 6y agoI agree 100% that Apple are aiming at creative professionals. I do think that actual buyers are a lot more diverse though. I've seen lots of iPad Pros in use in business meetings where the user is almost certainly not aware of the screen. In some cases it's because they just want a bigger screen. In others just because they wanted 'the best' iPad and the cost wasn't an issue. (I've actually heard someone come into an Apple store and just ask for the best iPad irrespective of cost!)
