It's quite fascinating. Apple ships their tablet with a stylus, while Google ships theirs with a charger-speaker-dock.
Apple is saying "this is for the creatives" while Google is saying "this is a home console".
- plexicle 3y ago"Apple ships their tablet with a stylus" Huh?
- pphysch 3y agoYikes, I was under the impression that it was included in the $449. Nope, gotta drop another $100. My point stands: Apple has pen as primary accessory, Google has dock.
- NikolaNovak 3y agoI mean, Galaxy Note has a pen but iPhone does not. Does that mean Samsung is for creatives but Apple is not? :-> Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed your theory, the thinking and rationale :). But given the pen is a whopping 100$ for Apple, not sure if it's as simple as that.
- vineyardmike 3y agoApple made or tried to make the operating system useful enough to use productively with a stylus and keyboard. Google has not yet. Remember the original iPad was very much NOT a keyboard/stylus device. Google is a few years behind, but fwiw their device supports Bluetooth keyboards and styluses they just don’t make a first party one.
- jkaplowitz 3y agoI think Google is trying to compete with Amazon Echo Show for this device, not with Apple iPad.
