      Yes and no. The iPad is something that Apple has done a pretty decent job cornering the market on without the usual BS. There's not much in the Android ecosystem that can compete with it other than perhaps the Samsung Tab S series and those start off more expensive than the cheapest iPad if you want to use the S-Pen.

    Surprisingly, there is also synchronization on devices using Android, even in many applications there is synchronization and it does not matter which device you use, it is not necessary to buy equipment from one manufacturer so that your data is synchronized. Therefore, the concept of the apple ecosystem is unattractive and useless, they literally do not differ from others, but at the same time they charge much more money for it. And do not forget that they pull you inside their beautiful garden, fenced with a concrete wall with barbed wire, using the ecosystem, forcing you to buy more and more Apple devices and making it more difficult to get out of it

In addition, do not forget that it has much more functionality (it is interesting when on an iPhone it will be possible to split the screen in half to simultaneously open a textbook and a calculator to make calculations and at the same time watch what needs to be counted. This is one of the many examples that an iPhone still can't do)

    You can send files to your computer using KDE Connect instead of Air Drop. Apple hinders the usability of it to the best of its ability by restricting APIs, but it significantly reduces the stickyness of Apples ecosystem.
    KDE Connect even is part of the reason I switched off of the iPad because the experience of file transfers and clipboard sync was so much worse when the iPad was involved, unlike my PCs or (Android) phone. I thought I'd miss Goodnotes, but Samsung Notes surprised me with how good it was. The only thing I miss after switching is how good the hold to snap to shapes was in Goodnotes.

      I stopped using an iPad and switched to a Surface for a bit, but now I have an iPad again. I forgot how much I actually used the continuity features Apple has.
      I can copy paste not just text between devices, but images and whole files between devices. I can extend my MacBook screen using my iPad, I can AirPlay my iPad audio to my MacBook, so if I’m using wired headphones plugged into my MacBook I can still hear audio from my iPad. I can even move my cursor OFF MY MACBOOK and straight onto my iPad, as if they were linked together, and I can drag a file off my MacBook and directly on my iPad without moving my fingers off the touchpad. And there’s so much more I’m probably not even thinking about that I do subconsciously.
      Samsung is catching up and fast, but the feature set between the MacBook and iPad is unmatched currently, it’s not just airdrop or photo sync. But who knows, if Microsoft and Samsung could figure it out I’d be happy to switch back! I’m not tied down to one way of doing things, I’ve used Windows all my life and switched to macOS when Apple silicon came out because PC laptop manufacturers didn’t know how to make good laptops anymore. I’m very interested in the Snapdragon Elite chips though.

While yeah, google tracks you on android, I love android more for customizability, installing (free) open source apps from github and f-droid, being able to use the chromium browser engine (ios forces all browser apps to use webkit, unless you're in the eu), the universal back button, the ability to mod apps with ease, website notifications, and I've found many apps on android are much better than their ios counterpart (including apple music, which was made by apple).

Same way “SE” means the cheapest apple has to offer for a specific category.

      You want one of the biggest tech companies in the world to fail? Not even talking about the employees that lose their livelihoods because you have some deep hatred for some reason, less players in the space means less competition means less innovation. You wonder why it’s been a game of telephone between iOS and Android features for the past 5-10 years? Because each platform makes a feature, then the other platform does market research and figures out if that feature would be responded to positively by their users, then they implement it (slightly differently but the idea is similar). If iOS (or Android for that matter) stopped, what pressure does Google have to keep innovating? None! They can just sit and rest and do nothing, while you’re still buying the phone because it’s quite literally the only option.

    I had a iPad pro for 3 years......hated it. Hated how Apple isolates apps. Trying to get my comic book collection down and then seen by any of the IOS apps was impossible. 2023 I found out that Samsung offered a $500 trade in toward a Tab S8 Ultra. Formatted a 1TB microSD card as fat32, dropped 200GB of comics on it along with 300GB of movies, and another 100GB of music and it was all detected no messing with the thing. It just works. 14" screen is legit paper sized. Writing on something that is the side of a piece of paper is so nice.

    Seriously though, iPad user since day 1 here. It's a great device, especially for note taking and document management, so it *WAS* a big deal for me...
    I eventually move away from iPads for a couple critical reason - Apple's 'Wall garden' iOS/iPadOS and monopoly App store.
    I am using a Surface Pro 9 5G it does what I need, but the writing and note taking experience, along with touch is just utterly crap in comparison, but I'll take a more open OS that gives me more freedom and control over iPadOS.
    For the life of me why can't Android OEMS make a 4:3 aspect ratio like iPads?
    It doesn't hurt iPad sales and the aspect ratio makes portrait actually useable, especially for note takers.
    Also why in all these years is there not any actual Linux tablets yet?

      Also he has to edit videos, which is a major pain especially when using Wayland, which I think is enforced with Fedora 40. Ive not gotten DaVinci Resolve to be stable on Wayland yet and KDEnlive and others have a far smaller feature set. Also as he is very used to Final Cut, I doubt he will want to switch.
      Linux has a market, especially with people that grew up knowing of its existence and maybe even trying it. Theres a reason Apple, Google and Microsoft give insane deals for schools if they opt to use their respective devices.
      My personal Linux story starts with me getting in my school with a teacher running the schools systems and having us use Ubuntu Mate, while my father switched back to Windows after trying Ubuntu in the mid 2000s. Because I liked playing around with new teck, I installed Manjaro into a dual boot to try out Proton 3 after it released. Sadly some SSDs died so I switched back and forth, and I use Windows for gaming due to VR not really working well on Linux, even natively, but for working, coding and web browsing I use Arch and Fedora now. I even got my entire family and most of my friends to switch to Linux after some influencing consisting of me sharing my hatred of almost all tech companies.
