    My M1 iPad Air has the specs of a base M1 Mac Mini or M1 Macbook Air - same processors, same memory, same storage. We're past the point of iPads getting "closer and closer" to the Mac. Apple is just outright selling Macs that they claim aren't Macs because they slapped the iPad name on them.

    Apple marketing is a hell of a drug bc they convinced people that theres a difference between an ipad and a mac when theyre both just computers and there is no reason why an ipad cant do what macOS can do.

      Apple actually has an online army of people defending them in gatekeeping arguably the best consumer portable device ever manufactured. They want you to believe your use case would be wrong for an iPad, immoral 😂 There’s no valid reason other than Apple wanting every last penny from you. Who doesn’t think the same is just delusional.

      i am so done with tech tubers without a clue across the board, and ppl which use an iPad as a youtube machine talk about iPadOS....
      macOS will never ever come to iPad, ever period big fat NO.
      iPadOS is FAR SUPERIOR to anything else, it is WAY better than anything else, EASILY apples best device hands down.
      if your use case is covered by iPad and there is like a 99% chance it will be way better than anything else.
      slapping an ancient non touch OS on the iPad would be dumbest thing one could possibly ever do.
      just look at windows touchtops, thats exactly what you get, a giant mess with a completely useless touchscreen.
      but the MAIN thing is the Software, iPad is so unique, it is the only platform with actual PRO software made from the ground up for touch.
      NOBODY has that, android has no pro apps at all anyway and windows touchtops get the usual gimpy "touch" enabled software which isnt even mediocre at best.
      iPadOS is replacing macOS, this is what's happening.
      ppl need to L2iPad
      "tech" tubers have no skills or anything, they unbox things and share their opinion, not a single one understands iPad, or iPhone or mac at anything beyond the VERY basic use cases, not even 1% of any mac or iphone or ipad's capabilities ever crossed their mind.

    We don’t need a “dual boot” with iPadOS and MacOS, we need an UnifiedOS which would be some evolution of MacOS that would have 2 different UI. It would look like iPadOS when used as a tablet, touchscreen friendly, easy to use, and then as soon as you grab a precise pointer such a pencil, a mouse or a trackpad, then it flip the UI and then look like MacOS. But it’s the same OS running, which means you also have Terminal, Finder and Xcode DevKit, and you can run full MacOS apps, so it means you can turn your iPad Pro into a MacBook simply by grabbing a precise pointer.

      At the moment I use Universal Control to have my mouse & keyboard move from my Mac to iPad and back semi-frequently throughout the day. Would your UnifiedOS mean that when the mouse moves over the iPad would jump between "Mac mode" and "iPad mode" back and forth constantly or do you think it would have to be only when a bluetooth/magic keyboard and mouse are connected that it jumps between the different modes? Just curious as to how you see that working, as I know you can use Universal Control between Macs too.

    There's only one reason they won't allow ANY device to be as open as the Mac.
    They make money off of every app you buy for the iPad. They make nothing on the apps you buy for the Mac.
    Services keep growing for them, even as hardware sales are falling off.
    There's no chance they will ever open up the iPad, the AVP, or any other device.

    iPadOS is the reason why I have yet to upgrade form my iPad Pro 2020. It is ridiculous seeing Apple fanboys on Twitter going in full defense mode when people are wanting macOS on the iPad Pro. They have every right to complain about the current state of iPadOS. If Apple is going to give the iPad the same hardware as a Mac and are calling it “Pro”, we expect pro level software at these high prices. The software limitations is the reason why iPad Pro sales have been down for quite some time. The iPad Pro would be a good MacBook Air replacement if it were to run macOS. MacBook Pro sales would not be affected as they will still offer the most premium macOS experience.

      more and more will come to iPad, and OF COURSE is the ipad more expensive than a laptop that's jsut obvious, why wouldnt it?
      thats nothing new it was the case with the older ones as well.
      it has a touch screen, the mac doesn't, and thats really what it's all about.
      i bet you use ipad to watch videos and other very basic things, this is why you cry.

    After giving some thought this is my 2 cents. I'm a software engineer so I'm not reading just emails and simple user stuff
    iPad doesn't need macOS, iPadOS is much snappier than macOS, it just needs to run macOS apps that would run once the system detects a keyboard and a mouse, that way it won't require the app developer to do ANY redesign of the app. In theory that shouldn't require a lot of effort since the cpu/graphics/etc are the same.

    I really love the Apple Pencil with the iPad, plus the updated Magic Keyboard looks much more comfortable but I agree. I'm seeing the iPad getting more powerful and expensive yet I can't use Desktop apps on the iPad. I already have a decent Windows laptop that's carried me over college and I may take classes again, so to me it feels like it makes sense to upgrade and future proof my iPad with M4 chip and max storage, since my current iPad is six years old and showing its age, plus it's underpowered. So thankfully for me it will be a huge jump from 6th Gen iPad with underpowered specs to the newest iPad with M4 chip. Everyday I'm seeing iPad acting more like a laptop replacement yet Desktop apps isn't available which is frustrating. I'm planning on seeing the iPad in-store in person, watch review videos of different tech reviewers, and also see what software updates will be provided at WWDC next month. I would be so grateful if Apple finally allows desktop apps to work on iPad while still having access to iPad apps, I mean they even offer the Magic Keyboard! For now, it looks like a laptop alongside the iPad is still required due to different apps and different OS.

    The iPad is more powerful than most laptops but I can’t use most of the Adobe apps because they only work on desktop computers which is irritating. And it has to support 100W fast charging. They should feel embarrassed that new tech companies have 50W wireless charging and 100W wired, while they are still stuck at 15W and 23W.
    This is why I’m thinking of getting a Microsoft surface pro , or ASUS Zenbook Duo. They can make an iPad Ultra which has two systems , this will convince me to buy very expensive keyboard case. I hope they watch this video.

    The single biggest feature that would get me to buy an iPad would be multiple user support. I cannot justify buying an iPad for myself and for my fiancé with the prices, and it'd make sharing with a child a lot easier for so many people.

    Great example for the need of MacOS features:
    I use Logic Pro on an M1 Air. In logic i can have as many plugin windows open, floating, resizable, etc as i want. It is very much needed in Logic Pro from professional mixing. I want to see how a compressor is compressing while i adjust settings in a synth plugin etc. iPadOS is very limiting for PRO use. If i can't use it for PRO features, then a base iPad is fine for UA-cam.

    I totally agree with everything you say regarding the iPad Pro. I would even pay for a one-off software licence to be able install Mac OS on a 1TB+ large screen M series iPad Pro, or would upgrade my 12.9-inch 2TB M1 iPad Pro to the M4 all bells and whistle 13-inch iPad Pro if Apple said at this year's WWDC, they would offer a dual boot iPad OS / Mac OS (though I wouldn't purchase I until I've seen it happen, as once bitten twice shy!). But like you, I think this is unlikely. In fact, the 13-inch M2 iPad Air is more likely to cannibalize sales of the M4 iPad Pro, because what's the point of having an iPad Pro if its only allowed to run iPad OS, as you can do virtually everything an M4 iPad Pro can do, on an M2 iPad Air, with less of the technically capability wasted. This year's WWDC will help me decide whether I ditch the iPad Pro and replace it with a Microsoft Surface Pro 10 with Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite (I am extremely comfortable with Windows 11 arm, and it can now do everything I need, and will be even better with a more powerful arm64 processor) or spend more money with Apple!

    Dual-boot likely won't be the case if it ever happens. Most likely it would be a scaled-down version of Mac OS for a tablet-friendly UI that has the ability to go into "Desktop" mode upon attaching a keyboard, similar to how Samsung DEX works.

  • @KrispyKrink

    This is why my iPad is 8 years old and I have no plans to replace it. I could do everything I need to do on an iPad except for 3 apps I’ve been using for 20+ years that are Mac or Linux only. If apple wanted, these could work in stage manager but they don’t want to.

  • @giothed00d

    I feel like a great solution would be to have what I like to call ‘hybrid apps’. If you’re using an ipad in its traditional form. It’s like a blown up iPhone. But if you hookup mnk it would switch to desktop mode

  • @empedance1933
    @empedance1933 25 днів тому

    I 100% agree because it's why I've loved the idea of the Surface line: it runs full windows, and they also don't necessarily lock it to just windows as it's very possible to put Linux, Android, or hell even MacOS (though that'll gradually go away as apple moves towards arm). Of course it does have some driver quirks but let me tell you it works much better than you'd expect. But their build quality isn't perfect and the fact they closed almost all of the physical Microsoft stores except a handful in the usual bigger cities you'd expect, make dealing warranty stuff that much more annoying. If apple does this id definitely shell out for a higher tier iPad pro

  • @stewartlogie

    Don’t need the full MacOS, just some developer kit that allows companies to port their apps more easily from MacOS to iPadOS would fit the bill. That would surely boost overall iPad+Mac sales.

    I’m not in need of an upgrade right now but, when the time comes for my Mac or my iPad, I’m seriously tempted to go for a Surface. I’m tired of having to buy two different products, and considering that I’m not upgrading right now but I still have many years left with my current iPad and Mac, at that point windows on arm might have become actually good.

    I have an m1 pro macbook alongside my studio. My main use case for the macbook is transferring and moving files on professional film/video shoots.

    Dual boot is obvious as you say and perhaps a bigger iPad. I have bought iPad Pro M4 13 inch but with 256 storage, so I hope that if dual boot is introduced it will not be limited to 1 or 2 terabytes. I agree will everything that you said for once. When I want to do very serious work I use my 27 inch iMac because of the massive screen. It would be nice if I could connect my dual boot iPad to a studio display??

  • @ARodriguezSoto

    Also, the dual boot should only work when you have it docked to the Keyboard and once you detach it or simply press an iPadOS icon it goes into iPad mode

    All it needs is to be an iPad when it's in your hand. And to have an expanded OS when it's docked. If it's in the Magic Keyboard, or docked onto some kind of magnetic desk dock, it becomes a desktop experience.

  • @RetinaSprite

    I think we could eventually see this happen but I could also see Mac apps slowly make their way into the iPad’s App Store. For example, resident evil 8 has that port that works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac (and lists all of them for compatibility in the App Store).
    It sucks though since some Apps like Final Cut are “built for touch” on iPad and are basically different apps with subscription models. I think things will get very interesting once alternative App stores start showing up. I wonder how many developers will add Mac level apps and ignore the App Store completely

  • @Gilamath.
    @Gilamath. 23 дні тому

    I switch back and forth between dual-booting and just an iPadOS boost. Dual-booting would be the easier solution, because you could just keep iPadOS as-is and then just give devices with Mac-level hardware (the iPad Air and iPad Pro) the additional option to run MacOS. But it wouldn't be the most elegant solution, and it would annoy people. Imagine having to remember whether you saved a Word doc to your iPadOS or your MacOS
    If you wanted to be a bit janky, you could boot up MacOS and have it basically emulate iPadOS on a VM but with some shared resources, so the iPadOS running virtually on your MacOS iPad device could access the iPad's storage capacity and the like. So iPads like the Air and Pro ship with MacOS that defaults to a virtual iPadOS, while lower-spec iPads like the base iPad and the Mini just natively run iPadOS. On a MacOS iPad, you could switch in and out of the iPadOS instance kind of like how you can enter and exit Steam's Big Picture mode, and just use native MacOS when you wanted and then jump right back into iPadOS at will. Like I said, it's janky. But it works, and it solves some of the major problems of dual-boot
    And then of course there's the solution I usually prefer: keep iPadOS' UI, and re-work the back end. You could rework MacOS to just give it an iPad UI, but I don't know how well the lower-spec iPads would handle that. Better to just do things like open up file directories, give terminal access, and maybe rework Mac APIs and iPadOS so they could play nice with each other, allowing us to run Mac apps on iPad. I honestly doubt that Apple will ever do that last one, but the first two are relatively easy to implement and would solve 90% of people's issues while still keeping the iPad like an iPad

    I’d even settle for a very powerful DEX-like mode which runs a lite-Mac os like interface. Maintain iPad OS on the go and when plugged in give the option of a “iPadOS PRO” 😅 environment.
    What I’m really looking forward one day is for the iPhone to be that one device to do everything for a normal consumer. But if for the time being the iPad could start being a more flexible device and be the only personal computer for many people, i’d happily ditch my Mac for my basic everyday tasks.
