![]() If you do not mind having to use iPadOS to do everything (it's possible, but can take more time than using a Mac), then an iPad Pro could be your only computer. iOS also likes to refresh suspended apps after a period of idleness, which means multitasking can be slightly hampered. And while you could get a Magic Keyboard to go along with your iPad Pro, it's pretty expensive (at least $300), and that just adds to the overall cost.Įven though iPadOS has come quite a way since the iPad's debut in 2010, it's still held back by limitations, such as only having three active apps on screen at a time through Split View and Slide Over modes. Meanwhile, even though the iPad Pro comes in a smaller 11-inch size, you get fewer ports, RAM, and must use iPadOS.

For a 256GB 12.9-inch iPad Pro, it costs $1099 for Wi-Fi only (or $899 if you go the smaller route), but again, you only get about 4GB of RAM, one USB-C port, and are limited to iPadOS. While the MacBook Air has a higher starting price point than the iPad Pro, we think it's comparable if you look at similar storage space and capabilities. 12MP with Ultra Wide lens and 4K video and 7MP TrueDepth Camera
