A photo above is my iPad Pro 11-inch of the first generation, please don't take care of that Yuzu-san is walking on the Magic Keyboard. He usually walks on the keyboard to remind me he is there.

Anyway, do you guys still hope to compare the productivity of the iPad with the computers called "Personal Computer"...? I'm sure that it's no longer the thing to compare.

I've already been exhusted to discuss how great the iPad is with people who're interested in understandable productivity and price.

I sometimes find people who compare the iPad with the cheap and crap computers powered by the Windows. At least, there's no value to compare the iPad with those sorts of computers. Ok, ok, you may want to say that how high the productivity of the current computers and the Windows are. For those sorts of people, I have nothing to say. I know that it doesn't make any sense to tell it to those people.

Though I pasted a photo of the ThinkPad above, I like the traditional ThinkPad. I don't like the current ThinkPad though.

Anyway, However, if you're the one who only have smartphones as computer and plan to buy an new computer except smartphone for the first time, today's topic could be just for you.

Or if you're interested in the user experience of the iPad, today's topic also may be for you.

For people who hope to carry your computers, for instance school or office, in addition every rooms of your home.

For people who're like the heading of this section, the iPad is just for you. If possible, I recommend you to get your own iPad with the Magic Keyboard. It will work enough for you. But I think it had better reading below more before which to buy. There's gonna be some more hint and some more issues to consider.

For people who can ignore the desktop coumputers even if someone mentions how powerful they are.

Until about 10 years ago, many people bought mainly the desktop computers. Because they were more powerful than the laptop computers if the prices were almost same.

I know price is the important factor for consumers. But if you can pay $1,000, there're already both options, the iPad or the traditional computer. Which one do you prefer? I recommend the iPad. But before making purchase for the iPad, I'll suggest couple warnings below. So please check them.

People who absolutely need the computers except the iPad.

This is me. I usually do a lot of things with the iPad though, my work cannot be completed only with the iPad. That's because of my occupation. I am a professional creator who need to code, sometimes need to create designs by myself using the Adobe CC fully. I'm also a professional UI/UX designer. I'm not allowed to show my clients something unprofessional-level.

Nowadays, the Photoshop and the illustrator are available on the iPad as well as the Mac though, they're still not same to the Mac Edition. What users can do as results may be almost same though, I think those apps haven't been enough optimized under the standard user experience of the iPad. In addition, the Adobe XD is still not unavailable on the iPad yet. Those apps are necessary at all costs for my case.

To be honest, actually I haven't found the best apps to do UI/UX design, coding, and some more. There're some apps to do those, but the experience of those apps are still worse than the apps which make me be able to do same stuff on the Mac. That's only why I use the Mac.

If I didn't need them all, I wouldn't buy any more new Mac only for work. Maybe.

A lot of works that can be parfectly done only with the iPad.

Opossitly, joining video meetings can be done only with the iPad. Creating/editing documents or taking notes can be done as well. Managing tasks and managing schedule can be done as well as the Mac. There's no difference between the iPad or the Mac. Emails, the Slack, messages and so on as well.

Ok, I'm gonna tell you the one big fact. Actually I've written almost all articles here with the iPad this year, especially after the Magic Keyboard came at least. I don't remember if there're any articles written by the Mac. This fact clearly shows how much I use the iPad except special work which the Mac is so necessary like I mentioned above.


If you hope to make your life graceful with a new computer, I strongly recommend the iPad. But wait, is your all purposes that you hope to do with computer clear? First of all, make them clear. Then you'll see what you should buy.

I hope it'll be the iPad. I hope to.
