      They don't have design flaw like you have in iPad pro. You see the regular iPad or iPhone doesn't bennnd as it doesn't have design flaw, iPad pro does... And they need to fix it

What a delusional hater. iPad apps are designed to run spesifically on iPads. Windows apps aren't designed to be prioritized on fluid performance on portable level performance like 15W CPUs, and majority Windows tablets powered by such (or even smaller) power.

I had it for 2 years without issues. Now it's used by someone else for about the same time and they don't even know it's "breakable". Yet it's still in use and not broken in half. Some just don't care because they know they won't be sitting on their tablet or bending it in half while using it. Just the same how ROG 5 phone will still be bought by many even though it's also shitty when it comes to structural integrity.

                        Besides, it shouldn't be a criteria of judging a tablet! Nvm... i know, you are as obsess to Apple as Apple fanboys. So long as it has a Apple Logo its bad in your eyes right?
