Everybody has different needs when it comes to computers. My iPad has replaced my pc a long time ago. When my pc broke I delayed the purchase of a new pc for three years because of the iPad. When I finally got a pc (or rather a Mac with m1 chip) and after a year since, I still consider the iPad to be my primary device, the Mac is good for some app that do not do exist on the iPad. The iPad also has some apps that cannot be found on either Mac or pc. To me, the iPad is simply the best computer I’ve ever had. As Apple adds more features it can only become better, eventually the iPad will be the future computer for all. The iPad is simply too ahead of its time for most people to appreciate it and there are still many old generation people who are fixating to pc but eventually they will die out.

    It need 5G + Telephony.
    It's a huge market right there.

    Adding telephony will give the iPad its best multipurpose function.

      The problem with iPadOS is it cannot replace MacOS/Windows OS.

      It's not supporting Full version of capable Office, and other software.

                All every features copied from Androi.

                Apple fans users called all these features gimmicks, now they can't live without it.

                If apple removes these features, they will lose 60% off its customers.

                Apple gets charged twice the price off features used by patent owners, because everyone hates thos patent troll company.

                Even Qualcoom refused too banned or not let use there 5G, cry baby apple took qualcoom too court.

                Lmfaoooooooooooo

                  Similarly iPad Pro is also a true laptop replacement execpt limited by software. There is no support for final cut, logic pro, blender, krita etc. Professional softwares.

                  So in reality Microsoft just want a better hardware like that of Apple M series. In future there will be powerful chips so surface lineup will be good.

                  Whereas Apple will always keep iPad in a disadvantage as compared to macOS, because if they made application support in iPad as good as macOS then their own MAC sales will be greatly reduced.

Like you just replied to that silly "Good GPU" comment before I did. Yes, you're right, I don't have an ID, I wish GSMArena make it easier to add in profile pics. But, you forgot the most important key... You can see my account is verified, with the verified check and so does a few others. I may not have an ID, but I'm not anonymous since I'm regularly commenting on this site from time to time. Your point doesn't hit off the park really well as you expected, buddy.

                          Powerful GPU is needed only for gaming and thats not the purpose of laptops. Even the people who write the games use Desktop computers.

                          There is nothing any work that needs laptop needs powerful GPU for the work. Well there actually is something but that is like maybe 5% of all laptop users who use it for work

                                  Really curious which other One UI features they are going to “invent” this time, after having been “inventing” them for years now.
                                  But instead of “inventing” One UI features, Apple should start with “inventing” Android basics such as a file system.

                                    SShock, 03 Jun 2022So? Just because it's major browser doesn't mean ... moreSomeone has to pay for this added process. There are less Safari users to target to warrant this additional cost. Pretty straight forward.

                                    However... If Safari didn't suck, it'd probably have more users and justify the additional cost.

                                      iPadOS multitasking experience is not the only problem for iPadOS it needs a redesign to work more like a stock android with no restrictions That's why I use my Tab s7+ more than my IPad pro 3rd generation. I would never believe that an Android tablet would be more enjoyable to use and to get a lot more done with no constraints even though android tablets need more polish on some apps but I use my Tab s7+ with no hindrances.😁😅😂
