![]() That big of a leap can’t help but recast the iPad’s development over the years. It is easily the best general purpose laptop I’ve used in half a decade. The M1 MacBook Air is fast, responsive, has no fan, runs any Mac app I throw at it (including Intel apps) very quickly, and even can run some iPad apps (though that experiment isn’t going super well). In short, Apple’s silicon didn’t just catch the Mac up to the iPad it catapulted the Mac beyond the iPad. Now, I think more and more people are going to join me in looking at the iPad and wondering why it can’t have the flexibility and power of a Mac. Before, we’d look at a MacBook and wonder why it can’t have the power and battery life of an iPad. But after the release of the first MacBooks with Apple’s own M1 Arm-based silicon, there’s a strange inversion happening. In some ways, it seems likely that Apple will deliver, at least with the larger 12.9-inch iPad Pro. Given the relatively minor spec bumps that we got on last year’s iPad Pros, this time around, we’re hoping for a more substantial update. Today, we’re expecting a grab bag of new products from Apple, headlined by new iPad Pros.
