Has putting Apple silicon in the iPad set unrealistic expectations?
The Mac feels too much like a computer that has felt too overwhelming and the iPad is like the smartphone they have already been using.
At some point in the more or less distant future, the iPad form factor will take over. Just like cars took over trucks a long time ago. Just like most people use a smartphone as their main computer or as their only computer, the iPad will eventually be regarded as “a real computer”, the only computer, if people are willing to add something on top of their iPhone. One day.
