The vision of 2010, however, a few weeks ago into the open again, as Jobs' successor Tim Cook introduced the iPad Pro - a 12.9-inch tablet, which rebuilt with keyboard dock and stylus pen for a laptop-like structures leaves. This time, the Apple CEO himself tried the old formula and spoke of it to make the laptop obsolete with its new device. Even Google has with the pixel C is a tablet with a very similar concept in the pipeline - only with Android instead of iOS.
Raises the tablet really the laptop from?
No question: Tablets are not my favorite devices, but they have their raison d'être. They are ideally suited as a mobile displays and serve as a mini-computer for surfing and films-shows. Every now and then they accompany us even in everyday working life in meetings or serve for smaller presentations. However, when real tools they are only a compromise in almost every respect. Is not changed by the iPad Pro nothing. Pluggable Fault Tastaturen and stylus pens are nice additions, but they are not a new idea and were already not from the outset an unqualified success.
Apple and Google have a problem,
Publicly Apple and Google might turn up their noses on Windows 10 though, a real alternative to meaningful connection between desktop PC and tablet they have with their own operating systems, but not to offer. This is quite a problem: Those who visit product presentations of large PC manufacturers these days, sees there one thing in particular: Ultra Slim and stylish laptops that can also be used as foldable or removable displays Tablets thanks. Instead of a rickety fabric keyboard that still needs to be purchased separately also, they have a real keyboard and mostly all the necessary connections for mice, hard drives and external displays. The tablet is in these cases, only one of many features of the PCs.
The argument of better mobility of tablets compared to laptops I do not accept. In what way a 13-inch tablet with an extra large folding keyboard and stylus is more mobile than an equal Notebook? Sure, Windows 10 like in tablet mode still far be as elegant as iOS or Android - as a desktop operating system, it is both but vastly superior. The same applies to Mac OS X, however, which in turn does not have a tablet mode. Total offer laptops with tablet mode currently simply the better compromise than tablets with laptop mode.
Where the software come from?
Another sticking point is the software. Clearly it is possible to implement programs as well as professional apps. However, these cost like to several hundreds or even several thousand euros. So long, however, an app store, which is mainly dominated by applications between 0 and 99 Cent, is the only distribution channel for such software, many developers might be discouraged. And make no mistake about it: Just among students pirated professional software are often the only way to ever get to these programs. Here pushes a closed operating system like iOS already basically a bolt. Good for the developers, bad for many people who come in this way at all for the first time in contact with many professional programs.
A dearly bought compromise
And then there's the price: Of course you can always consider and evaluate a device regardless of the sales price - many testers do the same thing. I find that a bit unrealistic but because the client is very comfortable when asked what he gets for his money.
When iPad Pro almost 1200 euros are due for even the cheapest model with 32 GB of expandable memory not included keyboard and Edit. Objectively, the tablet is quite a good device, just as my colleague Alexander noted in his test - but it is a device with many compromises that are just too blatant for the called price. A decent laptop for mobile working there are in many cases already for half the money, and even with touch display and Edit many notebooks is priced significantly below the supposed pro-Tablet.
What remains is a device that lacks a real audience for me. Please do not misunderstand, as a tablet, the iPad Pro a very good device with top performance, thoughtful user interface and great processing. But as a tablet, it is also much too expensive and not dramatically better than other high-quality models. As a laptop replacement it is not good really. And is the iPad Pro only representative of many other tablets that follow a similar approach. Finally, can be purchased for the Xperia Tablet Z4 an additional keyboard for more than 100 euros. At the end but remains only in dearly bought compromise.
