Apple's M4 iPad Pro is INCREDIBLY powerful, but is iPadOS good enough to make it a solid choice in 2024? Or is it time for Apple to REALLY step it up and give the M4 iPad Pro macOS support?

    MacOS when on the keyboard, iPadOS when off
  • @Generic321
    I want terminal, disk utility and a calculator. The basics shouldn't be this agonizing to beg for.
  • @ZayasRaymond1
    My M1 iPad Pro still runs like new. Can’t justify the upgrade until a radical change to iPadOS.
  • @jutleej4175
    There is no way, they will announce macOS for iPads in WWDC 2024. They would never release Final Cut Pro 2 for iPadOS, when you can get full Final Cut Pro just a month later. What I can imagine, is that they are developing a "macOS like interface". Which still will be iPadOS, but which a better filesystem, better mouse and window manager.

    Why launch the M4 on a Netflix and chill tab
  • @Drew1218s
    Even when the m4 comes to Mac’s I’m not sure that I’ll upgrade. The m4 finally looks like a nice boost over the m1 but my m1 still feels very fast. I’m content with what I have for now.
  • @Epicgamer_Mac
    I want iPadOS to get a better file manager, window manager, the ability to connect to more peripherals and devices, and a terminal for devs and people who work with code like me as a CS student. The way they could do this is just, when it detects you’ve connected a Magic Keyboard, it reveals a new hidden page on the Home Screen that is basically a Mac desktop. So all you have to do is swipe over from the side to get into “Mac mode”.

    If I could run desktop app like my phpstorm IDE for coding then I would replace my MacBook pro right away. Without desktop app , iPad is just a media player device for many people except content creators and artists and music composers.
  • @laxliife
    My M1 iPad Pro runs flawlessly, handles everything this wimpy ipadOS provides. No need to upgrade. I am worried that apple will pull some bullshit and say that only the m4 can run macOS… like the m1 laptops didn’t exist.
  • @AlexanderHowe95
    iPad OS needs widespread MacOS support for ALL M series iPad pros for me to keep my M1 iPad Pro - if they gatekeep this to the M4 I’m out
  • @cameralabs
    I really miss the 11in MacBook, and find iOS doesn't give me the functionality I'm after. So YES, I'd love for the to put MacOS on an iPad for use with one of the keyboards to make a mini laptop.
  • I’m still on my 2020 iPad Pro with the keyboard and pencil. It still looks new. When I bought it, the promise of full Photoshop lured me in. Just this year, they added some good features. I use my iPad as a laptop most of the time, and I jump to my Mac Studio when remote and need the desktop. If the browser on the iPad were the same as on the desktop, it would be awesome, and some features don’t work on the iPad.
  • I think stage manager in the next update should activate something similar to DEX on the galaxy tablets where it’ll go from iPadOS to macOS with just a switch.
  • @WoWdOm18
    I ordered the 13 inch 512 gb pro to replace my 3rd gen iPad Pro. Im really hoping for big updated to IPad OS this year.
  • @chris
    At the beginning I kept waiting for "But Wait, There's More! And if you act now you get a free fondue pot..." But in all seriousness, to answer your question at the end... YES, Apple needs to make iPadOS more PRO to justify the Pro price tag. I am NOT ok paying MBPro prices for a tablet that can't do everything my MBPro can. Their pricing is getting OOC.
  • Waiting to see if Qualcomm delivers on a full Windows 11 experience with the Snapdragon X. I can't wait for Computex. Apple needs the competition. I actually think the iPad Pro getting the most advance tech is because of the shift in priority to the Vision Pro. Vision OS needs the performance efficiency offered by the M4 Silicon.
  • @matiriquelme293
    So that is what microsoft did a long time ago with the surface (way slower though). Apple should have a Samsung dex competitor at least
  • @Ded-Ede
    8:14 I use my iPad Pro with my headless m1 Mac mini with vnc. Please make this possible when I’m on the same Wi-Fi system I can use macOS on iPad Pro as if it was all one cohesive system.
