> Yes, and I wouldn't be buying one of those for light reading or taking notes in Notion, either.
I'm using it for work, so I am either getting it reimbursed or provided by my employer (in my case), or if I'm running a solo business/self employed (as plenty of creators are) you can get tax credits and a partial reimbursement as it's being used for work as well.
Like I mentioned before, the target demographic is Creators or Executives, but also (increasingly) schools.
> Both of those systems have more flexibility
Absolutely, but that flexibility is a security vector for most non-technical users.
There's a reason companies spend 7-8 figures on XDRs like CRWD/S1/Cortex, or are looking to Secure Browsers like Surf, Talon, or Arc.
No offense to GP, but GP made me wonder if the creative side of the story is just a massive fluff to hide the fact that iPad are built for consultancy tasks first. Having to resort to a premium creator product because your job demands it sounds like an awesome justification for buying a tablet.
Which of those things requires an expensive, top-of-the-line tablet?
