"Data from Tom’s Guide Geek bench comparison article and Laptop Magazine, updated November 5, 2018, using latest model competitor’s equipment: I.e. a Microsoft Surface Pro 6 with a Core i5 CPU ($997) and even the Core i7 version of the Dell XPS 13 ($1130), and an Apple MacBook Pro 13" with Intel i5 ($1299), so contrary to your snide hints, this is comparing current laptops as of today in similar price ranges from Microsoft, Dell, and Apple."

Using Geekbench benchmarks, lol.

Again, can this maxi-pad run Skyrim (8 year old game) in 4k at 60fps while running mods that require extensions (A lot of RAM too) which of course needs open source?

Can this pad even run Final Cut Pro (For the Apple MacBook fan boys). What are the 3d benchmarks? What is the rendering quality, not just the speed, I would rather have high quality rendering and not disingenuous "tricks" that render 1080p to 1080p in a few seconds, lol.

Does this pad run a FULL version of Photoshop with PLUGINS and Lightroom with PLUGINS/Presets?

Does the hard drive have at least 3 terabytes? Plenty more, article titles, especially the one you link to, are just as bas as democrats saying socialism blows away the free market.

Maxi-pad is ok, however will never replace the options AND power (Which the full spectrum of benchmarks are obviously missing) of desktops and laptops (Storage space kills everything by default) priced the same.

Adobe is releasing a full version of Photoshop for the IPad Pro, announced with the introduction of the 2018 iPad Pro.

No, because Skyrim has not been released for the iPad, but there are games that have equivalent graphics or better at those frame rates for the iPad. . . Are you at all aware that the iPad Pro contains a Neural Net Processor capable of FIVE TRILLION decisions per second? Thought not. . .

Can this pad even run Final Cut Pro (For the Apple MacBook fan boys). What are the 3d benchmarks? What is the rendering quality, not just the speed, I would rather have high quality rendering and not disingenuous "tricks" that render 1080p to 1080p in a few seconds, lol.

The quality is superb. Are you at all aware that several full length professional feature films have been shot on iPhones and edited on iPads? Again, I thought not. You really don’t know what you are talking about, do you?

Does the hard drive have at least 3 terabytes? Plenty more, article titles, especially the one you link to, are just as bas as democrats saying socialism blows away the free market.

As a matter of fact, an IPad can connect to numerous hard drives/ storage devices. Mine has direct connection to my main Mac’s multiple terabytes of storage, and to my iCloud’s two Terabytes of storage. I have five terabytes of local storage available to my iPad Pro on my home WIFI, and my office WIFI has 12 terabytes. So your point is worthless besides being ignorant.

Using Geekbench benchmarks, lol.

Geek bench IS the GOLDSTANDARD in comparison between unlike platforms or even similar platforms. It avoids the subjectivity of the differences in applications and goes directly to the hardware capabilities and cuts out observer bias. Your denigration of Geekbench is just more of your ignorance on parade.

Geekbench result for the iPad Pro with Apple A12X Bionic processor.


What are the 3d benchmarks?

3D real time rendering on an Apple iPad Pro 2018 in AR real-time environment.
