Still ignoring facts such as those I enumerated . . . Several feature length films shot on iPhone and completed on iPads. . . But you stick with :

"Final Cut Pro?”

Those films were award winning. At least one garnered Academy Award nominations. . .

Storage Space? (LOL)

You did not bother to read a word I wrote, did you? I thought not. You are so certain in your absolute ignorance. . . You don’t even know what the connector on the new iPad Pro is, do you? 3DMark is the gold standard, dealing with a cult follower or nervous shareholder here. Expandable memory? . . .

Needing proprietary peripherals. . . Needing proprietary peripherals. . .

3DMark is useful to test only one specific area of function, rollo. . . and it doesn’t cover all devices or uses. It is hardly a universal goldstandardExcept for that one thing that mostly gamers care about. You look at tech reviews around the world and they almost universally use Geekbench to compare devices’ speed and performance and 3DMark only in the one area where it excels.

So then like all anti-Apple ideologues who don’t have facts, you resort to ad hominem attack to denigrate your opponent who does know what he is talking about. You obvious don’t.

What "proprietary peripherals" do you, in your Apple Derangement Syndrome, think are necessary to connect to WIFI, Bluetooth, or to USB-C devices? Please enlighten us.

What facts? You ignored mine.

Full version of Photoshop? Can you run Plugins (Ignored that) Memory limitations (Ignored that)? Some are open source, hence, not a full version (Ignored that).

Geekbench like another synthetic benchmark only measures how well the hardware runs THROUGH Geekbench (Ignored all that). The same way that 3dmark or other UL mark measures (All synthetic). Quality and versatility in terms of FPS and such is why 3D mark is *somewhat* (Emphasis) impartial.

What about storage space? Another Proprietary peripheral or cloud crap that id not BUILT IN. Laptops and desktops are more economical and upgradable compared to any Pad.

Ad homiens really, the only logical fallacy is a headline that states "I-Pad pro blows away laptops and desktops" which you support. I have all three (Since I am objective here) I can safely say you and your Apple propaganda are full of BS.

Never got around to NVIDIA, figures.

Not requiring proprietary peripherals means I can find cheaper 3rd party alternatives that do not play this upgrade scheme your company uses. Congratulations on matching the Xbones upgrade/new flashy IPAD, one of my desktops that is 8 years old that can be futher upgraded is a heck of lot powerful and versatile than what you are pimping.

Again, let me know when 4k Skyrim with mods, and open source is available.

Your arrogance completely ignores what hardware is all about in the end.
