I appreciate that it actually managed to get 1/4 the sales that Surface did in the same amount of time, which are already abysmal, so that says a lot about the ipad.

This picture is so great. 3 absolute fails of design from a company who used to pride themselves on it.
I must admit, I did like the MacBook though.
why couldn't they just put os x on it instead of shitty ios?
>>52012708
I appreciate apple giving me a good laugh.

Literally, for what. My niece has an iPad and she got bored of it already. She offered to give it to me, so I can test websites on it.
She literally has no use for it anymore. She's playing all day with her phone now. The tablet is just collecting dust. It was just a fad, a gimmicky gadget nobody really needs anymore.

steve jobs no matter how much a dick wouldn't have allowed this shit. It's like the Apple flopage crap from the 90s is coming back.

I honestly think they might have made it too big.
11.9" might have been a better size, after seeing one in person i was amazed at how unwieldily it was

I love my Xperia tablet.
I don't use it too often, but it's fantastic for 2 very specific purposes:
Reading manga
Following cooking recipes in the kitchen
I don't want to drag my laptop into the kitchen where it might take some collateral damage, but the tablet is robust.

>Reading manga
I have zero interest in anything anime related.
>Following cooking recipes in the kitchen
I can do that on my phone.

You can also read books.
>I can do that on my phone.
Yes, you can, but it's more convenient on a tablet with a stand. It makes it a stationary recepie book, and not a device you need to pick up to carefully read on.
I don't want my dirty fingers all over my phone in the middle of making stuff. With a tablet I set it down and I can easily read. With a phone I'd have to either pick it up, or bend down to get close enough to read the text, and even then there's a higher chance I'd have to scroll.

>tfw have tablet for netflix, web browsing
>have phone for on the go browsing, music
>have ereader for books
>have desktop for gaming, comfortable computing and browsing, media management, writing
>have newer thinkpad for doing the same thing outside of the house
>have old thinkpad to use linux on for fun
how do people live with only a laptop and phone? or just a tablet and no ereader?
>>52014822
i have;
>desktop for everything
>phone for telling the time and looking at porn in bed, also a flashlight
>laptop which i use if i go overseas or something
an ereader sounds nice, but i'm not sure where i'd use one
a tablet i can't think of a use for at all

the tablet is probably the least used device when I'm not at school. Using it is so fucking pleasant though. I have a zenpad s 8.0 and the screen is beautiful and it's light as shit.
and yeah, ereading makes me actually interested in reading again because its so much easier than holding fuckhuge books

One of the best memes of late. It has potential.
>>52012708
no thanks, here is what the average iPad Pro user looks like

Where The Verge burns Apple, they do it so subtlety but obviously, it's lovely.

Fucking millennials, I swear
I use a tablet for reading pirated ebooks because real ones are pretty fucking expensive here and I'll get raped by shipping and customs. I'd love to buy the real thing though.

I own several physical books and it fucking sucks for traveling. Even just one book and I end up crushing pages no matter how carefully I pack it. Then there's the mildly annoying wrist strain when reading bigger books.
I only buy shorter novels on paperback. Something like Infinite Jest is like hauling a piece of furniture everywhere.

I love how everyone excuses this fat fuck for being morbidly obese and not having a legitimate job because it's "satire." Like suddenly, it's okay to be a total waste of space and a fat piece of shit as long as you're self aware.

When I first saw that Apple was making something called the iPad Pro, I figured "Huh, it must be kind of like the Surface Pro, running full OSX"
But lol nope. Just iOS. It's just a bigger iPad. That's pretty much it.
