I can print from the iPad Pro. I’ve even completed my taxes and sent them to the Canada Revenue Agency on the Apple iPad Pro. I can edit my photos and my footage on the Apple iPad Pro. I can pretty much do everything on the iPad Pro with carrying around a 5 pound laptop and all the other necessary hardware that you need with a laptop.
The battery life on the 2018 Apple iPad Pro is simply amazing. I can go at least 12 hours without needing a charge. And that’s going hard on the iPad Pro from editing photos and videos to watching YouTube on it. I am really impressed with Face ID after being sceptical about it. I had my doubts about FaceID working properly and slowly but it’s fast and reliable. The 512GB hard drive is enough storage for myself since I pay Apple $12.99 a month for 2TB of backup storage.
Apps are plentiful and most cost less than $10 and do what I need. Affinity Photo cost less than $30 (one time purchase) and is a great Adobe Photoshop replacement. LumaFusion is fantastic for less than $30 as well and replaces FCP X or any Adobe product. I’m not a full time video editor or movie type so I don’t need all the bells and whistles. I just use the iPad Pro for photo and footage editing for my small photography business and basically media consumption.
The Apple Keyboard Folio is great as well. Keys are awesome and it feels well built. It is no backlit which makes it hard sometimes in a dark place. You know where to place your hands if you know how to type. I was taught in high school way back in 1990 how to type so having a backlit keyboard is not that big of a deal for me. The special functions keys are missing as well but I am not missing them whatsoever.
Honestly the only thing that is missing is support for external hard drives. I wish the iPad Pro did have another USB-C type port as I’d like to use more than one external device at a time. Other than that, the 2018 Apple iPad Pro is a fantastic device.
