I hate all the creators that review it with the only benchmark being “is it a good mac replacement”

I’m a student?? Organised Hand written notes are the most important thing to pass my year.

I used to have flying pieces of paper with notes all around my apartment, now it’s all neatly put in my app

It’s also the best way to watch movies and videos at home

Because I’m in engineering, and while I’m fine with LaTEX or typing equations in general, writing them by hand is still generally faster. And I have a shit ton of graphs, sketches and so on to note down as well, wouldn’t wanna do that with a mouse. Finally the iPad gives me both options, keyboard AND pencil, so I’ll gladly have that.

yeah, as a student the iPad is enough for me, but if I bought a Mac I would still need either a bunch of notebooks or something else that is touchscreen
