Wow, as a Surface and an iPad owner I really disagree. The M1 is great. But iOS means that the iPad is mostly a device for media consumption and maybe writing or drawing. It had all the power you need to do that with the A12.

The surface can run JetBrains, Godot, Blender, a bunch of IDEs that make it useful as productivity device for a person in tech. Most people don't need that, so I am sure the iPad will sell great. But there is still a need for laptops/ tablets (whatever weird hybrid that is becoming) that are not locked down.
