Marques acting like those new iPads aren’t in the office already! 😂

[rickysekhon]

Literally after the event
Marques :- “ok so i have been playing with the iPad’s for couple of weeks”😂😂

"they did fire the car team" lol

Ok, real talk, if they released a Calc app that was a full on TI Inspire or had advanced graphing and financial features! That would bring on SO many college students!!!

[goatapp]

Thanks to the power of the M4. We can now run a calculator on the iPad.🎉

[marcussky]

Marques speaking as though, he doesnt already have one.

I would think this would be the time to introduce native 4K resolution on the iPad Pros since Pros are being used for 4K editing.

[igorsova]

True iPad Pro would have 2 usb-c ports and would run macOS when docked to the keyboard!

[PaulPlay]

Also Photomath (as a calc app) is really awesome I feel like. You scan the calculation, it gives you the answer, displays the steps to get there, displays a graph if needed etc. Super handy for students

The floating Magic Keyboard is definitely USB-C

2:29 Ok now that might be a little too ambitious. We can dream though..

The iPad problem isn’t about hardware… we barely use the power of the current M2. The problem comes from the software limitations. We need an UnifiedOS, some kind of new MacOS version that would have 2 different UI, so we could get the current iPadOS UI style when you’re using the iPad alone, and then as soon as you’re grabbing a precision pointer such the new Pencil, or a Mouse/Trackpad, then you would have the option to switch to a full MacOS UI style, running full MacOS Apps… it wouldn’t be two different OS running in parallel, but instead one MacOS that would have two UI mode, the current MacOS mode when you have precise pointers, and then a simplified UI that would look like the current iPadOS when you’re using your fingers… That would unlock the full potential of a M3/M4 iPad Pro… running full MacOS apps, and therefore driving the need for more powerful hardware in the future (M5, M6, M7…) and turning your iPad Pro into a real MacBook.

OG magic keyboard floating has a USB-C port on the spine

[travish]

I like how you’re playing that you’re not already sitting on the review 😂

My 11-inch M1 still going strong! I'm just dying to see more smart connector accessories. Why has it taken so long?

[EVILBUNNY]

All I ask of for Apple to add brackets, numerator/denominator fractions, and an “Ans” button to the calculator.

If the iPad app has these 3 things then I’ll immediately justify the decades long wait

[JFLEZY]

Man shoutout to Wolfram Alpha. Got me through Calc and Calc 2 in college. Crazy that was 2013

[houlipaints]

Craig Federighi definitely pulled that calculator app answer out of his ass

[fty-ysni]

PLEASE MARQUES PRESSURE APPLE INTO MAKING SMART CONNECTOR ACCESSORIES. USE YOUR INFLUENCE THIS IS MADNESS.

3:45 I mean for starters, it would have to be better than Desmos. 3D modeling and all that
