Procreate.
For the first time in my life I’m actually considering an iPad. They have never held my interest in the slightest in the past. I’m really intrigued by this one. I’ve been holding out for the 14 inch MacBook Pro but may just do the iPad/magic keyboard combo instead.
(I like to draw and tried digital drawing for the first time two weeks ago - I’m only 39 but my age is DEF showing lmao 😂)
Funny how they leaked the white magic keyboard in the product video couple of minutes before the guy actually announced it 😃
I wonder how they'd do these apps given they have to run on such a small(er) iPad screen using larger, touchable objects.
Procreate on the iPad is amazing. So powerful and so much fun! And the pressure sensitive Pencil is a dream. And there are other terrific drawing/design apps: Concepts, Affinity Designer and more. There's a learning curve, but your experience with physical media will help a lot. (For me, taking Skillshare classes in Procreate and Designer has definitely helped me understand the potential of these apps and has helped get me more comfortable with their user interfaces.)
Add the Magic Keyboard and you have a powerful and portable tool for all kinds of creating.
The white keyboard is for display only at the apple store

I noticed that also. I thought it would be a new magic keyboard, maybe something that adds unlocks OSX Big Sur since the iPad Pro has an M1 chip. Next time
That’s the final piece for me. I’ve been moving increasingly to iPad Pro as my main device with my iMac on my desk for Final Cut Pro and some of the more advanced Photoshop features that haven’t yet (yet!) come to the iPadOS version.
I started watching this event expecting to finally replace my iMac but I left convinced that I won’t bug another Mac at all. The M1 chip (not a souped up A chip) is a good indicator that we’ll see Apple’s pro apps make it to iPad the same with iPad apps made it to the Mac.
As you said, why have all that power (and Thunderbolt) if it’s not going to run Apple’s own power hungry apps? This iPad Pro was clearly made to run Final Cut, Xcode and Logic. I’m looking forward to WWDC more than ever!
Just wish I wasn't so into photography. RAW file workflow is a PITA on iPad.
This is something that Apple needs to answer really soon! I have an unopened MK waiting to be returned if this is the case.
That will change starting with WWDC. M1 + 8/16 GB RAM are in the new iPad Pros now. The Elephant in the Room is becoming bigger than the room...
The black one doesn’t stay pristine no matter how well you take care of it, so I’m assuming the same for the white one. It’s not the color it’s the material itself that sucks.
