Does anyone have an iPad Pro? Wasteful if you have MacBook?

[macDonalds]

I'm curious how many of you also have an iPad Pro. I'm interested in the touch capabilities and for couch and bed surfing. Does anyone supplement their MacBook with an iPad Pro? Did you find it useful or not?

I use my Ipad Pro as a high quality media consumption and ereader.

If I could only have one, it would be the MacBook (or notebook in general).

10.5 IPP and MB. Two different beasts. I use a K811 with the IPP and I still need a real laptop for many things.

I had my iPP before my MacBook and then ended up selling it a little while ago. Just felt redundant although it was a very nice device.

I have both but they fulfil very different needs. I still find that there's lots of my tasks which I can do much quicker or easier on a laptop rather than the iPad. That's not the same for everyone as I know quite a few people who use their iPad Pro as their main machine now, but its not possible for everyone.

Yes, I have both - IPP is pretty much redundant (both sizes) it's still not a laptop replacement device.
I use it for the odd YouTube video and maybe a quick email check. Anything else I'm reaching for the laptop.

I had a 10.5" but sold it almost immediately after getting the 12".

It's funny - I *almost* went iPad only. I had a trade+cash lined up for my 15" Pro for a 12.9" iPad Pro. After having the 10.5" for a bit, and getting more into my work flow (law student & patent agent) I am sooooo glad I didn't. The iPad is an amazing piece of tech, and there are times that I miss it, but the input of data with your finger as the pointer - even in tandem with the Smart Keyboard - is just too slow to be productive.
