Great all round device, all its missing is a 120 hz display (not really a deal breaker though).

120hz is nice, but FaceID is the deal breaker IMO. Touching a small power button every time you turn on your device is a big usability drop for a tablet.... notably more so if you use a Magic Keyboard.

I didn't think I'd care about FaceID on my iPad until I went from the Pro to the mini. Really hope they update the Air and mini line with FaceID. Since Apple doesn't necessarily mind confusing/convoluted product lines, just add the mini as the third size for the Air and Pro devices, so it can be 13", 11", and 8" for both lines. Keep the standard iPad as the true entry option.

I wonder with the Huawei MatePad Mini if Apple will sooner rather than later "Pro-ify" the mini lol

I have an iPad Air with Touch ID. The biggest problem with Touch ID on the power button is this, and I am the victim of this..........if your touch ID power button gets any kind of scratch or nick, or lands the wrong way, it is RUINED, and no longer works. I accidently dropped my M1 iPad Air a few weeks ago, and the power button barely hit metal, it is utterly fine otherwise. The iPad is fine, but the touch ID no longer works, and is unrepairable. It costs $410 to Apple to replace the entire iPad without Apple Care, and if you try to trade it in, you get no value for it. I am stuck using it as a passcode only device, until I replace it, and can't ever trade it in. That did piss me off.

Why can't we run macOS on these? Apple is not playing fair.

I routinely see Amazon etc. posting to cheap deal offers. Does Apple provide an additional discount to enable Amazon to do this.
I'm just wondering if Apple are using this an an avenue to push more sales.
One thing for certain is that Apple is picking up their sale numbers quite aggressively in the last 3-6 months. I feel like, along with the Neo, Apple are working on lower cost products to increase their sales and revenue.

why do you want to?

it would probably throttle pretty bad
