0-30 tabs open on a tablet...
And blame Apple for using a tablet like that...
This is a clear example of Apple bashing in action (
incidentally by the same people on the forum).
My advice: buy a MacBook. With 8 Gb of RAM and a blazing fast SSD you could enjoy 20-30 tabs with no refresh.
Oh gosh if you could read what I wrote it would be lovely.
You started with your usual safari tab refreshes don't matter argument, so I suggested that people use their iPads differently to you and in ways where tab reloading would be a major annoyance. The point I was making was that there are a huge number of ways that people use the internet and tabs, and in many of those ways tab reloading is an issue.
I hardly see pointing out that some people will find tab reloading unacceptable on premium devices as apple bashing. Defending Apple on decisions that are purely for profit and not for the benefit of the customer is apple defending though.
I have a Macbook Pro which i use for my browsing, as you can see from my signature. However, given Apple went on and on how the new pro was a perfect PC replacement, expecting it to keep numbers of tabs open is not too much of a stretch anyway. Perhaps not 30, but over 10 at least.
You are playing down what is a major issue for many people, and one that has occurred because of Apple's margin chasing. There is only one reason that the 9.7 inch iPad Pro doesn't have 4GB of ram, and that is to push margins up.

The fact that more people are more likely to multitask on a 13" iPad than a 10" iPad. And that apps designed for the 13" model are pushing more pixels. That is more likely the reason than Apple saving a few cents a tablet.
So what is putting 4GB of ram on the 9.7 inch iPad going to make the experience worse for people? Of course its for money saving - that is the only advantage, it costs less to build. Its about margins, and then reducing longevity.
