Can the iPad replace your MacBook for work

Have you ever wanted to remove all the trash from your desktop, leave it only iPad and enjoy the simplicity and minimalism? From a technological point of view, we have moved forward so far that at the moment can easily get rid of excess heap of wires and peripheral devices.

Ben Brooks recently I shared his experience on the iPad without any additional equipment. Before leaving for the weekend, he did not want to take a laptop and a tablet, Apple has decided to do.

Like most managers, it is the day you have to write a huge number of messages, and, first of all, e-mails. He often uses the program OmniFocus and various web-services. According to him, to perform these tasks accurately tablet should be enough.

Ben could take in any way the keyboard (it has them in stock were a few), but he liked to print on a not very compact CODE model. Although it is not the most convenient solution in the road, and yet, for typesetting large text this keyboard seemed to him perfect.

How does it all work? When you have at hand Mac, you can do a lot of things, not focusing attention on them. Brooks noted that By doing the same operations on the iPad, he coped with them slowly and wrote less, but the quality of the work done at the expense of only improve.

Perhaps due to the fact that Ben has been installed on the iPad beta version of iOS 8, CODE podglyuchivaet keyboard. First, the tablet has warned that it is not supported, although it klaivatura still worked, then the equipment is just the beginning of the shut down periodically. So he, in the end, had to use a wireless keyboard Apple Wireless.

As already mentioned, Brooks felt he was focused on the job, but it does the job more slowly. Despite this, by the end of the day, he did everything he had planned. Of course, there were things that he could not perform, but the matter is that there were only bugs iOS beta releases.

iPad has been one of the favorite devices of Ben, but he was amazed that for myself opened. It turns out that during the day it did not require any devices other than Apple tablet. This does not mean that you should not use a laptop computer, or that the iPad is the best tool for the job. Just this tablet to cope with all the tasks extremely well. And new opportunities that can offer us iOS 8, Will only increase its potential.

The only thing that is perhaps lacking in Apple tablet now, it's larger screen. Many expect the appearance 12-13-inch tabletWho can replace the laptop completely.

Here is a list of those things that iPad proved to be a better, Ben's opinion:

• Reading. With the iPad, you can stand still, leaning against the wall, giving you a real freedom of action.
• Twitter. Brooks could tear your eyes away from the social network. Rather than view the news feed every 5 minutes, he did it once per hour.
• Tab. In Safari, it was a lot of tabs, which, of course, and moved to the iPad. But there are also not so attracted attention as a browser on iOS, they are hidden from view.

But what iPad was bad:

• Uncomfortable viewing emails. The iPhone has a lot of email-clients, but they are sorely lacking under the iPad. Ben did not have the ability to quickly turn the next letter in the task in OmniFocus. Besides, it was very difficult to quickly move messages to other folders.
• Working with images. Despite the presence of different graphic editors, Mac copes with this task much better.
• Edit the code in the website using the tablet was very dreary procedure.

With the advent of iOS 8 extensions, The gap between the Mac and the iPad will disappear in the blink of an eye. Many users do not even know how the iPad can cope well with daily tasks that almost all perform on the Mac. Currently the owner of Apple tablet does not need the more powerful application, enough to customize them for yourself and thoroughly explore the many opportunities that they offer a ready-made products.

And in the next year with the purchase of a new device to the user snaps incredibly difficult choice - Mac or iPad.
