I'm genuinely impressed by the quality of iPadOS 26. I recently picked up a used 11" iPad Pro M3 + Magic Keyboard, and it's almost like using a smaller MacBook (in the best way). The best thing - if i take it out of the case its still a great entertainment and surfing device.

The iPad Pro powers my Studio Display, handles my Switch via capture card, and window management finally works well.

If there were a proper native IDE (not just VS Code in a browser), I’d seriously think about ditching my MacBook Pro.

For non-developers, this could easily replace a laptop.
