![]() ![]() I found Stage Manager to be very impressive during my hands-on time with the iPadOS 16 beta releases. Stage Manager is a great multitasking tool coming to iPadOS 16 and macOS Ventura. Stage Manager also allows you to use the iPad with an external display to extend the desktop. In summary, Stage Manager gives you a new way to multitask by putting the app you’re working on front and center while letting you operate many windows at once and gathering them together into a single pile. To that end, Apple is introducing a feature called Stage Manager to both iPadOS 16 and macOS Ventura that can help enhance your productivity with an iPad. However, we also need suitable laptop/desktop-quality software to bring it all together. Hardware and accessories are necessary components for turning tablets into potential laptop replacements. And while the touchpad is responsive enough, it lacks the precision of a traditional laptop touchpad. The small grey circle cursor that appears on-screen is nowhere near as functional or responsive as a traditional arrow cursor. As I said, those with large hands may find the keyboard too small. ![]() The Magic Keyboard largely serves its purpose but it’s still not perfect. The Apple Magic Keyboard is a vital component for turning an iPad into a laptop replacement. Like I said up top, this is the same processor found in the recently released MacBook Air and MacBook Pro 13-inch. Another report from analyst Jeff Pu also claims we’ll see an M2 Pro version of the iPad Pro later this year. iPad Pro 2022 as a laptop: PerformanceĪ report from 9to5Mac (opens in new tab) says the iPad Pro 2022 could be powered by Apple's M2 chip. But even if 2022’s iPad doesn’t have an OLED display, few will complain about a mini LED screen. Rumors suggest Apple is working on an OLED iPad, but that specific slate isn’t expected until 2024 at the earliest. The latest iPad Pro features a gorgeous mini-LED display. Not only would such a panel be large enough for watching videos, playing games and for work, but it also ensures we’re not carrying a bulky device in our backpacks. After all, many of the best laptops have 13-inch screens. That screen real estate, especially the 12.9-inch version, is perfect for a device you’d want as a laptop replacement. The iPad Pro 2022 is expected to have a model featuring a 12.9-inch display.
