It’s straight dumpster fire made for elderly hipsters, who “don’t wanna buy chinese” and read jobs
I regret ever buying this stuff

>>107132593 (OP)

>>107132623

Nah... every poodroid tablet on the market suck, just as windows tablets/laptops. Apple chips are something else.

Samsung needs better shills.

holy poosung shill

I switched from an iPad to a Samsung tablet. It has even smaller bezels. Would be a great feature. The thing is it has no palm rejection and due to that theres lots of inputs just by holding the device. Samsung is faster than my old iPad. But there is no adapted apps. Android Lightroom is just a scaled-up version from a phone without real navigation and filters.

You could put the processing power equivalent of a supercomputer inside an iPad and it would still be shit because it would still be an iPad.
They need to just put macOS on this shit already.

>>107133916
iPadOS is macOS for tablets, retard

>samefagging your entire thread
Mentally ill doesn't even begin to cover it

what's ur usecase? From what I've seen every digital artist recommends ipad over andeoid tabs

>>107133916
i mean, there's little difference these days.
It's a shitty MacOS, but it's better than the "phone but bigger" of old.
Samsaung had a good thing going until they replaced Dex's WM with the shitty Google one a few months ago. Massive downgrade, actually unusable now.

Lesson of the day, unless you're using it as a drawing tablet just get a small laptop. New Macbook Mini will be $600, and it literally an ipad that runs MacOS.

Is there any reason to get a tablet other than play games ?

>>107134384
Mobile games. Art.
That's it.
You'd think they would be good for media, but holding a massive screen for hours is not as fun as just having a laptop on your lap.

>>107134429
Also popular for displaying sheet music, and sometimes even light VST use (though a laptop is better for that).

>>107132593 (OP)
The Apple ecosystem is shit but come on now... The iPad is the ONLY tablet worth its sand on the market. No Android tablet comes even close to it. Android in general is a bad tablet OS. And I say this as someone who doesn't like and doesn't own any apple device. But I bought an iPad for my mom and I use one at work because it's just there.

>>107134844
>Android in general is a bad tablet OS
It's good enough for very small screen tablets like foldables, and Smasnug were onto something by having tablets run in dex mode. Until they took that away entirely in OneUI 8.
But yeah, it's shit.
iPad and Macbooks share a similar trait in that they're not all that amazing, but they're the best option by far simply because literally everything else on the market is dogshit.

IpadOS is far from perfect but I love the form factor of my M2 pro. I impulse bought a Galaxy Tab Ultra but I rarely use it because the aspect ratio is ass (for a tablet).

>>107135012
>the aspect ratio is ass (for a tablet).
16:9 is ass on anything other than a 40in plus tv

>>107132593 (OP)
i bought the cheap samsung tablet. it was so fucking slow. it couldn't even handle all video types--not enough cpu/gpu. no thanks

>>107133916
>They need to just put macOS on this shit already
You got it backwards. If you look at how the design of macOS has changed over the years, it's clear they're going to introduce touch screens to macbooks and at some point some sort of "enhanced" iPadOS.

>>107132593 (OP)
I got an M3 Air ipad and I have to say I do regret it a bit.
Didn't break or anything, but it feels too restrictive.
As it was my first apple device I expected high quality software both from apple and from the developers that make "paid gold standard apps" like procreate and whatnot.
Always thought android didn't have shit on it at that level, I'm mostly a desktop user.

Turns out apple devices, at least this ipad really is just a toy.
The supposed gold standard apps are rather basic and nothing about them felt particularly good.

It glitched out and had more defects than my Chinese shitphones. The limitations were certainly felt especially in the browser department.
Had that touch disease issue they call it where if you didn't touch the device itself to ground it I guess it was less responsive. Noticed too late, but somehow it was fixed.
It also only has a 60hz screen which is fine, but I also bought a cheap 120hz phone later on and it feels much better. It is significant.

The pen needs to be charged 24/7 or if you let its battery run out to 0% it just dies forever apparently. Meaning you have to have it attached all day or risk losing a 200€ pencil. It also saps the battery over the day.
Performance isn't all that great either and it heats up during shit like master duel. I feel like I would be happier with it if I didn't buy this "higher end" shit and just bought the cheapest standard A16(?) ipad as a toy.
I wanted it to be my "normie device" so I could run questionable shit on my PC and have something for normie shit like medical documents, legal stuff, tax stuff, work stuff, general interactions with normies stuff.
It's serviceable for that purpose. It does not feel premium at all.

TL:DR; software was the biggest disappointment from the whole thing. Even if I ignore the limitations (big if), the quality isn't there.
The cheaper 120hz phone I got was a samsung A56.
My next tablet will be samsung as well if they make a decent aspect ratio one.

>i mean, there's little difference these days.
Still no installing applications outside of the App Store.
Still no arbitrary code execution.
Still no XCode.
Still one single USB-C port.
Still no multi-monitor support.
Still lackluster support for generic USB devices.
Still a children's toy.

Sure you have decent multitasking now but that isn't even the bare minimum.

>>107135200
What you realized is obvious to anyone who isn't some sort of "brand loyalty" retard. Only Apple customers who refuse to look outside of their ecosystem think Apple makes good products. I'm not saying they're bad per se, but they are mediocre, and overpriced. Apple's success is 90% their marketing, 10% Job's legacy (which they are slowly destroying).

>>107135200
its a fucking tablet. they're for netflix and cocomelon. they're aimed at retards, not power users. no one really uses them for anything serious.

>>107135335
this
I have the cheapest smallest ipad just so I can facetime my family who are full on apple everything.

>>107132593 (OP)
Lmao cry harder lagdroid. Maybe you can enjoy running blown up smartphone apps at a retarded resolution.

>>107135335
Yeah I admit part of the fault lies with me. I expected to do more with it than be a toy for the most part, which I mentioned myself, probably would have been a better experience if I bought the cheapest one for this level of use.

Though my primary point still stands. For a locked down ecosystem the software offerings are MUCH worse than people portray it as.
This is both in terms of the base OS and 3rd party applications.

>>107132593 (OP)
Those round things are visually so offensive. What the hell are they thinking?

>>107135476
round is in style this year
square is in style next year
round is in style the year after that
keep buying the new model so your shit doesn't look old!

I got an iPad Air for 200 bucks and I use it for casual drawing and nothing else.

People who shit in those threads never used a tablet in their life. Ipads are pretty dumb and have only niche uses. But at least it have some uses and apropriate apps for that.

>>107132593 (OP)
I thinking of buying a 13.3 inch 4k oled display and connecting to my samsung note (my ancient laptop only has hdmi 1.4b) for media consumption , it sad that there aren't any 4k tablets on the market.
Sony released 4k xperia phone so it's clear theat small (~11 inch) 4k displays are perfectly viable yet the greedy companies just won't release them.

>>107135908
Why do you need a 4K resolution at 13 inches? You won't notice any difference in video. Most of the 4K media is just an upscaled 2K.

>>107135193
>If you look at how the design of macOS has changed over the years, it's clear they're going to introduce touch screens to macbooks
Apple will never put a touchscreen on a macbook. All they ever did to make macos like ios was Launchpad, and that's dead now.
>and at some point some sort of "enhanced" iPadOS.
That's basiclly what we have now with split panes being replaced with regular windows.

>>107135908
Just get a retina macbook. There's plenty to choose from. This is just convoluted.

I bought an iPad for my mother because her samsung tablet was laggy
the difference is day and night on how smooth and responsive it is compared to the samsung one
I even bought one for myself as I prefer to watch shows on it than tv

>>107137330
What kind of samsung though?
I thought the same while using cheaper android tablets, but the ones that are price equivalent to the ipads or near are pretty much on par if not better.

>>107132593 (OP)
>I regret ever buying this stuff
But you still bought it.
And so did a lot of the anons complaining about it on this thread.
None is this is news. Every single /g/entleman worth their salt knows full well that iToys are just toys, but you still had to go out and buy one, didn't you?
>>107132623
>do people (millenials) buy just brands these days?
Looking at OP, it sure seems like they do.

>>107137765
>their salt knows full well that iToys are just toys, but you still had to go out and buy one, didn't you?
To me this was like a weird rebound from going full privacy schizo and missing out on social opportunities and even job/education related problems because of it.
I got tired, exhausted from the isolation that was mostly self inflicted so I went back to the drawing board.
Decided privacy didn't matter for most things for me aside from a select few aspects of my life, registered on social media etc. and decided I needed a normie device.
This was it.
I was sick of looking at specs, reviews for months like I usually do, never satisfied so I just bought what was the most normie thing I could think of.

While overall I still regret it, it gave me some much needed perspective. At least now I see what I care about and what I don't after experiencing both ends of the spectrum.
I can see a lot of /g/ visitors doing this during their Cipher wanting to eat virtual steak character arc.

>>107137396
>but the ones that are price equivalent to the ipads or near are pretty much on par if not better
The palm rejection is just an inconvenience.My main problem is the lack of software. Ios just have more useful stuff made for tablets. It fast, responsive and has a gorgeous screen. But besides manga-movies-pornhub I wanted to work on my photos and videos while traveling. Sadly for that, there's only ipads, surfaces and full laptops.

can an ipad do this?

Will never buy another Samshit product in my life. Only jeets that shit in the street have this garbage

>>107132593 (OP)
Samsung still has shit pen/stylus support
Its honestly offensive how gaebage they are to draw/write on and I fucking hate ios.
i literally bought a minisforum tablet with linux on it just because of how fucking bad it was just to avoid being locked into ios

>>107136971
>Apple will never put a touchscreen on a macbook.
this. it's already tiresome to use multi touch on 13inch ipads (no haptic etc), i can only imagine how bad a 16 inch touchscreen would be.

Google, maker of Android has abandoned tablets however.

>>107132593 (OP)
>don’t wanna buy chinese
you're the country on the bottom. Enjoy sars!

>>107140089
This.
How can you use a "product" even the maker doesn't support?

>>107140120
Still somehow better than Apple.

>>107140162
in what way?

>>107132593 (OP)
Get a refund if it’s less than 14 days old

>>107140165
Not locked down
Better screens
Better specs
Better software availability thanks to sideloading
Better battery life

>>107134384
It’s my in-bed computing device
I’m typing on it right now
Plus it’s great as a recipe holder/display because it doesn’t have a keyboard getting in the way in the kitchen

>>107132593 (OP)

>>107140186

lol, there is no software for android tablets

Samsung should just bring TizenOS back if google are gonna be fags

>>107140089
google gives up too fucking easily with how flush with money they are. stingy fucks

>>107140186
It's way too thick

>>107134384
I got one to mark and write on my slides in university, before that I was typing everything up like some receptionist.
for me the tablet has been an absolute game changer, but after I graduate that thing will probably wander into some cumboard or become a watch-youtube-in-bed device like my phone.
