    To iPad Pro or not to iPad Pro... that is the question.

    Anyone got one? Worth it? A little tired of being stuck at the desk with the Wacom.

    • Yes ofcgrafician
    • pro yes 12" 2018 model still good, refurbished.shapesalad
    • Pro, 3rd gen here. Love itGnash
    • Basically do everything other than indesign and most photoshop stuff (still find photoshop easier on computer)Gnash
    • But email, biz, research, illustration... all on iPad ProGnash
    • yeah man I got my first one in 12 years, the new pro, drawing and painting is phenomenal, plus it's perfect for what Gnash outlined, replaces a laptop imo_niko
    • plus sketching and creating art while on the couch watching TV or cafe/park has the Wacom beat hands down. no lag whatsoever ever too._niko
    • And I just installed a PaperLike screen overlay and drawing / writing is 100% nicerGnash
    • And PS and Illy OK on it?Centigrade
    • Ps is meh. but mostly because I haven’t taken the time to figure it out it’s limitations I only do basic PS stuff on the iPadGnash
    • It’s missing a lot of the desktop functionalityGnash
    • I haven’t gone too deep on illy yet. Mostly because a hated the feel of the pen on the glass. Now that I got the PaperLike I’m starting to use itGnash
    • Still haven’t settled for drawing. I’ve been using Procreate, Concepts, and Adobe fresco... among othersGnash
    • With illy, I’m just finding the transition to using a pen and no mouse/keyboard a bit hard for this old brain. But it opens my ai files fineGnash
    • Thanks for all the good info.Centigrade
    • Gnash, I thought you had mentioned hating the paper like screen in the past so I avoided getting it lol, do you find it dulls colours or anything?_niko
    • Pro + Pencil + Keyboard = fantasticnb
    • @niko, they came out with an upgraded version that’s better. I saw it at a local shop and thought I’d try it.Gnash
    • There is a slight visual issue -mostly because of my greazy finger smudges on the matte surface. But it’s much better that vrs 1Gnash
    • And I hated using the pencil so much on the glossy surface that I’m ok with the downside nowGnash
    • Ah got it thanks man, I’ll check it out then :)_niko
