I ask again: Will Apple ever merge the Mac and iPad?
- Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman suggested outfitting the Mac with an OLED display and touchscreen.
- The iPad should gain “a much better operating system” and the ability to run Mac apps.
- Mac should come with OLED touchscreen panels.
- But loading macOS onto the iPad is not a good idea.
- Apple has repeatedly said that it doesn’t want to make touchscreen laptops.
- If Apple does go touchscreen, it will be a high-end option for the MacBook Pro and not for all or most Macs.
- Mac and iPad can still be different
- The Mac will have more powerful chip options, larger displays, a built-in keyboard and trackpad, more ports, and better battery life.
- The iPad will always be far more portable, better for gaming, superior for watching video, and a device that can capture photos and video.
- Apple needs to be very wary about bringing the iPad and Mac too close together.
