Hi everyone
For 7 years now I have had an laptop. This laptop is at the time I write you slowly.
Can an iPad replace my old laptop, if I primary should use the iPad to write text, and if yes, can I so use a wireless keyboard to write text on the iPad?
Thanks in advance for your answer, and have a nice day.
Regards,
Anders

RE: Doable, but seriously subpar for writing
Hi
Very thanks for the answers above.
Is it understand correct, that a Mac have the same issues regarding selection of text as iPad have for users of VoiceOver, or can I fine use a Mac to write and edit text?
Regards,
Anders
You Can't Quite Replace Your Mac With an iPad... Yet
When it comes to the pure typing experience, MacBooks still have the upper hand for a couple reasons.
First off, everything on a MacBook is spacious and more comfortable. The keyboard layout is wider, the trackpad is broad, and the wrist rests are taller. The Magic Keyboard is good enough in these areas, but if you had to pick a better typing experience, you’d choose the MacBook every time. The Magic Keyboard also doesn’t have a function row, which is pretty useful when it comes to quickly adjusting settings or accessingShortcuts.
When it comes to managing all your files and projects, iPad users get the short end of the stick. Instead of being able to keep files organized on your home screen like on a Mac’s desktop, iPad users will have to keep all their data on the built-in Files app, which can quickly turn into a frustrating experience when managing hundreds of files.
Although Apple brought true multitasking to the iPad, it’s not the same experience you’ll get on a MacBook. iPadOS will only let you view up to three apps at once, and even then, it can become a cluttered mess where it’s hard to keep track of what’s going on.
