remember when m1 came to ipad pro and everyone anticipated it to become a legit pro device for the first time? (including myself) yep, never EVER fall for apple lies. they will NEVER let ipad pro use any of that power, they could put m10 and its still gonna be a waste. wish they just allowed to maybe dual boot with mac os, just give us, the consumer, the options!!! the ability to use our devices how we want to.
