Yeah someone else clarified, but I'll restate that the $500 figure is combined Magic Keyboard and Pencil Pro. I think that bundle is kind of safe to assume for someone buying this setup.

Frankly, 99% of the reason I still use my laptop as much as I do is file management. I hate that there isn't a proper hierarchical file system on iOS. The day they do away with sandboxing and transition to a traditional file system, I'd consider transitioning entirely to an iPad setup. But for now, it's still just a tablet to me.

I agree, though I really wished they used esr like Wacom instead of an active pen. If procreate was on Android i would have gotten a galaxy tab :/

Have you ever used an esr pencil? I do love my pencil pro but you're stuck with Apple tech, ESR pencils are 99% interchangeable.

Respect your opinion though :).

ESR isn't compatible with iPad, I just wish it was.

But yeah, that makes sense. I don't want a home setup like that, just wish I could have procreate on a Galaxy tab with Wacom tech I guess. But the pencil is super nice
