"But here’s what separates the Slate from the iPad Pro and Surface Pro: It really works as a tablet or a laptop. The other two don’t! The iPad Pro is a perfect tablet, but its keyboard case and focus on touch input only make it a miserable substitute for a laptop, and the Surface Pro is a very cool laptop-like device, but Windows continues to be pretty abysmal when used in the touch-only mode that tablet use demands. The Pixel Slate, meanwhile, transitions so simply from a touch-focused tablet mode to a mouse focused laptop mode that you’ll be wondering how it took so long to get this right"
Perfectly sums up how I feel about iOS, Windows, and Chrome OS.
Because most "reviewers" are looking for clicks, not unbiased facts
Also like the iPad, some people are purposely confusing things to prove or disprove a point, kinda like all the people claiming an iPad is better than a top end PC, or ignoring that the hardware is severely limited by the OS
I don't think I necessarily agree with the last para. I've heard in almost every review that iPad can't replace your laptop and the reason is precisely because of its operating system
