@viticci I think Craig’s point is that today’s Surfaces are *just* Windows 11 PCs. They don’t really have a “tablet UI” anymore, like Microsoft tried with Windows 8. Sure there are small touch optimizations & accommodations when you rip off the keyboard, but it’s still very clearly the Windows 11 UI.
A dual-boot MacOS / iPadOS iPad *would* look a lot more like Windows 8, which *did* flip between two very different UIs depending on whether it was in tablet or PC mode. (1/2)
Note: I’m not saying that such a device is bad. I’m just saying that I see Craig’s point wrt dual UIs/experiences on a single device, from the perspective of the Surface lineup.
I own (and have owned) many Surfaces over the years. Aside from their form factor, I don’t consider them to be “tablets” in the same way that an iPad or Galaxy Tab is. They are just 2-in-1 PCs, most with mediocre battery life (2/2)
