Balancing an iPad Pro, iPad Mini, and a MacBook Air
Hey friends, as an Apple tech enthusiast, I’m truly grateful for the privilege of having the latest gadgets. Currently, I own an M1 MacBook Air, an M2 iPad Pro with the Magic Keyboard, and an iPad Mini. You might be wondering how I use these three devices for different tasks so I thought I would share that with you today.
In recent months, my iPad Pro has become my preferred computing device. I love the versatility it offers with its combination of touch, keyboard, trackpad, mouse, and pencil. Plus, I’ve automated a lot of tasks on it using Siri Shortcuts and Drafts. Interestingly, I’ve become so accustomed to using my iPad that when I switch to my MacBook, I often catch myself trying to touch the screen. So here we go:
iPad Mini:
- Content consumption which includes reading, watching, listening to, and interacting with a wide variety of content
iPad Pro:
- Writing, editing and publishing blog posts
- Journaling
- Task management
- Communication
- Thinking
MacBook Air:
- Research
- File management
In summary, my tech workflow revolves around my iPad Mini and iPad Pro with my MacBook Air sitting on the sideline.
