Here are my initial thoughts on Docs, Sheets, Slides, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint on the Surface Pro 4 and the iPad Pro. While the launch of the Surface Pro 4 was not a huge deal owing to it being merely a more evolved version of previous Surface models, the device is excellent for productivity owing to its ability to run full Windows. But for a casual user, the big screen and the computational power in this device are good enough to make me feel like I can actually get a lot done. It gives you the illusion of being on a full desktop, even though you’re not.Įxcel jockeys and people who live in Google Docs all day may come to different conclusions about productivity on the iPad Pro. (I’ve been using the Logitech K380, because Apple’s $169 Smart Keyboard wasn’t available in Apple Stores near me on release day last week, and they won’t ship from Apple’s online store for another few weeks.) In Microsoft’s apps, you have support for some keyboard shortcuts. It gets better if you have a separate keyboard. The main virtual keyboard for Google’s apps just isn’t as full-featured. I’m left with the conclusion that the typing experience with the virtual keyboard on the new iPad Pro is pretty freakin’ great, compared with previous iPads.
