Powerful Tablet or a large Laptop?After reading below article my conclusion may help the reader to reach to the best answer .
This is the real question behind the existence of the iPad Pro, unless you really have a lot of money to spend on a luxury video or arts-and-editing screen.
In my life, I use both laptops and tablets. But mostly, it is laptops that have been more important because of their better keyboards, more numerous connectivity options and - above all - their better multitasking abilities. They have had the clear edge as work machines.
But for the last fortnight, I have been using the iPad Pro as a one stop shop machine. I have run presentations off it, watched TV on it and have written articles (like this one) on it. I'll get to the work stuff in a minute. But for non-work activities, it has been a revelation. There is little comparison in viewing (or editing) photos, for example: the iPad Pro's gorgeous 13-inch screen brings them to life in a way you have to see to believe. While I still need to use some applications on a laptop for photos (Adobe Lightroom in particular), I don't think I could go back to a smaller tablet now. It works especially well for TV and movies, too. Both Sky Go and Netflix look and fantastic on the machine, not least because of its four speakers. It's relatively thin and light, too: certainly lighter than almost any 13-inch laptop you can buy.
For work, I'm still not sure. The iPad Pro has some big improvements over previous generations of tablets, mostly in the realms of power. With Apple's A9X chip in it, there really is no lag at all when it comes to working on it. The slightly better multitasking ability with iOS 9 helps, too: you can run two apps (email and Word, for example) side by side on the screen.
Conclusion:
The different environments and situations that educators and students need to perform and share their work on e-books, online notes, audio-visual content and a multitude of educational software, demands a versatile, portable and yet powerful and extendable computer. The hybrid Cobalt is a response to this -demand.
Taking into account many design factors that affect the activities of users in education, the 11.6” Cobalt embodies features, options and accessories that enable students and educators to enjoy the benefits of a tablet and a laptop with a high Performance/Price ratio. In addition, it perfectly fulfills the role of a core computer in the classroom around which an efficient and unified interactive learning system can be built.
No other hybrid device can quite match the Surface Pro 3's combination of portability, power and versatility. Except Cobalt who Sydenham School in UK Chose it in compare with other Hybrid tablets.
