If you’ve read me for any length of time then you’ll know I have never owned an iPad. Well, that’s not strictly true — I did buy one of the very early ones in 2011 and I do have a couple of old iPad minis — but none of those was used regularly or for any kind of serious work.

I have never been able to properly understand the iPad or more importantly how it would fit into my daily workflow — but there again I have never owned an iPad that would let me work productively on it.

Maybe I’ve just not given it a fair crack?

Rumours are that the iPad will get a fairly big makeover this spring with larger OLED panels which got me thinking that it might be quite interesting for me to finally dip my toes in the iPad pond to see what I make of them.

Would the touchscreen, pencil and portability win me over? Would I find I could be even more productive with the flexibility that working on an iPad would offer?

Would iPadOS prove to be a professional solution or would I miss the desktop environment that I’ve always yearned for, defended and loved? There’s only one way to find out right…
