Wes Hilliard is an Assistant Editor for Apple Insider and the Co-host of the Apple Insider Podcast. He was on episode 189 back in January to discuss how he uses the iPad as his primary computer and it still is his primary computer, even with the addition of the Apple Vision Pro.
In this episode, we discuss at length the new M4 iPad Pro. He got the M4 nano-textured 13” iPad Pro with cellular and 1TB of storage in space black along with the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil Pro. We also discuss at the beginning of the episode how he chooses what computer is right for the job now that the Apple Vision Pro has entered his life.
