For several years now, Apple has been positioning the iPad primarily as a device to increase personal efficiency in studies, hobbies or professional activities. At the same time, many owners of an apple tablet have to enter large amounts of text, which is not very convenient to do using a virtual keyboard.
If in the smartphone market the iPhone is desperately fighting with South Korean gadgets for the right to be called the best, then in the “tablet” segment, a rare specialist will question the superiority of the iPad over its competitors. At the same time, Apple’s latest hardware and software innovations turn the tablet, in fact, into a compact ultrabook that is not inferior, and sometimes even superior in its capabilities to another desktop. However, the iPad does not come standard with a physical QWERTY keyboard, which is so necessary for lengthy correspondence, note-taking, posting, and so on.
