The essentials for my list. 1. At least 2 USB-C connectors. (Thunderbolt would be better but let’s start with 2 USB-C.) 2. For fine input I would be OK with extending the use of the Apple Pencil to manipulate the entire UI. iPad Pro USB-C should s…

For my personal preferences (privacy, security, ease of use, top notch tech support including in local Apple Stores, smooth response, 5+ years of OS updates, & a blended ecosystem with the Watch, Apple TV & the Mac), I choose the iPhone. A…
