So the three major banks would like to have Apple Pay for themselves while on the same time refusing Apple Pay to use their services. I understand that all business want profits, but if by "any methods necessary" means jeopardizing the consumer's security (and we're talking their money here) AND neglecting the consumer's choice to use ApplePay by forcing their own products (using Apple Chip while throwing out Apple Pay token tech), I think there is a big problem here - in which does not lie on Apple side.

Considering the Samsung S7's Android/Wizwhatever takes 10Gb, twice what IOS takes, I think this is basically projection.

You can take a hell of a lot of photo even with 16Gb on IOS and if someone runs out of space at 16, its because they're not ever transfering photos and videos and will run out of space at 32 too.

IF your in the habit of taking 4K movies, cleaning your phones regularly is a must unless your getting the 128GB, so the 16GB versus 32 argument in that case would be non sequitur.

Of course, there is mention of course that Iphone's storage is actually, hum FAST, much faster in fact and that factors in why they put 16 in (faster mem, scarcer supply).

And confirmed by the article referencing a desktop being used to transform an initial sketch into the final result.  The initial sketch could have as easily been done with pencils and paper for an all up cost in materials of less than €2.  The iPad Pro looks to me like it would be a brilliant way to watch movies on planes and to view digital versions of magazines.

Use of Photoshop sounds like it was mainly for the color gradients, which is something that most of the drawing/art apps in iOS don't currently include. If all of the line art elements were done in iPad Pro, from prelims to tight renders and finishing touches, that's pretty impressive.

"I did the majority of the color work in Photoshop using my Intuos Wacom tablet," says Lambert. "I find that for color work I prefer to not have my hands obscure the artwork in any way and this type of tablet allows me to focus on as much of the image as I need to when working. Procreate is a powerful app, however a complex painting such as this with hundreds of layers still requires a desktop grade application such as Photoshop to pull it off."

Obviously the artist likes using the iPad Pro and it certainly can be used as a tool to create in skilled hands, but it is constantly touted as a conventional computer replacement, which for many tasks it is not.
