Well, of course depending on what you need your iPad to do, it might work. Let’s see, reading, browsing, i guess we all know the answer to those ones. But if you wanna use it as your Host for Vst instruments, i think you will be very disappointed. I have a IPad Pro, i think it is the 9 inch, and the smart connect keyboard. for facebook, notes, mails, the iPad is good enough, am not sure how it would be if i had to write a longer text.
