Once upon a time, I was given a first gen iPad with cellular. That thing quickly became one of my favorite tech devices and I carried it with me pretty much everywhere for no good reason. Ever since then, I’ve wanted an iPad that had the same capabilities as an iPhone.

I was super excited to get an iPhone 6+, because I thought certainly the larger screen meant apps more like the iPad. But, no. All the exact same stuff over some extra pixels.

I was also super excited to get an Apple Watch. I’ve worn one every day since Series 4. I opted in for Wi-Fi and Cellular. Once again, I had hoped to ditch the phone. Again, I was disappointed to learn that the watch can’t do much on it’s own and is effectively an accessory and secondary screen for the phone.

I like the unfolded form factor of the new iPhone Duo, I like the ability to use a stylus on a phone screen, finally. I like the screen size. I like that it has window management.

But honestly, I hate that it folds.

I dunno. I feel like I should be more grateful that this combination of features exists at all. If I have the opportunity, I will probably get an iPhone Duo.

But I’d really like an iPad Pro that will allow voice calls (I carry AirPods Pro) and allow me to pair my watch.
