As fantastic as the iPad Pro is, if you do serious design perhaps you should get the computer-like MacBook Pro or MacBook Air for speed, filing, etc. I think it depends on the type of design, like CADD vs free-hand. The Air is no heavier than the iPad with its cover/stand necessary for portability, but only the iPad has a touchscreen!

As long as you understand that this is not a Mac, you can do quite a bit. The iPad Pro can do graphic design via Affinity and Procreate apps. Also, Adobe is launching new apps this year for the iPad specifically. This is a great compliment to your Macbook. If you are looking for a device that can work as both...I recommend the Microsoft Surface Pro 6 or Surface Book 2.

There’s this really good app for that. It’s called lumafusion. It’s 20.00$ on the AppStore but it’s totally worth that rather than buying another device.

I love the iPad pros, have had a gen one since they launched and just upgraded to the Gen 3. I have never had an issue editing photos on the pro, I have an adobe account and use all their apps easily. As for graphic design, I would check what apps are available (pro create is nice) and the pencil is nice as well.

By all means you can do some incredible image editing using Affinity Photo... I've relied on this full featured challenger of Photoshop for several years. I used to be a Photoshop power user and once I started using Affinity on the Mac and now iPad I have never looked back.

IGNORE the person who was recommending the Surface. This iPad Pro is a workhorse, and can do a remarkable job on exactly what you need.
