Battery life and instant-on. Many speakers/microphones for conferencing. Same apps as iPhone. Just Works. LumaFusion, Flipboard.

It won't replace my laptop, but a touchscreen PDF reader with an excellent stylus and build-in cellular modem is a compelling piece of kit already.
Add in a keyboard and touchpad that's good enough that I can fluently type on it, and I can imagine a lot of scenarios where I'd want to bring just it. Unfortunately most of them involve being able to leave my house and go somewhere else :/
I do need more control over the keyboard layout (see my other comment if curious), but will probably get this when that becomes possible.

I use a computer at work. I don’t use one at home.
I’ve been using an Air 2 since it launched in 2014. Added an Anker keyboard a few years ago and really like typing on it instead of the on-screen keyboard. Made doing crosswords and other stuff a lot easier.
Decided it was time to upgrade and figured I’d get the “best” and try to get another 6 years out of it.
For anyone with personal real-world experience, what convinces you to buy an iPad Pro + Keyboard over an Air or vice-versa?
