iPad Pro vs. Surface Pro 6:

Can a tablet-laptop hybrid really replace your portable PC?

At this week's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), Apple unveiled some significant changes to its iPad operating system, even christening the revamped version with a new name all its own: iPadOS. The changes bring Apple's flagship tablet, especially the iPad Pro models, closer to the "hybrid PC" category that Microsoft has staked out with its Surface Pro line.

From a hardware standpoint, the latest 12.9-inch iPad Pro, with the addition of the Smart Folio Keyboard and an Apple Pencil, is remarkably similar to Microsoft's Surface Pro 6, especially when viewed from the side.

Both devices make the same promise: You can have a tablet when you want a simple surface for reading or sketching, or snap on the keyboard to get something closer to a classic clamshell PC form factor.
