As part of the all-digital CES 2021, accessory maker Kensington today unveiled the StudioDock, an iPad Pro docking station that also includes built-in iPhone and AirPods wireless charging and an optional Apple Watch charger.
A recipient of a CES 2021 Innovation Award, the StudioDock greatly expands an iPad Pro's connectivity options with three USB-A ports, one USB-C port, one HDMI 2.0 port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, an SD card reader, and a Gigabit Ethernet port. The whole setup appears to be powered by a 20V DC power adapter.
11-inch iPad Pro, 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and 10.9-inch iPad Air models can be magnetically attached to the dock, and it rotates for both portrait and landscape modes.
Kensington has yet to reveal pricing or availability for the StudioDock, but users can sign up on its website to receive updates.

Can we just all admit that the market is desperately asking for touch screen MacBooks? Let’s be completely honest with ourselves and stop defending Apple.
If the software catches up in iPadOS this could work well for a lot of people.
If that became the norm, it would be interesting to see where gaming goes, as the gamers are always looking for the highest horsepower machines and iPads are far from that.
I've been trying out some of the streaming services (Stadia, GeForce Now, etc.) with my iPad. While I don't like the subscription aspect, for many people not having to buy and maintain hardware is a positive.

I’d rather have an iPad running macOS (optimized for touch)!
I just can't use my iPad Pro 12.9 for work. I've tried. It's very frustrating to have worked on something and try to multi-task to another app to copy/paste info or something, and then go back to the 1st app and find out it's completely lost your place or has started all over again.
I'm not blaming Apple...I'm sure it's the app, but regardless I have a real problem switching apps and having the apps stay right where I left them when I switched focus and then come back. Not really work-related, but IG is perfect proof. I get way down my list of posts, switch to another app for a moment to do something and switch back and I'm back at the top again. Frustrating.
