I bought a new toy last week, a 10.5? iPad Pro, with 512 GB, the keyboard,
and Apple Pencil. My purpose was to update my old iPad2, and to see how
well it would fit in as a replacement for a laptop for my photo travels.

I already had the Adobe Mobile Apps, Lightroom Mobile, Photoshop Fix, and
Photoshop Mix installed, and I had read good things regarding Affinity
Photo
for iPad. So, I stepped and bought it. The end result is, I am very
impressed, it is so much more than the desktop edition, which I find to
have
an awkward workflow. It is built to integrate with the iCloud file, or any
other app. For example I can save an edited image to my iCloud Drive,
and/or
Dropbox, and/or Lightroom Mobile, all of which can make the file accessible
across all my devices, and sync with desktop/laptop LR.

I can transfer image files RAW, and/or JPEG, to my iPad from my X-E2, or
X-T2
via WiFi.

So for any of you folks with an iPad I can highly recommend Affinity Photo
for iPad. Quite frankly I believe that it is currently one of the best
photo
editing apps available for the iPad along with the Adobe Mobile set, and
Pixelmator.

Just curious - why not a tablet with a 12" screen - or is that too big?
Would make it easier to edit high res images.

would also make it less portable.

And well, a tablet for image editing, not sure how much sense that
makes.

quite a bit, actually.

Personally I need a fast processor, a screen as large/high res as
possible and lots of storage (on a typical trip I take 100-150 GB of
image files, and uploading these to a cloud is not really feasible).
When I factor all that in, the ideal device is a notebook PC.

for you, perhaps.

keep in mind that an ipad pro tops out at 512 gb of flash storage.

By the way, I gave a try a while ago to the desktop version of Affinity
and wasn't impressed.

that's because you tried the windows version.
