One day, you’ll fold your Mac and pop it in your pocket – Computerworld

Productivity professionals should be able to use their iPads to replace even more of the tasks they may use a Windows device for today, turning Apple’s tablet into an even more viable replacement device as Microsoft terminates Windows 10 support later this year. Those abilities should, in theory, extend to any flattish Apple device equipped with enough processor horsepower, and with the company now also expected to introduce folding iPads and iPhones next year, don’t be too surprised if the UI ideas that appear in the iPad this year logically inform the nature of those devices once they ship. It seems that in Apple’s world, not only will you wear your Mac-like sunglasses, but you’ll also fold them up to pop it in your pocket. 

That combination is, of course, only possible because of the computational performance-per-watt of Apple Silicon, which enables thinner, lower-power devices that punch above their weight. It will be interesting to see how closely Apple’s moves match this speculation in the coming months.
