iPad Pro vs. MacBook: Which should you buy?

What's better, the MacBook or iPad Pro? Here's how to pick the best Apple ultraportable for you!

MacBook comes in one size, 12-inches, and runs macOS Sierra on an Intel Skylake Core M. Both are ideal for everything from planes to coffeeshops, classrooms to boardrooms to living rooms. But which one is ideal for you?
