Not the same person but a couple of the reasons I can’t get away from it are:

-ability to “print” a pdf in to it and directly markup the pages without having to open the actual file in another application (it also runs OCR on the pages so they remain searchable)

-you can also “print” PowerPoint presentations in a similar way

-it handles inking with a pen super well

I have lots of academic papers and presentations that I routinely reference for my job so these are killer features for me

Just hit up an apple store bud - they’ll swap a new battery for like $89. I had the battery replaced on my 11 a few months ago. Took like 20 minutes.
