Hi David,
What's wrong with you ? ?
Do you think that you are supplying us with valuable information by posting that a small iPod is not the equal of a 28" LCD plus an 8 core processor ? ?And then implying that very few people on this forum were aware of that.
What's wrong with you is two fold.1. You're in an endless attack mode.
2. You are delusional about your own capabilities.
In any case, a few minutes work made a rather decent image of your terrible iPad image.It was easily done in Photopaint 6. My 28" monitor cost $287 and the computer cost $750.Phil
I was ask to be there to observe when the senior buyer discussed the issues with him and viewed the images. He used a cloud server and viewed the images on the iPad and what ever viewer he used, I observed and didn't interact. The quality looked more like Windows photo then a real image editor. Just awful! Using the iPad to show the client introduces that device into the work flow, proofing be it hard copy or screen is as important as any other aspect. My advice is for these people to get their act together.
His take was that the images were not perfect but fine and the output provider was at fault. Unfortunately for him performance was the issue and the output provider had a 23 year history with the buyer.
It's all fun and games until someone loses a ton of money and a client.

Until that crappy feature cost you a client.
One advantage of digital graphic creation was that once your systems were set up it removed the cost barrier between creating quality and crap. With the move toward using systems that are really not quality pieces of equipment we now have a very large in flux of systems not being capable, files that are worse than ever and users that don't know the difference.
While 1% may work ok on a pad, 99% already are failing miserably at it.
What you're talking about is little more than operator error. Apple is famous for the quality of it's monitors. And the new iPad Pro raises the bar even farther than it already was. The interesting thing is how Mac products actually impress clients. For decades I've had people walk into my office and immediately start smiling and going on about my Mac. Never happened with a pc.

Only those who are impressed with that kind of stuff. Apple people are Apple people and that behavior says more then I ever could.

Of course not PC people (in general) are not like that.
My PC sits there running 24/7/365 and my kid (who's 32) comes in and puts Apple stickers on the side of it, just to be a butt head, even though he does not even have any Apple computers. He and his wife have iPhone they complain about. I don't care about my computer, it's just a tool and when it is not good enough for me anymore, away it will go.
I impress my clients with the quality of my work and service, they impress me by not trying to nickel and dime me on the price. I have the down payments and I'm scheduled into February 2018 so it must be a plan that's working.
