Personally, I couldn’t imagine that the notch would be a bigger annoyance than the small screen and massive bezels on the SE2.

I think you should go for it. You’ll forget about the notch as soon as you experience the much fuller screen!

What do you mean lower USB-C standard though? If you use the included 20 watt charger, it won’t charge as fast as it can do. If you use a 30 watt or higher charger it will.

The only difference with the iPad Pro is it’s USB-C port also has Thunderbolt 4. Data transfer might be faster to Thunderbolt compatible devices, but that’s a different story. Thunderbolt has never been included in any non-Pro iPad.

Are you talking about fast charging? That’s nothing to do with MFi. Fast charging requires a 30 watt charger I believe, but it doesn’t need to be Apple branded. In the iPad’s box they only provide a 20 watt wall plug, which doesn’t offer the fastest charging possible for the iPad. If you use 30 watt chargers or higher, like from a MacBook, it charges faster. Same with the iPad Pro I have. Neither needs MFi specific cables or anything like that.

I tried it. It's not super reliable. That was my experience. There is no support for group iMessage conversations. When someone in the group iMessages, on the computer it appears as a message from that specific person. Unless there is some setting that I missed.

But notifications were very johnny on the spot. I actually had to turn them off. On the phone they seem ok because I set them up to be silent, but on the desktop it was just too much.
