Whoever can afford this can already afford the laptop alternatives. My guess is that this will be a convenient "nice to have" item whenever bringing along a tablet over a laptop feels like less of a hassle.

You can consider getting the Qin F22 Pro.

Erm, that's not the same thing that the comment was referring to. We're talking about paying twice for essentially the same app on two different operating systems.

That's different from the lock in that you are referring to. Your explanation involves installing the same purchased app on two devices running Android.

Also, I have a lot of apps and games that only require me to make a one time purchase on either Android or iOS.

That is not a lock in though? It's just personal preference to avoid paying double for apps.

The current method for sideloading apps without a developer account seems to be limited to three separate apps at a time.

I mean, a lot of people use Messenger to contact other people, so I guess they do?

I'm confused, I just did a quick search and found one on Amazon that's listed for about $14. Am I missing something here?

It was hard for me to choose, but the nuggets sealed the deal.
