More screen real estate compared to a virtual keyboard taking up ~30% of it

I mean sure, but how often is the virtual keyboard pulled up in any “creative” app? It always auto-hides if you’re doing anything other than interacting with a text field.

I recommend watching the video linked in the article. They mention live streaming, working in a spreadsheet, and long text messages where you have to scroll to read everything

Plus this isn’t just a hardware product, the keyboard shortcuts would be pretty handy for any power user. Sounds like they’ll be rolling out more software for it and have more products in the works
