Restaurant POS using iPad
Earlier this week, Apple CEO, Tim Cook, announced “the biggest news in iPad since the iPad”. The iPad Pro boasts
- A 12.9 inch retina display
- More pixels than you can shake a stick at
- A reengineered multi touch system
- Split view for running side by side apps
- Greater CPU performance
- Four speakers
- A thin and light-weight design
- A stylus that may have even Steve Jobs sitting up and taking notice: the Apple Pencil
To the untrained eye, all of those technical features may read something like this: “Blah, blah, blah, it’s bigger, blah, blah, there’s a pencil…” What if I told you that the variable refresh rate technology extends the life of the battery? Or that the new size makes it more comfortable for our… how shall we say?… chubby-fingered friends to use?
What if that “fancy pencil” changes the iPad experience in such a way that you can actually create designs instead of just viewing social media rants, fail videos, and Pinterest recipes on your tablet?
What if iPad Pro POS could revolutionize point of sale systems, especially for restaurants?
The iPad Pro POS Revolution
The iPad Pro, scheduled for release in November, hits the market at a time when mobile Sharp pos terminal up-v5500 series manuals are transitioning from novelty to the norm. Restaurants like Chili’s already have iPads on their tables for customer entertainment as well as seamless ordering and checkout processing. When the functionality of the iPad Pro meets the tipping point for mobile point of sales, you have a revolution.
A Bigger Screen is More Comfortable To Use
A 12.9-inch screen is closer to the size of a traditional point of sale system, but the iPad Pro has a more modern, sleeker look (not to mention it takes up less space on a counter)! The bigger screen allows for more menu items to be displayed at once, for larger font settings for the middle-aged folks whose arms just don’t telescope as far as they’d like, and for running side-by-side apps like a sports lover watches picture in picture football games. And let’s be honest, the bigger screen makes an iPad Pro POS look less like a table tent and more like a way to communicate with a galaxy far, far away… like the kitchen.
