Re: Tablet workflow, why Capture one? Image qualities, RAW etc

I recently (1 year ago) switched to a tablet for editing photos. I had a cheap Samsung tablet and loved it so now I bought the newer Tab S6. The S6 comes with a pen aswell.
The workflow is fast and precise. I normally start my jpg edits in snapseed and finish them in lightroom if needed. I wish they would havd a good RAW app for tablets but I have not found anything yet. Ideas?
I've had and tried Photoshop, lightroom, affinity pro, capture one, pixlar Vcso etc on my Mac computers, but for jpg, snapseed has the fastest workflow for me. I spend max 1 minute per edit unless it's a print or work.
WHY RAW?
So why do we need to edit RAW in Capture one? Why do we need to shot in RAW. Is the differences that huge compared to the others once it is printed? I shot 500 photos in RAW yesterday but ended up not using one single RAW for edit. The jpgs were good enough
I like to get it right in camera straight away and then do minimal edits.

Nice shot! If you can nail this 100% of the time, I would not worry about RAW.
However, Murphy's law If I were you, I would shoot JPG + RAW, just in case I change my mind about WB later on, or there's unwanted clipping in the shadow/highlight. Retouching to remove skin imperfections is also more flexible with RAW. You obviously have a lot more experience, I'm not even qualified to talk about this.
As for editing tablet, you don't have to limit yourself to an Android/IOS tablet with limited power/memory/app. You can use your favorite desktop software with a pen display. My daughter has been drawing on the affordable Huion Kamvas 13, she's totally happy with this upgrade from Wacom Intuos 4.
