What are some of the advantages of having a tablet? If you own one why would you use a tablet instead of your phone or computer?

Get a touch screen Chromebook. When you want a laptop, it's a laptop. When you want a tablet, it's a tablet. Just make sure you get a touch screen. Lenovo has one for $279.00
The new generation of Chromebooks will allow you to install Android apps. There are over 2 million Android apps and a Chromebook will work with most of them. They boot up in 8 seconds and have an incredible battery life. No virus protection is needed and all operating system updates are free.

A bigger screen, more suitable for watching video content. The downside is it's not as easy to transport than a pocketable smartphone.

I still prefer a full size PC screen though.

Thanks for the MHO.

I just read ios 26 on the iPad makes it into a full Mac computer, and you can still switch it back to the original one app at time Steve Jobs version of the iPad

It’s more portable. My iPad has a keyboard and trackpad on a case it magnetically snaps to.

It has advantages for sure but I don’t have much use for one so I don’t have one


My parents had an iPad some years back
Though it was one of the few things my mom didn’t like to share for some reason so we let her be

If I am going to be on the Internet I would MUCH rather be on a laptop. The only advantage to a tablet over a phone is a larger screen.

Bigger screen is all I can think off but maybe add on keyboard is something too

Portable tv & phone is free

Every book ever written.

Business. One for website and edits & one for research.

I can't see much of an advantage, only because it's smaller and easier to transport.

[andreasderjuengere]

I don't see advantages.

[Dongie]

Yes, I would if I could get handle attachments.
