Not quite a laptop and not quite a smartphone, tablets are an in-between category that offer the best of both worlds: the portability of a smartphone and the power and larger screen of a laptop.

Tablet users can stream music and video, check and respond to email, run mobile games, read ebooks, web surfing, and more. The main difference between models is the operating system—whether that’s iPadOS, Android, or Windows—plus the processor used and the amount of on-board memory. Many tablets are also compatible with keyboards and pens, making them versatile in terms of input.
Of course, if you need to do more heavy duty tasks, a traditional laptop is still the way to go.
