What do you use your tablets for?

As in Ipad or Surface Go type stuff. When I was a student these made sense so I could quickly look up handouts. Now I don't really see what I would use a tablet for besides reading books.

Only buy an android tablet. Apple is garbage and windows is more of a pc.

I run iptv so use mine as a portable hd tv with 8hours of battery life. Even bought a couple stands. I have it next to this computer, but can carry to garage and stuff.

I read books and play games, especially when I fly somewhere. I also use it as the controller for my Logitech Harmony Hub, as a cookbook, to watch videos when I'm trying to fix something and don't want to carry my laptop.

iPad. Use for facetime.

Mostly streaming services.The 10 inch iPad is light enough to use the Kindle app as well. If I have a lot to type I will just dictate.

Drawing, editing, multimedia, and general business stuffs. Then I surf, watch vids, email, shop etc.. It is my laptop replacement and I love it.

IPad Pro

Use a detachable laptop like Microsoft Surface and get the best of both the tablet and the laptop worlds.

I bought amazon kindle fire tablets and hadn't used them in forever. The other day I thought, why not set it up as a smart clock next to my bed. So now it functions as a Show device. I can get on with technology and start speaking to my outlets.

I also read books on it.

When i was in hospital (looking after mum), i logged into TTW on my iPad and found i cuold do normal typing on it. much better than using the swipe feature.

I also once loaded the vim editor on my iPad. Even connected my BT keyboard to it.
But the moment I pressed Escape it wuold come out of the application. If you know the vim editor, ESC is required to come out of insert mode.

With much sadness, I had to delete the vim app.

I sometimes ingest my tablets when I have a nasty headache. OTOH, many people like to etch Roman numerals and rules of conduct on their tablets
