Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
Explain the pros and cons of using a tablet computer.

### Response:
Using a tablet computer has its benefits. Tablets are lightweight and portable, making them easy to carry and handle. They also have larger, higher-resolution touchscreens and a full suite of apps. On the other hand, tablets have shorter battery life than laptops and desktops, and they don't offer the same levels of power, expandability, and access to software.
