This is a natural question to ask. For lots of people, a tablet wouldn’t fill a need that isn’t already met by other mobile devices they own, such as a smartphone or laptop. However, for older people who carry a basic cell phone that does not have much or any smart functionality, a tablet can be much less cumbersome and more convenient than a large desktop computer as many tablets can be carried in a pocket or purse.
Also, as mentioned at the beginning of this guide, tablets provide the unique benefit of a large, but still mobile screen. A larger screen on a mobile device can make games more engaging, make navigating a device by touch easier, and can generally make the information on the screen much more visible than it would be with a smartphone.
