Say what a tablet is
Tell what your tablet does better than a phone, and what it leaves to a computer.
A tablet is a sheet of glass the size of a magazine. It runs phone apps on a page you can read.
It is not a computer. One app fills the screen, with no windows to drag about.
Key points
- A tablet runs phone apps on a screen the size of a magazine
- One app fills the screen, so there is nothing to arrange
What to remember
- The extra room is the point of a tablet.
- A tablet is the reading and watching machine.
