I have an Android tablet that I mostly use for reading text or watching movies sometimes. I do wind up using my laptop more.

I suspect that a laptop+phone might cover a lot of what she’s talking about better than a tablet.

It took Google more than a decade to dedicate some development resources to larger screens

A laptop will generally beat a tablet on screen size.

I’d still love to see the full desktop Chrome experience on tablets — rendering, extensions, search engines, and all that

Well, there’s an easy way to get the desktop Chrome experience.

Multi-window support has been a staple feature of Android’s history

Also hard to compete with a desktop on.

Landscape mode: Near useless on phones, a default on tablets

Also true of laptops.

I use a 10" tablet and a relatively powerful desktop with a couple of large screens and a mechanical keyboard. I don’t have uses for a notebook.

Ideally I would like a 13" or 15" lightweight tablet with a stand and a mechanical wireless keyboard, rarely used.
