Nowadays some college students get tablets with keyboards instead of getting a laptop. They are not cheaper either, at least not that much.
Using a tablet as a main workstation is a torture. Also you can use the laptop for 10 years easily. A tablet? Maybe 5 years.

It is only torture if you know how to use other alternatives. I think people discount the education and experience that previous generations had in learning to use laptop computers.
Some college level CS programs have had to include modules on what a computer file and folder are. iOS was designed to be so simple that a baby can use it and those babies are adults.
That’s an interesting point! Yeah, they don’t even know they’re being tortured. :)
And that’s a sad one because this is their normal.

Haven’t heard of this but not surprised considering how bad is the computation knowledge with the younger generation. It’s not their fault, however they born into this faulty reality.
The first iPad pro got 11 years of updates and support. There aren’t android equivalents to that.
Yeah, you only get that kind of support only if you install a custom ROM and a lot of Andoid tablets especially cheaper and regional ones don’t have that option. They don’t even get a version update most of the time.
Every single person I know in university (except the people using paper) has an iPad. I have never seen someone with an Android tablet.
I guess that’s normal if you’re in US. However that’s not the case here.
That makes sense, yeah.
As a musician, these gigantic screens are great for reading music. Though Apple is the golden standard in the business.
can you install Linux on them?
Funny how the headline goes:
“are they for you?”
while in the actual article the author only explores:
“are they for me?”
What do they mean with “are back”? Never stopped using tablets since Nexus 7/Nook with CyanogenMod.
over the past few years, Android tablets have had a renaissance. New form factors, big releases from a variety of brands, and flagship-tier devices left and right
If it doesn’t run GrapheneOS or Lineage OS it doesn’t exist. So far, I’ve been able to sneak through.
