Tablets are portable computing devices that feature a touchscreen interface. They are larger than smartphones but smaller than laptops. Tablets are designed for tasks such as web browsing, media consumption, gaming, and productivity on-the-go.
Imagine tablets as mini magic portals that fit right into your backpack. Just like how magic portals allow you to access different worlds with a simple touch or gesture, tablets provide you with an interactive screen where you can explore various apps and content.
