It’s great if I’m at home and want something compact to watch stuff in bed, but I can also grab it in a backpack with a low profile keyboard and mouse and now I have the weight of something like a netbook but more powerful.
there’s still the niche of people who work with graphics who need to be mobile (a lot of photographers & filmmakers, and quite the number of people who work with 2D & 3D graphics).
powerful laptops are not something bad, you’re just not the target audience
Oh for sure, I am not questioning the need for more powerful tablets if it fits your work/life style.
I do think that a lighter weight tablet would probably be better for a lot of people who don’t necessarily need GPU tasks/intensive CPU tasks on the go.
laptops are great when you need to be mobile with your set up, lugging an entire PC back and forth between places is a bit of a chore yk
I’ve had a windows tablet for this reason.

Laptops allow you to have LAN parties every single day
thats why i have a streaming server on my desktop. the laptop feels crazy fast if i have good internet on the go, at the much lower cost of a desktop.
