content: I use mine to watch Netflix and YouTube in the kitchen as I cook and whatnot.  A laptop's "stance" is too long and wide, and it takes up too much counter space.  A phone's screen is too small.  A tablet with a kickstand fixes both of these problems. It's also nice for browsing Voat before bed since it's big enough to lay in the bed, on its side, while browsing.  A phone is too small to sit on its side correctly, and you can't use a laptop while laying down.  A tablet with a kickstand fixes both of these problems as well. Many games are made to be played on phones, but sometimes the bigger screen of a tablet makes games more fun.  Some games are just better with a bigger screen and more control.
