Why do people spend money (and quite a lot of it) for devices that have less functionality than a smartphone?

  • Tablet is just a bigger screen, but not same power like a laptop.

  • Smartwatch is just tracking device that sends even more of your personal data.

And BOTH are another battery that you have to worry about.

    Undefeated for you. I take it you don’t work in a place where smartphones are not allowed. Or where it would be inconvenient to use a smart phone, but more convenient to use a watch or tablet (out to sea on a ship for instance). There’s plenty of use cases. If you’re looking for them for yourself I’m not sure we’re likely to be able help you with that. If you’re wondering why they’re on the market at all, then it’s because other people do have a use for them.
