>New ford vehicles ship with a wireless hotspot

to be used by... other phones

>A lot of laptops come with sim slots

really only useful if you're working on a train or something because most stationary places you'd use a laptop at has wifi.

>Is a tablet a phone? What about a phone that has a usb-c port that can drive display port (or UltraGig) and supports bluetooth peripherals?

Not sure where you're trying to get at here, but everything you've described is already covered by your prior point about laptops.
