In my view it's the opposite: the worst of both worlds.

If I need to do work involving lots of typing, precise clicking or sitting for a long amount of time, I'd rather use a laptop (or desktop). And for less demanding stuff, the smartphone (which I'm already carrying everywhere by default) is enough.

The tablet sits in an awkward middle and I don't really find much use for it.

I think the tablet market share agrees with you. We've also got touch sensitive notebook screens that removed the edge from a pure tablet experience.

Which is something important to keep in mind when discussing VR adoption. A few people getting overly excited (or overly dismissive) is not necessarily a good predictor.

Tablet is for playing touch based games and watching Youtube
