Tablets are a type of portable personal computer with a touchscreen interface. They typically feature a larger display than smartphones, ranging from around 7 to 12 inches diagonally, and are designed for a wide range of uses including web browsing, media consumption, gaming, and productivity tasks. The operating systems commonly found on tablets are similar to those on smartphones, such as Android, iOS (for iPads), and sometimes Windows.

The physical design of a tablet usually consists of a flat, rectangular slate with the screen dominating the front surface. Physical buttons are minimal, often limited to power and volume controls. Input is primarily through touch gestures, though many tablets support external keyboards and styluses for enhanced productivity and creative work. Connectivity options typically include Wi-Fi, and many models also offer cellular data capabilities (4G or 5G).

Tablets fill a niche between smartphones and laptops. They offer greater portability and a more immersive viewing experience than smartphones, while being lighter and more instantly accessible than most laptops. Their versatility makes them popular for entertainment, education, and professional use, serving as digital textbooks, drawing canvases, or mobile workstations depending on the user's needs and the applications installed. The market for tablets is diverse, with various manufacturers offering models at different price points and with varying specifications to cater to a broad consumer base.
