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.

      I mean that I have two different radar apps along with the Accuweather software. I look at it both for long-term and short-term forecasts. The last time I had a dedicated device just to do weather with the granularity and scale that I have on my tablet, the unit was called a home weather center (and required both GPS and internet access).
