Also known as: タブレットPC, 平板电脑
A tablet computer, commonly just called a tablet, is a portable Computer housed within the casing of a handheld touchscreen display. They appear like a larger version of the modern Smartphone.
Unlike laptops, tablet computers lack a built-in keyboard. Should not be confused with a 2-in-1 laptop, which is a laptop that features a touchscreen with the ability to flip or rotate so the display can conceal the laptop keyboard.
A popular example of a tablet computer is the IPad.
Should not be confused with a Drawing Tablet, which is a computer input device that enables a user to hand-draw images on a computer.
