Just don't pay full price it goes on sale at least once per month. It's affordable, versatile and covered by a 2-year, worry-free replacement warranty. I won't say that's the best of both worlds, but it's certainly one of the most versatile options. In fact, you might want to consider a convertible, a laptop with a touchscreen and 360-degree hinge. (Microsoft's app store offers only a fraction of the software available to Android and iOS users.) Plus, the keyboard is sold separately, which once again begs the question: Why not just buy a laptop? They're expensive and don't afford many tablet-y benefits. What about Microsoft's Surface tablets, which run Windows? They're quite popular, but I honestly don't see the appeal. So if you're buying a tablet in hopes of getting your work done, make absolutely sure it's compatible with all your work tools. And there are certain web-based tools that won't work properly in a mobile browser. (They're not Mac OS, either.) If you rely on Windows or Mac software even a little, a tablet probably isn't your best bet. Something else to consider: While Android, Fire OS and iOS are capable operating systems, they're not Windows.

At that point, why not just buy a laptop, especially if productivity is your main goal?
