Every day, when I go for an evening walk, I see a group of elderly people sitting together, singing bhajans. To my surprise, many of them were using tablets, which made me wonder when and how a device I once thought was forgotten is now being used by a demographic I had never imagined.

Tablets aren’t as powerful as laptops, but they offer significant benefits like easy browsing, entertainment, video calling, and reading, and they can be more affordable too. For the elderly and school-going kids, tablets are super portable and convenient. Their large screens and the ability to customise the interface and fonts make them a better option than laptops in many cases.
