 Galaxy TAB S7 Homescreen
I find that I use the Tablet more than the PC, which I mainly use nowadays for Office files, Video editing and making Blog entries (like this one). But for
Messaging incl. Email, following News, YouTube videos and leisurely Internet surfing I mainly use my Android Tablet.
Sandra has retired her Laptop and only uses the Galaxy TAB S8.

I also used to say: "Can usually be reached on the Landline. Used my dumbphone when travelling - to reach - not to be reached". But now I
have also got a smartphone! Actually I can phone from my Tablets even though they don't have SIM-cards - VoIP calls using my Google Voice number.
Similarly I can send SMS to North America from the Tablets using Google Voice.
I do realize that I am fighting a loosing battle, to use the phone as much as the tablet - constant security verifications on the phone. I do prefer
the landline's phone recordings over the the mobile voicemail. But gave up and updated my smartphone in 2025.
