Since I got my Tab S 8.4 I do almost everything on a tablet. Web surfing was just too painful on a 7 inch tablet. I hate mobile websites so I normally use Opera browser with the UA set to desktop. For MobileRead I usually use Tapatalk.

I use a computer so infrequently now that it's more difficult to type. I use Swiftkey keyboard on my tablets and once you use it for a while it can suggest your next word fairly reliably. I also don't have to remember how to spell - after typing some letters I can just tap on the suggestion. I never use auto complete. I'm actually on my desktop now and keep looking up so I don't have to type the rest of the word and then I realize I can't tap on the word I want.

I use my laptop so infrequently that it usually has to be charged to do anything.
