What I find interesting is that tablet use increased slightly from 51% to 53% over 2 years, while tablet sales across the industry are on a decline [1] with the exception of a few companies such as Apple and Huawei.
This wasn't addressed in the Pew survey, but (purely speculation here), I wonder if it's being driven by an increase in older people using tablets rather than laptops/desktops, due to the larger screen sizes tablets offer over a smartphone with similar capabilities.
Anecdotally, I've started to see older people (in their mid-40s to 60s) bring iPads to meetings instead of laptops to take notes, email, and browse the web.
