I'd like netbooks to come back. That was a good idea (and sufficiently popular, and probably slaughtered due to some backstage pressure from Microsoft, cause those were often used with Linux, I even remember that some were sold with Linux).

They're just called tablets now. My Tab S8 w/ keyboard has pretty much replaced any use I needed for my personal laptop at home

I have the Tab S7 I think. Insanely powerful. Mine didn't have a keyboard though.

Oh yeah, I think I added the keyboard cover as an add-on some samsung store credits I got when I bought the tablet
