Breakdown of tablet versus phone functions

[RichardRight]

If you have both a smartphone and tablet, I'm curious how you break down which device to use for which function. Do you use 1 more than the other or do you use both equally? What kind of tasks do you use each one for?

I use my phone for phone calls.

I don't have a smart phone so I use my tablet for phone calls

I use my tablet when I'm home and my phone when I'm out.

My smartphone has been pretty much reduced to only phonecalls nowadays unless I can't take my N7 out with me, then it's good to have a 'fallback' option.

Before I got the tablet I did everything on my iPhone. I haven't had a laptop for a few years and I don't want to sit at my desktop machine, so it had even become my normal medium for web browsing, email, etc. Now I use the phone for calls, quick texting, and in the car for navigation and music (because I have a dashboard mount and I can control it from the car stereo over USB). Everything else I do on the tablet. With a Bluetooth keyboard it has essentially become a laptop; I do document creation and editing at the coffeeshop for example. Then I take it out of the case and hold it like a book when I want to read.

Edit: I'm also finding the n7 surprisingly good for watching Netflix. I don't have cable and only have a TV in one room, and the TV just does Netflix, DVDs and video games. If I want to watch anywhere else in the house (or out of the house) the tablet is fine. The screen on the iPhone -- even the iPhone 5 -- was too small to bother. If I had thought about this I might have bought the n10 instead; it would be better. Also, it's not bad for reading comics/manga, but I'm not a fanatic about that and some people might find it too small.
