What is the benefit of a Tablet in my Situation?

My Situation: I'm a Freshman entering second semester in Chico State University. I'm studying Sustainable Manufacturing. This is basically Mechanical Engineering, but designing machines for manufacturing by using as little resources as possible. I was wondering since I have an Android phone (Galaxy S3) and may upgrade to iPhone 6 this fall or whatever its going to be called and have a 2013 MacBook Air, what would be the advantages of buying a Tablet. I don't want you to tell me which is better I just want to know how would a tablet cause a major benefit in my studies. One reason i feel i would love to have one is since I'm a photographer I have Wi-Fi on my DSLR and I can use the Nikon app on my phone and use it to download images and send them right to Facebook or Instagram edited without having to wait till i get home to my laptop or carry a laptop everywhere.
So all in all, my question would be. What is the benefit of a Tablet in my Situation?

It would benefit you greatly, but I recommend in your case to get a keyboard case.

  • Would there be a benefit of having bluetooth 4.0 if some devices use older versions? I have the iPhone 5 which supports BLE 4.0 and also own a pebble watch which also supports 4.0. My car however only supports bluetooth 1.2. Does this mean I will not experience the battery benefits of BLE since I will still need to connect to my car which is on the older 1.2 version of bluetooth?
  • What is the situation with iPhone 5 stock in Apple stores (london)? I will visit the UK next week and aiming to buy an iPhone 5 since it is still not available in my country, but i'm wondering will i be able to walk into an apple store and buy one right away or is it still out of stock?
  • Tablet snapshots on the Tablet and iPhone? I'm not very tech-savvy guy, go please forgive me. But does a Samsung note 10.1-the 2013- snapshot consume more memory space than a iPhone 4 in general? Here are the dimensions(again I do not know what I'm doing) Tablet(Note) 10.1" widescreen 1280x800 WXGA TFT LCD 149 pixels per inch (ppi) iPhone 4 640 x 960 pixels, 3.5 inches (~330 ppi)
  • Should I buy a laptop or a tablet? How do pages display on a tablet? I have an iPhone 6s Plus. It almost seems redundant to buy a tablet, but they are more affordable than a laptop. I prefer the way web pages display on a laptop. I have never had a tablet, do they display pages more like a phone or a laptop?
