"The seven-inch tablets are tweeners: too big to compete with a smartphone, and too small to compete with an iPad"

- Steve Jobs

About this Quote

This quote by Steve Jobs is referring to the size of seven-inch tablets. He is saying that these tablets are too huge to compete with a smart device, as they are not as portable and hassle-free, and too little to compete with an iPad, as they do not have the same level of functionality. This implies that seven-inch tablets are stuck in the middle, unable to compete with either device. This is most likely why Steve Jobs was not a fan of seven-inch tablets, as he believed that they did not offer enough to be a practical choice. He rather preferred the bigger iPad, which he believed provided a better user experience.
