I was reading something random... and this popped up as a trending topic.

http://www.cnet.com/news/intel-with-core-m-theres-finally-a-reason-to-upgrade-your-laptop/

Intel are saying this new CPU could, in theory, last for 8 hours of video playback, and has performance equivalent to laptops 4 years ago.

With the current system requirements of Sims 4, that means we have the possibility of tablets that can actually run the game! Maybe not well, but still... 8 hours of on-the-go Sims 4? I quite like the sound of that. :)

EDIT: As examples... here are some laptops from 2010.

Wow, that would be nice! When the mood hits, you can play!
But I would still prefer a computer over a small tablet. It's all about watching sims in their daily lives. The bigger the screen, the better! My laptop screen is 18.4 and I love it.

My laptop is a 17" and I find that big enough for Sims 4.

I do like the potential idea of playing Sims on a tablet though. :D
