For the most part, they are, mainly due to the fact that MS and Google don’t seem to be capable of making a proper tablet OS, and iPad OS seems intent on ensuring product diversity so their laptops can’t be replaced.
But yeah, the ability to draw on the screen can be excellent for note-taking.
They are good as cheap portable streaming devices. I bought one that is used as a TV in my camper van. Magnet mounts in the kitchen and bed to easily move it around.

Why? I love mine, they’re extremely handy for note taking during classes or watching movies on the go.
my phone does everything a tablet does
If I needed things like note taking I’d just use an actual laptop or just record it and type it out when I’m near a real keyboard.
Tablets always seemed like a huge waste of money in my eyes. Never bothered
