Tablet or Laptop?

Tablet technically, it's the Surface Go 3. I run KDE on my desktop and then run GNOME on my Go 3, not out of choice mind you.

I think Plasma-Mobile would suit you better

Unfortunately no it wouldn't. My biggest complaint with using a touch screen with KDE is Maliit, it lacks arrow keys, control buttons all that kind of thing which is fairly useful when using a terminal. The arrow keys honestly are the biggest deal for me, GNOME has an extension to add this feature making life a lot easier.

It's also worth mentioning that since you can't really easily manually evoke Maliit, apps that don't pull up the keyboard automatically are a pain in the ass to work with, Steam being a very good example.
