Many people use the internet on their phones. They use cloud software on their tablets. The days of the expensive laptop are going away for personal use.
I agree, connectivity is now phone based for many.
You don't need a laptop/desktop for entertainment.
Yes, there are crazy gaming rigs, but that is not everyone.
Casual users can live with a phone or a tablet. TV's have built in Apps that are starting to get to a point where a Chromecast or FIre Stick isn't necessary (but still a good idea since the TV will be EOL'D in a few days).
One needs a desktop for education and work, and even that is subjective depending on ones role and available software.
