Yes, there are some things that you can't do with an iPhone and iPad.
I often burn movies. So I need a DVD burner. And occasionally I'll burn a CD. And I pretty much have my iPad and iPhone cloned to each other. Yes, I have many files backed up, that are basically, in their totality, would require much more space than the 128 GB that my devices have. I have one external 320 GB that is full.
I rarely use the computer for anything other than burning DVDs, CDs, and storage of files.
There really isn't a way to back-up files other than by using a computer, that I am aware of. What would be nice is if there were an Apple dock, sort of a "base station", in which you could place your iDevice, and use the iDevice as a monitor, but the dock would have a large HDD, keyboard, and mouse; set up so you could have multiple accounts for other family members,
Basically, the bottom line is that my normal, everyday heavy usage is all via iPad and iPhone, however; although I only need a computer occasionally, I do need one.

BUT why do you need a laptop? are you doing things that can't be done on an iPad with all the bells and whistles and a Lenovo keyboard cover? You should have an external backup or two for your devices. I have had macs since 1984, except for a short period of time that I had to use a PC. I was so glad to not hold my breath from using a PC. FOR ME, Macs have been more reliable. I would only use a PC if my $$$ resources were really limited, they are cheaper.
