Tablets are lightyears behind consoles.

Tablets are already ahead. Well, almost.

Proof? Surface Pro 3. Of course, it's really a laptop in a tablet's body, but it's a tablet nonetheless.

As for why we get crap for graphics on games made for tablets, it's a simple matter of keeping development costs low.

the i7 is a strong CPU, but the Surface Pro 3 has no discrete GPU, that's why it's graphical processing capabilities are waay below current gen consoles

the HD5000 included in the CPU can't even compete with PS360 GPUs

Even the Surface Pro 2 ran Skyrim in PS360-resolution (1280x720) with ~50 fps while the PS3 had problems to reach 30 fps:

And the Surface Pro 3 with i7 is probably a lot faster.

Sure, the new PS4 and XBO are way ahead for now, but they are probably the fastest console for the next 3 - 5 years while there is a constant progress on the tablet side with faster models every year.
