A tablet is a device you give your child to use for a limited time, ideally supervised.
A phone is a device they carry around all day and also use while you’re not there.
I won’t give my child a tablet before they’re 11 either. I’d rather give them a desktop PC and a drawing tablet.
But a phone is now pretty much necessary starting with secondary school, unless you want your child to be bullied and socially isolated.

Well, at least where I live, phones are banned in schools. So that’s a good start.
