TDE is for a desktop (mouse/keyboard/monitor)
For tablets you should use something else
you are definitely asking advice at the wrong place.

Like other's have said, sailfish, meego are options
I don't know if ubuntutouch is still developed by some one...
You can also use android, open source or stock or lineage OS....

Also, i think unity, gnome3 and KDE5 are meant to be hybrid....
