This is correct. You can tab before you post, and it will say, "With so-and-so." But in mobile, you can't say Having dinner with @Kimber and get it to populate. This is because the Mobile version of the site does not include the technology to autopopulate the field; it probably uses java script, which is not part of the mobile site. When using the regular facebook site, I could tag in IE10 but not IE11, and I could always tag in Firefox.
