For many (most?) people, a phone gets a lot more use than a laptop

[–] NevermindNoMind@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I regularly go weeks without touching my personal laptop. I do nearly everything on my phone and it's generally as easy if not easier than on a laptop (for example, I personally find cleaning up my email to be easier to do on my phone then my laptop). I have my todoist on my phone, I track workouts on my phone, my music and podcasts are all on my phone, I bank and pay bills on my phone, I shop on my phone, I navigate in my car using my phone, I read news and post on lemmy from my phone, on and on. Not to mention my phone is the only picture taking device I have and I want to be able to have good quality pictures to look back on over the years. My phone is the device that runs my life life, so when it comes time for a new one I have no problem sending a little more for good quality.

Right? I sometimes sit at my desk at work and work on my phone, even though my computer is right in front of me. There's some stuff that's harder, but just reading and responding to email is sometimes easier on my phone.
