Computer, TAB Or Smartphone - Which One Do You Use?

If it was a decade ago the title of this post would have been "desktop computer or laptop?" But now not only is there a choice between laptops and desktops for working, but tabs and smartphones are also capable enough to get a lot of work done.

But first the device that I prefer. I write almost all my content on my smartphone. The reason being that I take it wherever I go and do not have to sit at a desk at all. I also have the choice of working inside a building or outdoors. The Swiftkey Keyboard for smartphones with its nimble interface and auto correct features does a good job of making things snappy for me.

However I may not always publish posts on my smartphone. I find the desktop or laptop more suitable for quickly publishing a post after finding and editing images and dealing with the Steemit interface.

Whichever device or system I use all the files are saved on my desktop computer although I save some temporarily on the others. The desktop serves as a repertoire of files with a double backup just in case it chooses to go down.

Actually everyone may not be able to work the way I do. If you work with a lot of graphic then sadly the best graphic and editing software is still computer based mainly on a powerful desktop. Even a laptop with lighter specifications may not be useful for graphics and editing. It is the same for for creating video content where some of the software that is used may need higher specifications, available on desktops and some laptops.

Smartphones are more portable and lightweight than tabs. You can easily put a smartphone into your pocket whereas a tab needs to be held in the hand. How you if you have money to spend the advanced iPad Pro and Surface Pro can easily give computers a run for their money.

One thing that stands out in the case of smartphones and tabs is that they have an excellent battery life as compared to laptops. The higher the specifications of a laptop the more battery it consumes. Since smartphones have smaller screens and lighter components they can last a full day even when you work on them continuously.

Last but not the least, some people are so used to typing on a proper computer keyboard with its tactile feedback and sound that they feel funny while typing on a smaller device with their thumbs. But then there are a few who don't even use the small keypad on their phones since they find voice recognition apps much faster and more convenient. I find the errors made by voice to text apps a bit irritating and it slows me down, so I prefer typing instead.

So what do YOU prefer and why? Please do put your thoughts below.
