Re: Smartphone .vs. Laptop
No, like Golfdriver my smartphone is for mobile use only. It can't hold a candle* to my iMacs and MacBooks when I'm at home, work, or otherwise stationary.
*processing power, screen size, keyboard convenience, storage space, etc. etc.
When, for some reason, I need to use my phone when I'm on one of my iMacs or MacBooks I run my phone's interface on that iMac or MacBook because of the comfortable screen size and full size physical keyboard.
For me, it also depends on what I am doing. If someone on the forums needs help, depending on my reply, sometimes it's easier on mobile, sometimes much easier on a laptop/desktop.
For example, say I take a complex question about rooting/ROMing. At home, I can cast the video to my TV, ask a few guys on Hangouts, look up other root methods on various sites, and keep the original question all on the same screen, all through different tabs. Yes, this can be done on mobile too, but while the steps are the same, it seems to take longer.
However, on mobile, it is easier to track my replies and threads. So replying with a simple yes or no, it is just as easy on mobile as it is on the desktop.
