Am I the only one who prefers browsing the internet with PC?

Postby Netherrealmer » 31 Aug 2018, 12:08

Browsing the internet via mobile can be super annoying, There are many websites that are not mobile friendly while there are sites that will annoy you with notifications for their app. Also the mobile data being consumed if you are using your phone's own wifi because you are outside is something you need to monitor because it will be super useless after you got data capped.

Another thing that annoys me with mobile internet is that you are not clicking something but because of your fat fingers your phone will think so.

I am on the same page of thought. Browsing Internet on mobile annoys me. Small screen and font size strain me and switching between windows is another issue along with the touch screen sensitivity. I love to browse on my laptop. I find it easier and we can switch between multiple windows making it easier and fast.

I too am in the PC club. I find it highly inconvenient to surf using my phone. I guess this is primarily because the phone screen is significantly smaller than the PC screen.

Well, I am relieved to see that I am not alone either. When I first got my smart phone, I took a look at a few websites but hated the experience. I have not used it for browsing the internet since then. I use my phone for calls and text but nothing more. I only use my PC to browse the net.

I myself on the same shoes. I do not like to browse internet through my hand held device. I only use email apps and facebook apps on my phone.

I use mobile hand sent to do simple google search, check social media service, and use voip. Normally, I do not browse internet on my hand held device. I browse internet only when my computer is not on my reach.

the computer gives me a nicer experience especially with some sites that aren't mobile friendly. You can also multitask. However, the hand devices are very portable to carry about and operate from anywhere.

I use my pc for everything. I hate using my phone or tablet for anything other than earning apps. I cannot stand trying to type things out on my phone and it's not much better on my tablet. For forums and such that I must put in a bit of work I will stick to my PC any day! I really do want to get another laptop though. I truly miss mine.

I only use my tablet for games. Maybe for Youtube but not for browsing. It is hell to use for browsing.

I use my laptop for most of my online activities. I always bring my laptop with me. I am with my laptop most of the time than anybody else. I also have my phablet on some activities that can be done by clicking buttons or the likes. Sometimes I use my phablet while playing games and my laptop for working.

I use my desktop for virtually everything because I prefer a bigger screen and a manual keyboard. I only use my phone to browse the internet if I need to look something up when I am out. I'm so clumsy on my phone.

You are not alone. I don't like using my phone to browse the internet. I only use it to look something up when I am not at home. It takes forever to type on my phone and I can do it so much easier on my laptop. Plus, even though I have the iPhone Plus, it is still hard to see the words on the screen. I like to be able to see the whole site on a bigger screen.

I prefer to use my laptop to browse to my Smart phone as I find it difficult to read the fonts and also to go through the contents as most of the times we get only part of the content displayed on the screen. Though my fingers are not that fat but still I commit many mistakes while using my on screen keypad! Thanks!

I am a marketing professional so I am online most of the time. I am not comfortable while browsing the net on my phone due to my typing with one finger but I have to cope with that in order to stay in touch. But I feel lot more comfortable on my laptop.

No, you are not alone. I use my tablet quite often but I prefer to use my laptop because I like to use a keyboard. I rarely use my phone to work online, only if i don't have another option.

I think it's pretty comfortable browsing via laptop or Pc but I am OK with mobile as well on some occasions.

Different strokes for different folks like have always loved to browse the internet with my phone. I feel more comfortable and convenient with browsing with my phone than my PC.

Many websites though are annoying on phone because they keep pestering you to install an app.
