Excerpt: In our latest comparison, we tested both smartphones and laptops to uncover surprising differences for 2024 buyers. While smartphones excel in versatility and instant connectivity, they often fall short in multitasking power. We found that laptops remain essential for heavy-duty tasks like video editing or coding, but their bulkiness limits portability. Our tests revealed that hybrid devices—smart laptops with high-refresh-rate screens and improved battery life—are bridging this gap, though they come at a higher price. We观察到 that users prioritizing convenience over performance may favor smartphones, while those needing robust workstations stick to laptops.有趣的是, both ecosystems are becoming more compatible, with cross-platform apps and cloud syncing narrowing the divide. Whether we choose one or the other ultimately depends on our balance of mobility and power.
