Laptop vs. Desktop

By: Lord Turtle the 1st

INTRODUCTION

We have all used both laptops and desktops, but which one is superior? Both have their pros and cons, but which one should you actually use? In this article, I won't take any sides, I will only state the pros and cons of each.

Laptops

Laptops. The prefered machine in schools. The convenient device that can go anywhere and can do (almost) anything a desktop can do. Here are the pros and cons:

Pros

  • Portable
  • Is convenient
  • Does not need an outlet

Cons

  • Lasts only as long as the battery lasts
  • Does not have as good of a performance per dollar as desktops
  • Cannot do some tasks

Desktops

In some tasks, desktops perform much better than laptops. Sometimes, desktops are the only option.

Here are the pros and cons:

Pros

  • Does not have a limited battery life
  • Has more performance per dollar than laptops
  • More flexible than laptops

Cons

  • Requires an outlet
  • More bulky than laptops
  • Usually more loud than laptops

We all use laptops and desktop. Laptops are portable and convenient. Desktops are more flexible and perform better. Everyone has their own opinion, so I have made a survey. That's the end of this article.
