    Yes, but for some of us a laptop is too expensive for something that isn’t a necessity rush. Phones are also quite expensive, but are nearly required in today’s society.

      Not sure why you’re being downvoted. This meme is correct but most activity happens on phones these days because most of the world can’t afford more than one device.

      It’s also why phones, including cheap ones are so oversized :(( If it’s your only device, you don’t want a small one

      I think for probably close to a decade now, the phones I’ve bought have consistently been more expensive than the laptops I’ve bought… and I don’t buy expensive phones.

        I’ve never spent less than $500 on a laptop, and I’ve never spent more than $500 on a phone. I buy both refurbished.
