Mobile devices

Mobile devices are basically handheld computers and these can take the form of smartphones and tablets. Even although they are small and can fit into your hand, they have the ability to do the same things as your PC or laptop. In this section we will explore the smartphones and tablets in a little more detail.

There are so many smartphones on the market that it can be very overwhelming when having to choose one! We've included in this section information on both the Android (which can consist of many brand names) and iPhone smartphones.

You can essentially do almost anything on a smartphone examples being:

• Check your emails
• Attend Zoom or Google Meet online meetings
• Work in a word processor or spreadsheet
• Take photos
• Listen to podcasts and music
• Watch videos
• ...to name but a few!

Review the two tutorials on Android and iPhone devices below.

Tablets and iPads are still handheld devices but they are larger than the smartphone. Again, you can do anything on these devices and with the screen being larger, they are ideal for watching movies, video conferencing and reading e-books!

Mobile devices are also expensive! Follow the maintenance program below to ensure that your mobile device lasts as long as possible.
