We are living in an era where digitalization has made a significant place in almost everyone’s life. It’s now like a priority to us. If we are left isolated from our phones and laptops for a day, we might go crazy. From studying to gaming, banking, socializing and what not, we need our laptops to execute the tasks. But of course; smartphones are more in use for a few years, but computers too have their own place and smartphones can never replace the efficiency a computer provides.
