Smartphones have become very popular that many think that
they can do anything and everything. This is not true. Before you give away or
sell that old laptop without replacing it consider these things your laptop can
do better than your smartphone. Huawei MateBook X Pro Huawei MateBook X Pro
Managing email A lot of us now check our emails on our smartphones and tap out
responses when needed, but is this really such a good idea? Try turning off
notifications from your mobile email client for a while and see if you actually
miss it.
What’s certain is you can’t manage your email on a phone the
same way you can on a computer. Take Gmail on the desktop web and Gmail on
mobile, for instance. Here’s just some of the stuff you can do on the web but
not your phone: Drag emails between categories, email groups of contacts,
quickly switch between plain text and rich text, and send money with a message.
Getting online Every modern browser comes with a mobile equivalent that will
happily sync across browsing histories and passwords and bookmarks—but spend
any extended time on the web and it’s clear the mobile experience just doesn’t
stand up to what you can get through the browser on your desktop.
Most sites are suitably optimized for online viewing, and so
flicking through stories is straightforward enough. Editing photos Smartphone
apps are good for adding filters on top of photos and that’s about it. If
you’re doing anything more than uploading something to Instagram then you need
to really consider whether a laptop or desktop is better for the job. First,
you’ve got a much bigger screen to work with, and that means getting a better
view of your pictures and the edits you’re making. Second, you’ve got the
benefit of a keyboard and mouse—much more precise tools when you’re trying to
cut out pixels or blend shapes or crop a particular area.
Writing and editing anything Obviously, you can’t tap out
your next great novel on a smartphone screen as easily as you can on a
keyboard. But the benefits of writing on a computer rather than a mobile go way
beyond the convenience of the input device. There’s the ease with which you can
highlight, copy and paste, for example—the keyboard shortcuts come in handy
here—which means you’re not hampered as soon as you want to do anything other
than just type. Let’s not forget how simple a computer makes it get up multiple
windows on macOS or Windows, making referencing and cross-referencing
substantially easier than it is through the multitasking available on Android
and iOS.

Arsenal, a prominent team in the Premier League, has reached out regarding a potential transfer for highly sought-after Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen. They aim to secure his move from the Italian side Napoli. The 25-year-old has established himself as a prolific striker in Europe during his three-and-a-half years with Napoli, scoring 67 goals in 119 appearances across all competitions. Osimhen, who won the Golden Boot last season with 26 goals in 32 Serie A matches, played a crucial role in Napoli clinching their first Scudetto title in three decades. Despite signing a contract extension until June 2026 in December, the player is expected to leave Napoli in the summer, with interest from top European clubs such as Real Madrid and PSG. In the Premier League, Arsenal and Chelsea are believed to be the main contenders for his signature.

A House of Representatives member representing Ideato Federal Constituency in Imo state, Ikenga Ugochinyere, has said that some South-East governors have failed to bring an end to the crisis in the region because they are benefiting from it. Ugochinyere made the allegation while appearing on Arise TV on Wednesday morning, July 12. “There’s so much power that the president has in the constitution that he could use to bring this matter to a close within the shortest possible time. But the South-East leaders need to sit down to find a common ground over this issue of insecurity. The most important thing is that we want peace in the South-East because everywhere is devastated. Erosion is killing us. Infrastructure has collapsed. And then we cannot even sleep because our houses are being burnt and our people are being killed. This is not good. Any leader that wants the progress and unity of Nigeria definitely will open his doors to allow stakeholders to come in to allow stakeholders to fi
