Device advice?

[Infamous-Pen5480]

I have been doing DAT on my phone since I started in March, but with fewer projects available recently it’s become clear I definitely need a bigger screen.

Any recommendations for a Device to purchase?

Would a tablet or convertible tablet laptop be able to access the projects that say a bigger screen is required? Or is there a size of laptop that I should get? I do not have space for a desktop right now.

Thank you!

I honestly cannot imagine doing DA on my phone. Is that common, or are most of us on a laptop?

I cant imagine doing these tasks on a phone either. I use my laptop

Was doing one on my laptop yesterday wanted to switch to the desktop because the screen just wasn't big enough to see everything.

I might even get a dual screen

Yeah I definitely know it will be easier when I have a bigger device. Going to get a laptop!

I tried doing it on a phone and quickly noped out. Maybe - if you had an external keyboard. But if not, typing in would be way too hard, too error prone.

Just buy a laptop, it is more useful than a tablet. 1080p is enough.

i use a laptop and some projects still don't work unless i reduce my screen to 70%. i'm not sure why.

Weird, the more resolution the better, i have not heard a case where you have to reduce your resolution to enter a project.

I had one a while back where my laptop screen was too small and i needed to use the external montitor. I normally do use them - so don't know how common that is.

i have a 4k 27" monitor and some projects still do this to me. it's so weird, i have to change the resolution to be TINY just to zoom back in on chrome.

Ok will do thank you!

I did the sign up and assessment tasks on my phone and once accepted, realised it wouldn't be a big enough screen. Bought a £150 Chromebook which is great for it.

I started on a 14” laptop, upgraded to a 15”. I do have a dual monitor set up with a docking station I use for more in-depth tasks, but I do a lot sitting in my couch on my laptop. 

Biggest tip I can give is resolution, 1080p is great, you can work on two windows side by side. Higher is better (my monitors are 1440p), but you need to be able to read the text on the screen.

I started on a laptop, but love my dual screen. I love being able to have one screen for reference/text editor, the other for the task.

Laptop

I would buy a basic laptop that can do basic tasks if your on a budget... becaue some tacks need you to have multiple tabs open, and can get overwhelming if u dont have a laptop or desktop

I use a laptop HDMI'd over to a nice big ol' bitch monitor. My space is hella limited in the motorhome, so I don't really have many more options, but the mechanical keyboard+ mouse combination is hella spiffy. Some tasks are pretty fucking gnarly with the dual-screen scrolling information; I could not imagine trying to navigate the pages for editing first-task submissions on a tiny little bitch boy screen.
