Which Is The Best Small Screen For You? This Is The Tech You Have To Use

Technology can be funny sometimes, and getting a ‘small screen‘ to suit you can be tough.

There was a time when bigger was considered better.

Then, we went through a reverse phase that included boasting about having the smallest phone amongst friends.

Over the last decade, though, we have come to an understanding where the screen sizes are just about right, not too big, nor too small.

Still, there are enough variations in the market when it comes to screen sizes and their applications that one needs to spend a little time before investing in any new device.

For the purpose of this article, we will consider small screens as anything below a standard laptop.

However, you’ll see that with modern technology entering the market, tablets becoming more popular than ever, and smartphones upping their game, there is quite a bit of variety in screen types, especially when we consider mobile devices.

The concept of Netflix and chill is no longer a Millennial trend, but a part of our daily lives now.

With more streaming options entering the market such as Tamilyogi, our small screens have become the ideal viewing choice for watching the latest blockbusters.

However, remember that once you decide on the perfect display to watch a show, it is essential to first download the newest entertainment streaming app on your device.

As for the screen, there is the possibility of installing an image magnifier to increase its size. Unfortunately, magnifiers take away from the quality of the picture.

Therefore, for a movie buff, either opt for a tablet or else pick the LG V40 ThinQ.

The brand is already known for its television sets, and the phone comes with added features like Netflix picture-in-picture, HDR, and zoom to fill, that make your movie viewing experience all the better.
