    Portability of Mobile devices (for example, laptops, notebooks, netbooks, smartphones, tablets

    and game consoles).

    Laptops- as the name of their categorization implies, laptops can be easily carried from one place
    to another as they are much smaller in size when compared to desktop computers and they weigh
    far less. Hence, it can be said that laptops are highly portable, especially when compared to your
    classic desktop setup. Laptops are designed for mobile computing, intended to combine the
    functionality of a desktop with mobility. Features such as the keyboard, display device and
    mouse are built into the device. Their portability is clearly evident in day-to-day life, where
    various individuals can be seen in possession of a laptop device and having little to no trouble
    transporting it

    Notebooks- designed to be light (2.5 to 4.5 lbs) and provide basic computing services, notebooks
    possess a bit more portability than that of laptops while harboring more flexibility (pun
    intended ;) in their usage. These devices possess a thickness of less than one inch, and are often
    crafted utilizing materials such as aluminium and carbon fibre. The screen size may range from
    11 to15 inches.

    Netbooks- with screen sizes ranging from 7 to 10 inches, are more portable than its previously
    mentioned counterparts. They are designed to provide even more basic computing services than
    the notebook, a result of investing in the portability of the device by reducing size and weight.

    Smartphones- regardless of the originating company, smartphones are one of the most portable
    devices to be created, evident by the fact that most individuals from developed nations have a
    smartphone just in their pockets, whipping it out whenever they feel the need to utilize the
    device. Not only are smartphones lightweight, but their size makes it so very easy to carry the
    device around on one’s person as it was intended to be. They’re so portable some people might
    be seen with multiple at once.

    Tablets- The result of the desire to continue increasing portability while maintaining
    functionality is the creation of devices such as these. Tables are also an extremely portable
    device, due to their lightweight composition and smaller size than laptops. Similar to
    smartphones, given you have big enough pockets, even tablets may be carried on your person
    throughout day to day activities.

    Game consoles- a widely known example being the Nintendo Switch, game consoles have had
    an improvement in their ability to be easily transported by an individual across distances. With
    built-in speakers, display, controls, input means and other things, being able to carry around your
    favourite games and playing then at any moment has become a reality via ingenious design of the
    console. The utilization of light-weight parts and minimizing bulkiness has made game consoles
    highly portable/ transportable.
