Like maybe you wanna just lay in bed and watch on your phone instead of having to sit up in a chair for laptop or on a sofa for tv.
Basically: Convienience vs Big Screen? Which is more important to you?
I’ll wait. The phone screen is too fucking small and the sound is a joke. Phones are for memes and shit. I bought that fucking 4K TV for movies. I hardly use it, but that’s what it’s for.
Videos for entertainment are pretty much a big screen (tablet or preferably larger) only thing for me. But when for example I’m in my bike workshop and want to watch some bike maintenance video, I’ll watch that on my phone.
Depends what it is. I’m perfectly happy watching an animation spectacle with good music (say, KPop Demon Hunters) or a drama (say, Steve Jobs) on my 6.9" ~1440p iPhone screen, especially with AirPods. The iPhone 16 Pro Max is loud enough for anyone to hear, but it’s not exactly clear. Hence the AirPods.
Now if I want to watch Interstellar, I’m gonna watch that on the 55" 4K TV, especially the beautiful scenes. The drama, the parts in the house or on the ship or whatever? Doesn’t really matter. But the big space scenes, or the planet with the waves? Big screen all the way.
The only issue I have with the phone screen is holding it. I’d rather watch on my MacBook. 15" screen, great sound even without headphones, so it’s almost big enough for watching movies on (but for epic shots, I still like watching them on the TV).
I don’t really like watching video on my phone, so I’ll pretty much always go for the nearest bigger screen unless there’s no option to do that.
I honestly think most of the time I would just not watch the video rather than watch on my phone
I wouldn’t want to watch anything for more than a couple of minutes of a phone screen, too inconvenient to have to hold all the time. Laptop is the most convenient, even laying in bed - because it stands up on its own.
Big screen for me. For some reason I hate watching videos on my phone. Maybe because I’m tired of being glued to it.
I use the big TV for stuff I watch with family, little screen is fine for just me.
Big screen. I want to actually be able to see the details in the media I’m watching.
Also, I want to be able to put my phone down and not have to hold it the entire time I’m trying to watch a show or something.
The inconveniences of watching things on a phone far outweigh the inconvenience of just getting up to watch on the PC or TV.
I watch most stuff on an old surface4 laptop/tablet. Haven’t had a big TV in years. Pc has 2x 27" Monitors but they’re for gaming, work and schooling.
I save certain videos from certain creators for the computer at home. Some things I’ll watch while on lunch at work, but those are the small screen things.
This is one of the reasons I also have an iPad. That and reading ebooks. I mainly don’t like watching on the phone because I have to either hold it up the whole time, or I wind up hunched over and hurting my back.
Big screen. I’m only watching anything on my phone if I’m on public transit and out of downloaded podcasts
Big screen. If I’m watching something on my phone I’m not enjoying it, I’m merely passing time.
I travel a lot, so I have a bunch of stuff downloaded onto my laptop. And a lot of that stuff I have mirrored onto my phone. And on top of that I have additional stuff loaded onto a tiny USB C drive that I can plug into both for when I want to store stuff for later loading onto my phone.
I often find myself watching an ep on my phone in an airport lounge, and doing the next ep on my laptop on the plane.
Generally, I’m not that picky in terms of screen size, I usually go for the biggest screen conveniently available. And my laptop has the additional benefit of allowing me to use my Roland headset.
EDIT: Splelign is hrad.
Phone wins when (Watch time) < ( time spent to get it on big screen).
