Is mining with mobile device a profitable venture today? I read a bit about this and learned that Monero maybe worth mining. then there's Electroneum as well. I wanted to know from other's experience.

One might ask why spend on buying phones. Instead get a PC. Thing is I have few old phones that I can't sell, I want to see possibility of getting some cost back before giving/throwing them away

It will make your phone damaged, try buying a VGA Card to start mining.

VGA Card? Now I'm confused, we all know that a Phone has a built-in Hardware components, including the CPU, Memory, the camera, right? So why the heck are you recommending this person to buy a freaking VGA Card?

That's hilarious, I don't want to be rude man but this is a serious matter.

             You're actually right! Since PC is more recommendable rather than mobile phone, aside from that there's a lot of specs disadvantage from mobile phone compared to PC. It will also be rough for your mobile phone to be used in mining altcoins because it is too way impossible to mine bitcoin by those specs.

Mining isn't bad but its all depends. Its not only bitcoin we can mine other alt-coin i myself mining XMR ( Monero ). You can earn some profit with the help of mobile device. But it can be effected on your mobile battery.  I think we should use the PC with high specs if we want to get some profit after all from the mining.

No i will not suggest anyone to mine bitcoins with mobile devices unless you want to destroy the device.
there's not a proper colling in mobile devices and it might get into bad position,

at this total network size, anything less than a dedicated mining device is ultimately a waste of time Sad  you just wont be able to compete with a device designed to hash; your device is essentially emulating the same process. dont do this. besides being inefficient, using your device in this manner will degrade it prematurely. they arent designed for the load the emulation process puts on a non dedicated device.

Definitely, it is more advisable to use pc than using mobile phones for easy and safe mining. And you should expect for high electric bills if you start into mining investment because possible that your pc will run for a whole day mining operation that certainly add cost to your expenses. But it still be worthy because the more you have a mining pc installed the more hash power you've got and a big chances that you can mined more coins compared to used only one pc.

Think that better question here is why to mine something with mobile device.
If someone want to mine better invest in some rig and then start mining with mobile devices (phones and tablets) is waste of time better spend that time on faucets then you will more with this method rather then with mining on your phone.

Why on earth would you use your mobile phone for mining? That makes no sense and it's not worth waisting time and your mobile phone. If you realy want to do serious mining get some proper equipement. Although if I were in your place I wouldn't mining at all. These days if you are not having a farm it's just not profitable enough.

Mining with mobile device is like drinking water with the spoon. You`d better buy some good ASIC/gpu and don`t waste your time

All Mobile is not support mining but if you use high quality mobile device then you can use it for mining . Mining is a three system but mobile and pc use only cpu mining so just open one tab and start mining with your device.

I tried to mine with my cellphone, just for fun, I wanted to see its hash rate, it wasnt that bad
But after a few minutes it started to get really hot... And just to get a few satoshis, I wouldnt recommend it

It is not worth it to mine with mobile phone or tablet. The performance is much lower than high end desktop graphics cards, perhaps hundreds of times lower, not to mention the Bitcoin ASIC miners. You may not get any share with your mobile phone. Now the only way to profit in bitcoin mining is Bitcoin ASIC miner.

It's hard to mine using mobile phone rven it is easiy to handle with only one hand, but it can't handle mining more bitcoin in a day. And it is harmful from virus it can easily adopt it, and I really suggest computers.

That is why technology built a hardware which can be used in mining. Because they knew mobile devices may end up breaking itself if it resist the pressure that mining can give to that certain phone. So we should don't recommend mining using our mobile phones because we knew what will happened. Breaking a mobile phone for satoshi is nonsense!

For me, I don't think it's a good idea, since mobile doesn't have fans or some cooler to make it able to mine for a long time. Also most of mining aren't bitcoin but only altcoins. It may also even cost you a lot if ever your mobile get destroy.

Ive tried mining with my mobile device and its not working. I think it is only a waste of time and may cause my mobile to broke. Ive watched many videos about mining and they spend a lot of money to buy some expensive computer parts for their mining and earn only a small amount of bitcoin.

You can use the Electroneum app to mine Electroneum and then sell it and buy BTC instead. The app does not use much power on the phone. Its more a kind of POS (prove of stake) than POW (prove or work).

I don't think that it would be beneficial to even mine a Monero using a mobile device because that might even end really up to a year to mine one. If you can have a PC to mine for that then that would be good because it's worth than you just mine it on mobile because if that happens maybe your mobile would end up worse or being damaged. Just keep in mind also that if you are into mining plan ahead to pay electric bills that much.
I think more you use PC or other hardware that is adequate to mine, so you can freely and not vulnerable to damage to hardware that you use. Many tools that can be used to mine one of them is a PC with sufficient capacity to mine.
