Which device do you prefer for gambling ?

[ajiz138]

Desktop: Is the preferred device for playing gambling because with a more flexible display I now spend more in front of the Desktop so more often bet with this device.

Mobile: The simplest device when there is boredom in front of the Desktop then I will switch to mobile to play gambling while lying on the couch or traveling then I can still access the casino to bet at any time, this is a simpler device but more people use even if they don't have a Desktop / Laptop.

I think you should combine desktop and laptop or just allow us to vote more than one. To the topic - I refrain from playing on mobile phone since I find the small screen inconvenient and I also don't like how games eats battery life faster. Not playing on mobile also helps me not to bet on impulse as it gives me more time to think before I get to my desktop.

I can't guess exactly but I think I have came across topic like this then but don't know if the post was made in the gambling board or other sections. Usually I prefer using smartphone to access my bets or place my bet online, reason being that when you use phone it's only focused to you alone and someone else might not know what you are doing except that person is extremely fast to have pictured what you are doing on your phone. For the time being I do use laptop that is when I have many things to attend to, I will add the next tab to quickly view my games If they are running accordingly to how I predicted them.

Desktop is the best kind of device for gambling gameplay. The screen is large, luminosity is fine without you having to worry about running out of battery, you have a mouse and keyboard, which give much more accuracy to your commands. On the other hand, through mobile devices there isn't any accurancy when using your fingers on a small screen to configure your game settings, click the roll button, deposit and cashout your funds. Personally, I've never gambled at mobile devices, being them tablets or smartphones, because I think it's too risky something goes wrong at anytime.

We have similar thread in the past that discuss the which is gamblers preference between desktop and mobile devices, I think that old thread is locked now, but in that thread many of us stated the reason why we prefer one to the other, for example those that choose desktop for playing games believe that with desktop the have a wider screen while those that mentioned Mobile device states that with mobile devices for gaming they can play on the go unlike desktop which isn't easy to carry around.

A lot of gambling sites have emerged during and after the Covid-19 era and a lot of people have since then joined the gambling community.
We now have a wider audience who likes to gamble on desktop, laptop, mobile phone etc...
This poll is to see the most preferred device for gambling which I assume should be desktop as it provides a bigger screen and better user experience than any other device.
But a lot of people prefer mobile phones too and so lets just hit it and see what the actual results are.

First let me say that I am a mobile user. I do all my cryptocurrency work with this mobile though I have a laptop at home but I don't use laptop for my work as mobile devices are most convenient for me as I can use them anywhere. Here I use mobile device for gambling I don't use laptop for gambling. I can access every gambling site with my mobile without any problem. Also I can open gambling site with my mobile phone whenever I want, I have no problem accessing it even if I am in remote area but if I am far away it is not possible to access it from laptop or computer so mobile gambling is my favorite.

I have voted for desktop and with all of the replies here, the tally is 5 for desktop, 5 for mobile and 5 for laptop while there's no vote yet for tablet. For someone who likes to travel as a gambler, for sure that you guys have been bringing all of these devices with you except the desktop. Obviously, you can't bring your desktop with you but laptop, smartphone and tablets can be carried wherever you go.
The cons of these devices is that they're all battery operated and you have to always check it out when you carry them so that you will be able to use them if you want to gamble anytime. That's why a responsible gambler will check his devices if they're fully charged or at least 80% before they go. Whilst for the desktops, there's no need for that, they're plug and play and you're not going to think of any battery as it's going to last while you have electricity or until it wears out. If it's for comfort, we're all agreeing that desktops are the best compared to small screens of laptops, tablets and smartphones but there goes the pros and cons of each devices. But if you own all of them, then you have been blessed and prepared for anything.

I do not gamble online. I have never gambled online and I do not intend to ever gamble online.

Since I do not bet sports and when I gamble I like cards I prefer to be in an actual room with real players. Mostly poker.

I suppose I could play horse online but I like to see the more I'm betting on in person. I like to look the horse and the jockey in the eyes if I can do it which means betting at a racetrack.

mobile is the most practical one, I basically carry my phone around as if it were one of my extremities, so it is easy to just jump and bet, while being able to use it nearly anywhere etcs. But despite being practical, it is not the most interesting device because it simply tends to be just too small. The tablet offers an optimum experience and is reasonably light as well.

[Woodie]

As much as playing on a handheld device such as a mobile device is convenient, it's actually not the best option as interface is not as user friendly as the desktop version, and some functionality gets limited às the experience gets optimised which doesn't give the user the full power of the platform...For example, I have had first hand experience on most of these platforms with regards to cashouts and realised that it's easy to get a cashout on Desktop than it is on mobile which I don't understand, then for casino games depending on game provider some experience doesn't change but for some the gameplay and UI do have a different feel.. otherwise Desktop experience is superior over all other platforms.

[Hispo]

Laptop or desktop in my case.
Using those options it makes easier for me to be focused on what I am doing, instead of multitasking, even though I know it is not always like that, using a tablet or smarth phone could lead to people to develop a bad habit and gamble in situations and places where they are not supposed to gamble at all.
So to me, it is better just to gamble during what I would call "spare time", setting the mood with some music, keeping the phone and people apart and focusing on who my wagering goes. That way it is easier to take better decisions on how one is supposed to manage the bankroll, whether to continue to gamble or retire from the casino, etc.
It is just more comfortable.

I don't quite understand how there is people who can gamble or bet while they are in a club or a bar, having drinks and hanging out with women, it would be very difficult for me to manage bankroll or make a sound choice in that context...

[Nrcewker]

The device doesn’t matter at all to be honest. If the site is good and optimised for each and every device, then what device you are using doesn’t matter at all. But practically I have seen, gambling in a desktop gives wider view and makes you feel positive. You can interact with the chatroom along while placing the bets, which mobile device doesn’t offer. Hence, if you personally ask me then I would prefer desktop or laptop over the mobile phones to gamble and place the bets.

[Obari]

I do not have a tablet. I wish to have one but I did not have because I have laptop and phone which are enough. But gambling will be very good on tablets just like PC.

I gamble more on phone because my phone is always with me than my laptop. But laptop is better. Phones are excellent also actually.

What’s the thing with gambling on larger screen?🤔
Basically, I thought the term large screen should be used more by traders and why is it creeping into gambling? It seems there are a whole lot of things I’m missing out from and hence, I need to catch up 🥺

Personally, I think my phone is enough to place any bet conveniently and comfortably without having to be bothered by the size of the screen and the rest of that.

But away from that, I place bet with any available device and even in a physical casino but in cases where I have to make a choice, then I think my phone would be my first choice.

I don't think I have to pick a favorite device when these days, one owns all devices mentioned and does much more work, in any sitting or resting or working position with this devices.
As long as I have a good internet connection or am looking for good data consumption rate and good battery power and am working from a remote location, I may love to gamble if need be, using my mobile phones because it is handy, easily controlled from prying and I can bring it out anywhere because am bored or waiting in queue and gamble on the spot.

[coin-investor]

When it comes to gambling I prefer a personal computer, I have good concentration with a wide screen and I can only gamble at specific times that will help me to avoid becoming addicted to gambling, I have a friend who easily gets addicted because he gambles with his cellphone and he bet almost every hour or when there's nothing to do like when he is commuting or when having a break in his work.

There's a time for everything we all know the more you indulge and if there's a way to play anytime, anyplace you could become addicted to gambling so I prefer to play using my personal computer because of my preference and I want to limit my time playing, and only when I'm home.

[michellee]

Because I am at home more often, I use my laptop to gamble. But when I'm out of the house and want to gamble, I use my cell phone. But I still prefer using a laptop or desktop because it has a full screen which makes it easier for me to enjoy gambling.

I think it depends on how often we gamble using each device. We will choose a device that we feel comfortable using. It will also depend on where we are so that the device can help us enjoy the gambling game.

Everything will return to comfort when we gamble. But I have never experienced gambling using a tablet because I don't have one. Using a laptop, desktop, or cellphone are the devices that I usually use to gamble. But I vote for laptop

The last time I remember when I was using my phone was with the fiat sportsbook. Ever since I am in crypto I always use the laptop and also use the VPN. In crypto my privacy is important so no clean internet, and mobile device. I think mobile devices are easy to expose your IP.

If you are using Linux, that is better. But if you are using Windows or macOS, they will invade your privacy just as much as Android. There are some phone OS that are open source which can also be used. People that wants privacy can use either phone or computer but they have to know what they are doing. VPN can also be installed on phones.

I don't care about the device. All I care about is the User Interface of the casino/sportsbook.
I usually prefer desktop/laptop, but if the casino/sportsbook has a convenient app with great design, I don't mind using my smartphone as well. Having a bigger screen doesn't change anything, unless you have problems with your eyes. A bigger screen won't solve the issues with a bad User Interface or the lack of certain features. I can assume that some people hate gambling on a smartphone, because they might click on the wrong place on the touch screen and make a mistake. Having a big keyboard eliminates that risk.

Desktop and laptop are not computers. No need of differentiating them into category. Refer to them as PC.

I do not have a tablet. I wish to have one but I did not have because I have laptop and phone which are enough. But gambling will be very good on tablets just like PC.

I gamble more on phone because my phone is always with me than my laptop. But laptop is better. Phones are excellent also actually.

Desktops and Laptops are not computers just because he failed to ad d computer side Desktop computers and Laptop computers? We all get what he is saying either ways, he is talking about computers anyways, I understand and I am sure many people did too, as you can see, you are the only one saying this, no one cares.

Bigger screens are my favourite, even in trading the difference is big, you can see the details very well, I will love to gamble on a computer because of the gaming experience as I prefer slots more than anything else.

Gambling on phone is easier but not all online casinos look nicer on a smartphone screen, the choice is yours though, also I don't want to keep gambling on phone because it could trigger more reasons to keep gambling for me, apart from reading and posting using my phone on this from, I prefer doing other things like trading and gambling on my computer.
