The answer is no, for sure, in the present situation, taking into consideration that smartphones have developed very rapidly, but that doesn’t mean they can replace computers anytime soon.
Computers have their own set of benefits compared to smartphones in several different ways. Smartphones are handy to carry and use, but computers are like powerhouses.
We have options for multiple things, like upgrades in the form of hardware and software, when it comes to computers, which are not possible on smartphones.
Things we can modify on computers
You can get the desired screen with the desired specifications, like From smaller screens to enormous wall screens with different variations and technologies like CRT, LCD, LED, PLASMA, OLED, etc., with aesthetics to match the environment in your area, which is not possible to get on smartphones.
We can design everything from scratch and can match your needs with the perfect set of hardware like Processors, RAM, Storage, and Graphics as well.
You can even match used components to get more out of the least amount of investment to get the desired performance in various aspects. Computers are performance-oriented devices, whereas smartphones are made for portability.
Rise of the Smartphone Market
When we dig into an economic aspect, the smartphone market has grown at an unprecedented rate in the last two decades, owing primarily to affordability and portability. The Indian population mainly comprises more youths.
Over the last two decades, the computer market drastically declined in productivity and profits, giving rise to a picture of how computers will be replaced by smartphones.
Then, Cryptocurrency came to light, and people eagerly adopted it, followed by mining and other stuff, giving rise to the computer market in present times.
Suddenly, a pandemic hit the world and increased the rapid demand for work-from-home setups as well as the demand for computers, laptops, and their components like never before.
Once again, it proved that computers can never be replaced by Smartphones or its other subsidiary electronics.
Let’s see where else computer are used more prominently. The sectors are Information Technology (IT), Gaming, Science, Medical, Software Development, Research Fields, and more.

Necessity of Computers
Even though smartphones and computers co-existed in the market for the last two decades, a decline in computer and laptop sales was seen only person to person.
In commercial sales, the graph is higher than the smartphone because computers were required to develop and deploy the final product in various fields, such as the IT sector for research and development.
The big giants like Intel, AMD, and other players have invested trillions of dollars in the development of computing, so it’s giving a clear indication that the market has a good sustainability index soon.
In today’s world, from cars to houses, we’re powered by tiny computers with Artificial Intelligence everywhere, helping humankind to do tasks more efficiently than ever before in the present decades.
The future will be a combo of both smartphones and computers. But it was never unanimous for the reasons mentioned here. Because a computer is always required to build many computers and smartphones, there is no such thing as vice versa.
