A laptop or a tablet
Before I joined WA, I am happy using my smartphone in everything I do that requires technology in it, browsing, social medias, watching videos, video chatting, name it! That's how useful my smartphone to me. But now that i joined WA, it's usefulness became my subject of confusion.
You see. I signed up in WA for me to see what I can truly learn from it. Before I joined WA, I attended a workshop regarding Internet Marketing and I really did love the knowledge I acquired from them, but the thing was, the workshop I attended was only a free introductory seminar. Yeah you're right, it means that it's just the summary of what I can get from enrolling to their course. But oh man, it's too pricey for me, I can't seem to spend that much but that time I thought of joining them next time if I already got the budget needed to enroll. That's when i stumbled upon WA while looking for less expensive courses.
Now that I'm already part of the community and upgraded to premium in just a couple of days, that's how confident I was that I can truly learn from it and used it in my success. I want to be serious in learning and get involve inside the community while implementing all I've learned outside the circle.
So here's the catch, since I only have my smartphone as my tool, (can only use computer while at work when my boss isn't around,lol, and just borrowing my roommate's laptop when at home), what do you think could be the best tool between laptop and tablet? I already owned a tablet, it's a samsung 10.1 2014 edition ( just for you guys to know what the specs of my tablet was).But I left it in my homeland so my in-laws can use it to have a video chat with me whenever my husband isn't around.
Assume that my tablet is with me, do you think guys it's already enough in writing a blog, updating my website, completing the courses and interacting inside the community? I was also planning to get a laptop just for this journey but I'm kinda hesitant in spending money for it. But I know laptop or netbook or notebook is much more convenient to use in this kind of work.
So please kindly give me some insights and comments in helping me to decide since I know that most of you guys engage in this business for too long now.
Thanks :)

Congratulations on your first WA blog Nina, well done. The majority of my engagement on WA is via smart phone , I am constantly on the move so this works well. With this I use a laptop, it is a faithful friend. The most important thing in this line of business is having a stable connection.
Thanks alexander! Your right, a stable connection is basically the important thing. How abut your thoughts for a tablet?
Definitely looking to upgrade in the tablet department, it will make life a lot more productive when engaging on the go.
I recently got a Toshiba Satellite laptop, mainly for the purpose of building an online business here at WA. It wasn't too pricey (around $800 AUD).
I would definitely recommend a laptop over anything else! Best of luck with your decision :)
Oh my! your laptop still sounds pricey for me, lol. But with the kind of brand you bought, it's already a good buy. Thanks for your thoughts! :)
Of course you can get them a lot cheaper second hand. My previous 1 only cost me $200 second hand :)
They also sell secondhand laptop here, just kind of hesitant to buy. :) What do you think the kind of specification needed in an online business?
I'm no real computer expert, but you only really need a computer that does the basics I'd say :)

Hi Nina, I would prefer to use a laptop so that I can edit pictures easily, using shortcut keys for fast content editing and install grammar check extension to my browser.
You do not need a high spec laptop, but ensure you have fast and stable internet connections.
If borrowing a laptop is convenient for you currently, I would advise not to buy one first. When you start making money from your online business, you can consider buying one then. It is a great motivation. :)
Thanks for dropping by edmund :) .. You're would be a great motivation for me to strive more, thanks! I also think that laptop is more way convenient. Hoping I can control myself not to buy laptop first
