taking up visual info is much faster, than audio info. Plus you have control over the flow and much more flexible UX.

going into audio mode is a completely different attention pattern, and definitely not casual.

Definitely agree that there is a time and place for visual content. But phones just feel so 2010s, carrying black square around with you to watch junk content just won't cut it in the new decade.

Laptops are far better for visual since you can focus on longer-form content and are less distracted.

Certainly true. However, so much of what I view on my phone is just noise. A few phone calls and messages a day would be perfectly suited for audio-only. For the rest, I’d be better off on my laptop.
