What effect does moving away from computers and forward tablets and smartphones have on how we browse the internet?

Astonishingly, most people have smartphones near them right now! A smartphone is a mobile cellular device that can perform tasks such as calling, texting, browsing the internet, and downloading applications.
Brief history of smartphone.The first smartphone was created by IBM in 1992 called Simon. The next year, Simon was placed on the market by a company named BellSouth. BellSouth’s new phone could not browse the internet, yet this new technology could send and receive emails. Nowadays, Apple and Samsung are the most popular smartphones with their IPhone’s and Galaxies. Smartphones are a new trend growing rapidly in the world. Furthermore, smartphones are replacing common objects such as calculators, telephones, voice recorders, alarm clocks, and flashlights . Some people believe that smartphones are taking over the lives of individuals in a negative way, while others believe this advancement is a huge, positive step in the advancement of technology. The percentage of people in the world with smartphones is astonishing, from IPhones to Samsung’s and millions of emails sent, smartphones are the growing trend in today’s pop culture. 
       first advantages of smartphone cost of Cell phones, specifically smartphones, can vary in price based on power and various features, but not as much as computers. Prices can be $100 to $500 in most cases with a contract. Portability of Smartphones, while a bit bigger than a standard cell phone, are still more portable than any computer. They are very lightweight and can fit in a purse or pants pocket with ease. They are designed to be taken everywhere with you, thus the very definition of portable.And connectivity of Smartphones have a data plan that allows them to be connected to the Internet at all times, as long as the phone is receiving a signal from a cell phone tower.
      But they also have their own drawbacks. First power of Smartphones are more compact and do not have the capability of providing the amount of power and cooling that more powerful processors require. They are limited to lower voltage processors, although processors of this type are becoming more advanced and powerful. Second screen size of Smartphones, due to their smaller size, feature smaller screen sizes ranging from 2.5" to 4.8", with a few exceptions. To get a bigger screen size (up to 10"), you would have to venture into the tablet market, which can sometimes feature phone call capabilities, but that is not standard. Then storage of  Some smartphones come with built-in storage, ranging from 8 GB to 64 GB. In some cases, an expansion slot may be available for adding an additional memory chip for more storage capacity. Smartphones, in general, will offer less storage capacity than a computer, but for most users, the storage provided is more than adequate. As memory chips increase in size, so will the storage capacity of a smartphone. And list can go on. 
     I think smartphones will come up solution that would not have their basic drawbacks. And I also think in the future computers would not have much role.

OS

An operating system, or OS, is a common computer piece in the world today. An OS is an intricate set of software programs that helps organize information within a computer’s hardware. It can store information and retrieve it from memory systems or the hard drive. It can also direct applications and programs within the computer or from portable sources. In essence, an operating system communicates between the hardware and the programs as an organizational tool. For example, when you click on a program file to retrieve stored information, it is the operating system that communicates the command to the hardware, which pulls up the desired information. This means the only way that programs and hardware can interact is through the operating system, which determines the set of procedures and regulations they must follow to maintain order in the computer system. There are also many different types of operating systems. Some are more commonly used than others, but all have benefits. Some, b
