# 3. Limitations of smartphones
The answer is no ! Smartphones are not enough to completely replace a PC.
The first reason: About the ability to replace hardware. Not to mention Laptops, PC computers give you the ability to customize your hardware as you like.
You can replace CPU, GPU, custom Ram and Rom, radiators, upgrade modules and drivers via software, etc., replacing it at your own discretion, to meet your needs.
Smartphones cannot do that. You can only replace an existing component when it's broken, not customize what the OEM has arranged unless you buy a new device.
The second reason is dedicatedness: You cannot program on a smartphone. If so, which platform will you program? Java? Or some simple electronic devices?
It is not natural that people render videos, edit media on PCs. It's also not natural that people use PCs to edit or type instead of smartphones.
Reason 3: Smartphone to be able to turn into a PC will lose Mobile. Smartphones were born and became more popular than Tablet due to its mobility.
And to turn a smartphone into a PC, with the technologies that OEM smartphones provide us, we need a smartphone, a keyboard and a mouse. It's not much more than carrying a laptop with you.
