Some people say that now we can see films on our phones or tablets, and there is no need to go to the cinema. Others say that to be fully enjoyed, films need to be seen in a cinema. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.

With the arrival of the 21st century and the development of technologies, as opposed to the past, nowadays, people have the ability to watch films through their
smartphones
and tablets while at home.
However
, due to the fact that the traditional way of watching films in a
cinema
is still alive, people have disputes about what method of viewing films is the best. From my point of view, using modern gadgets to watch movies is the finest approach. There are not only
smartphones
and tablets in our home, a
person
also
can use his TV or PC to see a
cinema
. All those gadgets have a good
quality
screen
where no pixels can not be seen. It is not necessary to go to the
cinema
for a better
quality
picture, because, human eyes do not see the divergence. What about the
sound
? Approximately five years ago, new technology of 5D
sound
had been developed.
Thus
, headphones with the 5D
sound
support could bring the same feelings as if the individual was actually involved in the
film
. Another point is that it is cheaper than going to the
cinema
. Nowadays, the
person
has a variety of choice subscriptions to streaming services,
such
as Netflix, Yandex and IVI. One month's subscription payment equals one adult ticket to the
cinema
.
Furthermore
, with those services
person
will get an infinitive amount of TV shows and movies to watch.
On the other hand
,
cinema
also
has its own advantages.
To begin
with, the excellent
quality
of the movie. Sitting in the chairs provides a huge
screen
in front of you, unlike
smartphones
, which
screen
is one hundred times smaller in size.
Moreover
, the atmosphere of the
film
also
increases in grade because of the speakers, which are placed all around the hall. Viewers can hear
sound
from his right, left, back and front, thereby enhancing immersion in the
film
.
Besides
, a
person
has the ability to bring and watch a movie with his friends and the number is not limited. They can
also
immediately discuss the
film
after its ending. In conclusion, the
quality
, atmosphere and the ability to watch with friends makes going to the
cinema
a good option.
However
, from my perspective, using modern technologies and viewing via
smartphones
is the best, due to the cost, same
quality
of
sound
and
screen
.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
