Technology has evolved a lot in recent years and phones, and tablets have become more powerful and affordable
due to
Linking Words
which some people prefer to watch films on them

others say that films should be seen in a
cinema

to be fully enjoyed. In the next paragraphs, we will discuss both perspectives and I will give my opinion on it. On the one hand, technology makes our life simpler and more flexible. To illustrate, everyone has a hectic schedule and doesn’t have enough time to go to the
cinema
Use synonyms
and watch a movie.
By contrast
Linking Words
, people like to watch films
while
Linking Words
commuting or when they want to relax on their couch or bed.
Moreover
Linking Words
, streaming websites have a vast catalogue of movies
whereas
Linking Words
in theatres only a few of them run at a time.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, people think that small screens don’t give you the immersive experience which you can get in a multiplex.
For instance
Linking Words
, an action movie can be enjoyed on a large screen with a well-equipped sound system like IMAX and not on a tablet.
Moreover

is that most of the latest movies get released in cinemas and it takes a few weeks to come on streaming platforms.

Use synonyms
but if you are looking for a romantic comedy to get relaxed
then
Linking Words
a small screen device is fine.
