How many devices do you use during a typical workday?
It seems like there’s a gadget for everything nowadays, doesn’t it?
The average office worker uses about three devices each day to get their job done. Think laptops, tablets, headphones… and sometimes even more than one phone.
Technology helps teams stay connected and work more efficiently – but there’s a flip side: Managing multiple devices can become overwhelming.
What happens when we add another device to our daily work routine? There’s another battery to charge. One more thing to carry. Yet another item to keep track of.
In fact, all this tech adds up to about 4.1 kg of extra weight. That’s like lugging an air fryer to work every day!
There’s also the mental load to consider. Many professionals feel weighed down by the constant notifications across their devices. It’s not uncommon to receive dozens of alerts daily, and this constant stream of notifications can be incredibly distracting.
One solution to gadget overload is to explore multifunctional devices, like foldable phones or hybrid laptops. These devices can often replace two or three separate gadgets, simplifying your tech setup.
Another smart move is upgrading to a more efficient system, like Windows 11.
Windows 11 makes it easier to switch between tasks, which can reduce the need for extra devices. Its seamless and integrated experience might mean your team no longer needs so many gadgets to stay productive.
