17.  DISADVANTAGES
Having a big bright screen and needing massive
computing power to run this means a very low
battery life
In direct sunlight it is much less efficient and most
of the time very difficult to read the screen
If a touchscreen device are to crash the whole
screen would be unresponsive, and because of the
lack of buttons recovering it would be very
difficult.
 Fingerprints of the user obscure the screen if not
handled carefully.Touchscreen

limitations but it’s very user friendly, fast, accurate, easy
for the novices & fun to operate. It has been widely
accepted. And now by just modifying a little it can replace
the mouse and key board completely in near future
