An internet search would be much more efficient There are many consume magazines available online that compile lots of data to compare the advantages and disadvantages of one product versus another.
Student B
Paul：The last time l bought a computer, I just watched a few videos online to make a decision, and now I regret that. My friends could have advised me better because they now my preferences and the kind of features that I am interested in. Consumers should get advice from the people around them to find the most suitable products.
