We recommend extending the useful life of a computer or cell phone as much as possible. The longer it is used, the better it is for the environment. In concrete terms, this means only switching to a more energy-efficient device when:
· The device is technically defective and cannot be repaired.
· The computer or cell phone no longer meets the functional requirements.
When purchasing a new notebook you should be guided by the following criteria:
· Options for upgrading
· Modular design
· Availability of spare parts
· Long-term support of the software
This ensures that ecological aspects are taken into account at the time of purchase and that the product can be used longer.
