Whois & Analysis for promate.net

Consumer electronics or home electronics are electronic or digital equipment intended for everyday use, typically in private homes.

Consumer electronics include devices used for entertainment (flatscreen TVs, DVD players, DVD movies, iPods, video games, remote control cars, etc), communications (telephones, cell phones, e-mail-capable laptops, etc), and home-office activities (e.g., desktop computers, printers, paper shredders, etc).

In British English, they are often called brown goods by producers and sellers, to distinguish them from "white goods" such as washing machines and refrigerators.

In the 2010s, this distinction is not always present in large big box consumer electronics stores, such as Best Buy, which sell both entertainment, communications, and home office devices and kitchen appliances such as refrigerators.

Consumer electronics stores differ from professional audio stores in that the former sells consumer-grade electronics for private use, whereas the latter sells professional-grade electronics designed for use by audio engineers and audio technicians.

A tablet computer, commonly shortened to tablet, is a thin, flat mobile computer with a touch screen display, which is usually in color, processing circuitry, and a rechargeable battery in a single device.

The touchscreen display uses the recognition of finger or stylus gestures to replace the mouse, trackpad and keyboard used in laptops.

Gadgets are sometimes referred to as gizmos.
