Android tablet or laptop or phone?
 

I am trying to plan out multiple accounts and am stuck on which devices to use. I am going to try with 3 amazon accounts.

I was hoping to run 2 different amazons from 2 different mobile smartphones with 2 different sims. The third amazon from my laptop with a static ip. Is this a good idea?

I have an android tablet which could hold all three accounts. I am not sure if vmware comes as an app and not sure if this would work?. This seems like the most versatile approach.

I could purchase a new laptop specifically for amazon, put vmware on it etc and run all three accounts? ...

Any advice would be appreciated. thanks

I use android tablet, ipad and cell phone (android) and my pc for my main account on my home internet. I've been doing this for awhile with no issues. I've never had a suspended account so that most likely helps with having no issues. I have verizon and it cost $10 to add a device to my account data.

In my opinion, trying to run an AZ/EB business from a tablet or phone is an exercise in futility. There are so many features of both sites that are either not accessible from mobile devices or do not work well.

Here's a thought for you to consider which would make things a lot simpler for you. You don't even need a new laptop if you already have one. Just install VMware on your existing laptop, create 3 VM's, obtain 3 unique IP's, and run all of your accounts from one device. SOOOOO much easier.

Cell phone, for everything, just get something fast, like snapdragon 820 in it

VMWare is a much better solution, you can run it with your current laptop, no need to buy another one.

Basic Chromebook is also a good solution. You get a laptop format for a price of a tablet ($90-130 depending on the condition). The great thing about chrome is that it is well protected. It is also harder to track you. I've been using it for more than a year and no complaints so far.

Laptop/pc is obviously better, but if you don't have one to use you can definitely make mobile devices work. Like another poster said mobile devices are limited in a way so keep that in mind.

Rotate sims in your mobile phone.. use WIFI hotspot to log in on your main computer..
have 3 different user accounts.. change the settings on each so you use a different browser for each account.. keep everything a bland as possible so you dont stick out anywhere.. you should be ok.

Handhelds are more convenient.

VMware + Virtual machines is the way to go.

I'm running over 30 active seller accounts without issue from the same computer.

Each Virtual machine can handle an eBay + PayPal + Amazon stealth account.

You have 30 amazons on VMware?

Yep. They're not all logged in at the same time but they're open tabs. All I do is connect to the proper IP before login in, takes about 5 seconds.
