GIVES US PRIVACY
This is one of the most important advantages of chatting over phone call that it gives us privacy as in order to chat, phone number isn't required or shared with the other person whereas if we make a phone call to someone, our contact number is required. Several applications and sites (like Quikr, Facebook, BBM, etc) have been introduced so that the privacy of people doesn't get diluted.
LESS TIME CONSUMING
Sometimes we don't have enough time or balance to make a call as we might be occupied with some other work or our phone's battery is very low or there're hundred of reasons, in that situation we prefer chatting over phone call as it is easy to multitask when one task is easier than the other. We can chat as well as do our work without even worrying about the balance or network or clarity of voice or other disturbances. There’s no rush in conveying the message. The texts are enough to inform the other person.
Also at times people don’t answer our calls if their mobile’s on silent mode or flight mode, or they’re driving or in an urgent meeting or at work or for any other reason. In that case, chatting proves to be very helpful as we can just drop a message to the other person and he/she can read it later as well. Our work is to inform the other person and the moment our message is sent, our work is done and we’re relieved of the burden.
Plus, if we need to inform dozen of people then making calls to each and every person and then informing them, explaining them the whole damn thing, answering their queries is time consuming and mind- consuming. It simply pisses us off. In that case, chatting is way better than calling or conference calling because we get to send message to the entire group or just copy and paste or forward the same message to the others. We get to save our energy and peacefully live our life.
NO MISUNDERSTANDING OR DIFFICULTY IN CONVEYING MESSAGES
Via phone calls, messages are not easily conveyed leading to misunderstandings.
The main drawback in conversing via phone call is that it is difficult for people to convey the message if there's any disturbance on any side, specially if the network's poor or if we're in a party where there's very loud music and we're unable understand what the other person is trying to say. At times, the voice isn't audible or someone is speaking from our end or there're network issues, etc. In these situations, chatting is the better option.
That is the only reason why applications come with variety of emoticons and features like unlimited texts so that feeling and tones are easily conveyed without much trouble. And not only are our messages conveyed easily, we're also able to share pictures and ask our friends for suggestions at the same time. Chatting is so much better than phone call if you need to ask your friend about some outfit or purchase as we needn't give a long description which saves a lot of time and energy.
