    Budget 21-30k Refurbished ThinkPad X390 (or T480)

    I'm looking to buy a refurbished ThinkPad X390, preferably with 16GB of RAM and an i5. What's the best place to get such a laptop? A T480s or something similar would fine as well. Basically need a lightweight ThinkPad that I know will last for 2-3 years at least. Any other suggestions (new...

    Experiences with Sarvam Shop?

    They have been recommended to me in the past, even on this site once, but I just want to do a final check before I buy a MiniGT model, since they seem to have price parity with other markets on this particular brand. (Even KarznDolls have MiniGTs at about the same price, have MiniGT got BIS...

    Laptops To Clean a ThinkPad

    I'd like to fully clean up my E14 Gen 5 and take better care of the touchpoints to prevent oil wear. How do I clean grime off the screen and keys, and what can I use to minimise the wear from skin oils on the keys and wrist rest areas? Also, if there's any way to de-fingerprint the top and...

    Best ISP for Safilguda/Malkajgiri, Hyderabad

    (This is more specifically directed towards Hyd folks but not only for them) I've been using Airtel in Visakhapatnam without any major technical issues (other than the occasional payments issues), so I'm more interested in taking that. However the family that lives below us use Hathway, and he...

    Laptops My First ThinkPad! - ThinkPad E14 Gen 5 (AMD)

    After many years of dealing with ratty laptops I finally bought myself a new one, and it's this ThinkPad E14. I think I got a pretty good price for it (51K, after all the deals and discounts), and it's generally such a nice laptop to use, with a just few minor niggles. (Also putting this here...

    Budget 41-50k Heavy Daily/Office-Type Use 14in Laptop With Some Light Gaming

    I've narrowed down to a custom ThinkPad E14 Gen 5 (specs will be posted below) for the size and features (mainly the size, it's really hard to get good compact laptops here) but are there any other laptops I should take a look at before finalizing? Any good deals running on other sites? I don't...

    CPU/Mobo 2nd PC just died - Need advice

    It was an ex-office PC and it already had one faulty RAM slot, and now I think the other one also failed. The CPU (Intel i3-6098P) itself is still good, but I gave up trying to find good cheap LGA1151 motherboards four years ago. My sister has been using it as an ordinary everyday PC and it was...

    Graphic Cards Is Inno3D reliable? Who handles the service and RMA, and are they trustworthy?

    I'm looking to grab that 3060 Ti steal deal on Flipkart, but I'm not sure if the GPUs themselves and aftersales are reliable. I've had two Zotac cards and never had any issues with them, and 5 years of warranty is quite blissful, so I want to know if I'll be losing much (if anything) by going...

    Other Pixel 4a - eSIM only, dead screen. What can I do with it/get for it? (NOT A LISTING)

    (Just to be clear, this is not a listing. I have many questions, and I just want to know if I can salvage the phone/situation, if possible). Jan 2021 bought Pixel 4a. The screen fell victim to OLED oxidization (a quite sad and ugly way to see such a loved phone go), and SIM card slot doesn't...

    Seller asking 17K for a used Logitech G29

    An arcade near me went out of business and the owner quoted 17K for a Logitech G29 wheel-and-pedals setup. It was lightly used for the last 5 months, so it has 8 months of warranty left. Is that a fair price or should I try and ask for less?

    Official Bburago stores/sites

    I'm looking to buy two F1 models from Bburago, and there seem to be a number of sites that sell Bburago models, but who are legit, and who can be trusted, and who prices them fairly? Alternatively, is there any other way I can get a diecast model of the "1000th GP Edition" Mugello GP SF1000...

    CeX India

    I'm looking to buy an Xperia XA1 (from CeX India. It's for my mom, so just basic smartphone stuff, and it'll be a nice cheap (Rs. 4,000) drop-in replacement for her R1 Plus. What I want to know is if the site/chain is legit with their 24-Month Warranty, and if the phone itself is good for it's...

    PC Peripherals Dell MS 116 mouse scrolling problem

    I've been using this mouse for five years now, and recently the scrolling has become extremely sticky and broken, especially scrolling down. It's impossible to scroll the page down more than a few "sections" because the input keeps jumping back (in the video below I'm only scrolling down, not...

    Android Battery backup of new S20 FE 5G

    This is the battery graph over the course of one average day of my usage (for clarification, this is the Snapdragon 865 version. I never knew that they eventually released this version in India). The phone was always in 60Hz mode, a mix of WiFi and mobile data, GPS on, no battery saver mode, and...

    Android Just bought an S20 FE, have a few questions

    Are there any good transparent backed bumper cases available for this model? I would like to protect the phone, but I also want to skin it something cool like. Also, is it safe to pull off the sticker on the back? Can Samsung really refuse to honour the warranty if I do?

    Android I wish Nokia still made phones like this

    I know the title could be a bit self-serving, but I just had to show this here: This is my three-year-old Nokia 6.1 that fell off a bike (and barrel rolled a few times for good measure!), the screen came loose, and then got ran over by another bike, but it's still 99% usable, just absolutely...

    Camera Getting started with CCTV systems

    I need to put a two-camera system in a fairly remote location without any internet access. Motion-activation would be a nice bonus too. But I have no idea how to get into look at these. I don't even know what I don't know. How do I get started? What companies are the best and cheapest? What are...
