    51-70k 50-70k Laptop Buying Suggestions for computer engineering and learning various AI and ML courses .

    Hey man, there's been a ton of great info shared in this thread but it can be a bit overwhelming. Any laptop can run anything. Whether it will run well is a different question. A good laptop will remain an useful tool for years. I can confidently say at around 80K there's no better all-round...

    Get any macbook air with the notch display. Doesn't need to be the latest, even older ones are great. Try to get one with 16GB ram. Pro has a better display, better speakers, and has fans for cooling. It's also heavier. You don't need the Pro.

    I'll recommend a cheapo general purpose laptop and put the rest of your budget into cloud credits (google colab, Jarvislabs, etc.). You're not going to be able to run decent ML locally on a laptop, even if you spend twice your budget.

    Review Xiaomi 15 (India unit) Quick Review

    My last Xiaomi device was 8 years back, I'm sorry I can't really give you an answer. If you're very picky about customisation of gestures, routines, etc. (anything which can't be themed), HyperOS is not for you. I've made my peace with it and adjusted to the device now. But the minute a flagship...

    Anyone used Desertcart recently?

    Soundpeats Pearlclip Pro. These are clip-on type TWS which sit on your outer ear and keep the ear canal unobstructed. Would've been 4k ish in the AliExpress days but hovers between 9k and 11k on Amazon now. No way a TWS battery can exceed IATA regulations. After waiting for 5 days I was in no...

    Anyone used Desertcart recently?

    My experience with Desertcart was disappointing. I ordered a set of TWS earphones and after 5 days of order processing they cancelled it because "battery capacity exceeds IATA regulations". For a set of earphones. To their credit, Desertcart refunded the full amount but I had to manually chat...

    Used Graphics Cards Thread

    Count me in for this as well. I've been looking for something which can do 4K60 at medium-high settings, which means 16GB VRAM minimum. Nvidia preferred but I've been waiting long enough to be satisfied with AMD as well

    Review Xiaomi 15 (India unit) Quick Review

    Xiaomi has kind of become like Samsung in that they have started to make everything under the sun, even cars. Maybe that's why their phones no longer do anything special or different (camera partnerships notwithstanding). But outside of Sony Xperia and foldables, most phones have become...

    Review Xiaomi 15 (India unit) Quick Review

    Xiaomi's infamous 5% profit margin to blame I guess. I wanted to experience flagship hardware but I don't want to pay Samsung's ridiculous markups. Thankfully, with the DNS tweak and some initial configuration (as mentioned above) the phone has become as ad-free as any other OEM. The form...

    Other Xiaomi 15* or Samsung S25*

    The icky ads can leave a bad taste in your mouth and Xiaomi should definitely tie-up with reputable ad vendors if they insist on having ads on their phones, irrespective of whether they are flagship or budget. FWIW I have never seen a porno type ad but mostly shitty video games and useless...

    My experience with the Xiaomi 15: Thread 'Xiaomi 15 (India unit) Quick Review' https://techenclave.com/threads/xiaomi-15-india-unit-quick-review.227361/ I recommend it if you don't mind the initial fiddling around to disable ads and if you don't need Good Lock-level customisation.
