    News MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Pro 16 with new processors released

    Sure, you will find examples like this and I can't doubt other people's experiences. You will just have to make up your own mind man. From what i've heard, you may be better suited to the MBA as you are already swaying in that direction. At the end of the day, both are great laptops and you...

    News MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Pro 16 with new processors released

    Hmm, no idea about them but I usually trust objective reviews like Notebookcheck, which have the M2 Air almost the same as the M1 Pro on H.264 videos and Wifi web surfing. Heavier usage will obviously drain the Pro much quicker. You can always use the low power mode on the laptop. refresh rate...

    News MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Pro 16 with new processors released

    Not sure where this is coming from. I've briefly tested the battery with a friends' M1 Air and it was very similar in light uses. Even the reviews generally echo this statement, going by Dave2D's M2 Air review : And regarding the blooming : well yeah there will obviously be blooming but its...

    News MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Pro 16 with new processors released

    Weird that you didn't see a difference in the displays. The refresh rate itself makes it much smoother to use. Plus at night, watching movies give you a great HDR experience but most of all, the extra 500 nits (by installing 3rd part apps like Vivid) makes the laptop usable in direct sunlight -...

    News MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Pro 16 with new processors released

    The battery life is fine. Might not be MBP 13" levels but I've been averaging 10 hours on a full charge with light usage, much better than my old 13" MBP 2015 (it used to get 7-8 hours as far as i can remember) I couldn't live with 8GB of RAM anymore, 16GB is minimum and upgrading the M2 Air...

    WTB Fiio E07K or E10K or any similar DAC + AMP Combo

    My E07k died recently and I am looking for a similarly powered and priced DAC+AMP combo to replace it as I use it with my DT770 Pro 80 Ohm headphones. Looking forward to any offers. Note - I am based out of Gurgaon and can visit NCR buyers in person

    No power in Logitech Z625 Woofers and Speakers

    Logitech India does not repair speakers sadly, so these wont be of much use. Learned that the hard way when my Z623's died earlier this year Sadly that practice ended with the Z5500. The Z623 and onwards don't have a user accessible fuse

    Any clue what happened to F&D and Creative in India?

    Could be. Also the pandemic has really screwed with their production and they're focussing their core markets like the US more than India.

    Car & Bike Which car shall we look ?

    So ideally you should be looking at Petrol powered cars. Preferably a Toyota or a Honda as they usually ave good resale value. An automatic would also help if you primary want convenience and comfort. 20L on road is a good budget. the Honda City and Hyundai Creta are good options in this...

    News MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Pro 16 with new processors released

    Could be, but i've never had judder issues while watching movies on my older 60Hz LCD TV's. I hated watching movies on my LG C9 so much that i sold it off within 5 months to a friend. The judder was god awful even on a 120 Hz panel. The newer C1 is much better in that regards (same friend got...

    News MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Pro 16 with new processors released

    Sure. That also happens on a 120Hz OLED. Not every display is perfect. For someone like me, I honestly would not care about the slow pixel refresh times as my use cases do not involve playing games. While watching 24p movies, its actually an advantage hilariously as it makes the movie appear...

    Logitech z623 subwoofer stopped working

    Damn, even my Z623 died all of sudden in the past 2 weeks. Simply refuses to even turn on. Will try and haul it to nehru place if I get them time. Don't trust any shops in Gurgaon :( That fact that Logitech doesn't even have a repair centre in India is mind blowing. Going to actively avoid its...
