    Noob here, need suggestions about which console to choose.

    Just Witcher 3 -> One X / PS4 / PS4 Pro (Buy cheap, play the game and sell it) Want to game further -> But the latest and greatest that you can afford.

    Mi 11 Ultra at 70K

    The main USP of this phone is camera but the reviews have shown that it isn't a clear cut winner when compared to the Oneplus or Samsung flagships. On the other hand, Mi 11x pro seems like the real deal at 39k. Much cheaper, equally faster, slimmer and lighter.

    25-30k LG WING @30K....buy or not?

    765G is as good as a Snapdragon 845 which is a 3-4 year old flagship processor. Not good enough for a 30k phone.

    Android Poco F1's popularity; thoughts on Poco X3 Pro & Poco F3

    Poco F1 was the last outlier in terms of insane VFM factor and complete flagship feature set. It is still so relevant because we have so called 'mid-range' phones like OP Nord which comes with processors inferior to SD 845 even after 3 years and that too for 27k! F1 launched for a lesser price...

    If you could change one thing in Indian Education, what would it be?

    I'd update the really outdated syllabus which has nothing to do with today's world and have more emphasis on rote learning. I would not be surprised if they still teach 'What is a keyboard? what is a mouse?' in computer classes in high school.

    Help me choosing a Soundbar (Under 10000)

    Below 10k, most soundbars that I've heard are nothing special. You can get much better 2.1 speakers in this price range so I'd suggest you also check them out.

    25-30k Mid range phone - wait or buy now

    +1 to this. Please do not go for mid range phones from Samsung. They may be okay right now but the performance will suffer after a year.

    What Investment mistakes you made that you want others to avoid?

    ITC is still a good avenue for investment. 1. There's nothing wrong with being a tobacco company. The government do make sanctions on the business at times but do you think there would ever be a drop in demand? 2. Cigarettes are 45% of the revenue and the most profitable one. FMCG, Hotels, Agri...

    Oneplus 9 pro. Would you pay more for Hasselblad branding?

    IMO OnePlus does not have a brand value to command such prices. If I have to spend that much it will definitely be a Samsung or an Apple. Most of the phones these days are same. I'd just get the cheapest Snapdragon 888 phone whenever my Poco F1 dies.

    Help me choose a Watch?

    My vote for C. Since Bambinos are your cup of tea you can also check out Timex Marlins. https://shop.timexindia.com/men/shop-by-collection/marlin.html

    This madness and hype around M1 chip should stop

    The hype around M1 chip needs to stop.. based on anecdotal experience of a sample set of a grand total of 1 user? Companies have tried and failed in the past whenever someone has deviated from x86. This is a major achievement. Here's why it should go on: 1. X86 has been going strong for...

    Browser Review

    I have been using Chrome for years now. Recently shifted to Edge. It was a bit more responsive but I noticed my laptop battery life cut down to half. I checked the task manager and Edge consistently used 30-40% processor even with a single tab on. Switched back to Chrome and never looked back.

    motherboard repair in NCR

    Go to SS Tech in Nehru place. He is very knowledgeable. I went for a motherboard repair for my FX-8320 build a few years back and he said it wasn't fixable. What's interesting was when I tried getting second opinion from other shops, they all refused to even look into it saying that if he can't...

    News Are Xiaomi MI 11 cameras the same level as Apple iPhone 12 pro

    Xiaomi made its market not by fooling people but by providing great phones. Mi3 went head to head with a Nexus 5 for 40% the price and beat it in many things. Poco F1 was and still is a beast. Lots of Redmi phones here and there were amazing value for money. Even if you let aside the 108mp...

    Want to move out, how to find a shared apartment?

    As pointed out above, Flat and Flatmate group for Hyderabad on FB would be your best bet. You can also look at PG accommodations. If you roam around the area where you want to live, you'll definitely see a few PG boards.

    PC Peripherals Need a long lasting good quality wireless mouse

    You cannot go wrong with any of the mouse you mentioned. My personal favorite is M185. I've got 2 hand-me-downs both 4+ year old and working perfectly. The owners simply got bored of them. M331 has the silent buttons but its slightly heavier and the plastic is not soft touch and doesn't seem...

    It could be a scam but what matters is I can get unlimited streaming for so cheap with the best quality Youtube has to offer in India

    What do you think of present India's broadband scene?

    I love how cheap broadband is. We recently downgraded from ACT 200mbps to Airtel 40mbps. The monthly cost came down to Rs. 570 from Rs. 1400. Even this connection is good enough for client calls, working on VPN, streaming 4k on Youtube. This is amazing value for money IMHO. I guess what we...
