    Full HD LED in Hyderabd (budget 50k). EDIT: Bought LG 42LB5610

    I did refer to the previous thread which recommended Toshiba 39L3300 but it seems that it is out of stock (doesn't ship to Hyderabad from Flipkart anyway). Toshiba website also does not list any authorized resellers in Hyderabad and only one service center (Jeeves). So, here goes - 1. Budget...

    This is interesting, Anandtech's preliminary results (browsing on WiFi only) paint a totally different picture -

    15-20K Moto G or Moto X

    I was looking forward to buying the new Moto X but looking at the reviews, Motorola managed to make the new Moto X worse than the previous one in terms of camera quality and battery life which were not good to begin with. One of their best features was the size and it has changed for the worse...

    Android Xiaomi Mi 4

    The Redmi 1S launch interview with Hugo seems to suggest that it may not launch this year. He confirmed that only the 4G version of Mi4 would launch in India and while answering a question about the Redmi 4G variant he mentioned that it's a bit early for launching the 4G variant in India and Q1...

    Looks like GSMArena has apologized for the unsubstantiated story and Xiaomi has responded on their Facebook page denying this.

    Nexus 5 for 24.6K - Flipkart

    Would have bought this a month back but now with Mi3 launched and One+ making some encouraging statements I'm willing to wait for a Snapdragon 801 based phone around this price point.

    Sugest a Good Shaver for a Dense Beard (currently Using Mach 3).

    Just wanted to chime in and mention that I purchased the Philips AT890 (was using Mach 3 earlier) and it did not work out for me. Its not easy on the skin, my neck looks sandpapered if I apply a bit of pressure (if I don't, it leaves behind a lot of hair). It takes much longer to shave since...

    Android Problems with Samsung Galaxy S2

    Yes, battery lasts a day quite easily without Samsung bloat ware. They have to depend on Samsung for display drivers since its Exynos, Samsung releases source code for the kernel (Linux) but not the Mali graphics chipset drivers used by Exynos. All custom ROM developers depend on chipset...

    Android Problems with Samsung Galaxy S2

    Welcome to Samsung's world of bloatware [emoji3] I had similar issues with my S2, even bought a new battery but that did not help. I finally decided to install a custom ROM and get rid of some of the battery draining apps. I used CyanogenMod and OmniROM, most games work on these but Samsung...

    Samsung Galaxy S3 at Rs. 18999 @ FK only for today

    Be advised that the S3 won't be getting any firmware updates (no kit kat) and the current firmware is quite slow.

    15-20K Moto G or S4 mini?

    It may not be scientific and it tests different models but have you seen this - http://bgr.com/2014/05/20/galaxy-s5-vs-moto-e-speed-tests/ I own a S2 and a S3 and one thing I've noticed is that TouchWiz really kills the phone performance. So your 2nd requirement would be tough to meet with any...

    Android S5 and Z2 announced in MWC 2014

    Disappointed with S5, nothing to be excited about except perhaps the camera. A fitness oriented phone whose heartbeat sensor only works if you don't move or speak. A fingerprint sensor that (according to previews) requires two handed operation due to the requirement for swiping your thumb...

    20-25K To buy Samsung galaxy 3 from indiatimes or not?

    You're lucky, my experience with Indiatimes has not been good. Their shipping was extremely slow, their customer care closed a complaint case without asking me if it was resolved and even after 5-6 calls to them their case manager never called me back.

    Android Samsung Galaxy Note 3 launched in India For 50k. Any Takers?

    That review does highlight the problem Samsung has been having - TouchWiz. It eats up any hardware thrown at it and still wants more, its UI could use an overhaul too. Usually, things do improve after a couple of firmware updates but then they get worse as more TouchWiz features are added /...
