    Oppo asking for box for TWS warranty

    Usually TWS can't be repaired, they just ask for box to make sure you didn't steal it or some other reason, although a thief might not be able to get invoice in such cases. As I know they go as E-waste and there is no refurbishing of TWS only maybe unboxed items being sold.

    Which of these 1 ton Carrier A/Cs is better?

    As I see you have listed only 1 AC here, carrier is a decent refrigeration brand, I would like to suggest other brands like Hitachi or llyod or Daikin if you can find them at similar costs too. Just make sure to look for PCB warranty and other warranties before purchasing. Extended warranty is...

    Hitachi vs Daikin

    I have been on the hunt for a new AC too, every company now looks to be good with the new ISEER ratings. Just make sure to buy the current year model that way it will have the latest ratings. Lloyd served me well for 10 years with multiple shifts in between and still works fine, currently...

    20-25K A phone that can do two things well

    Nothing phone 1 with the recent new updates and android 13 is a worthy contender, very smooth UI, decent cameras and a good design (preference). BBK companies are no more worth it anymore, bad software, no optimisation, late or no updates, overall bad idea.

    20-25K Need a reliable phone under 25K for my brother

    After several updates Nothing Phone 1 seems to be a very great value, if you like the design, I think it is one of the best devices under 30k. QC issues have also been sorted out. When spending this much, it is not worth getting a BBK company device anymore, everything is now ColorOS and no...

    51-70k Need advice for Gaming Build

    Just one advice, choose 5600x at the same price for slightly higher clock speed and I think it is more tunable thus giving you higher or lower wattage as you need. Apart from this if you can spend 70k as I can see, try building a AM5 build with the new 7600x. That will be higher performance...

    0-20k Which monitor to choose from these for Gaming

    From these G24f 2 is the better option, it is the next version of G24F, better color gamut range than older version. Samsung is not recommended, Benq is good but no height adjustable stand, also isn't it much more expensive than others on this list(?) Another option you can look at MSI g241 or...

    25-30k Need a new phone for dad

    All above mentioned options are good and will work well for a phone for parents. I would like to add 1 more to your list of consideration and that will be the nothing phone 1. After the latest updates there are no bugs and the phone is now one of the smoothest phone in it's price range. The...

    20-25K Looking for good camera phone with storage for wife

    Pixel 6a as suggested above, but will only recommend that for taking pictures, 60hz screen really hurts in 2023. My suggestion will be to get the Nothing phone 1 at a discounted price during sales. It is one of the smoothest phones right now will very good software implementation, cameras are...

    PC Software for finding duplicate files

    You can use a app called "everything". It is not a dedicated duplicate finding app, but it searches entire computer for files with same name and displays them with their locations. Other than this there are dedicated duplicate finders already mentioned above.

    Hi all! I looked at some reviews and have currently zeroed down to 2 options 1. Realme buds air 3 - 3999 2. oppo air 2 pro - 3499 Both have pretty similar specs and features, wanted to know which one is overall better and in which departments based on daily use. Decent ANC is required along with...

    0-20k Second hand monitor buying advice

    Check for working of the monitor and if all ports work correctly, check for scratches or lines on screen and if there are any dead pixels. For the shipping, it is better to ship in the original packing of the product, that ensures proper fitment so nothing gets banged up during shipping.

    0-10K Looking for a mobile under 5k

    At this budget I suggest you get a second hand or pre-owned one. A phone that might cost 10k new maybe available for 5k after say 1-2 years of use. Try to get something like a note 5 pro and above. A reliable site to get 2nd hand devices is cashify.

    40K+ Is Note 20 Ultra Still good

    Then maybe look for a refurbished or pre-owned s22 ultra only, 20 series is very old to spend almost 60k on.

    40K+ Is Note 20 Ultra Still good

    For that price, no. It's not a very good deal considering it's more than 2 years now. Not only the processor is now old, you won't get the latest updates after some time and the battery might be low capacity now since it is sitting idle in a warehouse from long. For 57k you have tons of new...

    25-30k Nothing phone or some other

    For 25k to 26k (with bank offers) Nothing Phone 1 is a banger of a device, specs are on par with other brands but the software is very refined now and the phone looks better than others in this price range IMO. People comparing it with pixel 6a, it's better in every aspect but maybe a bit behind...

    Other Samsung S9 with water damage, need to repair it, issue mentioned below

    My Samsung s9 got water damaged (rain water not salt water) and I got it checked from a well reputed mobile repair guy in my city. He checked it completely and came up with the conclusion that the "charge IC" or charging IC was shorted and needed replacing (essentially a motherboard level...

    PC Peripherals Experience with AcroRMA

    I had a viper mini whose side buttons started wobbling after few months of use, it got replaced easily, no questions asked. As for your case you say that you have already opened the mouse, it's really a tossup. Try going through the RMA process and see if it's ok. Best of luck.
