    Budget ~2K Wireless/Bluetooth Sturdy Earphones

    I had a pair of Aukey B40 which I got from the US which lasted me a couple of years. I am not much of an audiophile, and am looking for something which lasts at least a couple of years with normal usage, and at the lowest price. I stay in Mussoorie so warranty and returns will be a pain in the...

    When you Joined TechEnclave or DigitForum ....

    I joined it 2008 I think. We had an internal forum in my college, and Techenclave seemed like a logical alternative. My friend and room mate at that time suggested it to me. Since then, I have been a lurker here.

    What is better exercise, cycling or walking?

    Whatever you do, start at a comfortable intensity, and then slowly increase it. If you keep it at the same level, then your body gets used to it, and you will not become fitter. A simple regimen to start with is a run-walk-run regimen. Walk for 30s (at an easy pace) and run/brisk walk for 30s...

    USB Hub for home - Mac Mini

    Finally ordered the Elevn 4-port USB 2.0 hub. Was debating with the 3.0 version of the same brand. But I realised I need it for the wired mouse/KB, so getting a 3.0 didn't make sense. https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B08R8WPDXC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Will let you know...

    USB Hub for home - Mac Mini

    I need a USB hub to manage inputs to the Mac Mini. A thunderbolt/USB-C could also work. I looked at Amazon,but can see no good brands that I can identify. Ideally 4-5 ports, with good port accessibility, connect KB and mouse, and a HDD. I had seen a Portronics one at a friend's place, but that...

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

    I have had bad luck with phones recently. Lost the One Plus 6 in the sea in Goa, and now had the LG G8X snatched. So, I am in the market again for a new phone. I travel a lot, so a smaller, lighter phone would be handy. I had a good experience with G8X, apart from its fingerprint sensor (hit...

    I have Cosmic Byte Neon in my cart on Flipkart! I have Cosmic Byte Neon in my cart on Flipkart incidentally! Like the reviews for that keyboard. However, the price is 2300+, which is a little steep for the KB. I am getting a 10% discount in ICICI bank, but I am not sure if that is enough.
