    Budget 30-40k Good budget android phones for long-term use

    Motorola haven't had a good reputation with OS upgrades, but on the positive side their skin is very close to stock Android, and ad-free as you've noted.

    Budget 25-30k Phone for Day to Day use

    My inputs are from using Realme UI v2.0, while the latest is v4.0 Realme had bloatware, but not ads.

    Budget 90k+ Planning to buy end of the month. Any advice around these parts is appreciated.

    Has Intel has typically not been shy to drop/change their CPU connectors across generations, while AMD has, in the recent past, kept the same CPU connectors across generations. I'm curious to know if Intel has made any official commitment to LGA1700 for future CPUs. Please share links if you...

    Extremely annoying Issue! (Numpad 7)

    Sounds like some key on the laptop has become stuck or having loose contact. Take it to your local repair-shop and check it. Meanwhile, as you are having an external keyboard, disable the internal keyboard using Windows Device Manager, and work exclusively on the external keyboard.

    Storage Solutions Suggest new internal HDD for PC.

    Do you already have a SSD in your system ? If not, and assuming you don't have plans to store large amounts of data/media on the disk, you should get a SSD instead of HDD. It will significantly improve the performance of the entire system, making everything feel snappier.

    PC Peripherals Is this a good keyboard? (Cosmic Byte CB-GK-25)

    Agree with slippery. Save up for a hot-swap keyboard, unless you have sufficient electronics skills to de-solder and solder switches. Typically, low-end Chinese keyboards tend to have 3 or 4 keys go bad within 3 - 4 months of usage (either not registering pressing, or registering too many...

    FS: Video Card Asus ROG Strix RTX 2070 Super Advanced 8GB & Zotac RTX 2060 6GB

    @mods, @puns When I received the package, it did not have any visible dents or signs of damage. In fact, I think the packaging was very decent. But, when I mounted it in mobo, the left fan is hanging out, and not spinning. Mods, for me, this is DOA, which OP said he would cover.

    CPU/Mobo DIY Build No display after first start

    Usually, a UPS will have built-in voltage regulator. If such case, a spike-guard is not necessary. Check your UPS manual whether it mention voltage/current protections. If so, you can use it without a spike guard. FWIW, I am using a desktop since years, directly connected to APC UPS, without any...

    Laptops Help me fix this laptop issue.

    The issue seems to be some stuck key/contact on the keyboard. It does not seem to be problem with touchpad, since the mouse pointer is not moving around by itself. As cri_sss has suggested, disable the internal keyboard in Windows Device manager, and then check in notepad or any app that laptop...

    Budget 30-40k Good budget android phones for long-term use

    I'm not denying the excellent support that Samsung is providing for their phones, but they are making 'guarantees' only for the high-range mobiles. Their low and mid-range phones are not guaranteed software upgrade support, but may get upgrades if feasible. Please see below post where they are...

    Budget 30-40k Good budget android phones for long-term use

    I think this 'guarantee' is only for the flagship 'S' series and the 'A' series. The mid-range 'M' series etc. do not have this assurance.

    Laptops Dell Inspiron 7559 upgrade laptop or buy new?

    Looking at the attached report, your system is having 2 slots, and the first slot is having DDR3 8 GB. So you would need another laptop sized (SODIMM) DDR3 RAM of 8 GB. I'm unable to make out the RAM speed. Best would to take your laptop to a local computer shop to buy the RAM; they should be...

    Laptops Dell Inspiron 7559 upgrade laptop or buy new?

    Agree with what nRiTeCh has recommended. The CPU is probably not a bottleneck for these simple tasks. It appears the system has 8GB RAM. The best upgrade right now would be add more RAM. Also, if it is currently running on HDD, put in a SDD.

    User Review My first 3D printer - Creality Ender-3

    Where do you keep the printer? If in the house, isn't it a bit polluting (air & noise) ? https://all3dp.com/3d-printing-air-quality-study-reveals-health-risks/ https://fit.thequint.com/health-news/3d-printers-air-pollution Just like Neo-N, I too occasionally get enthused about the idea of...
