Hi guys, I'm looking for suggestions for a reliable double door refrigerator upto 75k budget? My current 15 years old double door refrigerator is about to die and it's barely cools anymore.

Yo

Planning to buy tws earbuds but confused between realme,oneplus,samsung if anyone using it daily then can share experience so able to decide it

You can look for OnePlus or realme, they give more value for the price paid.
Samsung are on an expensive side.

Also a suggestion don't go for high value TWS, there battery is ultimately going to degrade and won't be useful afterwards.
I bought OnePlus Buds Pro for 8k and it didn't even lasted 1 year 😭

Looking to buy two phones for my parents. My total budget is around 35K, can stretch it to 40K, not more than that.

I was considering the Nord CE5 and the Redmi Note 14 5G. My mom mainly uses phone for mostly youtube, whatsapp, camera and calling, while my dad mostly uses whatsapp and calling. How is the call quality on these two phones?

Any other phone suggestions?

If your budget is tight, you can go for TCL or Hisense mini LED TVs. I personally bought the Hisense 55-inch U7N last year. Bought a 3-year extended warranty from Reliance ResQ, so now it has 5-year warranty.
Then bought and tried multiple Budget Dolby Atmos 5.1 or 5.1.2 soundbars- Motorola, Zebronics, and Boat. and finally settled with boAt 5.1.2 Aavante 5500DA soundbar.

Regarding this U7N, how is it for wide viewing especially for hall and atleast 6 people watching from side to side. Is it good viewable?

Hisense U7N Review (55U7N, 65U7N, 75U7N, 85U7N)

The Hisense U7N is a lower mid-range TV released in 2024 and replaces the Hisense U7K. It's part of Hisense's popular ULED lineup, sitting between the budget-fri...

The viewing angles are pretty good as well.
I mainly use it as a monitor, so for me the contrast, deep blacks for movies, and 4K at 120Hz are what matter most.

You might also try your nearest Reliance Digital stores. They might have one on display.

not available at store, but can order through online. I did checked that review and find it useful for that budget range, though now they replaced that with TCL model, checking about their service, and viewing angles. Looks good for me. T!

Check out Lenovo -Ryzen 7 V15 7730U, octa core that would run CAD CAE smooth in parallel.... last year it was at 35K in BBD

Laptops with high single core clocks and better cooling
Go for gaming series laptops for best performance.

In that price range you can go for TCL or Hisense miniLed. Both works.

 

[arthurmorgan]

Which mini-LED or QLED models are coming under 50K bugdet ? any good suggestions

 

[Riya]

@HumorSimpson @Riya your feedback please

depends on the budget too....
if he's going to use heavy graphical softwares then he would definitely need H series processor with dedicated gaphic card
and if needs to do hardcore coding too then a good processor atleast i7 of the latest generation

Budget is around 80k, looking for deals in this sale.

U - series are low power and have little better battery .
H - high performance, hardly 1 hr of battery backup.

Ideally one must choose a H series i5 or i7 with 32GB RAM , external graphics like nvidia gpu for high end CAD running. But someone already said that even U was fine for them.

Not really...
1 hr backup is too less...
Now a days with modern chip architecture, battery backup have improved quite a lot...
My 8 year old lenovo laptop gives more than 1 hr backup 🤪
