40/42 in. non-3D HDTV for 60k
Hi all.
Looking to buy a 40/42" full HD, non-3D TV for about 60k.
Visited a few showrooms in the vicinity and the best deal I got was a LG 42" LED-backlit LCD for 52k. Sony's products were a bit on the astronomical side compared to LG.. :-? For example, LG 47"...
Kudos to Xolo for trying something new and original (in Indian market). Unlike MMX which is ripping off Samsung quite overtly.
There haven't been many Tegra 3 devices (off the top of my head, I can name LG Optimus X4, Nexus 7 and HTC One X).
Can't speak for Intel Atom or Celeron series, but AMD C series can handle 1080p videos just fine (I have an Acer netbook with C-60). Though the CPU is still weak, AMD at least had the sense to include (relatively) decent graphics. If you use a player which supports GPU accelerated decoding (I...
My Seagate 1TB 3.5" hard drive, which I had been using as an external drive via an enclosure, seems to be dead. It simply doesn't power on, so I'm hoping the platters are fine, only the motor is the problem. Another hard drive connected to the same enclosure works fine, so that is not the...
Its not bad by itself, but it is never good to let a single entity monopolize the market. Lack of viable alternatives means the stifling of innovation. Last time it happened -- IE6 -- aka the dark ages. Also, web devs are supposed to adhere to web standards. They'd start coding specifically for...
So far, Micromax hasn't been able to match the build quality and after sales support of the established companies. Right now, Micromax (and other local brands) have been targeting the people who'd like the specs of high end phones at 12k. But Micromax can't move up the ladder that easily. They...
Considering that their target audience doesn't know or care about the differences between ICS and JB, MMX is making a killing on their phablets. Now that Canvas 3 has a 720p screen (on paper), the average guy will find it irresistible... Till the (in)famous after sales support fixes that.
One...
Actually, Ars Technica found some interesting "features" which may compromise your innocence if you're uploading pirated stuff.
Firstly, Mega claims that they do not know what content you upload. However, their servers check for redundancy (deduplication). So if you uploaded the same file as...
I believe certain phones have this feature. Initial 'handshake' is via BT/NFC. Actual file transfer is via WiFi.
The guy sits next to me. Using net for that seems... strange. Anyway, the files are quite large.
[Reminds of that particular episode from BBT where they send signals halfway...
Please suggest an app for directly transferring files between two Android phones, without using an access point/router. I've heard about WiFi Direct, but couldn't get it working as one of the phones doesn't support it. I've also tried apps like AirDroid and WiFi File Transfer, but they require...
Since you've said that you're not much of a gamer, maybe Acer Timeline 4830 T will suit you. costs 35 k, 8 hours battery life, just pop in more ram and your good to go.
If you want better graphics, there's asus k 43sa series with a powerful gpu, but flipkart lists them as permanently...
Nigeria and Indonesia are both major crude oil sources. *If* they play their cards well, top 10 is not impossible. As for India, something truly revolutionary needs to happen. No, not the Mangal Pandey kind.
LG's stock Android ROMs are buggy and unoptimized. Also, their updates are very slow (ICS for OBlack is in Q3 2012 I believe). So unless you're ready to flash custom ROMs, look elsewhere. SE Xperia Neo V seems to your best bet. Good hardware, proper support, plus upcoming official ICS update. If...
^^ :lol: They don't make 'em like that anymore...
Yes it does. It's also over your budget by 5-6k. And some think its pushing the definition of a phone a bit too far... :-D Go for it if you can, its definitely more future proof than the S II (newer + a bit faster CPU).

My netbook doesn't have a key combo to turn the display off. So I use this instead. It can do many other things which might be difficult to do otherwise: eg. speak out the text in the clipboard (using Windows TTS).
Now, this may be mentioned before but I feel I...
USB OTG makes things go downhill. One of the few phones to "properly" support it (straightaway, no hacks/mods) is the Samsung Galaxy S II. It fulfills your other hardware requirements too. But then comes the catch: it costs around 28k.
So are you willing to pay 4k more just for USB OTG? Up to...
Neither would I, if not for the glitch in Idea's network which allows you to pay for 2G packs and get HSDPA... :-D The "real" 3G packs' rates border on extortion...

HDMI output is possible. You need a MHL-to-HDMI adaptor. No...
