    The Complete Smartphone Buyer's Guide

    Hi, I'm currently using a Lenovo Vibe K4 Note which I bought in 2016. I'm now in urgent need of an upgrade. I've narrowed down my choices in sub-20K budget to either Realme 6 Pro or Poco X3 as per GSMArena. Am open to other mobile phones suggestions too. Kindly suggest.

    Yup, full purchase value along with cost of 1 year remaining extended warranty. They gave me a credit note which I used to purchase another laptop Dell Inspiron 3542 for a family friend (since I already had one more laptop in hand) & took cash from him against the same.

    Thanks for the reminder. I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for understanding. I appreciate it. Hate to be blunt but I guess one must not have had the need arisen to invoke warranty!! That's why the humor.. One doesn't understand the importance of warranty till the need to invoke it arises.. On my...

    Official Windows 10 Thread: Installation and Issues (check first post)

    Ok, so I just did a Windows Update using Windows 10 Update Assistant tool since Windows Update was not working. Updated the system from version 1809 to 1909. Took around 2 -3 hours. Immediately noticed performance increase in regular use. The Update also rectified the Windows Update issue. Now...

    Official Windows 10 Thread: Installation and Issues (check first post)

    I already did a DELL PSA diagnostic. No errors there. My guess is, due to clutter of preinstalled Dell softwares (which I removed most of), frequent Window Updates (including feature updates), leftover files/folders/regitry entries from uninstalls, etc., the system has become a little sluggish...

    Thanks for your reply. I am aware that SSD is the need of the hour. But the issue right now with me is that my laptop is still under extended warranty & till it expires, I fear removing / replacing the OEM components. Moreover, since it's a family laptop, many family members have their data...

    Confusion regarding upgrading with compatible DDR4-2400 RAM in laptop

    Okay, so I've bumped this thread after close to 3 years. I finally bought an 8GB Crucial (a Micron brand) DDR4-2400 RAM module online from Amazon India. The preinstalled Micron RAM & new Crucial RAM modules have the exact latency values, speed, etc. I installed the new RAM module myself (was...

    New Dell 5567 Laptop - Pink screen, slow performance

    I agree. 2 minutes to a fully loaded desktop in Windows 10 is normal. Mine also takes this much time. Remove all bloatwares, Mcafee. Run CCleaner. It will help. I'm not sure but if u need a faster boot, then u need a SSD instead of HDD.

    New Dell 5567 Laptop - Pink screen, slow performance

    I agree with you. Truecolor app that comes preinstalled with the system is the culprit for pink hue. But apparently, I'm unable to uninstall it. It says something about a missing MSI file. So, right now, I've disabled it.

    New Dell 5567 Laptop - Pink screen, slow performance

    I bought DELL for the sole reason of their good after sales support & service. They give onsite service and simply replace the defective parts instead of repairing them. Now, regarding the pink hue problem, it seems it's not an isolated issue. I initially thought it was limited to online stock...

    New Dell 5567 Laptop - Pink screen, slow performance

    Thanks for the suggestions. It is definitely a Intel GPU driver problem. During installation of latest Intel GPU drivers supplied by DELL, the screen display turned to normal without any pink saturation/hue/contrast. But upon restart, it was back to square one i.e. screen with pink...
