My First Galaxy watch, loving it

I finally bought this watch, and it's totally worth it. The watch arrived yesterday night, so I charged it and wore it for sleep tracking and to find a good watch face. Tracking is so far good. Battery drain is as expected, but I'll give it some leeway as I updated the watch, and the setup process, along with multiple tracking sessions, consumed battery.

Calling is decent, though I can hear interference, and I'm not sure why. Perhaps it's the weather (heavy rain and mostly cloudy). I used it with a headset as the watch speaker is only decent.

Please recommend a watch face for workout sessions, as there aren't many options, and the images don't do them justice in the Wear app. I also thought of buying a stainless steel strap from Amazon.

I will post a detailed review in about a week with proper testing if anyone needs it.

EDIT: The gesture are hit and miss for me, is there anything i might be doing wrong??

Kefine Klean review

So they finally arrived, and I used them a lot in a short period to know why they are so hyped. I watched movies, listened to music, and scrolled through random content.

I want you to know that I have been using JLabs LUX ANC for more than a year, I think, and if I compare, the difference is very subtle to notice.

I know IEMs need setup. I have been using the Poweramp music player with no EQ. I have been confused about whether I should use the EQ or if it is just fine. Dolby Atmos is turned off, and I've been using the hi-res settings.

I might have made a mistake while using them, or maybe missed a step to get their full potential, so please help or guide me. I am new to this IEM world overall.

Thank you.

Here is my First controller

I wanted to buy a controller since I was a child, wanting to feel how it feels to play without a keyboard. I finally bought it with adult money, and I am very satisfied with the purchase.

This has everything I wanted gyro, vibration motors, RGB (not a fan, but looks good), feels nice while holding.

The only problem I found was the workaround for the gyro. If anyone knows a better solution for enabling and calibrating it, please let me know. And any questions you might have

Edit: Product name: Gamesir super nova

So, My 1-month experience with Legion pro 7i and Ultimate support

So I think this is a good time to finally give my review on the Legion pro 7i 5080, after using it for more than a month. The order arrived earlier than expected, and at first glance, it is huge, despite knowing it has a 16" display, I was still surprised. Running some benchmark tests gave results similar to what others reported online, and without the RGB lighting turned on, it looks very stealthy and sleek.

I bought it during the Back to School sale, getting a solid discount alongside a free bag and mouse. However, at first, I was very nervous and worried about my purchase due to reports of dead GPUs becoming more prominent. I even questioned if I should have bought a MacBook instead, but I reminded myself and other suggested that these are rare 1–5% cases. Because this was my first major purchase as a college student, I was extra anxious, but it has been working completely fine.

The only real issue I encountered was some visible screen artifacts. I contacted support, and they updated the drivers and BIOS, which mostly resolved it. However, I still occasionally notice a quick white/pink bar flicker on the bottom third of the display that disappears in a second, which makes me a bit concerned about how to report it properly.

Otherwise, this laptop is an absolute beast that easily handles any game I dreamed of playing, I completed RDR2, currently playing forza horizon 6, and Cyberpunk all on max graphics. In the beginning, I used performance mode, but it caused the laptop to heat up quickly; switching to Balanced mode only dropped the FPS by 12–20, while keeping temperatures low for long gaming sessions without an AC in a 31C room. I do not use a cooling pad, just elevate the back, and experience zero thermal throttling during 5-6 hour sessions. Dust does accumulate on the fans due to the lack of filters, but using Hybrid mode for daily tasks and switching to dGPU mode for heavier games like Cyberpunk works fine.

Ultimately, I am proud of my purchase and very happy with how it performs. If you guys have any questions feel free to comment.

What are these black-red boxes ??

I was just wanted to check something on the display, every video i play on YT when i searched HDR video. first thing i notice is the black-red boxes on every video that slowly fades away. This issue is with every video with deep blacks.

The fix i think, is turning off the HDR and use the default color profile, by doing that i don't see the issue (though there is no tag of HDR on the video as it was before). If i turn On the HDR i have to create a profile (which i created by following the steps) but again i don't get HDR though this method.

BlueDart sucks!! Why don't they switch

I ordered the Legion Pro 7i on the 8th of June. I got the Backpack and Mouse as part of an offer, which was supposed to be delivered on the 12th of June (as mentioned by Bluedart). Lenovo shipped both items on the 9th to Bluedart, but they kept them in the warehouse and shared no notification about it. I mailed them a few times and only got generated replies. Today, while checking the Bluedart page, I saw that the items have already been Returned to Origin.
I want to know — as my Legion is still in Customs — what will happen to all these packages. Do I get it on the same date under one package, or will the Laptop also be Returned to Origin? I've mailed Lenovo (as of Sunday they are off duty).

I think i made a mistake with quotation

First of all i made the quotation without any info regarding the expiry date.
I wanted to buy a Legion pro 7i 5080 variant, on 8June. I found a good coupon (18,000 INR) and as i am a clg student i got 17,500 INR, so i got the deal for 3,26,500 INR. which was in my budget, but today i saw the quotation expiry date is 5 June.
Ok, then check the model price and added it cart, for checking the price and all, firstly there is price hike of 4,000 INR (which is fine), then i tried applying the coupon (no problem here), but my student ID offer is reduced to 6,900 INR (this is concern).
So, is it because of the quotation i have and once it expired i will get the full student off or it will stay as it is,

I tried contacting support but they are gonna reach me tomorrow.
Note: I don't have the full amount now, i will get it on 8 June and EMI is only on Indian HDFC card (which i dont have).
you can ask if i missed something, and plz help with your experience

I am very confused after reading mixed comments and reading many post about slice. some of them are saying that they block your account and you can't withdraw and the customer service is trash also. But some defending and saying it fast and just need some verification.
I have a amount like more than 3L, and want to store it somewhere to keep it safe just that if i don't get any return from it i don't, i wanna buy something from this amt and invest the rest as long term, but not now 3-4 month later.
Are there any other option i can opt for, like other safer options.
You can ask question if you wanna give some specific advice.

An idea to Stop India's traffic noise pollution

I have been traveling a lot lately by road and frequently encounter people who press the horn as if it’s nothing; they feel no hesitation while doing so. After giving some thought to this matter, I have an idea: we could apply a limit on how many times a driver can blow the horn or for what total duration. Once the limit is reached, the owner would have to take the vehicle to a dealer to get it reset and pay a required fee. If the owner uses a third-party method to fix it, their insurance would either be revoked or they would have to pay a hefty sum of money to restore the vehicle's legal status. I know there are many flaws in this plan, but you could suggest some amendments and make it a real-world solution
