Discussion Space for Indian PMs

I couldn’t find something like this here. If y’all have an existing platform, please share.

What this is:
- A safe discussion space for PMs to discuss their work, growth, and rant about stakeholders being oblique, managers being toxic, etc.
- Discuss new things in tech, AI, startups etc.
- Ask work related questions they’d be uncomfortable asking their colleagues or friends.

What this is not:
- A community where people request for referrals or ask for openings; asking for advice is okay.

In times of work-related insecurities and instabilities, I feel this would be a good idea for everyone to come together and discuss what’s going to impact us the most. Invite-only platform and work credentials are mandatory for receiving an invite. Will make a discord or WA chat.

Edit: DM me for the invite!

Poor Quality Capes India Skin

I’m disappointed with the quality of the MacBook Air Transparent Skin I received today from Capes India. I followed their application guide exactly, but the skin had poor cutting, excess material on the edges, and started peeling and cracking while being removed from the backing paper.

IPhone 17 Worn Down at Edge

I have a 9 months old IPhone 17 black which appears to be rubbed off at area surrounding the action button. It has markings of my cover’s fabric. I’m using a normal silicon cover that is lined inside with cotton fabric. I cleaned out the cover and any grit found once in two weeks. Why would this happen? Am I doing something wrong? Can this come off?

To the People who Purchased MBA M5 Base Model on Prime Day

Already had major FOMO of not getting a mac at old price with discounts in April/May. When I saw that they were selling MBA M5 at old price on Prime Day sale, I rushed to purchase it and pulled the trigger as it was going out of stock simultaneously. I didn’t get any further discount and got it at 1.2 flat.

Now I’m seeing that people got it at prices as low as 1L on Prime Day with CC discounts. Beating up myself for not checking this. Did anyone else get CC discounts? If yes, with what CC? Thinking that I didn’t get a good deal at all lmfao

Macbook Air Must-Have Accessories

Recently bought a Macbook Air 13” and looking to buy some must-have accessories such as sleeves, etc. Also need an opinion on things like screen guards and top and bottom skins. Would appreciate if I can get some India specific product recos. Looked into Capes India and found their products decent.

Thanks!

Uneven Magsafe Charger

Hi, I got a new Macbook Air M5 today, and the given Magsafe connector seems to be unevenly connected to the port (see the top part of the given photo). Flipping it 180 degrees, it seems the unevenness follows the cable connector.

Ik I might be overreacting to this but still - What should I do? The machine seems fine, the issue seems to be with charger. Is this a big deal? Can I get it exchanged?

Profile Evaluation for YL

10/12/Grad - 97/97/7.26
GEM (Grad from Tier 1.5ish Engg College) with 1 YOE as an Associate Product Manager (Technical) in a corporate AI Strategy team at one of the biggest Indian digital consumer products companies

Not any major spikes - was involved with technical societies in college with a few secretary/president positions, similar positions at school as well.

Looking forward to apply to ISB YL Co’29 - feeling lost on strength of credentials, best exam avenue and whether YL is the correct choice for furthering my career in product. Would appreciate some guidance.

Macbook M5 Air via Amazon

Hi,

I ordered Macbook Air M5 512 GB SSD 16 GB RAM via Amazon on 5 July during Prime Day Sale at pre hike price of 1.2L. The seller was Clicktech Retail.

The delivery window was 7 - 27 Jul, which then shortened to 12 - 23 Jul. However, my order has still not shipped and I’m afraid it would be cancelled (I ringed up Amazon CC today and they said that since this item is out of stock, shipping and delivery are still undecided).

Have other people also experienced this? I would appreciate any advice on what to do here and if it gets cancelled, where can I purchase it in Noida/Delhi/NCR at base price.

Thanks.
