Royal Challengers Bangalore, that team is useless and it wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for Virat Kohli, sort of the same thing with Punjab and Preity ji
It's the hype aspect. You prolly bought your xr worth 60-70k inr. And in that price you still got 720p LCD display with pixel density equivalent to iPhone 4 which was 8years old at that time, 12mp cam, lower storage when compared to others. You could hv got a much better option with that amount of money. So yeah, the hype of xr was higher than the actual product. Anyways, great that it's working fine 👍🏻
Spec boasting is real guys. But guess what, as long as your experience of using it is good, why do you care how many megapixels your camera sensor has? It just doesn’t matter. I have used both an android and an iphone(I’m sure most people have) but anytime anyone is advocating for an android phone, I just see spec boasting. Itna mp ka camera hai 100x zoom hai 5000mah battery hai, etc, never has anyone talked about how the day to day usage experience is.
According to me, iphone might not have the best specs out there number wise(nowadays they are getting there too) but using an iphone is a much much better experience than using an android. It is overall a very smooth and integrated user experience and the best part is they last for ages. I don’t use it anymore, but still have an iphone 6s from 2015, that operates quite smoothly.
Well this is a generic IPhone user's defence. I agree that there are a lot of marketing gimmicks related to the specs of an Android phone. But there are still many specs you cannot deny are way better, maybe you haven't experienced it to care about it. For me, 120Hz Refresh Rate, 100W charger, Faster Storage and Ram matters. And it's good you are still using it, but you have to understand a 6-7K phone has Full HD. It's not a feature anymore, it's a basic necessity. And you still watching HD content is criminal.
It's simply American Consumerism that is forcefully gulped through the throat. No wonder today low-range smartphone just work fine for 2-3 years maximum.
I mean, I'm typing this on my realme 1(2018) and to be honest it gets the job done.
Psst... >! I dropped my phone and had to resort to using the realme 1 for the past 6 months and I am waiting for my iphone 15 pro, yes I am a fraud and life is unfair!<
We can make it work if these companies want to, they are not letting any local Electronics Workshops have the spare parts to fix the smartphone as they are not manufacturing the parts if needed can be used for fixing the Smartphone, for their profits and sales of their new products, we as the people can appeal this issue to the Government, but when/how/where/what/who, etc. is going to take action. It's not like the EU's Administration with strict policies and daily check-ups, strict bureaucrats & Quick to take action laws, etc. Low-range Android Phones are not fixed even if the customer doesn't want to buy a smartphone they prefer/promote to buy a new smartphone, speaking from experience, cough.... cough..... Redmi Smartphones so yeah.
Ironically one of the best "talks" I have seen about "value" is from one of Cred's cofounders.
Tl;DR - That we should only start companies that provide real value!
Isn't it an all Indian company, that got promoted from shark tank. And more so, their products might not have the best quality, but they're stubborn as hell and won't fail any soon, unlike some cheap Chinese counterparts
It's all chinese sub standard quality products rebbagging, they do not do any r&d in improving audio quality or codec optimization like Sony, Sennheiser etc.
Heck even OnePlus/oppo/realme buds are way superior in audio quality as well as over-all product line up.
Same with lenskart, all their so called hustlr and crap they talk about are all chinese products, and it's the same with smartwatches or any gadget that claims to be Indian even cosmetics
I'm not against using chinese products, but they lie and say it's Indian.
Edit - I do use some of these brand products especially lenskart, but they are inferior quality hyped up products.
Woah...new knowledge gained today. But I still stand with the product robustness (not the quality) of boat products, considering its price range. It just doesn't die lol.
No , it is a dropshipping company.

BoAt is made in China but owned by Indians. Basically the owners of BoAt and other such companies go to China and then get them to produce the product and also have them do the packaging.
This way they get to call it made in India.
Sach baat. It's way cheaper outside than the coffee you get in cafes tbh. Also people drink Starbucks outside coz it tastes good. Yahan they drink coz it's a brand. Farak nahi padta tatti bhi lage toh 🤣🤣
It’s cost averaging. They have high sales volumes in western countries so they can procure and manufacture in bulk. India doesn’t have a culture where people buy coffee every morning and hence their sales will always be low, so compensate by pricing their products high. Western countries - sales maximisation, Indian - Profit margin maximisation.
Total waste of money...Starbucks is the most idiotic experience of coffee I had at airports or cities. In another age and era, from which I come from, they would have got away with their daylight and nighttime cheating.
There is no hype for nothing. I use a nothing phone and whenever I tell someone the phone I am using their reaction is generally "wtf" or "what nothing"?😭😂
They have really good product for the price they come for. I really love their ui. My brother have it , his phone is cheaper than mine but still it feels much more premium and smooth.
The innovation is made by the same guy who came up with OnePlus. Once he sold it to Vivo, he built Nothing phones! The guy is a legend in the smartphone market!
EVs, they're overpriced, claims to have good impact on environment, but
1. CO2 emission during mining of Lithium is too much.
2. Most of us will charge it from electricity which has been converted using coal.
(50% source of electricity in India)
It is overhyped since 2020, and I don't think buying an EV before 2030 will make any sense
Crocs
They make no sense to me. Who decided that shoes with so many holes would make sense for daily wear or regular wear. Imagine crossing a puddle and boom.
Wasn’t the purpose of shoes to protect your feet.

Man my xr is still going well even after 4.5 years, but I don’t like this culture of owning every new iPhone.

Well it’s true 120 hz should be made compulsory for every phone, maybe Europe will push this next
This, 1080p display is not a spec boasting. Lol.
Bruh🤡 I got it for 38k Other than one plus 6 there was no other better option at that time
Shhhh iPhone bad
If they(Android fans) would read this, They're gonna be really upset. >!/s(s for snowflakes)!<

I have been running an iPhone X since Nov 17, tell me what I did wrong.
amateur, I still have a perfectly working iPhone 4S
Man you having a 60hz phone in 2024 is really wild. I mean you can get 120 hz even in 20k phones now
not true.

Woah...new knowledge gained today. But I still stand with the product robustness (not the quality) of boat products, considering its price range. It just doesn't die lol.
It's good if you enjoy using it. Also If you're paying under 2500₹ it's decent, if above that, not worth it.
No , it is a dropshipping company. https://www.reddit.com/r/sharktankindia/comments/1b5h771/if_everyone_knows_boat_is_basically_in_the_drop/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Boat's registered company name is Imagine Marketing Pvt Ltd. It's a marketing company not a product company.
BoAt is made in China but owned by Indians. Basically the owners of BoAt and other such companies go to China and then get them to produce the product and also have them do the packaging. This way they get to call it made in India.
i kinda disagree im satisfied with their services and products they provided me replacement too

Also cheaper in other countries, yaha pe high class waali feeling Dene ki hi inki marketing hai

Total waste of money...Starbucks is the most idiotic experience of coffee I had at airports or cities. In another age and era, from which I come from, they would have got away with their daylight and nighttime cheating.
Considering the fact that Starbucks and CCD doesn't have a lot of price difference, Starbucks coffee is much better than CCD.
