Not satisfactory
OnePlus Nord CE 5G

OnePlus Nord CE does not have good processing software for the photos and so the quality is poor. It has nothing really to do with the chipset in this case. The Pixel 4a with an inferior chipset takes photos which are superior to pictures by phones that are more expensive. The overall look and feel ...of the phone is not very good. Also, I don't know when they will upgrade to Android 12. Many phones are going for greater storage built in rather than having support for SD cards. Also, now with plenty of cloud storage it is quite cheap to store on the cloud.Read More

Overrated phone and too expensive
Google Pixel 4a

Surprised that you get smudges and scratches. The body is especially treated to ensure it does not get smudges. It has fast charging though may not be as fast as some other phones. It charges from low battery to 100% in 1 hr 15 mins.

Overpriced for no reason
Google Pixel 4a

I think you need to check your phone as the camera works well in both Android 11 and Android 12. If you upgraded on OTA then you might have to factory reset to get proper performance from the camera.

Offers nothing that's worth this kind of money

That is a problem which the seller should resolve.

It was only Rs 31999 at the time you wrote your review and not Rs 40000.

Simple to use Expresso and Cappuccino maker

This was given to me as a present. I found the instructions easy to follow except for some ambiguity regarding the coffee setting and the steam setting. I am not clear if I have to put extra water to make steam or do shift it to the steam setting while making expresso. I use some good quality Ar...Read more

TATA TIAGO PETROL " honest review " AFTER 650 km
Tata Tiago

Need to drive at least 2000 km to get a real feel for the car so that some running in takes place. Moreover if one has a point like not good for the highway one has to give the reason then it becomes useful.

Does not give reasons for any of his views. If you say not good for highway one has to also say why for the review to be useful. Same comment for many other points.

My ANHC-slightly overpriced
Honda City 1.5L i-VTEC

The mileage is very low for this car. Is is manual or automatic transmission? I am getting 14 km/l in Delhi (one years average) and 18-18.5 km/l in inter city driving. Car is very stable and I have found ABS has saved me twice when I had to jam on the brakes - straight line stop and no skidding. ...Rgds, Ashok SinghRead More

MACBOOK - THE GOOD AND THE BAD
Apple Macbook

This is an update to the review. I replaced the motherboard successfully after having bought one from the US for Rs 19,000. Soon after it started working well and I was patting myself on the back the hard drive conked out. Started making a click sound which I was told was a sure sign of hard drive f...ailure. Replace the hard drive myself after buying the HD for Rs 4800. Now I had paid Rs 54K for the computer and about 24K for repairs. Alas in 2 months the cooling fan failed and the indication was the computer crashing with high temperature. I bought a fan for Rs 2K and replaced it myself. Mercifully it is still working 6 months later. The windows laptop I bought for Rs 44K in 2005 is still working and the only problem was a hard drive replacement for Rs 2900. Who said the Macbooks are reliable. If I had the same repairs done from Apple Dealers would have cost me upwards of 60K. So my computer actually cost me Rs 1 lac!!! Read More

A gem (of an engine) in a cheap gift wrap!
Honda City 1.5L i-VTEC

Personal likes and dislikes play a great role in car buying decisions. What is sauce for the goose is not necessarily sauce for the gander. However, a good review allows people to pick the features they like and buy accordingly. I think this review is right on the ball. Keep going.

Amazing car with excellent features
Honda City 1.5L i-VTEC

Useful bits of info for a prospective buyer to mull over. The underbody coating is worthwhile as the mud and gunk from the road gets coated on the under surface and retains water during the wet weather causing corrosion. The teflon coating is not very useful. I had it done on my Santro and the Honda... City GXi. Ashok SinghRead More
