Samsung Galaxy A36 5G vs POCO X8 5G — Which one should I buy for ₹25,000?

2 Upvotes

​

Hey everyone! I'm confused between these two phones, and I'd appreciate honest opinions from people who have used either phone.

My options:

- Samsung Galaxy A36 5G — 8GB RAM / 128GB storage

- POCO X8 5G — 6GB RAM / 128GB storage

Both are available for around ₹25,000.

Samsung A36 advantages:

- Better and more versatile camera setup

- 6 years of OS and security updates

- 8GB RAM

- Lighter and slimmer design

POCO X8 advantages:

- 6.83-inch 1.5K AMOLED, 120Hz display

- 9,000mAh battery and 67W charging

- Snapdragon 6s Gen 4 processor

- Better battery capacity for gaming and watching movies/series

My main questions:

  1. Is 6GB RAM enough for gaming and daily use over the next 3–4 years?

  2. How is POCO's real-world battery backup and HyperOS experience?

  3. Is Samsung's camera and software support worth choosing over POCO's bigger battery and sharper display?

  4. Which phone offers better overall value at ₹25,000?

Please give your honest opinion based on real-world experience, not just specifications. If you own either phone, please share its pros and cons.

Which one would you buy with your own money, and why?

Other Nothing Phone (4a) missing incoming calls

• Upvotes

​

I bought my Nothing Phone (4a) recently and incoming calls keep disconnecting immediately without ringing. I get missed call notifications afterward even while actively using the phone.

I'm using Jio 5G. Is anyone else facing this issue? Is it a software bug or a network problem? Any fixes?

Thanks!

Got the Amkette Flow 2 Speed Mouse at around ₹1,600 on Flipkart (with card offer)

Post image
• Upvotes

Just got the Amkette Flow 2 Speed. Here are my first impressions after using it.

Smoothness & Scroll Wheel:

The mouse feels really smooth overall. The main scroll wheel is genuinely impressive. Tried the hyper-scroll feature in Excel, and it scrolled through around 3,000 rows in one go. It's super smooth and useful for work.

Side scrolling isn't as smooth as I expected, though. But haan, kaam chal jayega!

Connectivity & Software:

Connectivity has been seamless so far, and the software works flawlessly. No issues setting things up.

Comfort:

Comfortable to hold, especially for regular office work, browsing, and Excel-heavy tasks.

Clicks:

The left click and both side buttons are almost completely silent which is great. But the right click makes a noticeably clicky sound, unlike the other buttons.

Not sure if this is normal or if I got a defective unit.

For anyone using the Amkette Flow 2: Does your right click also make a clicky sound while the left click is practically silent? Please let me know if this is normal or if I should get my unit checked.

Overall, at around ₹1,600 with the Flipkart card offer, my first impressions are pretty good. Let's see how it holds up over time!

12,700+ US tech workers have moved back to India this year amid H-1B visa chaos, & local salaries are nowhere near US pay. Some are even taking a 70% pay cut. What a nightmare of a career move.

General wifi gaya toh hotspot chala lo is such a normal indian sentence that i never realised it’s basically an infrastructure story lol

71 Upvotes

wifi dies at home and nobody even panics anymore

phone uthao

Jio 5G hotspot on

laptop connect

continue whatever you were doing 😭

i always thought this was just normal backup behaviour until i saw that only around 1 in 5 indian homes actually has fixed broadband. 

then it kinda makes sense why mobile internet became so important here.

getting fibre to a whole city is one thing. getting that fibre inside every gali, building, society, floor and house is another headache entirely.

digging

permissions

society wale uncle

installer timing

random last mile issues

meanwhile mobile network is already there.

and honestly Jio making 5G this cheap/fast basically means your “backup internet” is sometimes faster than the wifi you're backing up 😭

Akash was talking about home broadband again during all the IPO stuff and now i get why JioFiber + AirFiber are such a big part of the next phase.

India kinda skipped straight into “mobile-first everything”.

when your wifi dies do you actually wait for it anymore or just hotspot and forget?

My main concern is a good camera quality and smooth functioning. And ofc it should be a good phone overall but I don't really know anything about phones so I can't really tell which one is actually good

I'm considering nothing, one plus, samsung phones but can't really make a decision and there's something negative about everything I've considered so idk atp

The reviews I've seen here have a lot of technical words I can't understand so please suggest something in um simpler words ig

General Switching from Android to iPhone 17. Anything I should know before buying?

5 Upvotes

I've been using Android all my life and I'm thinking of switching to the iPhone 17. Since I plan to use it for at least 3-4 years, I thought I'd get the latest one I can comfortably afford rather than upgrade again in a couple of years.

I've never used iOS before, so I'm not really sure what to expect.

Most of my stuff is on Google. I use Drive for files, Keep for notes and Google Photos for all my photos and backups. Can I continue using everything as usual on an iPhone, or are there any issues I should know about?

Also, for those who've switched from Android to iPhone, what took you the longest to get used to? Anything you miss about Android or wish you'd known before switching?

And for those who've bought an iPhone in India, where did you get the best deal?

will there be a good sale around diwali

No Flair Vivo V20 (4G) to OnePlus Nord 6

Post image
23 Upvotes

Got this phone for ₹42,500 from an offline store after looking at multiple options, and finally pulled the trigger. It’s been a week so far, and the phone has been super smooth. The camera is decent, and the processor is pretty good too.

The only thing that’s been a little underwhelming is the battery. Honestly, it doesn’t feel like a 9000mAh battery in terms of SOT.

What settings or changes would you recommend to optimise the battery and get better SOT? Also, any other tips or advice for a new user would be appreciated.

You can ask about any questions regarding nord 6
