The New ZenFones From Asus
Asus is hosting its biggest ever India event in New Delhi on Thursday and while there will be several new products, the stars of the show will of course be the new ZenFones. The ZenFone Selfie in particular looks like a delight, with its dual rear and front 13-megapixel cameras. The front camera's 88-degree wide-angle lens, f/2.2 aperture, dual LED front flash, and 140-degree panoramas ensure you and your friends will never miss out on the perfect selfie. The rear camera's just as good, with dual LED flash of its own, and f/2.0 aperture for improved low-light performance. The ZenFone Selfie comes in stylish Pure White, Chic Pink and Aqua Blue colours, making sure you stand out from the crowd. It's backed by an octa-core 64-bit CPU, 3GB RAM, and Gorilla Glass 4 for protection. All this at a price that's likely less than you think. The Asus ZenFone 2 Laser looks modest in comparison on paper, but it's no slouch either when it comes to features and specifications. It packs in a 5-inch HD display with Gorilla Glass 4, with 2GB RAM and dual SIM 4G support. The highlight of the device is its rear camera's laser auto-focus technology, which enables near-instant focus as fast as 0.3 seconds, especially in dim light conditions. The 13-megapixel camera packs in a five-element lens and f/2.0 aperture for good low light performance. The ZenFone 2 Laser's 70 percent screen-to-body ratio means it's comfortable to hold in hand, despite having a large display. The ZenUI comes with features like ZenMotion, SnapView, Trend Micro Security, and ZenUI Instant Updates that enhance usability, ensure security and privacy, and deliver a seamless user experience. When Asus finally reveals the price of the ZenFone 2 Laser, you will find that it's surprisingly affordable and great value at the price. Last, but definitely not the least is the Asus ZenFone 2 Deluxe, which brings the popular ZenFone 2 in a new avatar with enhanced storage. What will be price of the three phones - ZenFone Selfie, ZenFone 2 Laser, and ZenFone 2 Delxue? Leave a comment with your guesses and stand a chance to win a smartphone and other goodies from Asus.

(Don't Buy Anything From Snapdeal) Snapdeal Defrauded Me, Again!
I ordered a XOLO Black a few days ago on 12th January and got it delivered on 16th January. In the description box of the product, the variant was described to have 3GB RAM. I was very happy when I got the device and it ran quite good until I loaded all of my apps in it. The multi-tasking performance was not good so, I thought that it's because of the HIVE Atlas ROM which the phone runs on as it is very buggy and is never updated. On 29th January, I got really frustrated of the device because although it had 3GB RAM, it didn't work like it, leaving the software in it aside. So, I decided to do a few benchmarks on the device and I saw that it had ONLY 2GB OF RAM from the CPU-Z app. I instantly contacted Snapdeal support and asked for a refund and then they called me today. They said, "Sorry sir, the 7 days time of returning the device is over, now we can't do anything regarding this." So, what I can say about Snapdeal and how they defraud people is this: Also, I have a sick habit of taking screenshots of a product's description before buying it. I did the same for this one too. I'll be putting them over here too. Notice that the seller of the device is "LAVA INT-GGN-Sohna BD-VOI" which sells the device which I've bought and then there's this seller "LAVA INT-HYD-MANDAL-VOI" which sells the 3GB variant of the XOLO Black so, I can't be lying because we can't do any kind of "Inspect Element" in their mobile app if they are thinking that I did this. So, all I'd like to say is WTF SNAPDEAL? Even your competitor "Flipkart" also provides a 30-day return policy because they know that they don't run any frauds of this type. THIS IS MY LAST PURCHASE WITH SNAPDEAL, BEFORE THIS, THE ALSO TRIED TO DEFRAUD ME WITH AN INFOCUS M330 WHICH I TRIED TO BUY, LOOK HERE: http://forum.gadgets.ndtv.com/t/infocus-m330-users-what-do-you-think-about-the-update-rolled-out-today-by-infocus/1889/1

Root - A Privilege That Should Be Allowed By The Smartphone Companies
Now many of you people wouldn't know what 'Root' is so, lemme explain, it is kind of a 'Privilege', which allows us to access the core functions of our android smartphone, it is something that is not allowed by the smartphone companies and what they do is if they find that a phone is rooted, they void it's warranty because it is something that could help us overlock our phone's CPU to a higher level. Now this is only one feature of root, but there are many others like by rooting your phone you could have access to 'Cheat Tools' which can help us modify an apps data, make In App Purchases (IAP) free and patch some apps to get their premium versions for free, removing unwanted system apps with ease, but it also helps in SECURING OUR PHONE, like '360 Security', it needs root to establish a firewall to protect our phones from unwanted access, key logging etc., I think that it should be allowed by the smartphone companies, like there are two sides to every coin, just like that, there are two kind of people, one which need it to secure their phones and one who hack IAP and stuff by using it. I want to say that people would never stop rooting their phones and hacking stuff just because these companies void the warranty, it's like a limitation, how do you know who will use it for the good and who will use it for that bad? So, simply just let people do what they want, they paid for the phones and warranty comes within it. Some tools that could help you root your phone: 1) iRoot (Windows) Some hacking apps due to which smartphone companies don't allow root: 1) Freedom Note: I've not posted the rooting methods, please search Google for that.
2) iRoot (Mobile)
3) Unlock Root (PC Version Only)
4) Framaroot (Android version only)
2) Lucky Patcher
3) SB Game Hacker

Help me purchase my new lap top
Most important spec of all is "build quality, service, support". I am willing to pay for that quality! General Specs. 1) What is your budget? Up to $1500 2) What size notebook would you prefer? e. Desktop Replacement; 17"+ screen 3) Where will you buying this notebook?
I have nothing against large PC companies, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Sony, etc. That said, it seems very difficult to get close to what I'm looking for from these main suppliers. I live in the US but discovered in my research, small PC builders, they seem to cater to gamers, hi end business machines, but some will work with someone like me. Some were even in the UK and seemed to be well thought of and some even seemed competitive in price, even with shipping. A question is, is it silly for me to consider looking at these small builders, I might be incorrect in thinking that these smaller shops might take quality/service/support as more important, then say a multinational corp. I'm open to any and all suggestions, directions, opinions. Anybody who has weighed through this long winded request and wants to comment, hey, feel free, I'll be happy to hear any thing you all have to say.
US if possible UK if necessary
4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
N/A
5) Would you consider laptops that are refurbished/redistributed?
Yes
6) What are the primary tasks will you be performing with this notebook?
Watching/streaming videos, uTube, TV...Web surfing...Email...letter writing
7) Will you be taking the notebook with you to different places, leaving it on your desk or both?
Notebook will travel but will be plugged in most of the time, no matter where it is.
8) Will you be playing games on your notebook? If so, please state which games or types of games?
No games.
9) How many hours of battery life do you need?
Machine will rarely run on battery longer than 1 hour.
10) Would you prefer to see the notebooks you're considering before purchasing it or buying a notebook on-line without seeing it is OK?
I do not need to physically see/touch machine before buying.
11) What OS do you prefer? Windows (Windows 7 / 8), Mac OS, Linux, etc.
I'm hoping to buy PC with Win 10 installed, hopefully without bloatware/crapware, a clean install.
Screen Specifics
17.3
12) What screen resolution would you prefer?
Text should be big and east to read, very good resolution a must. Something like a 1920x1080 display would be fine.

No preference, open to suggestions.
Build Quality and Design
Build quality is most important also warranty, support (Will pay for quality)
14) Are the notebook's looks and stylishness important to you?
No
15) When are you buying this laptop?
Right away, if my old one dies, or end of July, when Win 10 is available, I have Win 7 now and I am eligible for the upgrade to Win 10, either as OE or when Win 10 media is available.
16) How long do you want this laptop to last?
As long as my old one, 5+ years
Notebook Components
CPU, a decent dual core or a lower end Core i3-5-7 processor core may be a better choice down the road.
GPU, any Intel IGP should do, or a lower end dedicated chip.
RAM: 12GB sounds good, open to suggestions.
Networking: A good Intel or Atheros chip will do the trick quite well. plus Blue Tooth.
Extras Card readers, fingerprint stuff, docking station. not important. Connections for USB 2 and 3, MDMI, ethernet, yes important.
Battery, What ever battery comes with this PC will be hard pressed to keep up with a 17" display, as stated above, unit will be plugged in most of the time.
Thank you for any help, direction or suggestions.
