Google's Tez App Review

2017-11-13T22:52:00.000+05:30

Hello friends,

Today i am reviewing a UPI based app which is growing like anything. This app is getting too much popularity due to its unique features and its user interface. So lets talk about Google's app TEZ.

You can imagine that how much this app is popular by its download count on Google Play Store which is increasing day by day, it has been downloaded more than 10 million times within few months of its launching. UPI apps and E-Wallets are getting too much popularity after the demonetization occur in last year. Now as already many of the UPI & E-Wallet apps are available in the market why this application is getting this much of hype. So lets start with the key highlights of this app.

Easy to use is the key feature of this app as a common man who don't know much about the technology can use this after a minimum configuration. Sending and receiving money is now too much easy, i am personally using this app for few weeks now and i can say this app will surely left behind its rival like PhonePe, BHIM etc.

Cashmode is the feature of this app which makes this app unique. By the cashmode feature of the app you can send and receive money by the person nearby you. You don't need to share your details if don't want to. This feature is making this app more secure to use.

How secure is this app to make transaction. So let me brief on this as many of the people don't want to use because of the thinking of data leakage and afraid of fraud can be done by this app. So at first if you are using this very first time you will have to configure this by just adding your mobile number which should be linked from your bank account and you will also have to share last six digit of your debit card number with its expiry.

Now this is the point where most of the people will stuck as this seems some kind of your secret data providing to the app but if you have done it earlier by using *99# you don't need to provide your card details here. So no need to worry about that your data will be stolen or fraud can be done by this app. Whenever somebody else will use this app in your phone he/she have to provide your mobile lock and after that 6 digit UPI PIN to make a transaction. Just to add that you can trust on this app because of Google name behind this app.

I am hoping that this app will be used by most of the smartphone users in near future. I can remember early days of the Paytm, Freecharge & Mobikwik, when people was not sure that should they use these E-Wallets or not but as you all know how much popular these apps these days.

This app is also giving you some offers by which you can earn some money. You can earn an amount of Rs. 51 by referral and few thousand by scratching coupons. There is a weekly jackpot kind of offer also in this app which can give you Rs. 1 Lakh also.

So what do you think about this app and what is your opinion on UPI apps. Please share your thoughts with me or if you have any query about this app you can ask here. I will surely try to help.

Moto G5 Plus (32GB)

Hello Guys,

Today I am going to talk about Motorola’s recently launched mobile phone Moto G5 Plus. Moto G5 Plus exclusively available on Flipkart @ Rs.16999 only. Moto G5 Plus is getting too much popularity as like previous G series phones. Now the question is whether this phone is good enough to buy at this price point. So let’s start Moto G5 Plus review.

MotoG5 Plus Hardware-So I am starting review of Moto G5 Plus with its hardware. Moto G5 Plus is a premium looking phone which comes with metal body. The Moto G5 Plus sports an aluminum finish, and this phone feels sturdy too. This phone doesn’t look like its predecessors which is a good movement by Motorola. New generation likes metal body more than poly-carbonate body. That is why every mobile phone makers started making metal body phones.

Moto G5 Plus comes with 5.2 Inch 1080p IPS display and protection of corning gorilla glass 3^rd. This phone is has 4GB RAM and 32GB internal memory which is expandable up to 128GB. It runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 625 octa-core processor clocked at 2 GHz.

This phone is having a decent 12MP primary camera and 5MP front facing camera which gives you good quality of pictures. This phone gives you brighter pictures due to bigger aperture value of f/1.7 in primary camera and f/2.2 in front facing camera. Primary camera has support of dual Led flash for clicking pictures in low light condition. Camera of this phone is a big point of attraction.

Camera of this phone is focusing very quickly while clicking pictures and making videos. Moto G5 Plus camera UI is clean, best thing of its camera UI is Professional mode which is useful if you like to click pictures with manual settings. Camera of this phone is capable to record 4k videos at 30 frames per second.

Moto G5 Plus has a 3000 mAh battery which can disappoint you as many of the mobile phone makers are giving you more power at this budget, but believe me you will not feel out of juice till night which is impressive. If you still not satisfied with its battery then Turbo charging functionality will surely make you happy.

So In terms of hardware this phone is quite impressive. I believe hardware of any phone is more important than software and hardware of this phone will surely force you to buy this one.

Moto G5 Plus Software- Now let’s talk about software of Moto G5 Plus. Moto G5 Plus is currently running on Android Nougat 7.0. We all know Motorola’s android phones are popular for its pure android experience, so if you like neat and clean user interface with pure android experience you can opt this one.

Motorola always give android updates on its phone, so you are surely going to get Android “O” update on this phone. I personally like Motorola mobiles for its neat & clean user interface.

Moto G5 Plus supports VoLTE so you can use Reliance Jio as well for using voice over LTE functionality.

My final verdict on this phone is if you need a good camera phone in this price point with stock Android experience from a reputed brand then this is surely made for you.

What is your opinion on this phone? Is this a good buy or waste of money? Are you going to buy this one or you have a good option in this range please let me

Top Three Mobiles Under Rupees 10000

Hello Guys,

Today I am going to tell you my top three pick for mobiles under 10k. Okay guys this post is for those who are searching a good phone under 10k budget. There is a tough competition in this budget segment. You can find too many options in this range which can make you confuse to decide which phone is good for you. So I will try to help you in choosing a good phone for you in this budget segment, so let’s start.

Redmi Note 4 (32 GB) 2GB RAM- This is the latest phone launched @ Rs.9999/- by Xiaomi in this January exclusively on Flipkart. We all know MI is dominating budget segment in India. So this phone is continuing MI legacy to dominate the budget segment. MI is getting popular in Indian market day by day due to its competitive price and full of features mobile phones. I am giving you a brief detail of Redmi Note 4 so that you can decide whether this phone is good option for you or not. Let’s start with hardware, this phone has a good 5.5” 1080p 2.5D curved IPS display with pixel density of 401 ppi. Viewing angels of this phone is good and visibility in sunlight is also good due to bright screen with light sensor. Build quality of the phone is nice, and metal unibody design gives this premium look. It runs on Qualcomm’s snapdragon 625 octa-core processor clocked at 2 GHz and I really like it as MI didn’t used a mediatek processor for making it cheaper. This phone comes with 2GB RAM and 32GB on board storage. This phone is having a decent 13MP primary camera and 5MP front facing camera which gives you good quality of pictures in daylight condition. This phone has a big 4100 mAh battery which is sufficient for whole day uses or even more. Only drawback of this phone is Hybrid dual SIM card slot which is quite common these days. On the software side this phone runs on Android Marshmallow 6.0 based on MIUI 8.
Lenovo K6 Power-This phone gives a fair competition to Redmi Note 4 in specifications. Lenovo K6 Power is available @ Rs.9999/- on flipkart. If you don’t want a 5.5” big screen then this can be a good alternate of Redmi Note 4. Starting with hardware, this phone is having a 5 inch 1080p IPS display with pixel density of 441 (higher than redmi note 4 due to small screen). Viewing angles of the phone is good but sunlight visibility is not that great. This phone has also metal unibody design with little curves at corners. It runs on Qualcomm’s snapdragon 430 octa-core chipset. This phone comes with 3GB RAM and 32GB on board storage. This phone has same problem of Hybrid SIM slot which is acceptable now a days. This phone is having 13MP primary camera with 8MP selfie camera which produce good pictures in good lighting condition. This phone comes with huge 4000 mAh battery which can give you a full day juice. The Lenovo K6 Power runs on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow based Pure UI. You will feel almost stock android experience in this phone. Dolby Atmos is a plus feature in this phone which delivers you enhanced sound quality while streaming media content.
Moto G Turbo Edition- Now while choosing the last option for my list I had a lot of option but I picked up this phone due to consistent performance of this phone and pure android experience with chances of getting android updates from Motorola. One more reason to choosing this phone is Turbo charging feature which is a very good thing for a phone in this range. This phone is currently available on flipkart @ Rs.9999 only. Now start this talk with hardware of this phone,Moto G Turbo is having a 5” 720p IPS display with corning gorilla glass 3 protection. Pixel density of the phone is lower 294ppi (due to 720p display) but viewing angles of this phone is impressive. Build quality of this phone is sturdy and fine, rubberize back makes this phone safe in your hand. Moto G Turbo runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 615 octa-core chipset. This phone comes with 2GB RAM and 16GB internal memory. This phone is having a good 13MP main camera and 5MP front facing camera. Primary Camera of this phone produces a good quality of pictures while front camera gives you average quality of pictures. Moto G Turbo comes with 2470 mAh battery which can last till night if you are an average user with moderate uses, but as I already mentioned that this phone has a facility of fast (turbo) charging you need not to worry about battery life. Unlike above two mobiles this phone doesn’t have a problem of Hybrid SIM slot as this phone comes with a proper dual SIM facility with memory expendability. The Moto G Turbo Edition is currently running on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow with stock android.

Okay guys this was my top three pick for mobiles under Indian rupees 10000. You can also tell me if you have a better option in this range. I hope this post will be helpful for you.

If you are bass lover and also want a clear mid and highs with good vocals then this headphone is for you. This headphone has frequency response of 20 Hz-20000Hz with impedance of 32 Ohms. Now let’s talk about build quality of this headphone, this headphone is well build for comfort and durability as JBL used metal in inner side of headband for expanding what makes it feel sturdy but makes it little bit heavier also. There is decent padding and an interesting stitched pattern along the edges in headband. Try this headphone you are surely going to like this JBL product.
Sony MDR-ZX310APB- Okay now I don’t need to tell you about Sony, as we all know how much Sony popular for its Display and Sound quality in all over the world. So you can try any Sony product with hesitation and this one is not the exception. This headphone is also available on flipkart and Snapdeal like online shopping stores within range of 1000 bucks.

Headphone is loud enough to listen all your songs in full volume because of 30 mm driver.

So this one is also a good buy for user with tight budget.

If are a youngster you already know why Skullcandy is getting popular, the looks and variety of color they provide in their headphones. This headphone is easily available on online stores within range of 900-1000 bucks. Best thing what I personally like in headphones of Skullcandy is the logo itself that skull like logo is unique and eye catching. This headphone is available in four different colors with metallic like looks. The build quality is descent and you will not feel cheap quality of plastic in this product of Skullcandy. Quality of the sound is very much like Sony with better looks. You can easily feel bass of the headphone as you put this on your ears. This headphone doesn’t have padding on headband which can be a drawback but not a deal breaker. This headphone can easily catch your eyes as soon you see this one. I know this is going to be your first choice if you are a sort of looks and design lover.

Okay guys now I believe this will help you to choose your perfect headphone in your budget.
