King of tablet!
(Bought 11 inch m1 ipad pro base variant. Reviewing after using 3 weeks)

Pros-
1. Aluminium build, narrow bezel, premium design.
2. Quad speaker- sounds great.
3. Unlike mini LED in 12.9 inch ipad pro- display pretty decent with liquid retina lcd 600 nits brightness supports HDR content.
4. Single port- now supports thunderbolt, fast charging. With good quality usb type c hub you can do multitasking. Mirror screen to external display with type c to hdmi cable.
5. New apple M1 chip with 8 gb ram gives high performance with great power efficiency. Battery last 1 days with moderate to heavy usage.
6. Front facing camera now support wide view with center stage feature.
7.11 inch is a sweet spot because of its portability, Reading ebooks. While 12.9 inch is less portable but gives pleasant experience with content viewing.

Cons
1. Although Ipad has very strong hardware but its crippled by limited software functionality of ipados. Recent lauching of ipados15 in Apple WWDC didn't add most awaited feature like pro apps, external monitor support, mac like filesystem etc. Ipados has long way to go hence can't be a laptop replacement yet.
2. Accessories (not included) like Apple pencil, magic keyboard are very expensive. But thank god apple has included charger and type c cable- thats very generous
3. Not IP rated, no wireless charging, no calling feature in 5g variant (even after paying 15k extra)!
4. Fragile! Can't use without protective case.
5. Buying just ipad is not enough- you have to buy accessories like apple pencil, magic keyboard, screen protector, well padded bag, usb c hub- which altogether cost nearly close to new m1 macbook pro!
So think wisely before buying. Consider according to your necessity.
Overall its the best tablet available in market.

Thanks to Amazon for prompt delivery.

Samsung recently switched their top prosumer line from MLC to TLC/3D NAND. They call it 3-bit MLC, which is exactly what TLC is. For those looking at higher endurance, the MLC-based 970 Pro is still the drive to get. Sequential writes are quicker on the old drive and a 1TB unit will have 1200TBW endurance as opposed to 600TBW for the 980 Pro.

This means that durability of the 980 Pro is halved from the 970 PRO line, but it does mean that all 9xx series NVMe now have TLC. Therefore it makes very little sense to get this over the 970 EVO Plus, which runs the 980 Pro close. There are a few notable differences though.

The PCIe 4.0 interface on the 980 Pro only offers an improvement in peak bandwidth. Controller optimisations are where you get drive speed differences from. Samsung moved the controller to the same 8nm node as the nVidia 30xx series GPUs, and thus offer much lower operating temperatures and better power efficiency. The 970 EVO+ in my system runs 105C without a heatsink and peak writes, the 980 PRO tops out at about 78C in the same conditions. I do use a heatsink but like to test stuff just the same.

Most of the speed bumps over older lines and other drives come from the massive SLC cache, coupled with 1GB onboard DDR4 memory, you can get above 100GB of high-speed writing at a time. The new Elpis controller offers 4 times the number of queues per channel and as a result you can expect 22k IOPS at 4k QD1, which is staggering.

But on the desktop, you hardly notice any of this. I upgraded to this from a Crucial P1, which is a QLC DRAM-less drive and is one of the slowest NVMe units ever created. The 980 Pro feels a bit snappier and game load times are down by about 30%, but when comparing 10 sec to 7 sec it basically makes no difference.

Either the 970 EVO+ or the 980 (non-pro) would be good options. The latter has no DRAM buffer, so it begins to crawl once the SLC cache is full - after about 50GB. The EVO+ has a smaller SLC cache, but the DRAM buffer makes sure that you won't notice. The prime difference is when writing large datasets to the drive, or doing a drive fill.

The price drop on the PRO line is a good move, but it comes with a stack of compromises. Samsung now has a crowded range with 4 choices between 10 and 20k, so you should choose what suits your needs the best. I feel my 970 EVO+ is actually the better value, and by quite a bit.

I really like this MB as it offers most features for less money. I installed two ddr4 sticks of 8gb 3000MHz RAM and a Ryzen 5 3600 CPU along with a gtx 970 graphics card. I have 5 sata hard drives, and yet there is still one additional sata port free. Also keep in mind that if you install the M. 2 SSD, you won't be able to use the sata ports 5 and 6. The motherboard only comes with a couple of sata cables so keep your standoffs and screws handy. It's slightly longer than a micro atx MB but small enough to fit in a mid tower. So far the temps have been good but I have a good airflow setup and the PC is in an AC room. One thing to remember is that if you buy this from amazon, you'll have to update the bios to 1.67 or higher for it to boot with Ryzen 3rd gen processors. Everything else worked perfectly, Bios is pretty user friendly with a lot of OC options and RAM worked at 3000mhz easily. CPU also overclocks on it's own without setting up anything. Really happy with the performance.

It comes with 2 chassis fan, one Aura sync rgb header, but there is no inbuilt graphics so you either need an APU or a GPU for display to work. I wish they had done away with the PS2 ports and added usb 2 instead so we could use those for other peripherals instead.
There is no need to say anything about this motherboard, i follow DIGIT magazine, and in digit this motherboard is in the list of entry level gaming rig. So i did not think twice or check for other to buy this motherboard. The best motherboard in this range, only the price is a little bit more, if it is Rs. 700 lesser, then it will be the best in its segment. Paid Rs. 6949. At one time available at Rs. 6249. So check the price but no need to check the product.

Tip for consumers:
ALWAYS TRY TO BUY IT PHYSICALLY IN SHOPS CUZ YOU DONT AVE ANY GUARANTEE OF A GOOD PRODUCT WHEN BUYING IT IN ONLINE.

I loved it. But drawback is 360 reality audio. To enjoy it,, you need a subscription with music apps. Otherwise. Its good. For me.
These are very well built earbuds and feel slightly heavy, But ear fitting and comfort is really good. You will get nice eat fitting and it work like isolation and lower down the noise. If we talk in details then.

1. Built Quality - 9.5/10
2. Battery life - 10/10
3. Charging time - 8/10
4. Sound - 7.5/10
5. Bass - 8/10
6. ANC - No
7. Game mode - No

If the price is 4.5 or 5k Then its good, but at price of 6k its not that good, you can increase your budget and go for Buds Pro.

Tip for consumers:
protip: try using an axis bank cc. It reduces the price drastically
