Nexus 6 is not that expensive

"Nexus 6"- Google's Flagship for Nexus Line-up of smartphones is little bit different from it's elder siblings in terms of principles. Instead of High specs, Average build quality and Average Camera, it's just premium. So directly it can considered Google's first step towards Android Silver or typically premium Line Up of Nexus Smartphones. Now Nexus 6 is priced at $649 which isn't affordable in any sense considering Nexus 5 to be priced around $300. While there's criticism and controversy combined on it's reputation, I still Feel it's the the one of the best "Bang for the Buck" smartphones around  $600-$700 price tag in this world.

Guys Don't forget the Quality

The quality of this Nexus 6 is top-notch and certainly there's no doubt about it. Of-course since it's the "Blown Up Moto X 2014"  it benefits from a Good Camera, Battery and Build Quality, while some may definitely argue with iPhone concept, but Hey Look the price. I don't really think it's advisable to migrate from Nexus 5 to Nexus 6, because Nexus 5 still is an awesome smartphone with end specs and a 5" screen. The Nexus 6 features 2k display which is directly compared to the phone like G3, Note 4 featuring them but certainly they're priced higher.

Ultimately Decision Remains Yours

No Matter how much you try to prove your point, decision still remains yours. I'm not saying Nexus 6 is cheap, but it's not that expensive for what it is being criticize in the world. I know it's not perfect, it still has problems with Nexus letters falling apart from the back, the pinkish tint in the screen on lower brightness and high exposures in pictures from 13MP camera, but it's still bang for the buck smartphone with Android Updates Guaranteed upto 18 months for the price around $600-700. So Guys what do you think, share your thoughts in comments down below.

One Plus One to launch in India with Invite system

One Plus One was announced back in April 2014 and since then, it has been in tremendous demand in USA and other markets where they formerly where shipping with invite system. From OCTOBER 27, that's yesterday you can pre-order One Plus One from their website with limit of two devices per order. As posted by Carl- "one of the staff member of the company"-  via One Plus forums on August 20 , The company was hiring a General Manager for India.

Friends,

 

 

We understand that the excitement about OnePlus is real, but don't think we're slacking off just because we haven't made any major announcements. In the past few months we've seen some amazing traction. We know that Indian customers have very high demands and expectations, which is why we've been working hard behind the scenes to take OnePlus to India.

 

A key figure to our success in India will be our General Manager who will help us set up the India team and operations. Today, we're announcing that we're hiring for this position. Like any other company, we're looking for experience, brains, and perseverance - but none of this matters if we don't share the same dreams or connect on culture.


We need your help to source the crazy talent that will help build OnePlus into an Indian success story. Please have a look at our job description, and share it with whomever you think might be a good fit.


Together, we'll change the trajectory of the Indian tech scene.

On OCT 25 Saturday, Mr.Carl  posted a thread with the title "Invites For India" where-in he described the methodology of How One Plus will sell phones in India via Invite system.  Mr.Carl also mentioned that they'd be working with local partners which will be a efficient and comparatively an easy  way for people to get hands with the device.

Friends,

Let me first start by wishing you a (belated) very happy Diwali! From everyone at OnePlus, we hope it was filled with joy, light and family.


Another week is now gone meaning we’re one week closer to bringing the One to India.


We’ve made tremendous progress in just the last week and are grateful to all of our partners who took time during their holiday to help us move this forward.


 

We’ll be ready to share some very exciting updates with you in the coming weeks. But for now, we wanted to talk a little about how you’ll be able to get the One in India.


As with our current launch countries, Indian users will be able to purchase the One with an India specific invite. Invites have been immensely helpful for us thus far in our current launch countries. They allow us to control our inventory, scale our team and support services to grow along with demand and create an overall better experience for those users with the One. As this is our first experience with the Indian market, we didn’t want to be too ambitious. We are more concerned with offering outstanding service and experiences for users than getting the One in as many hands as possible. It will take us some time to learn and the invites are a great way for us to do that.


Don’t worry.


 

Invites will be neither scarce nor impossible to come by. We’ll also be working with a local partner for an even easier way to get your hands on the One. In addition, invites will also be available through our forums and social media channels… but more information on that a bit later.


The invite system may not stay in place forever. We’re brand new to the region and need to control our risks. However, we will quickly learn and adapt to make sure we’re always doing our best for our Indian fans. For now, though, we hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend. We’re excited to see you soon!

Reasons Why a flagship Android user won't feel like switching to iPhone 6

It's Apple time of the year and whole world saw how Apple neglecting Steve Jobs' comments on big-screen smartphones launched the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus with 4.7" and 5.5" display. While the war of Android vs iOS will never end owning to fanboys, here are my top reasons "Reasons Why a flagship Android user won't feel like switching to iPhone 6 ( well there can be exceptions )". 

1. Display and the resolution stuff

Considering a iOS user since years, this maybe a new thing. However the thing is that Android Flagships typically are confined to at least 5" display, take s5, g3, and M8 as example. iPhones finally made their way to displays more than 720p with 750p for 6 and full HD 1080p for iPhone 6 plus. Think Android way now, 1080p displays were playing in market since 2 years and eventually now making their way to 2k displays. Remember the first gen iPad mini which was launched with non-retina displays and Apple boys had the answer " We didn't notice any difference though" for all questions asked. While some may totally argue with quality principles, look at HTC and Sony displays !

2. Traditional File Transfer method

iTunes is the traditional file transfer method for iDevices excluding Mac at certain levels. Though Bluetooth Sharing method is becoming obsolete now-a-days, but take a case where you want a PDF document from your friend instantly, so all you're confined to in that case is Bluetooth Sharing method which Apple Users seriously can't. And with iPhones you simply can't use your phone as FLASH DRIVE. Though some may argue about security ethics, but come on!

3. Battery Life

Battery life always have been the worst part of iPhone. But this year, many reviews claim to have a better life of iPhones. But seriously look at Android Flagships with their mAH number game which does matter in many aspects. Let's face a situation with equal battery life of iPhone and an Android Flagship, in that situations ultra power saving mode of Galaxy s5 can easily adjust your battery potential with limited amount of features to get access to.

4. Camera and the Specs number game

iPhone 6  still has 8MP camera. Though it may excel in camera on comparison with certain phones but still Nokia Lumia 1020 has 41MP camera and Sony Xperia Z1 has 20MP camera which are bound to excel in many terms with their innovative technology. While the cameras of Z1 and Lumia have better customisation options to adjust the picture as your wish with different modes for selfies and different situations. Now coming to specs number game which is famous in all mobile markets. Comparing specs of iPhone 6 with most of Android Flagships, you'll be disappointed leaving aside performance because iOS performs awesome on average hardware, but still most people get enchanted with specs number game and that's the thing basically to consider in the arena where competition is getting tougher and tougher.
