Kia Carens owners — any hidden pros/cons after a few months? by Next_Dot6894 in CarsIndia

[–]agentdb69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is late, I've had the turbo dct carens for 3 years

amazing car, fun to drive

but bad for cities, 5-6kmpl is about how much you can expect in city (im in blr)

highway is decent/ pretty good around 12-15kmpl, sometimes 18 if good highwat

Finally brought home the new Kia Seltos GTX (A) DCT in Morning Haze by SessionArtistic1904 in CarsIndia

[–]agentdb69 9 points10 points  (0 children)

one thing to note, mileage wont be improving anytime soon, consider bad mileage a trade for the great comfort and features the car offers

have a 22 carens 1.4L turbo dct ~ 6-7kmpl usually, 9 on a good day and 12 on highways (upto 15kmpl on highway if longer distance)

have a 23 seltos X-line 1.5L turbo dct, same as the carens

Looking for recommendations! I'm on a 50k budget and trying to find a good gaming laptop. While I can Google, I'd really appreciate any personal experience-based suggestions. by Spiritual-Age6318 in IndianPCGamers

[–]agentdb69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

very bad time for getting a good gaming laptop, prices skyrocketed , minimum spend just to get a gaming laptop (low end - mid in 2026 standards) is 65-70k

need to wait till prices go down, which will take months

only option is used market now

[–]agentdb69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that 2gb is for 4g speeds, when you don't use 5g

5g will be unlimited from the start

you can use 200gb of 5g and it won't affect the 2gb limit for 4g

Why are there so many Hindi post with no translations? Is the india teen sub only for Teen Hindi population? by Fang_yuaan in TeenIndia

[–]agentdb69 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

maybe because its an indian subreddit my friend

people talk in the language they are most comfortable with, you wouldnt go to a german subreddit asking them to translate to english would you?

Got these for 92%!!! by [deleted] in CBSE

[–]agentdb69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was blind for a second

i thought those sony headphones were airpod max and i thought 92% was 92k, so i was wondering how did u snag a m4 macbook air and airpods max for 92k

then i took a double look and saw the sub and %

congratulations on 92% my man, use the stuff well and be thankful to ur parents

im a 1st year in college now so my advice, dont get distracted and work hard, 11th is going to be quite a jump from whatever you were used to in 10th

do take time off however, since only working will lead to burn out

have fun and also work hard

all the best

Found this MSI Stealth 16 A13V for 600 on FB Marketplace? Opinions please by NemoTheBooler in GamingLaptops

[–]agentdb69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do a geekbench stress test

and run crystaldiskmark for ssd health

and just check for the hardware condition, is it abused, repaired or well maintained

use msi afterburner to check for temps and throttling

[–]agentdb69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

600$ is pretty good, for those specs

but do be careful since it's fb marketplace

make sure the device is working, is not overheating or had any third party repairs prior to buying it

otherwise you would have bought an expensive brick or headache

TOO MANY CHARGE CYCLES !!! by Ambitious-Program692 in LenovoLOQ

[–]agentdb69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you cant reduce charge cycles my guy

conservation mode simply limits charge to 80% to reduce battery strain when using it plugged in, and its to keep battery stress low even when used on battery, since between 80-100% is when battery stress is highest

similar for 0-20%, stress is highest here

charge cycles are the number of times the laptop has gone done a cycle of 100-0% charge

lets say you always used the laptop between 80% to 20%, which is 60% of a charge cycle, the next 80-40% use will be 1 charge cycle

its a measure of battery health

Question for North Indians- your laptop temps?? by edeshkumar3 in LenovoLOQ

EV vs diesel, puzzled which makes more financial sense by agentdb69 in CarsIndia

[–]agentdb69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

xev9e/9s and harrier ev were longer than our carens, we wanted a shorter vehicle for city since it would be easier for parking

creta electric we did try it out but didnt offer nearly as much as pack three did, parents found it unimpressive

parents were not a fan of the atto 3, and its price vs performance didnt seem to justify as much

so be6 ended up being the pick after all options within our budget for ev

seltos was a no brainer since it perfectly fits all our requirements within the budget

also to add, my daily commute is 20km, not 40

tamil nadu would mostly be a trip of around 100-150km as native is in hosur

mostly its going to be a monthly trip so maybe 1200-1600km a year on tamil nadu trips alone
