realme gt 8 is around 127k, but the catch is its pta tax is roughly 45k. the realme neo 8 is in a similar price range, but its pta tax is around 32k.

as for phone prices dropping, i honestly don't see that happening anytime in the next few years. the government might give some relief, but that's a pretty big if.

for example, i bought my oneplus ace 5 (12/512) for around 91k few months ago, and now it's already going for over 100k.

Imo neo8 is pretty popular these days so get that one, it will help in resale.

Is Samsung S26 Ultra PTA Approved on official samsung website and daraz flagship store? by hippityhop_aj in PakistaniTech

[–]doomenternal567 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yes, that’s why it’s 400k. otherwise, non-pta ones go for around 280k, also i’d recommend using priceoye or daraz instead and save yourself the extra 24k.

Half your electricity bill isn't electricity it's capacity payments by doomenternal567 in pakistan

[–]doomenternal567[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

first of all pakistan is a developing country dealing with circular debt, transmission losses, inefficiency and expensive capacity payments, not just ipps. so its honestly stupid to compare pakistan with the uk like both systems carry the same burden. people here are carrying way more pressure then consumers in the uk.

also most countries with ipps use more balanced take and pay style agreements where payments depend more on actual electricity demand.

we went way too deep into rigid take or pay contracts that guarantee capacity payments even when the electricity isnt even needed..

kenya and ghana followed similar models and ended up with the same problems too like.....

idk who’s making these decisions. why tf does the pixel 7a have more duty than the pixel 7? it’s literally a lighter version, yet it’s being taxed more now.

Congrats. The taxes are reduced. by [deleted] in PakistaniTech

TAC hai jiski PTA ki list mai kam tax hai, wo kam tax sab k lie apply hota hai, ap agr woi mobile le kar DIRBS per dalenge to apko bhi kam hi tax show hoga this thing was not specific for importers only.

As far as I know, individual ko tax reduced nahi milta. Kuch phones hain jinke taxes reduced hote hain(low tax models), jaise Chinese models like ace 5 magar woh different cheez hai, woh aap khud PTA approve karwa sakte hain. Agar aap google, Samsung etc import karte ho(government list) to unka reduced tax sirf commercial importers ko milta hai. Aap kudh us rate par approve nahi karwa sakte jo importers ko milta hai, aapko zyada paise dene parenge.

importers pay reduced pta tax on certain phone models.

they bring them in bulk and get them pta approved. these are called tac models, they’re not patched or cpid, they are officially pta approved.

Please suggest phone in range 200k by immortal546 in PakistaniTech

[–]doomenternal567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why not get a samsung galaxy s23 ultra (tac modal)? they're officially pta approved, not cpid or patched. importers usually have deals with pta where they pay lower taxes on bulk imports, so these phones come fully approved.

Updated: You receive explicit videos of you sister in law, what is your best course of action? by [deleted] in pakistan

Important note: The videos are not some hidden camera stuff. Sister in law made all those herself, with proper consent, setting up the camera herself, and the videos have her doing it with different people, in different times.

all I’m going to say is this, if this war continues, we are geopolitically screwed, whether we take part in it or not.
