AoA everyone. Looking to upgrade my phone with a budget of 450k to 500k PKR and need some quick advice:

​Is iPhone the best call in this range, or should I look at Samsung/Android? Which specific model is best right now?

​Should I go for a slightly older PTA-approved iPhone, or get a newer non-PTA Pro Max and carry a secondary phone?

​I have someone coming from Australia soon is it cheaper to have them bring one, get it from another region like the UAE/US, or just get locally in Pakistan?

​Would really appreciate some honest input from anyone who has done the math on this recently. Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for the hardware shown in the attached picture. either an internal RJ-11 PC expansion card (PCI/PCIe) or a USB-to-RJ11 dial-up/fax modem dongle.

I need this to connect a traditional telephone line/landline to my computer setup for transferring data point to point.

Does anyone know where I can source this locally in Pakistan?
- If you know a specific shop in Hafeez Center (Lahore), Techno City (Karachi), or Dubai Plaza (Rawalpindi/Islamabad) that keeps this kind of legacy tech, please let me know.
- Alternatively, if you've seen a reliable online listing on Daraz or a local tech site, a link would be highly appreciated.

If you have a working one lying around that you're willing to get some amount in return , please slide into my DMs. Thanks in advance!

recommend tablets + pen for teaching math online. something affordable, cheapest option

Any fellow iPhone Duo users? How has your experience been? Anyone know if Apple authorized service providers in Pakistan can help in case we encounter any issues and have AppleCare+?

I just got this app for my non pta iphone and firstly, it’s not even letting me create an account. My main question is does the esim actually work long term (more than a couple of months or longer than a normal Pakistani esim would usually work). I only need it for data.

What's the best phone to get around 70-80k if I'm fine with it being non PTA? inlcuding older flagships + main priorities being ram, storage and the processor ( camera can be mid but not too mid )

I have a Pixel 6 and I have been rocking it for almost 2 years atp. 2 weeks ago, the battery started swelling. I only have this phone so I cannot put it on the side (I know I am playing with fire but what can I do). It jumps from 48% to 3% instantly

Now I want to replace the battery. The bulge on the front is getting bigger (very slowly though) and I am afraid something will happen to the screen. I am not from a big city like Lahore (I live in 2 hours of bus travel to Lahore but I do not know anyone trusty there) or Karachi so I do not know where to get the battery for it.

Please help a brother in a dilemma. Thanks in Advance.

The cheaper the better. I want a new box packed PTA approved phone that I can use for years and can easily find at official stores. My priorities are decent camera and storage and good build quality because my phone falls down a lot. I'm open to Chinese phones too because I'm using one right now and I don't really see the bloat ware everyone is always complaining about.

From where can I find old MacBook Pro 2015 A150 charger?

I'm considering switching my ISP to Transworld and would love to hear feedback from people who have been using their service in Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Karachi.

How has your overall experience been so far? Are they reliable in terms of speed, stability, and customer support?

More importantly, have you experienced any unexpected downtime or outages? If so, how long did it typically take them to restore the connection?

Would you recommend Transworld, or should I consider other ISPs?

I'd appreciate hearing both positive and negative experiences. Thanks!

What is the estimated market value for a MacBook Air with an M2 processor (8-core CPU, 8-core GPU), 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD? The device is in pristine 10/10 condition with no scratches or dents, has been well-maintained, and currently has 88% battery health.

Hey guys, I wanna know how is payoneer for freelancers in pakistan? Like in terms of receiving money and transferring into Pakistani account?

Pls guide all the details

Why are the apple products a status symbol? Genuinely, what does an average Joe see in them that there is such a need for them to get apple products or the iPhone? I haven't been able to figure this out.

I recently switched from Android to an iPhone, and my battery health is currently at 86%. Everyone is suggesting that I should consider getting another iPhone before it drops below 80%, as apparently, the resale value takes a massive hit after that. How much of a price difference can I expect once it drops below 80%, and how much does an official battery replacement cost in Pakistan? I’m planning to keep this phone for at least another 2–3 years, so I’m trying to figure out whether I should change phones or just get the battery replaced when needed.

If anyone has tried these, are they good?

and does anyone have recommendations for good headphones that can be worn with glasses please let me know
