Is it worth buying Google Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P in 2017 over Google Pixel ?

Google Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P have been out for a while now. You can still buy these online in India on Flipkart, Amazon.in etc. However, the latest smartphone from Google is not a Nexus device, instead it is Google Pixel ( and Pixel XL )  and are priced much higher around 57K. So it worth to buy a Nexus 5X or 6P in 2017 ? If you are getting these old Nexus devices made by LG and Huawei for a cheap offer price, i would say these are still one of the best Android smartphones you can buy today. Nexus 5X is powered by Snapdragon 805 processor while 6P is powered by more powerful Snapdragn 810 processor. Both these processors are quite capable, and you would hardly see any lags during day to day normal usage. The reason why i think this is still a great device to buy in 2017 is the camera. Thanks to Google's HDR+ camera on these, the images coming out of these in good lighting conditions are amazing. Even in low light, the noise levels are well controlled. Both 5X and 6P fea

Sony Alpha A6000, A6300 or A6500 ? Which one to buy ?

Currently Sony has 3 cameras in Alpha 6000 series - A6000, A6300 and A6500. All these are mirrorless, compact APS-C size cameras and are almost identical in size. Sony A6000 is the oldest one of the bunch. Newer A6300 and A6500 have a lot in common. So which one to buy ? Image quality wise all these variants have similar output. A6300 and A6500 have same identical image sensors. The image quality is slightly better than the older A6000.  Both A6300 and A6500 can shoot 4K videos. A6000 can only do 1080P videos. Sony A6300 has heating issues when recording long 4K videos. Sony has fixed that issue heating issue with A6500. Another advantage A6500 has over A6300 is the 5 axis image stabilization built in to the body. So if you are looking for a great compact camera for Photography, and hardly is gonna shoot 4K videos, then Sony A6000 for much lesser price is the best option. A6000L with 16-50mm lens kit will cost you around Rs 44K now in India ( check here : Amazon.in | Flip

Sony Alpha A9, Who is it for ? Is it better than A7R Mark 2 ?

Sony has launched the much awaited Alpha A9 - their first high end Full frame mirrorless camera targeted at Sports and Journalist photography. This is a very fast camera and can do 20fps continuous blackout free shooting with focus tracking which is going to be insanely useful in sports photography. It also offers silent shutter mode, which would come in handy when shooting the start of a sprint race or to take some candid shots without the subject ever noticing.  So is this better than Sony A7R Mark 2 ? Answer is Yes and No. If you are a landscape photographer or take portraits, and you have a lot of time to focus, adjust and refocus, A7R Mark 2 is still the one you should buy. Sony A9 is exclusively for those who want that 20fps fast shooting, silent shutter and a great buffer thanks to a new sensor technology. A7R Mark 2 has almost the Double resolution and is sharper, and performs better in low light high ISO situations. However, there is one big feature A9 has, which wou
