Free OndeDrive storage is limited now

POV: Why curtailing Free OneDrive storage is a dumb move by Microsoft


Onedrive

When Microsoft infamously announced shrinking of Free OneDrive storage to 5 GB for normal users it was naturally met with heavy derision and outrage. While this decision is surprisingly dumb at Microsoft’s end given every other competitor of Microsoft’s size and influence is providing more cloud storage as a bonus to lure more and more users to their Eco-system, the reasons cited behind this decision are dumber. Have a look at why of this decision.
We’re making changes to OneDrive storage plans for consumers and are committed to making this transition as smooth as possible.

Since we started to roll out unlimited cloud storage to Office 365 consumer subscribers, a small number of users backed up numerous PCs and stored entire movie collections and DVR recordings. In some instances, this exceeded 75 TB per user or 14,000 times the average. Instead of focusing on extreme backup scenarios, we want to remain focused on delivering high-value productivity and collaboration experiences that benefit the majority of OneDrive users.
So, while offering unlimited storage may haven’t been the wisest of decisions in the first place, now Microsoft is citing misuse of its unlimited storage offer as the reason behind curtailing of 15 GB storage to 5 GB. It doesn’t sum up at all. If you are not happy with the misuse of unlimited storage offers do away with those but how can it be compensated by taking away 10 GB free storage from loyal customers.

And this kind of move at a time when Microsoft is going to release its flagship devices Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL soon. Not so smart after all, Microsoft!! It is not loyalty-inducing and looks like an unnecessary decision coming at most inappropriate time.

iQOO z3 Build Quality & Durability Test

By
iQOO Z3 is the new budget 5G smartphone launched in India. The base variant of the phone can be purchased under 20,000 Rs. That makes it a very attractive offer. We will talk about the full review some other day, but today we will mainly focus on " Build Quality " of the device.  You can skip reading and watch the dull durability test of iQOO Z3 on our YouTube channel. Construction & Material Used:-  Lets start of with the material used. The phone is made using polycarbonate made rear panel and frame. Which isn't quite surprising in 2021, as most of the brands are following similar pattern to provide more specs. Do you remember Redmi K20 ? It was priced effectively under 20,000 and has a solid glass and metal combination. Coming back to iQOO Z3. Display:- The phone has 6.58 inches IPS LCD panel. Speaking about the display protection used company hasn't mentioned during product launch. We looked on Corning database but couldn't find the Z3 mentioned anywhere. ...

Nothing Phone 2: There's something in marketing gimmick

By
Nothing Phone 2 Squabble: Nothing priced its first phone (Nothing Phone) at 32,000 on July 12, 2022. The phone was distinct because to its glyph light feature and distinctive operating system. Nothing has also developed Nothing EAR (TWS), a Landon-based firm that has sold over 1 million units worldwide as of the end of 2022. Here is our whole Nothing Phone 2 review. Carl Pei, CEO of Nothing Nothing Technology Limited (stylized as NOTHING), has introduced Nothing Phone 2, and people are discussing his marketing techniques rather than his products. They implement a twofold embargo for artists; it appears that they are encouraging influencers to engage in dark marketing. Mr. Rakesh, alias Gyan Therapy, made a video opposing the embargo while everyone else was busy fluffing it.  So, following the contentious embargo, I've discovered two major reasons to avoid Nothing Phone 2: 1. Expensive Pricing: The Nothing Phone 2 costs roughly 45,000 INR, which is 5,000 INR higher than the Oneplus ...
