I am sourcing it for using it with my XM4 3 hours ago, SuperT said: I don't think that cable will work for the xm4 as the sony has a 3.5 mm jack and not a 2.5 mm jack if I am not mistaken. The V-Moda is the best in the business with onboard controls and one of the best mics. 6 hours ago, Mr. Comingle said: The cable I linked can probably be used with a xm4 as well assuming it's a standard 2.5 mm port. The mic quality is pretty good on it. The mic on Dualsense is good enough for most people Unless you are recording some pro stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only when the mic is being used or while it’s turned on? Cos I’ve never explicitly turned it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NitroNeo Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 So i got frustrated and checked where semiconductors are used, and here is what came up on google Quote CPUs that operate personal computers are also made with semiconductors. Many digital consumer products in everyday life such as mobile phones / smartphones, digital cameras, televisions, washing machines, refrigerators and LED bulbs also use semiconductors. So why do we see abundance of stocks of televisions, washing machines, refrigerators and LED bulbs, yet we are having trouble with PS5, series x, they still have stocks of series s, ps4 newly manufactured, LG, samsung tvs were hot in stocks during diwali and even during BF, thanksgiving worldwide. Is this just the monopoly to cash in on gamers or other devices which are made rarer so that people known to spend can spend outrageous amounts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, even if somehow the bill passes in the US, it will never happen it India. Retailers won't bother, simply coz units go off the shelves. Also, it's a luxury item. Doubt it'll ever even be in govts radar. Edited December 1, 2021 by gecko89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the buyers are willing to pay more, it's on them. What's unfair is, all buyers do not get an equal chance to buy due to bots and scripts. E-Com sites should do better to combat these auto buying bots and provide an equal chance for all to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this just the monopoly to cash in on gamers or other devices which are made rarer so that people known to spend can spend outrageous amounts In simplistic terms - Different kinds of specialized semiconductors. There are only limited number of high expertise foundries producing AMD or Intel chips. Same for chips used in cars (also because car manufacturers decreased their semiconductor orders by huge amounts last year since they did not expect a rebound so soon, but here we are), and other similar setups. What you see in LEDs or refridgerator must be mass produced by several factories, not needing specialized setups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think only TSMC make them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scuderiaT1fos1 Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 13 hours ago, Mr. Comingle said: That and official licensed retailers selling at a premium. Like there is literally no way of buying these things at mrp without using some bot on amazon or fk. That PPGC c*** is trying to chipkao fifa 22 and cricket 22 for full price. Its literally illegal for retailers to sell above MRP but here we are. Bangalore gamers should band together and beat some sense into the him. I'll be up for travelling there to take part. These so called small time retailers don't deserve to have a livelihood if this is how they earn it. The truth is if he started selling only the console at 50k , it would anyways be sold at 60-65k premium later. Gets difficult to differentiate between Gamers who intend to use the console or re-sell. A few blocks from my place a generic mobile store has stocks from FK , AZ & croma , and selling at 60-65 k a piece. I hope the stocks situation get better soon though.

A bit harsh, but this is pure capitalism. Do we hate it ? Yes. Is it illegal ? No. When people can defend Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos paying zero taxes by exploiting loopholes, this is a drop in the ocean. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scuderiaT1fos1 Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Selling above MRP and bundling are two different things. Selling Cricket & Fifa with the PS5 for (50K + 4.5K + 3k ) does not mean it is being sold above MRP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a country where policemen openly take bribes, we're talking about legalities of selling a luxury item above cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke of forming a group and delivering a beatdown which you thought was harsh. If the only way you can make money is by doing scummy sh*t, then you are a pathetic loser. You don't even have to go to the police. Cases is consumer courts are easy to fight and often lean towards helping the consumers. As someone mentioned above, most places are mandatorily bundling games, not selling above MRP. And many such shops are authorised Sony dealers. PS is a small brand in India. Sony won't jeopardize their relations over such a small issue. Also, beating someone over price gouging a luxury item ? Come on dude. Harsh. Mob violence is never a good option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
