My gripes with Rift Apart
Consider this a review of Rift Apart (PC ver). After playing this game twice on Renegade Legend, I have... opinions. Being a fan of the franchise since Going Command/Locked & Loaded, I admittedly have some strong biases for both the PS2 saga and the Future Trilogy for various reasons. But before I go lambasting this entry into the franchise, a TLDR summary;
Pros:
The game is pretty and well executed on a technical level (for the most part).
The platforming and movement is refined and a step up from previous titles.
Cons:
Quite literally almost everything else.
Also has a propensity for crashing (both freezing and blue screen of death).
Movement & Platforming
One of the core aspects of RaC that I am happy RA got right. The movement is buttery smooth and chain daisying from one platform to the next using wall runs, dashes and rift pulls is excellently designed. The addition of the dash function adds an extra dodge ability that was absent in previous entries although granted we can still use the age-old side jumping while aiming/shooting.
I do wish however that the hoverboots were more integrated into the platforming since most of the time you only ever need it for super long leaps or the timed step puzzles. Something like the jump pads from ACIT would be nice to see paired with the new wall run and dash mechanic. You hardly need to use it outside of Savali and Torren IV and the last part of the Nef Mech fight.
What I wished they truncated however was the glide mechanic the hoverboots had. Given that the hoverboots could both glide and make you go fast, it makes this better than whatever Clank could possibly offer. @erablisme has done a wonderful breakdown on this matter (see here), but essentially having the hoverboots be an upgrade of both the charge boots and fulfilling Clank’s contribution to Ratchet’s mobility (gliding) renders Clank, from a gameplay standpoint, moot. It renders Clank into nothing more than a glorified backpack/exposition device, which beats the entire purpose of the franchise’s own title.
Gameplay
Weapons
The arsenal, while fun to use, is too bloated. A lot of the guns overlap in functionality:
Shotguns: Enforcer, Pixelizer, Void Repulser
Seeker/Turret weapons: Agents of Doom, Bombardier, Mr Fungi
Crowd Control: Topiary Sprinkler, Cold Snap
Grenades: Shatterbomb, Bouncer
Rapid fire: Burst Pistol, Blackhole Storm
Lock-on weapons: Drillhound, Richochet, Buzzsaw, Lightning Rod
Heavy hitter: RYNO, Negatron Collider, Warmonger
Do we really need multiple weapons that do the same thing just with different particle effects?
The level up mechanic, while a staple of RaC games, is frankly outdated by this point and actively hinders the game. If anything, it punishes players for sticking to guns they enjoy once they hit max level. It makes the motivator for using weapons not be its function but rather to chase that arbitrary level cap. Plus, there’s no telling what the level up actually did for a weapon aside from damage buffs.
It’s not like they couldn’t do away with this feature, Deadlocked made the guns increase so many levels it frankly deemphasises them in favour of choosing the best weapon for any given scenario, ItN decreased the max level to 3 (6 on challenge) in favour of more meaningful weapon upgrades, and ACiT had the Constructo weapons and mods (which Deadlocked also had called Omega Mods) that incentivises experimentation on what combos worked best while allowing you to spice things up post max level. Why not tie weapon upgrades to collectibles? They already had the Raritanium collection, sprinkling effect mods for weapons throughout the locations shouldn’t be too difficult. They already did this for the armour system, so why not do it for the weapons too? Heck, why not make all the weapons customisable like the Constructo weapons? It would solve the bloated arsenal problem.
Enemy Design
The enemy design in this game just isn’t great. While it makes sense considering you’re fighting an army so it’s obvious they’re gonna have standardised units, you would think they would spice up their combat stratagem when they know they couldn’t beat our protagonists by throwing the same old shtick over and over. Instead, we keep having to fight the same miniboss Juggernaut over and over and over again. Sometimes there’s two of them! Make it three during the Juice fight!
It’s not a problem with just the Nefarious troopers, it’s an issue across multiple factions too. Across all three factions (Space Pirates, Goons & Nef’s army), they all follow the same formula;
the one with the gun: Pirate Corsair, Goon, Nef Lasertrooper
the one that does melee: Space Pirate & Shield Pirate, Goon Rusher & Undead Goon, Nef Slugger
the tiny short range/melee swarmer: Cutlassies, Robomutt, Nef Trooper
the vehicle one: Goon Dropship, Nef Dropship
the flying one: Zoom Goon, Nef Sniperbot & Blitztrooper & Sniperbot
the heavy flying one: Vroom Goon, Nef Peacekeeper
the rinse repeat miniboss: Pirate Marauder, Nef Juggernaut
While stylistically different, they don’t differ much from how they shoot/do damage at you. It would have been great if they did some things different from one another. Some really simple fixes;
While I think giving shields to pirates makes little sense, it is some variety at least. Expand on that. Maybe make the Goon Rusher actually rush towards you faster than the others, or make the Nefarious Slugger can do 360 attacks or have more range since it’s a) a robot, and b) basically has the Scorpion Flail for arms.
Make the Vroom Goons try to ram you instead of just having to avoid the taser things it shoots cuz that’s the exact same thing that the Nefarious Sniperbot does since all you need to do to avoid both attacks is sidestepping it.
Make the Pirate Corsair shoot high damage while the standard Goon does horizontal strafing rapid fire compared to the Nef Trooper’s vertical one
Make the Zoom Goons dodge your attacks, maybe give it a ground pound that opens it up to attack so it's at least somewhat different from the Nef Peacekeeper other than being a slightly squishier variant.
For a game so pretty it is bizarre they couldn’t put more effort into gameplay itself. The repeating minibosses get stale very quickly since once you’ve figured out a tactic that worked, it is rinse and repeat across the whole game.
Two Protagonists, Same Shtick
The gameplay doesn’t differentiate itself between Ratchet and Rivet. They play the exact same way, with the exact same arsenal, and the exact same progression. What is the point of having separate playable protagonists if they’re just gonna end up the same? You could replace Rivet with Ratchet and vice versa for 90% of the game and nothing would change. It would be something if they had separate weapons or separate movement gimmicks that make them distinct, but we didn’t get that for some reason.
Character Issues
The character writing is just abysmal, even when compared to the Future trilogy. While the Future trilogy (and by extension A4O, FFA and ItN) had plenty, and I mean plenty, of plotholes from a worldbuilding standpoint, the character writing was solid and fairly consistent. I cannot say the same for RA. Some examples;
Ratchet(?) & Clank(?)
I can hardly recognise Ratchet as the same character we had over the PS2 and PS3 instalments. He feels more like the 2016 reboot version just haphazardly retconned as the ItN version that RA was supposedly a continuation of. Being afraid of being a washed-up hero was Qwark’s thing, not Ratchet’s. Why would he even care? The man was downright tired of being a hero come ItN. And why is he even worried about meeting the Lombaxes? He saved Polaris multiple times and beat Tachyon, y’know, the reason why they left in the first place? The reason he gave up searching for the Lombaxes was because he had more going on with Talwyn and was assured the Lombaxes would do just fine without him. Why the sudden change of reason? What, is acknowledging Talwyn one too many female characters for Insomniac?
And why would Clank, despite knowing Ratchet not wanting to pursue the Lombaxes, go out of his way to make a whole ass parade about the Dimensionator? If he was just trying to cheer Ratchet up from his fear of being a washed-up hero (which, again, made no sense for his character) he would have just done the parade and given him the Dimensionator in private. The entire premise of Rift Apart hinges on the fact that Clank decides to give Ratchet what can be considered as a WMD since the Lombaxes used the Dimensionator to get rid of the Cragmites in an open public setting. Had he not done this, had he not told Qwark he wanted to surprise Ratchet, Nefarious probably wouldn’t have found out about the new Dimensionator, and the entire game wouldn’t have happened.
Another gripe I have with how Clank was handled was that his Zoni heritage was conveniently forgotten about. They could have tied the Zoni more deeply into the mysticism of the RaC universe and be the reason why he was able to fix the dimensional anomalies, but instead it was tied to Gary and... the Lombaxes. Huh.
Rivet, or as I like to call her, “Furbait”
There is so much missed potential with Rivet. Where to start? Instead of a grizzled, closed-off survivor of a robot dystopia, we just get miss middle-of-the-road, clearly made for pandering, furbait. Design wise, she would have been perfectly serviceable had this NOT been a robot dystopia. The only physical giveaway to show that she was a survivor/rebel fighter was her arm. It is the only thing that shows she’s a rebel fighter survivor. Her suit is well made, her eyelashes are on fleek, her hair is silky smooth, her tail is all fluffy and clean. Nothing about her says she was a survivor. No scars, no dirt, nothing other than the obvious robot arm. It is lazy. Lazy and stupid.
Her personality doesn’t make sense for the universe she supposedly inhabits either. Heck, no one in this franchise fits well in this robot dystopia, tbh. She distrusts robots due to past experience, yet is chummy with both Clank and Kit (and by some extension, the Zurkons & Pierre) relatively quickly. For someone who should have gone through a lot of adversity, she hardly acts like it. She’s confident, has a lot of friends, and whatever negative aspect she does have (which is just distrust instead of the obvious robot racist she should have been) that would have given her an opportunity to grow as a character is watered down and conveniently forgotten, so she hardly grows as a character, if any.
Ultimately, Rivet boils down to being “What if Ratchet, but a girl?”. There’s work put into trying to make her her own thing, but there’s also the narrative yanking her by the collar to be Ratchet’s other self. She’s the last Lombax in her dimension, she also wonders where the Lombaxes went, and she’s trying to be a hero. At that point, how is she any different than Ratchet? They don’t even differ much personality wise for a version of Ratchet who never met her Clank, so to speak. One would think she would be the spunky RaC1 Ratchet since it was meeting Clank that got Ratchet to grow as a person. Instead she’s just your lovely neighbourhood Rivet, friend to all except robots except the ones she meets I guess. What is the point of having two main characters if they are just gonna end up the same?
Kit
While arguably the better other of the new duo, she has issues as well in the writing department. She had the most growth out of our titular cast, however how she got there is ramshackled at best.
In comparison to Clank, he was a defective warbot, which made sense why he was small. Kit on the other hand was tailor made by the supposedly competent Emperor Nefarious, so why does she have a cutesy mode? Why does she even have a character crisis from hurting Rivet, for that matter? Stopping rebels was what she was designed to do, and she suddenly gained a conscience from doing her job? If Kit is so effective at what she did, why did Emp Nef stop at making just one of her? Shouldn’t there be multiple Kit models roaming about? She could mow down hordes of newer Nefarious Troopers and Juggernauts, so why didn’t Emp Nef expand on that?
These inconsistencies make Kit as a character start falling apart as soon as you give it more scrutiny than a surface level glance. The writers could have easily solved these issues by just alluding that she might have been an outdated model, or was damaged and abandoned on Savali where Gary and the monks fixed her up and gave her a new purpose — protecting the Archives. Instead of an exterminator, she became a guardian. They could have taught her how to be more “human�� as it were, too, which would tie up nicely to why she regrets her actions in her previous line of work. Instead, they went with the “Oh no, what have I done, I did my job and injured a trespasser, now I’m gonna be a recluse on Savali” route.
She doesn’t gel well with Rivet either because the only one actively having something to overcome was Kit. Had Rivet been written better (having to overcome her prejudices, letting go of her past trauma, solving her trust issues) it could work with Kit growing out of her self doubt and regrets, but it just isn’t there. Plus, there weren't enough scenes of them together to build towards that conflict resolution that would make their friendship more believable. She has more of a relationship with Ratchet than Rivet.
“EmPeRoR” Nefarious
He is boring. Simple as. There is no driving motivation to him other than “conquer everything”. We could have gotten an Ultron (which would make a perfectly sensible callback to the Biobliterator shtick our Nef pulled from UYA) but we just end up with a sassy English bastard with the personality of wet bread. There was no fun interplay between him and our Neffy, anything to make both their personalities shine as they work together or grind against each other, it just sucks.
The Plot(holes)
Imma just list it down.
How does a helmet clearly designed to fit a Lombax head is supposedly “one size fits all”?
How did the fish kid Rivet saved in the intro made it around Nef City in the first place if this was supposedly a robot dystopia that eradicated all squishies? What, was he just having a stroll, taking some fresh dystopian air? Could have made it that this was a fellow rebel she was tasked to save cuz he had some intel that he swiped and Rivet decided to use herself as bait to draw attention away from him so he could get the intel out of there, but no.
On that matter, why do planets like Savali and Torren IV still have organic inhabitants?
What was Skidd trying to achieve by hacking the propaganda blimp? This served no purpose at all narratively since it didn't even turn any robots against the Neffies.
Why was Skidd even in Nef City, for that matter? What was his original mission that he was going undercover for? Busting Rivet out of prison? Couldn’t be, since he made no mention of it.
Why did none of Emp Nef's cronies question our Nef just popping in despite looking clearly different? He’s a whole head shorter and the wrong colour. What, do they not have colour vision?
How did Emp Nef know about the existence of the dimensional map? He barely knew about the Dimensionator so how does that make sense?
If Ratchet already has hoverboots, why couldn’t he dash/sprint with it until he gets to Savali?
Where and when did Rivet get a rift tether?
Where and when did Rivet get a pair of hoverboots?
Wasn’t the Space Pirates/Decadroids designed by Tachyon? Why do they exist in this dimension? Why aren’t they allied with Emp Nef since they too are robots? None of this is explained.
Where did the Lombaxes of Rivet’s dimension disappear to? Did they have a Tachyon-like threat in this dimension too? Did Emp Nef wipe them out? Don’t know, and the game doesn’t bother explaining it cuz Rivet is supposed to be girl Ratchet and nothing beyond that.
Why would Emperor Nefarious announce for the whole galaxy to see where he was going during the finale? Did he lose that much intelligence in the short timeframe we’ve known him? This is the guy who conquered the galaxy?
Why would he leave a portal for our protagonists to conveniently follow him through?
Where did that telekinetic abilities of him suddenly disappear to?
Where was this dimension’s Lawrence counterpart? That stupid little secretary is so dumb as to not recognise her own boss she couldn’t possibly be the Lawrence replacement.
Environmental Storytelling & Worldbuilding
Environmental storytelling & worldbuilding has never really been Insomniac’s strong suit. RA is pretty and all, but aside from Blizar Prime, none of the other locales did anything different from Ratchet’s dimension. If this was supposed to be a galaxy where Emp Nef has conquered it all, you would think that there’d be more neon, more cyberpunk, more Emp Nef aesthetic, more robots flying about. Instead, we just got the same thing we had from Ratchet’s dimension, just in prettier graphics. It is set dressing with no story to tell. It's a puddle pretending it was an ocean. While I appreciate seeing the graphical glow up the locations got, it’s a missed opportunity to actually show the impact Emp Nef had.
Take Nefarious City for example;
How was Ratchet able to move around Nef City without raising alarms? This negates the entire point of Rivet needing a robot disguise in the first place.
Why does a static statue in the middle of a city have a terminal that activates a platform that leads to Emp Nef's office in the first place?
On that note, why is an EMPEROR working from an office? Where’s the throne? The grand palace and palisades? The royal guards? If he’s an authoritarian that likes to take control, where’s the giant screen with a hundred monitors that watch every inch of Nef City?
Why does Emp Nef have a tiny four seater shuttle? If he needed to commute planet-side, wouldn’t he have something more posh? More grand? A Rolls Royce of shuttles instead of what can be considered a slightly pricier but still shitty Tesla model? They could have made Ratchet or Rivet have to steal a fighter jet and that would make infinitely more sense than what we got.
The same can be said with the inhabitants of this universe. They only exist to serve as plot devices or to point the protagonists to the next goal rather than actual people. There is no culture, no differing beliefs, nothing to tell you about what they are about or what they do. If all they exist to do is to be exposition devices/mission pointers, what was the point of even making distinct characters? Then again, the Future trilogy suffered the same problem with environmental characters being practically stand-in cardboards so points for consistency, I guess.
Verdict
Essentially, Rift Apart is a creatively bankrupt, designed-by-committee tech demo for Sony Playstation. What used to be a franchise that does satirical commentary on capitalism that later tried to delve into narrative/character driven sci-fi story, has ended up being the most capitalistic-designed entry imaginable. Which is unfortunate because I want to like this game. God, do I want to like it.
Did I enjoy playing it? When it works and doesn't crash on me, sure.
Do I like it enough as an entry to the franchise though? No, no I don't. The gameplay hardly expanded on the RaC formula, and the narrative just killed it for me.
But of course, that's just me. If you enjoyed RA, more power to ya. If you told me to play it again, I'll probably do it. It's just not for me for the long run.

From Studio to Spotify: A Guide to Uploading Your Songs
Creating music is a deeply personal and rewarding process, but ensuring it reaches the right audience is equally important. For many artists, Spotify is a go-to platform for sharing their work with a global audience. Uploading your songs to Spotify may seem daunting at first, but with the right steps and tools, you can make the process smooth and efficient. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to upload your songs to Spotify while incorporating elements of music promotion, understanding how artists are paid on Spotify, and strategies to earn money through music.
Step 1: Create Your Song
Before your music reaches Spotify, it starts with the creation process. If you’re wondering how to make your own song, here’s a quick breakdown of the steps:
Write Your Song Begin with a compelling idea or melody. Focus on crafting lyrics, developing chord progressions, and creating a structure that resonates with listeners.
Produce and Record Use tools like Logic Pro, GarageBand, or FL Studio to produce your track. Invest in a quality microphone, audio interface, and headphones for a professional recording. If you’re new to production, consider collaborating with a producer or using online tutorials to refine your sound.
Mix and Master Your Track Once recorded, your song needs to be mixed and mastered to achieve industry-standard sound quality. Professional mixing ensures all instruments and vocals are balanced, while mastering optimizes the track for various platforms, including Spotify.
Step 2: Choose a Distributor
Spotify doesn’t allow direct uploads from artists; instead, you’ll need a third-party distributor. These companies act as intermediaries, uploading your music to Spotify and other platforms while ensuring you get paid. Popular distributors include:
DistroKid
TuneCore
CD Baby
Amuse (offers free distribution plans)
When selecting a distributor, pay attention to fees, payout rates, and additional features like playlist pitching or royalty splits.
Step 3: Prepare Your Track for Upload
Before uploading your song, ensure you have the following essentials:
Audio File Save your song in a high-quality WAV format (16-bit or 24-bit) to meet Spotify’s standards.
Metadata This includes your artist name, song title, album name, and release date. Accurate metadata ensures your track appears correctly on Spotify.
Cover Art Create eye-catching artwork that aligns with your brand. Spotify requires a square image (3000x3000 pixels) in JPEG or PNG format.
Step 4: Upload Your Song
Once your track and metadata are ready, log in to your distributor's platform and follow these steps:
Select Your Release Type Choose whether your upload is a single, EP, or album.
Add Metadata Enter all necessary information, including genre, language, and credits.
Set the Release Date Plan your release strategically. A minimum lead time of two weeks is recommended to allow for proper music promotion and submission to Spotify playlists.
Distribute to Spotify Confirm Spotify as one of your target platforms and complete the upload process. Your distributor will handle the rest.
Step 5: Leverage Spotify for Artists
Once your song is live, claim your Spotify for Artists profile. This tool provides valuable analytics, allowing you to track performance and engage with listeners. Here’s how you can use it:
Submit Your Track for Playlists Spotify curators review submissions for playlist inclusion. Being featured on a playlist can significantly boost your streams.
Optimize Your Profile Add a bio, photos, and links to social media or merchandise stores. A professional profile enhances your credibility.
Track Listener Data Use the analytics dashboard to understand your audience demographics and streaming trends.
Step 6: Promote Your Music
Uploading your song is just the beginning. To maximize your reach and revenue, focus on effective music promotion:
Social Media Marketing Share snippets of your song, behind-the-scenes content, or teasers on platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter. Engage your followers with countdowns or contests leading up to the release.
Collaborate with Influencers Partner with influencers or fellow musicians who can share your music with their audience.
Run Spotify Ads Spotify Ad Studio allows you to create audio or video ads to promote your music directly to Spotify listeners.
Engage Fans with Playlists Create and share themed playlists that include your song alongside popular tracks in your genre. Encourage your fans to do the same.
Step 7: Understand How Artists Are Paid on Spotify
One of the biggest questions for musicians is how are artists paid on Spotify? Spotify pays artists through a royalty system. Every time your song is streamed, you earn a share of the revenue generated by subscriptions and advertisements. Here’s what to know:
Payments are made to your distributor, who then transfers your earnings to you.
Royalties are divided based on the total number of streams across the platform, meaning your share depends on your song's performance compared to others.
While streaming income might seem small initially, building a strong audience can lead to significant earnings over time.
Step 8: Earn Money Through Music Beyond Streaming
Spotify streaming is just one way to earn money through music. Diversify your income with these strategies:
Merchandise Sell branded T-shirts, hats, or posters through your Spotify profile.
Live Performances Use your Spotify audience to promote live gigs or virtual concerts.
Sync Licensing License your music for use in films, TV shows, or commercials.
Crowdfunding Platforms like Patreon allow fans to support your work directly.
Uploading songs to Spotify is an essential step for any musician looking to share their work with the world. By focusing on creating high-quality music, leveraging Spotify’s tools, and integrating smart music promotion strategies, you can grow your audience and generate revenue. Whether you’re an independent artist or part of a band, following this guide will set you on the path to a successful music career.

10 Essential Tips Before You Buy Used Laptop
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/be096494540cf4a1e65b935f73da4db9/35ec8eaedb3535b9-2a/s540x810/7ba319c61fdef5414f70a93c17a095325935e8e5.jpg)
Buying a used laptop is a practical way to save money while meeting your computing needs. Whether you’re looking for a budget-friendly device, a powerful machine for work, or an affordable alternative to premium brands like Apple, knowing what to check before making a purchase is crucial. Pre-owned devices like refurbished laptops, renewed laptops, and second hand laptops offer excellent value, but selecting the right one requires careful consideration.
This guide covers 10 essential tips to help you buy used laptop with confidence, ensuring you get a reliable and high-performing device.
1. Determine Your Needs
Before searching for a used laptop, identify your specific requirements:
Basic Use: For browsing, email, and document editing, a low-spec laptop will suffice.
Professional Tasks: For multitasking, choose a laptop with at least 8GB RAM and an SSD.
Creative Work or Gaming: Look for high-performance options like Refurbished MacBook Air or Refurbished Apple Laptops with dedicated GPUs.
Defining your purpose helps narrow down your choices, ensuring you don’t overspend or compromise on necessary features.
2. Choose Between Refurbished and Second Hand
Understand the difference between refurbished laptops and second hand laptops:
Refurbished Laptops: Professionally inspected, repaired, and restored to like-new condition. Ideal for those seeking quality assurance.
Second Hand Laptops: Sold as-is by individual owners. Typically more affordable but less reliable.
Platforms like Retechie specialize in refurbished laptops in India, offering certified devices with warranties for added peace of mind.
3. Research Trusted Sellers
Where you buy your laptop matters. Reputable platforms like Retechie provide:
Certified refurbished laptops that meet performance standards.
Detailed product descriptions and specifications.
Warranty options and return policies.
Avoid unknown sellers or deals that seem too good to be true.
4. Check the Laptop’s Physical Condition
Inspect the laptop for visible damage or wear:
Screen: Ensure it’s free of cracks, scratches, or dead pixels.
Keyboard and Trackpad: Test for functionality and responsiveness.
Ports and Hinges: Verify all ports are functional and hinges are sturdy.
Even if you’re buying online, look for detailed photos and ask the seller for additional images if necessary.
5. Test the Battery Life
A laptop with poor battery performance can be frustrating. Ask the seller about:
Battery health and estimated runtime.
Whether the battery has been replaced during refurbishment.
Many renewed laptops come with new or reconditioned batteries, ensuring better longevity.
6. Review the Hardware Specifications
Ensure the laptop meets your performance needs:
Processor: Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 for general use; i7 or Ryzen 7 for heavy tasks.
RAM: At least 8GB for smooth multitasking.
Storage: Prefer SSD over HDD for faster performance.
Graphics Card: Essential for gaming or design work.
For Apple enthusiasts, Refurbished Apple Laptops like the MacBook Air or Pro offer excellent performance for professionals and creatives.
7. Test Software Functionality
Ensure the laptop comes with an updated operating system and licensed software:
Check that the operating system is genuine and pre-installed.
Test built-in software and drivers for compatibility.
Most refurbished laptops are updated during the refurbishment process, but it’s always good to confirm.
8. Inspect the Warranty and Return Policy
A warranty is critical when buying pre-owned devices:
Look for sellers offering at least a 6-month warranty on refurbished laptops.
Review the return policy to ensure you can exchange or return the device if needed.
Platforms like Retechie provide warranties and support, making them a reliable choice for used laptops in India.
9. Compare Prices
Before you buy a used laptop, compare prices across different sellers and platforms:
Consider the value added by warranties, certifications, and seller reputation.
Avoid extremely low prices, as they may indicate poor quality or hidden issues.
Platforms like Retechie offer competitive pricing while maintaining high-quality standards.
10. Perform a Performance Check
If possible, test the laptop’s performance:
Boot the laptop to check startup speed.
Open multiple applications to assess multitasking capabilities.
Test additional features like the webcam, speakers, and Wi-Fi connectivity.
For online purchases, rely on sellers who provide detailed performance reports or video demonstrations.

The Pixel 9 Is Google's Best Phone for Most People - Information Today Online https://www.merchant-business.com/the-pixel-9-is-googles-best-phone-for-most-people/?feed_id=201438&_unique_id=66e81ca34e13a #GLOBAL - BLOGGER BLOGGER We may earn a commission from links on this page.Google’s Pixel 9 line packed a lot of firsts when it launched in late August—including two size options and a foldable version—but those were mostly reserved for the Pro models. When it comes to the base phone, there’s not as much flash. But under the surface, it feels almost as good as its more expensive cousin. Thanks to a redesigned camera bar and some updated camera specs, this is Google’s best base model phone in a while, so neck-and-neck with the Pixel 9 Pro that I bet some less discerning eyes couldn’t tell the difference. Before shelling out $999 or more on the Pro, consider opting for the regular Pixel 9 instead. You might be surprised.A redesigned camera barThis year, most of the aesthetic changes have been reserved for the Pixel 9 Pro, which now comes in two sizes as well as a foldable version. But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing new on the standard Pixel 9.The most noticeable update is the redesigned camera bar, which Google also added to the Pro. Unlike previous models, the camera bar on the Pixel 9 doesn’t stretch across the whole width of the phone anymore, instead being sequestered to its own little oval. That doesn’t mean much from a functional standpoint, but it does make everything look just a little cleaner, if only because it’s a little smaller and more rounded. It’s also now a bit easier to hold the phone horizontally without accidentally touching your camera lens, too.Credit: Michelle EhrhardtOtherwise, the Pixel 9 still uses your typical “candy bar” format. There are no additional buttons, the corners are still rounded, and the dimensions and weight are the same as on the Pixel 8—6 x 2.8 x 0.3 inches, weighing 7 ounces. The speakers on the bottom of the phone have been consolidated into a single hole, but their capabilities remain the same. It’s a little disappointing that, like the Pixel 8 but not the 8a budget refresh, the back is still glossy here, meaning that it looks fancy but is prone to reflections and fingerprints. I tend to prefer matte finishes, and the 9 Pro is the only way to get one.Colors for the Pixel 9 include Peony (pink), wintergreen (light green), porcelain (white), and obsidian (black). It’s a shame not to see Bay Blue (light blue) returning from the 8 Pro and 8a, but this is still a more robust set of colors than the base Pixel 8 had at launch, so my fingers are crossed that we’ll see more throughout the year.Disappointing AI additionsGoogle’s Pixel phones are known for their exclusive software like Live Transcribe or Magic Editor, and this year, the company is especially generous by making its biggest additions accessible across Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold. I’ve already looked at these apps—Screenshots, Pixel Studio, and Gemini Live—while reviewing the Pixel 9 Pro, and they work just as well here.That said, I only really like one of them. Screenshots uses AI to add descriptions to screenshots on your phone, allowing you to quickly search through them like you would Google Images. It’s great for finding documents like concert tickets or boarding passes at a moment’s notice, and while the descriptions aren’t always strictly accurate, they usually have enough keywords in them to surface the pic you need towards the top of your results. My only issue is that this only applies to screenshots and not photos, although that’s promised to be coming down the line.There’s definitely a privacy concern here, especially as Screenshots can also read and summarize any text that might be in your captures, although a Google representative told me all the processing for Screenshots is done on-device. It’s just a simple, unobtrusive utility that doesn’t demand I change how I use my phone and does something I couldn’t before, making it my clear favorite despite its more humble nature.
Credit: Michelle EhrhardtA bit more flashy is Pixel Studio, essentially an AI image generator baked into your phone. Pixel Studio uses a combination of local and cloud AI models, and allows you to more easily edit and remix images generated by Gemini. Google suggests using it to design things like birthday party invites, since it’s currently unable to depict humans, even with simple requests like “a cashier at a grocery store.” Unfortunately, that means it’s pretty limited compared to competitors, but even that hasn’t stopped it from producing some unhinged results.Despite the inability to generate humans, Pixel Studio can generate copyrighted characters, and I was able to make some photos of Mickey Mouse in a number of compromising positions. Again, check my Pixel 9 Pro review for more details, but even weeks after launch, it’s clear there are still safeguards that need to be put in place, unless Google wants to go full Grok.Truthfully, once the novelty of putting cartoon characters in mature situations wears off, there’s not a lot I could see myself using Pixel Studio for: The more mundane use cases feel about as compelling as “make your own greeting card” software from the ‘90s. Gemini Live is also something I don’t see myself using often. It essentially takes Google’s Gemini chatbot and lets you interact with it over voice, with an AI-generated conversation partner in return. The baseline tech here is impressive—Gemini Live sounds friendly, and I was able to cut it off and change the subject often without issue. But the problem is that it still makes mistakes just as often as the regular Gemini chatbot.I had Gemini Live tell me to carry an umbrella in 80 degree weather, or tell me that Kamala Harris would be debating Tim Walz the night I wrote this review. As with most AI hallucinations, these statements were said with total confidence, making it hard to trust anything Gemini said. I was able to call out the app on hallucinations and get it to walk back mistakes, but if I did this too many times, it would just crash, making Gemini feel a bit like a frustrated child taking their ball and going home.Outside of Gemini Live, Google is also pushing Gemini more strongly across the Pixel 9 line, making it the default replacement for the Google Assistant. This is a mistake, flat out. Gemini can do some simple things like set timers or alarms, but as of yet, it’s still unable to perform other common tasks like setting reminders or turning on Live Captions—things Google Assistant does with ease.Beyond the new dedicated apps, Google’s existing features got a few AI upgrades this year, too. These are most prominent in the Photos app, where you’ll be able to access Add Me and Reimagine.I was looking forward to Add Me, which uses AI to stitch two photos together so nobody has to be left out of a shot. You just take a photo of your group, hand the phone off to someone else who was in that first group shot, and take a new photo with you in it. Then, the phone intelligently mixes the photos so you’re all there.Unfortunately, it didn’t really work out in practice, with all results looking noticeably altered. When my fiancé and I tried it, our heights in relation to each other were all wrong, the shadows and lighting didn’t look natural, and it was best for us not to stand close to each other, or else the feature might blend our bodies together while mixing the photos. It’s a cute demo, but not something I would use even for a casual social media post.Credit: Michelle EhrhardtReimagine is a bit of a touchier subject. Essentially, this allows you to use AI to generate fake imagery within your real-life photos. Like Pixel Studio, it attempts to introduce safeguards but still can’t catch everything. For instance, I was able to add realistic used needles to multiple photos without issue. You can imagine the problems that might cause for something like cyberbullying, should edited photos of a target be posted online or passed onto a less-than-discerning authority figure.
I’m not the first person to raise this issue, but as I’m posting this review a month after launch, it’s a shame that Google still hasn’t done anything about it.Unfortunately, while it’s nice to see Google’s new AI features generally available across all Pixel 9 models, they ultimately still feel like betas to me. That’s not a great sign about where Google’s Pixel software will head in the future, especially as it continues to explore sensitive subjects like AI imagery.Cameras that feel pro-levelI loved the Pixel 9 Pro’s camera setup, and the good news is that shots taken on the regular Pixel 9 look almost as good. That’s because these phones have the same wide and ultrawide sensors, so both standard shots and close ups will look identical between devices. Plus, no matter which phone you pick, they’ll rival shots taken on the iPhone 15 Pro. If that sounds too good to be true, the catch is that the Pixel 9 has no telephoto lens. Optical zoom maxes out at 2x, and software zoom won’t allow for anything more than 8x. Not that you’ll really want to go past that—photos start to look pretty muddy even before then.The front camera also tops out at 10.5 MP vs. the Pixel 9 Pro’s 42 MP, so selfies will look more detailed on the more expensive model.Here’s a few Pixel 9 shots taken at various times of day. Note that I’ve had to compress these for this webpage, and that night shots use the Pixel’s “Night Sight” feature to intelligently brighten the background.Credit: Michelle EhrhardtCredit: Michelle EhrhardtCredit: Michelle EhrhardtAnd here are some equivalent shots from my iPhone 15 Pro. Generally, it’s impressive to see a non-Pro phone hold its own against Apple’s premium cameras.Credit: Michelle EhrhardtCredit: Michelle EhrhardtCredit: Michelle EhrhardtUnfortunately, despite the camera’s power, the base Pixel 9 does not come with Pro camera controls in its menu, which continues a frustrating trend on Google’s part. This means you’re not able to turn on the 50 MP photo mode, which saves 50 MP jpegs to your phone, even though the camera has a 50 MP sensor. You can still capture RAW photos, so you still have a way to use your camera’s full power, but the RAW file format can be annoying for casual users. Most people are probably going to just keep taking 12 MP photos without even realizing their phone can do more. This will be great for their storage space, but Google has no excuse for limiting 50 MP photos to the Pro models when the base hardware is perfectly capable of them.Performance is still lackingPerformance on the base Pixel 9 should be about as good as the Pixel 9 Pro, as it has the same chip, the Google Tensor G4. It comes with less RAM, and didn’t always perform as well in my tests, but the Pixel 9 definitely felt like it kept up with the Pro in real world use—which is to say, it has some issues.In Geekbench 6, a synthetic benchmark for testing general performance across multiple different types of tasks, I got a score of 1,227 on single-core tasks and 3,172 on multi-core tasks, indicating that, at least on paper, this phone is highly CPU limited. By comparison, I got a score of 1,924/5,628 on the Pixel 9 Pro, and 2,938/7,250 on the iPhone 15 Pro. Curiously, my results were even below the Pixel 7’s.Granted, synthetic benchmarks aren’t always a great indicator of real-world use. To test actual, in-the-hands performance, I took the Pixel 9 into Genshin Impact, a graphically demanding open-world game. Here, I got results about on par with the Pixel 9 Pro, although I occasionally lagged a few frames behind it. I got between 50–60 fps on the game’s lowest settings, and about 40–55 fps on the highest settings, although numbers were more consistently high on the lower-end. I also wouldn’t recommend gaming at high settings for long, as the phone heats up pretty quickly under that kind of strain, eventually getting painful to the touch. It’s subjective, but for me, the heat seemed to be a bigger problem on the 9 than the Pro.While this phone
isn’t for gaming, my issues here don’t necessarily paint a kind picture for other high performance apps, like video editors. This problem isn’t new for the Pixel, since Google’s chips are designed to put Pixel software exclusives and AI first. For those, it works great, hitting a fine balance between performance and efficiency. But those who regularly stray outside of Google’s ecosystem will probably prefer a phone with a more jack-of-all-trades Qualcomm chip, like the Samsung Galaxy S24.Battery lifeI’m still wrapping up my battery testing on the Pixel 9, as I needed to restart it after a hiccup on my end. I’ll update this review with my own numbers shortly, but for now, Google promises a 24+ hour battery life under “median” conditions. A strong displayNot much has changed on the Pixel 9’s display over the Pixel 8’s. It’s still 6.3-inches long, still uses Google’s “Actua” screen tech (the company’s marketing term for a bright OLED), and still caps out at 2,700 nits.That’s plenty for most people, although I found I wanted the brightness somewhere in the 80% range indoors and 90% range outdoors. I’ve gotten to be a bit of a brightness snob of late, though, and most people will probably be OK around 60%. It’s probably best just to leave the phone’s Adaptive Brightness feature on and let it choose for you.One nice upgrade to the display here is actually as simple as a software tweak. For some reason, the Pixel 8 required you to dig into settings to enable its 120Hz mode, which gives you a smoother display at the cost of some battery life. This means most people probably never bothered with it, but it was on by default on my review model. To check if you have 120Hz enabled, go to Settings > Display and ensure the “Smooth Display” toggle is switched on. I’d say it’s well worth using Smooth Display, as the phone will automatically lower the fps when your always-on display ticks on, which will help counteract the battery life drain.As for viewing content, it’s OLED. Blacks are deep, colors are vivid, and text is easy to read, especially in dark mode. I used the Pixel 9 to watch an Astro Bot stream as I was writing this review, and the game looked so pretty that I’m having a hard time not immediately buying it. (I still haven’t finished Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.)Credit: Michelle EhrhardtShould you buy the Pixel 9?Google’s Pixel 9 is a scrappy little phone, and despite not being as flashy as a Pixel 9 Pro, Pro XL or Pro Fold, it’s probably enough for most people. This is one of Google’s most generous models, packing all of the Pixel 9 line’s biggest new AI additions as well as an updated camera setup that’s almost as good as the Pro model’s. The screen isn’t quite as bright or high resolution, and the base model still has the same issues as its more expensive cousin, especially when it comes to third party app performance, but you’re not going to lose out on much if you go with the regular Pixel this time around. It’s still a commitment, starting at $799, but if you have yet to enter Google’s ecosystem and don’t want to buy an older phone, this is a good way to do so while spending just a little bit less. http://109.70.148.72/~merchant29/6network/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/1726485010_212_g29a868476cc78dd07b195443b85a260abacf2e782b236c897461ea09d502e5963950af7715ab1203dc785b6eb608bf35487.jpeg We may earn a commission from links on this page.
