Parth Adhikari

Web developer and programmer who has spent the last five years using, breaking and fixing every major platform (Android, iOS, Windows, macOS and many Linux distributions), and now helps people buy tech that actually fits their needs.

Who I am

I'm Parth Adhikari, a web developer, programmer and the founder of PehleSoch. I build websites and apps, which means I spend my days working close to the hardware and software that most people only see from the outside.

Why you can trust my advice

For the last five years I have used every major platform hands-on: Android, iOS, Windows, macOS and Linux. On Linux alone I have run many different distributions and desktop environments, and I tune my own systems, from enabling hardware video acceleration to optimising performance on older machines.

That experience shapes every recommendation on this site. A spec sheet tells you what a device has. Years of daily use tell you how it behaves: how long software updates actually last, how much bloatware it ships with, how it performs after a year, and which "features" are only marketing. I write for the person who will live with the device, not for the box it comes in.

Why I started PehleSoch

Most buying advice online is either in heavy English, written to sell, or copied from spec sheets. Friends and family kept asking me the same question: "Is budget me kaunsa lu?" I realised there was almost nothing in simple Hinglish that gave a straight answer, so I built PehleSoch to do exactly that. Every guide tells you who should buy a product, and just as importantly, who should skip it.

How I work

I personally check every pick, every spec and every verdict before it is published. Where I have used a product myself, I say so. Where I haven't, I never pretend to have tested it. Some links are affiliate links, but commission never decides a ranking.

Platforms I have worked on

Android · iOS · Windows · macOS · Linux (multiple distributions)
