Technical Guruji, who is also known as Gaurav Chaudhury, is one of the most well known YouTubers in the country. His channel has over a million subscribers and is also considered to be one of the most reliable.
He usually provides reviews and news updates about new products and changes in the tech world, and does so in a manner understandable to the common man. That makes his channel really popular.
Recently, Gaurav also posted a review of the latest Samsung products on his channel. In fact, he was also seen at the launch event hosted by Samsung where he was seen unveiling the Galaxy M Series.

However, this move was not appreciated by a lot of people like the owner of Xiaomi, Manu Kumar Jain, who felt that this could mean that Technical Guruji reviews are biased in nature.
He felt that Gaurav should not be making appearances at product launches of specific companies especially since he claims to be impartial as far as his reviews are concerned.
Manu did not specifically mention who he was referring to, but his tweet made it abundantly clear. He tweeted,
Ironical to see tech bloggers get up on stage at product launches, talking all great things about the product (maybe influenced by monetary payment).
As a reviewer, users depend on you to be honest & open about any product.
How can this be termed as 'unbiased' media?

And that was not all, for a lot of people felt the same way.

I already raised this concern on his channel long back that he is becoming biased day by day my comment went unnoticed but today Manukumar's tweet proved I was not wrong.

I never count Technical Guruji as a reviewer..He is just a rich prople who unbox phones for time pass and earn money from youtube..A true reviewer never give verdict on a phone just at the time of unboxing..😪

Obviously money matters , why do celebs sign for tobacco / alcohol beverages then ! Don't worry #Xiaomi #Redmi phones are beyond that , they don't need bloggers and their reviews for breaking records .

Gaurav Chaudhury later responded to the trolling and tweeted,
“If people are trying to bring you down it only means you stand above them.”
Stay Charged 🔥🔥🔥Good morning 😉
