—One of the fastest
growing mobile phone brand in Africa,
TECNO has partnered with Qualcomm
Incorporated, a global leader in next-
generation mobile technologies and
Etisalat, Nigeria’s most innovative
network provider, to launch the latest
addition to the TECNO smartphone
family, the TECNO P3 in the Nigerian
market.
The launch which took place today at
the Oriental Hotel, Victoria Island,
Lagos, was attended by a cross
section of the Nigerian media and the
crème de la crème of the Nigerian
showbiz industry. At the launch event,
Etisalat unveiled a twelve-month
special promotion for its subscribers
offering 100MB free data bundle on
purchase of a TECNO P3 smartphone.
The TECNO P3 is an entry-level
smartphone that runs on Android 2.3
Gingerbread operating system, and
powered by Qualcomm®
Snapdragon™ MSM7225A processor
to offer users the best 3G smartphone
experience, good battery life, and easy
access to the Internet and multiple
social networks.
Speaking on the partnership, the Vice
President of TECNO Group, Mr. Arif
Chowdhurysaid, “we realised that
internet savvy Nigerians are in dire
need of a fast, innovative and
seamless internet experience. These
experiences are what TECNO P3
smartphone brings, and that also
informs why we partnered with
etisalat”. Arif went on to explain that
consumers can choose either the
Etisalat customized version available
at Etisalat Experience Centers and its
partner retailers, or buy the un-
customized version from TECNO’s
partner retailers nationwide and it
comes with the same data bundle
offer as the customized version.
Wael Ammar, Chief Commercial
Officer of Etisalat Nigeria, said, “The
telecommunication industry has seen
an increased demand for data and
smartphones in recent times, and it is
important for network providers and
phone manufacturers to continue to
collaborate and initiate products and
services to satisfy this needs.
Etisalat’s fast easyblaze, 3.75G
broadband service combined with
these TECNO phones is yet another
example of our continuous effort to
bring our customers easy access to
the internet.”
Also speaking at the event, Alex
Dadson, Sr. Director of Business
Development for Qualcomm West
Africa, said, “Our partnership with
TECNO in manufacturing smartphones
according to the Qualcomm Reference
Design (QRD) continues to offer the
Nigerian market the best 3G
smartphone experience. QRD is the
only program of its kind that brings
together the value of the mobile
industry leader with specific products,
features and programs for emerging
markets. TECNO’s P3 leverages the
power of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon
processor to give consumers an
affordable smartphone that delivers a
superior user experience.”
Also speaking about the new product,
The Public Relations Manager TECNO
Africa, Mr. Boukali Mounir, disclosed
that the TECNO P3 is an all touch
screen smart phone that is WiFi
enabled. It has shortcuts to Facebook,
Google Play Store, Gmail, Yahoo and
Opera Mini. Above all, “it is a Dual-
SIM standby model with 3G/2G
connectivity which makes users’
internet experience more interesting”
added Mounir.
Meanwhile, TECNO & Etisalat have
earlier introduced a co-branded Dual
SIM phone T341 alongside the
amazing 12 months free data bundle
offer for a range of TECNO smart
phones & internet phones which
include N7, Q1, P3, T756, T736 &
