toric: Has any one bought Vsonic product on Niraland?
I intended buying Infinix Joy pad but saw another product which is Vsonic Tab, which of this two is better?
I don't know about vsonic, but the joy pad only has 512mb ram, and 1ghz single processor which is too low for a tab, it'll be so slow.....check d vsonic's spec n compare

mindtricks: K bro. But curiously some folks say N3 is better (more rugged) than P3?
I've not used any of it....only giving verdict according to specs seen....n3 doesn't have led flash, and the ROM is smaller than p3's.....my opinion tho....

mindtricks: What decent android is possible @ 20k, maybe RAM 1GB, fairly used?
Infinix buzz with Os android 4.0 (ICE CREAM SANDWICH) ,touchscreen and complete QWERTY keypad goes for #14,500 in Enugu.

gud job sheelay
Re: Thinking Of Getting A Smartphone? Come In For Advice! by SOLARPOWER1(f): 1:38pm On Jun 21, 2013
I really need somebody to explain this to me. I recently laid my hands on a friend's INFINIX BUZZ (X260) and discovered that the internal memory is about 127MB instead of the specified 512MB on the casing.Though the guy said he got it for #14,500 which is cheap compared to the original price I heard. I have been looking forward to getting this phone but this discovery is discouraging.I hope this is not a fake. Is there anyone using this phone here?
