justojai: Me Techno? For wat na? Why is RIM offering BBM for free on samsung Tabs and not Techno? And am very certain RIM doesn't even know if Techno exist. I'll prefer a USED and ABUSED Samsung Tab to a brand new Techno watever. i just dey pass, but had to point out someone's ignorance. BBM is coming to ALL devices that run on andriod 4.0 and above, and its free. be it techno, samsung, lg, htc,( even nokia self if they decide to run on droid) so stop the unnecessary dissing. btw i dont use techno but lg. 1 Like |

I don't understand why people would want this thread closed. Anyway, I would be surprised if the moderaators, whoever they are, did that based on one or two people's opinion. |

mcgboye:What are you on about mate? How does your post relate to the argument were having? And how does it change the fact that the ranking stats show that s.korea is a more innovative and a more technologically advanced than china? Why are you running a way from the topic. Anyway, let me respond to this. In the end, all these in that article are just speculations from analysts which is in no way 100Percent accurate. If you follow tech news, you would notice that in the past analysts have turned out wrong most of the time. Some three years ago, it was predicted that apple iphone would own 80 percent of the smartphone market share but what is happening now? Ever since 2011, samsung has been growing with no sign of stoping and now own the highest market share. The tables might turn in the future, but for now samsung is king. And as I said earlier, in the end its all speculation. Samsung atm is by far and by a very great margin, superior to tecno. P.S-tecno wasnt even mentioned in that article. Companies like hawaie and lenvo were. I give credidt to whom credit to whom credit is due, lenvo and hawaie are chinesse company but they produce quality products hence are confident enough to take their products to developed markets nd are recognized. Tecno on the other hand mass produces substandard products 4 technologically backward 3rd world countries wit low certification standards knowing dat dey will sell like mad in those places, nd shy away 4rm devoloped markets where dey know their products wount be allowed past d borders |

My understanding is that Samsung is a Korean company but the devices themselves are assembled in China. And there's no empirical data to support the fact that smartphones made in Korea, if any, trumps those made in China. The term innovation is general and does net necessarily mean one is better than the other in all areas of technology. Do I think Tecno phones are as good as Samsung phones? No, as shown by all the benchmarks testings. Do I think Tecno make great phones? Absolutely. Do I think Samsung products are worth the prices they're going for? Definitely NO. I've spent the past two hours playing with my colleague's 10-inch Samsung tab, and I can't see much apparent difference between it and the N9. The N9 handles ALL taxes very well and is not significantly inferior as suggested by the price differential. Like I wrote somewhere, one unit of Samsung S4 costs $237 to produce but it's sold for $600+. A typical "chinko" wouldn't make such margin given the same specs, but then people will look at the huge price difference and say it's inferior. |

do they use same quality hardware? do they both commit to making sure the hardware is re-useable in private hands? do they spend the same hours and manpower money on software? do they make equal attempts at innovative features (hardware and software? do they extend to similar markets? do they spend similar amounts on publicity and marketing? do they both provide similar after sales service and warranty? do they both commit to supporting those devices by way of updates after they are sold? do they commit to equal Quality Assurance Standards? do they both commit to having to comply with standards in different markets? do they spend equal amounts on Research and Development to ensure their products are viable? there is a premium. the premium is not just because everybody is foolish with their money. YOU JUSTIFY THE PREMIUM OTHERWISE YOU ARE A GONER. there have been countless phone makers in the world.... the question is which ones have committed to excellence?. Not to be simplistic about it but once upon a time toyota and Honda came here to market.... Hyundai and Daewoo also came...... the present day facts speak for itself regarding these brands and their products. Until that commitment and push for excellence by playing with the big boys is made, you play with your mates. it is the reality whether u choose to accept it or not. there is no need for all these stories. Until the day you can submit your products for screening and acceptance in numerous markets, you are a Niche player. TaTa cars does exactly the same job a Limousine does. 1 Like |

You know why this samsung you people hate so much is wildly successful? they are arguably the most innovative and versatile company in the game. No big player has a device that does not contain a part made by Samsung. The biggest boys (Apple etc) order their processors etc from Samsung, custom built. Samsung Expenditure on Research and Development is more than 3/4 of the industry combined. Yet they still do so much work on differentiating their software (hate it or love it) you seriously think a bit player ordering low grade parts from a shenzen dealer is better than this company because its prices are low? let me give you the best example possible. read up on Google's nexus attempts at the low range. (ironically they try to use the best they can find for reasonable prices)... the Nexus 7? the Galaxy Nexus? read up how crappy those products turn out to be in the long run..... the mobile market is a constantly evolving one. This years' flagship is a budget fone in 1 and half year's time. the goalpost is constantly moving. The parts that are used in this years budget phones were used in proper devices in 2011. but the 2011 ones are now better than the 2013 ones because its cheaper? 2 Likes |

mcgboye:"Assembled" in china. Assembled is the key word. Not made neither were the resources for production sourced from china. All for the purpose of cost of production. The quality of the materials these two companies use grossly differ and a whole lot other factors which 4ller has already stated in his post. Hence, the diffrence in price margin. Use a tab2 for a year and it looks and performs better than an N9 used for just over 5 months. 1 Like |

caukerzee: ^^^^^Couldn't have said it better. I should not repeat this. mcgboye heres your reply. Lol. I don't have energy for this, but you obviously don't get my point. If, as those techy guys found out, it takes $237 to make one unit of S4, why should it be sold with a margin of well over 100%? The price differential isn't only because of the Samsung range of devices are better than those of Tecno, but the goodwill and the "brand". I don't have problem with that. But I absolutely think it's ludicrous to dismiss Tecno, gionee and similar phones as inferior just because they're Chinese companies. See, if the Phantom A+ is sold for 60-70k while S4 is sold for 100k, then I would understand people's apathy. The N9 is a new device and there is no evidence that it won't last more than a year as suggested. Maybe I'm being unnecessarily sympathetic towards these cheap, chinko phones, but the truth is I think 80% of users will do fine buying an N9 instead of the more expensive Samsung and Apple tabs 1 Like |

Am always open to hear what I don't know and not what I know. Would you be kind enough to share a link to where Blackberry (RIM no longer exists) announced BBM would be available "on Galaxy". All their announcements have been that BBM will be available to Android 4.0+ and iOS devices. There's been no mention of a specific device, or at least I haven't seen one. |

mcgboye:Wondering why a samsung galaxy cost over 200% of its cost of production? Workers have to get paid man. Just recently a samsung worker was complaining on having to work on over 3000 phones and you have over 20 000 of such workers. These workers are paid over $10 per phone. The assembling is done by humans and not machines. Funny how you forgot branding, boxing and packaging cost?? Accessories (charger, usb cable, samsung kies, HDMI cable, etc) shiping? Budget for publicity and marketing? Plus their own profits. All these would definately amount to such selling prices. Have you ever taken time to find out the cost of production of an f7?? A jaw drop is an understatement of what you would get. Thats how I know their products are substandard. I do not need to use an n9 for 5months to know it would look older than a one year old tab 2 as it has no display screen protection whereas the tab 2 does. Tecno older phones are typical examples of what i am talking about. A friends n3 which is just two months old, the display screen is an eyesore. 1 Like |

These Samsung that some dude make noise about as the best phone is not actually the best  Some have not even used it I bought a Samsung Galaxy S duos for my wife 2 months ago for about 35K From Slot and now the Phone shut off on its own...I just Google the issue and behold its a very serious and popular issue just Google it and see (And they say Samsung is the best....) My Tecno T1 (First Tecno Android) is still working fine after about a year. See link below for issues with Samsung Phones (New Phones at that...)
