Why Do We Buy Every New Phone That Is Introduced Into The Market? by Emrich(m): 4:59pm On Sep 13, 2013
I have found that most Nigerians would starve just to save enough money to buy a new phone, once a new one is launched, even when they have not used the one they last bought for six months.

Why must you sell your last year's flagship (the latest and perhaps, the most expensive) for this year's?

Your contributions could save a lot of lost Nigerians and fatten our wallets.

Why do people persist in making general human problems into an exclusive Nigerian one? Which country doesn't have people trading in old models for new ones? Be it cars, clothes, phones or even people, the newer model always appeals. As long as human beings pride themselves in their individuality we will always have this desire to have the newer model because it seems to call more to our individual tastes. This is not Nigerian, it is human.

Typical of Nigerians to focus on a part of something and forget the whole. Since I have said Nigeria already, can't you forget the world and deal with the place you truely know, Nigeria, the place this thread wants to focus on?

Next thing now you will the entire purpose of this thread and turn it into another thing.

This is an international, public space... just take correction. Though you might be leaving in Nigeria, but you can easily do a little research about this aspect that makes us all human, instead of simply dressing it up as a Nigerian.

You're right, I live in Nigeria and that's why I am more interested in Nigeria and not every other countries of the world. So maybe this thread is for Nigerians, unless you're telling me that I have no right to pick a global issue and address it as it affects me and my country.

I wouldn't ignore your point if you had constructed it in a way to reflect the purpose of this thread. Sorry if you feel slighted.

I don't feel slighted, I feel disgusted (I generally feel disgust for such things so its not personal). I believe my answer addressed your question while trying to realign your focus. We are all humans and express human drives ( which are not uniquely Nigerian). If you are seeking a solution to why people buy newer models then you cannot focus on Nigeria because we are not in isolation.
