All these epistle on top fingerprint scanner.

so I should cough out 70k+ just because phantom 5 (from TECNO) has a fingerprint scanner? smh

That phone should not be more than 40k..

flexcity82:
its all about brand name.

Samsungs finger print don't just unlock phones. It can be used to make purchases through Samsung pay, PayPal and Android pay. It can be used on Google play.. it can also be used in place of stored passwords. So it can't be compared in anyway.

Furthermore, those hyping this phone should know that there are other Chinese phones that would guarantee you quicker update and much more better, also cheaper.

One plus two
Xiaomi note pro
Asus zenfone
LG Nexus 5x
Huawei P8
Motorola X pure/style

That amount can also get you super clean used
HTC m8

flexcity82:
very insightful analysis.... facing the same dilemma also. the phantom5 is a hell lot cheaper than the samsung and iphone and expensive doesnt always mean better. am def getting this device

BenKafor:
For all of you that think that Tecno is not a real phone, the Standards Organization of Nigeria and Consumer Protection Council were at the launch of the Phantom 5 and they approved the phone & said it met up to requirements. In case you don't know who SON and CPC are, GOOGLE IT!
70k is actually very affordable for a flagship device.

ChidinmaRose:
For real? People should stop calling Tecno chinko.

Elxandre:

For a Noob, 70k is a nice price for this phone.

Nobody in the know, will touch this thing with a long pole, not when there are several better devices at far cheaper prices.

Karmanaut:

Lmfao.
>Standards Organization of Nigeria.
Putting the word "standard" and Nigeria in the same sentence should be an actionable offence.
As if any body takes Nigerian standards seriously.

Also.
100 NGN has been deposited in your Tecno agent account.
Keep shilling.

People are buying the Phantom 5 get over it

Godvilla:
Keep on deceiving urself with the tag name "flagship"
Is xiaomi Redmi note 2 not a flasgship?

Also, dnt use calcare as an excuse to get away with Tecno. Their service reeks of mediocrity. Peeps often end up frustrated when they visit calcare. Others prefer 3rd party engineers cos they get swift response.
We are not in the stone age where parts of device are hard to come.
There are several retailers who can get parts of any device across the globe.

Stop over hyping a common device thereby deceiving the populace. Anyone who admires the device will buy.

We are in an age where nothing is hidden in the internet.

BenKafor:

If you had DSTV you would have been able to watch the Tecno launch on EL TV yesterday. That's where I saw it. I don't need to work for Tecno to states facts. I have a Tecno phone and I'm proud of it.] All this BS you are are yarning is getting old.

Besides, I don't think I would be able to afford the Phantom 5 if my salary was N100.

Godvilla:

Elxandre:
I'm actually starting to hate TECNO with her online agents always everywhere making unrealistic claims just for the paycheck.
I almost can't find a credible Techno news piece to read the days.

ChidinmaRose:

Karmanaut:

As in..
I was reading the spec sheet for the device on Bestmob or so and I saw one idiot comment that the phone was durable. Durable! For a device that hadn't been released yet.
These slant-eyed Chinese must take us for fools.

BenKafor:
Nice, but these phones are not that common in Nigeria, what will happen if they get faulty. Are there parts sold here?

Listen and listen well, I don't know hw much you were paid to be on every tecno thread spewing thrash. I don't care about the body that came for the lunch and nobody said it's not a good phone but it's simply overpriced.

There are loads of phones of its calliber which is quite cheaper and offers better specs and updates. The chipset used is 2013 SoC. Common, there are phones with snapdragon 808 and 620. There are phones with MTK hello x10 which is also cheaper. It's simply overpriced that's the bottom line

I listed 5 phones up there and it's only one phone u could pick. That says a lot. So listing up used phones now correlates with self esteem. U need to check your head bro

haibe:
Lol do you know how much Xperia z3 is? That amount won't get you a z3 at all

henry007:
The story story was getting too much, if you check the official thread of all the phones, there's something someone would say about all of them that you would find disturbing. This thread is for finger print sensor users, you've obviously never owned any phone with that feature.

ollah1:


You just confirmed to us that you are paid by tecno. lol, you are really something else. I don't get it, so you mean TECNO PHANTOM 5 is the most complete phone ever, damn it.

Finger print is really driving you crazy. Oh God!!
