I'm wondering why nobody is saying shìt about tecno releasing a supposed flagship phone at the rate of 41k but based on an old OS. This device was debuted not long ago but it's on Lollipop and Mashmallow has been out there for 6 months plus.

Are Nigerians just in love with mediocreties or what?



Abeg phones like lgv10,bb priv jez received marshmallow update last week and this phones are flagship phones are are even released afta google announced mm....so shut up and samsung j3 and j5 2016 versions all debuted with lollipop and they were launched last month and cost more than this phone.....so gerarahere

Nice analysis of the phone but for a 13 mp, i should honestly say i expected more, like the okada pic, i am damn sure, if we zoom in on the woman at the end of the road, the pic would get blurry and with a 13 mp, it should be very good pictures not average all round performance, i love ur analysis as you broke everything down but they seriously need to work on their camera, sorry to compare but an Iphone 5s 8 mega pixel camera would murder that okada pic, the details you get is very good, i was expecting with a 13 mp, at least something near if not better than the 5s, sorry but this is my constructive criticism, thanks man..


Shup up...why not compare things of same prices....the 12mp on iphone 6s and nexus 6p ,s7,huawei p9 are better than most cameras....buh they ask for more money....compare it wif a phine of the same price...why will you even think of iphone 5s...Nigerians sha....why not think of galaxy j5

BustScam, I have never been a fan of the likes of Techno, Gionee and other related phones but I must confess that the Gionee Marathon M5 Mini is the best phone is the class of such phones.
I don't own one though.

Its got 4G LTE capability
Its got 2GB RAM
Its got 16GB internal memory
Its got a 4000Mah battery (the Boom J8 is 3000Mah)
Its got a 8MP camera, 5MP front camera (*coughs* we all know that the likes of Techno and Gionee camera specifications can't be compared to the likes of Samsung, HTC with same specs though)

And its price is 32K!

That price for me is what's making the phone sell out! So Techno needs to review their price, if Gionee M5 mini is going for 32K then no sane customer would pick it a Boom J8 over M5 Mini.



PS: Nsonaso, Please what phone are you using? The screengrab you posted to disprove the battery strength of the Boom J8 shows a phone with a good battery life, I wanna know which phone please. Thanks.

Cliveglobal1, you asked for a phone with same specs but cheaper price, here you go.



Abeg shut up...why u dey lie..d phone is 40k and uses mtk6580 that uses cortex a7 while the j8 uses a beta a53....better camera on the j8 also...better design...the only edge is the 4000amh.....nothing more and remember the j8 music capabilities....so pack well...gionee m5 mini is comparable to infinix hot 3 2gb ram variant and not the j8...the only competitor out there that beats j8 is infinix note 2 lte as for the price and no oda phone as far as Nigeria is concerned....tecno really tried wif these asnd don't 4get the boom headset

Hmm..i here som geez sayn dem b techy buh lemme highlight som tins for u

1.talkin of Andy mm..as techy you wud have known by now dat only 2.6percent of phones on market ar using it right now...and once again Sammy j5 which is the same as this phone specwise is over 50k if not 60k
2.xiaomi redmi 3 costs 48k,no let that guy fool y'al


And mm or lollipo the main diff is now on tap and doze mode which is what I can live without and lollipop is still d most used android version up to date so recno using such is allowed and make you reason as techy and bring a phone of such price wif marshamallow....olodo...prejudice I will call u


And anoda olodo also compared this phone wif Sammy s7,y pipu no rsn b4 comparn phones self...tecno are not for the premium phones buh mid range budget smartphones...that's what dey produce...and once again bring aphone of its price for the likes of samsung and lg...chkd gsmarena dis morning and saw galaxy j7(2016) wif only beta processor and marsham costing 73000 if converted to naira...and an lg stylo 2 wif sam specs and stylus wif mm also costn58k....check it

I think all telecoms company should start this. I should be able to get a new phone in exchange for my old phone and a lesser price.

mrlaw93:
Will tecno allow me to add some token to my boomj7 in exchange for this?
Re: A Nairalander's Review Of The BOOM J8 By Bustscam by gingerman876: 1:25am On Apr 18, 2016
Samsung J5 that has same spec with this phone is selling at an outrageous 50-60k. Tecno is giving us a phone with like-specs at 41k, and some will still complain.

Uhhh boo..
The Boom J8 has so much more to offer than OS.
Virus ke? grin grin
Maybe it is only you tech people it affects.

My current phone runs on kit kat.
It wil clock 2 abi 3 yrs soon.
No virus ish.
How much more Andy 5.1

The Boom J8 is a MUSIC FLAGSHIP PHONE FROM TECNO


Tecno understands that Africans only buy budget phones.
They don't buy flagship phones since most don't have the purchasing power.

Your experience differs a lot from what others are saying.
J8 was created for Music and superior selfies.
It even has a flash in its front camera.

Kaiiiiiii
