I've been using Nairaland for about 4 months now and I've noticed that there's this issue of people being branded as marketers especially "Tecno". Some nairalanders have gone ahead to make lists of these so called Marketers.

I'd like to state for a fact that I love tecno phones, I've used H6, phantom a+, camon c8 and currently c9. I'll admit they're not perfect coz I've had issues here and there but that hasn't deterred my loyalty.

Likewise I believe there are those that feel the same way about Chinese brands like injoo, INFINIX, gionee, lenovo, etc.... And of course I've seen loyal users of the big brands like blackberry, Samsung and apple.

All these people,whether Chinese brand or not, have one thing in common, they'll do anything to defend their beloved brands and naturally encourage others to join them and buy these phones coz they assume what's good for them is good for everyone else, which to me is OK.

I believe it's possible that some of these companies could be having marketers here but I won't make that my business since its not a crime anyway.

My question is, at what point does one qualify to be branded a tecno Marketer??
But why should we call someone a tecno Marketer when he showers praise for his phone??
Should we just keep quiet and only come here to complain when our phones get issues??
Don't brands like infinix deserve any praise when a customer is satisfied??
What do we say about people who come here just to bad mouth brands they've never even used??

Personally I was once called a Marketer coz I said in an earlier post that I'd switched from an s5 samsung to a tecno c9 and that I loved it. I'd just like to know your views guys.

good post..i see beef here and there jst like football fanatics.its not a bad thing for some one to be representing a product he/she got satisfaction from.

where is very one? they should come and air their views on this...cos if i heard shikim agn on NL, i go......till then

its cool.. Though overhyped.. The front 13MP camera is not as good as the back 13MP.
Hyped as a camera/selfie phone, it doesnt come with camera settings. WTF

1.3Ghz processor aint something to use in a smartphone of that calibre.

The battery lasts well...

Many more... But lastly, its a cool phone and worth the price.

well it's cameras are good but like someone said, they lack proper adjustment tools. I also think the selfie camera and the eye unlock thing were hyped for no reason but then again I didn't buy for selfie cameras.
I think it's main strengths are in the fact that the ram is 2GB, so smooth operation and I also liked the fact that it's processors were increased to octacore it really makes the gaming good. it obviously heats up after playing games for long but at least not as much as the c8 and h6 that I used earlier. It's display is also very good, a full HD, one of the reasons I bought it.
Personally I like the size but I feel like they should have done better with its design. The battery doesn't take me full day but I think that's coz am a heavy user so I have no complaint there. it's charging is kinda fast tho but I never let my phone go below 30% so I don't know how long a full charge takes.

Calling someone a marketer when he or she showers praises on his preferred phone brand is the biggest nonsense i have seen in a while. Okay what of those fanatics who love football And boast and defend their Clubs, Are they also Marketers?? I am a Tecno fan and a very Proud one at that.

Oh, I'm sorry. Maybe I should've quoted your other accounts tecno "fans"

The op above, what's with the digging of his/her profile?

Never and will never be a fan of tecno..

I'm a security conscious person, that was why I used a z30, along side apple.

I don't like brands that gives government backdoor access. Where all ur activities are monitored.

If you recommend what you've used for others, Nigerians will term it marketing.

U make a good point. On my side however I have nothing to hide so the govt can go through my phone as much as it wants.

No hassle. I'm just passing a message to the tecno "fans" that not all nairalanders are as gullible and stupid as they think

That means u really trust ur government. How patriotic. based on where I work, we take security of our contents and nd info with a high priority. That's why we all use bb10 phones as primary (emails nd calls) or apple. Android ain't secured at all, except phones with the KNOX feature.

Seriously! Can't you at least try to be discrete? Do you think I wouldn't know this is another one of your accounts? Your existence is futile and that thing wobbling in your skull is evidently useless! For someone who thinks he can deceive others, you're just a dummkopf.


@Norman4real I hope from all this you can now see proof that there are actually dimwitted tecno marketers on nairaland using different profiles.

God bless u guy..check OPs profile too

It's quite funny that this marketer thing always revolves around TECNO. Once you mention that name, people will call you a marketer. I think the reason why this happen is because TECNO is getting more popular every day in Nigeria and their haters are not comfortable with that. So once you mention TECNO, they'll quickly call you a marketer because they think you are making them more and more popular. But the truth is this:
TECNO don't need marketers, promoters and advertisers to help them to become popular. But they are popular because their phones sells a lot here. And The only reason why their phones sells a lot in Nigeria is because they took time to study the Nigerian situation and manufacture phones that meet our most important needs. For example, they noticed that our economy is collapsing and things are really tight, an average Nigerian needs a good but cheap smartphone, so they optimize their phones and sell at affordable prices. They also noticed our power problems so they make almost all their latest phones with powerful batteries. Most of their phones that sells so much in Nigeria will not sell in countries like United States, China or even South Africa. So their strategy makes them popular not marketers.

You would be good in Investigation o....i like this

Every brand has fans and that is not going to change soon. Even Apple pays their fans to queue as if they want to buy their latest release.
