This thread was going on fine till the unnecessary comparison with Samsung came up.
Why can't you guys enjoy your phones without mentioning Samsung?
They don't mention HTC, SONY, LG etc.
It's always Samsung
They love masturbating to that name.

You are right.. I can't imagine myself using a Tecno phone.. Lol....

When I hear Tecno, I dey always remember those their substandard phones..

I think they should have a sub brand

They are actually improving anyways but I think the Phantom 6 and 6 plus are overpriced compared to others...
Tecno actually has taught me a lesson that you can improve a brand by bringing top-of-the-range products to improve consumer's perception of the brand. Tecno actually did that by bring out great phones. I'm a tecno user myself and I can tell you that they have strongly improved. So to stick to an old perception instead of making judgement on new facts shows a lack of growth which I suggest you work on.

Infact, it beats me when I see this kind of criticism on the brand. Ofcourse there should be constructive criticism but saying it is overpriced is so unfair. Assuming it so is, then it couldn't have broken a pre order record which it did.
Well pple criticise good and bad so am not surprised

Your comment shows you actually lack what you accusing me of... It shows you don't even understand the Topic. My comment contains different messages and at a point I was only being sarcastic.

I'm also entitled to my opinion like you are, for no reason you should try to insult me.

My intention was not to insult you. I apologise if it came off that way. I just wanted to make a point about changing perceptions to a brand based on new facts and information. I meant no insult smiley

You are right. People are stuck with that old perception , I think they should try out the new phones from Tecno, so they'll be better informed.

Tecno should have created a new brand and market such as high end brand making top-notch devices and continue making affordable devices under tecno brand. That's the same strategy Toyota used. People (and by people I don't mean only Nigerians) see Toyota as cheap and affordable brand and may be unable to pay for their luxury models they same way they would pay for brands like Mercedes or Porsche. What did Toyota do? They created Lexus brand, offering top-notch and luxury option superior to Toyota brand. Many people do not even know that Toyota owns Lexus and that's the plan. The same way some people may never be able to shake idea of tecno being a "chinko" from their mind, even if phantom 6 plus can compete head to head with iPhone or Samsung. People who would easily shell out 200k for iPhone may find it difficult to pay 100k for the same tecno phone with EXACTLY THE SAME specs.

That's just it. Its like haying on Volkswagen because the made the beetle and not appreciating their high end products. Tecno is exceeding expectations

I think these phones are good values for their prices. And besides , the exchange rate is a constraint. On a normal day, without poor economy, I think it shouldn't go for the current price. Well, people are using it and they're loving what their Tecno phones are giving them
Yeah, current market value ain't helping but that doesn't remove the fact that these phones are superb. And the cost ain't high.

exacly my point for creating this topic
Re: Why It Maybe Hard To Buy A Tecno Phone At High Cost by Abdstrakt(m): 6:38pm On Nov 13, 2016
Brand perception seems to be the key phrase here.
I honestly don't see what the big deal is really.
I'm an ideal world "real value" should influence purchases not "perceived value" being attached to the supposedly bigger brands.
I've used a couple Tecno phones in the past did I get value for money? Absolutely.

Simple. I think Tecno is all about affordability and at the same time bringing quality phones to the market. Something they've done well over the years.
Re: Why It Maybe Hard To Buy A Tecno Phone At High Cost by Elxandre(m): 5:37pm On Nov 19, 2016
Well Tecno has no updates.

Updates make your phone feel brand new!
You can only relate if you've ever used a phone that you got bored of already, only to get a major OS upgrade.

That's a good reason many won't buy Tecno.

This here is Tecno's strategy in a nutshell, and you can't fault them for bringing affordable phones to the market.

Simple. It's knowing what the people want and giving it to them as it should be. You gotta credit Tecno for flowing with this tide.

Fault them? Never, You just gotta laud them. It's commendable because they understand the market and the people.
