I can't even imagine myself using the likes of infinix, techno, gionee and all those


Till something better comes to the market, my only two phones are iPhone and Samsung

In terms of pricing; I love those phones cos they are actually expensive...

You like them cos they're pricey? Like seriously!

My gf's Mom and 2 sisters used Infinix phones before me and infinix showed them pepper. My gf warned me but I didn't listen.

I made the mistake of buying an Infinix in 2015 and it cost me dearly. The phone lasted exactly a week before the board fried. Had to change the board at the cost of 55% of the price. Lasted a few months before it fried again. Dumped the crap and bought a Samsung. Used it for a year and moved to Xiaomi.

Just this week, told her that I was broke and couldn't change her phone. Offered to buy her an Infinix Note 4. She immediately rejected it and said it's either Samsung or HTC.

The truth is that people's eyes are finally opening to the penny wise, pound foolish products that Infinix produces.


Ehen u deh buy phone for gf
Buh if ur main nigga ask u for small cash u no go give
A gal u wont even marry
Continu, hope u have also bought a phone for ur mama and sisters to ba

1.) Battery Life: Why do I need to always be with a power bank if my device battery life was ok? With Infinix, you may not always have to charge your device very 8 hours. Samsung batteries are dead wack!

2.) Fast Charging: It takes like forever to fully charge a Samsung device except you use a super fast charger of another brand like Infinix, huawei etc. In fact, the latest Infinix devices like the Note 4 pro, are super faster with the XCharge 4.0 technology.

3.) Price: We all know that Infinix devices are much more affordable than Samsung devices and you get more value for your money with your Infinix device. Moreover, Why do I have to pay half the amount I bought the phone just to replace a cracked Samsung screen?

Samsung market share in Nigeria has fallen considerably! Infinix is doing just better off even though both brands needs to improve in other areas....


Very unintelligible write up...void of fact and rich in fallacy...

The only truth in everything u have written is that infinix phones are cheap...

Well what do u expect for such low quality? Plastic bodies , mediocre processors etc...

The illusion that their phOnes have better battery life is simply because their processors and other hardware r WEAK so do not use much power, see the stupid Note 4 u talked about , 1.3ghz processor , with 4000mah ba3, how won’t d ba3 last , it’s like give a Nokia 3310 phone a car ba3 to run on... and for your information young man, Samsung phones have bad ass batteries, look at the Note series


And pretty much every Samsung phone since 2015 has fast charging capabilities, if this feature is absent then the charger and charging voltage are optimized to at least give a relatively fast charge experience...


Please get your facts straight before u come here and talk shit

The only reason YOU would want to use an infinix over Samsung is because u CANT AFFORD THE QUALITY...

Samsung is nobody’s mate in Nigeria, u no even say make u compare some of the new Chinese brands like xiaomi and one Plus , na infinix

the main reason why people buy smartphones these days is because of camera.
apart from camera, almost all latest smart fones are good in terms of perfomance

Samsung has really disappointed in terms of mid-range Camera, that first Galaxy J7 is one of the worst cameras for snapchat for a phone that costs 50-70K.
I'm not quite sure how much the J7 2017 would cost but it better be below 100K

Lol. Op has gone mental. Okay here's my story. My younger sis has changed the board on her phone thrice. My immediate younger sis changed it twice and dumped the phone. My mum got a 65,000 infinix after 2weeks we took it back for repairs. After another 2 weeks back again. First mouth piece second speaker. Now it's board again. Note* all 3 phones were brand new.. I have been using my a8 since 2015. It has neva for one develop any fault. In fact all samsung I hv ever used hv neva developed faults. My sisters are using samsung now. I haven't even started with the screen, processors, display etc.. Infinix is no good.. I have neva seen an infinix user who has never changed the board.. You hv been warned

Changing board sounds like something from 2014 or so, my bro and i have never changed board. I haven't even had any issues with Infinix and i have used many and sold many to peeps. Some are over one year old now.

LOL..This is shallow thinking. My Samsung C9 pro goes full charge under 20mins and the battery life is not your regular Samsung battery. Last longer than your average Infinix and Huawei phones. Used two infinix phones(zero 3) in the past and i wish i didn't. The two phones developed major fault under 1 year. Had to discard them. Calculate the amount i spent on these phones which i could have used to get myself a decent phone. If you don't have money for the high end phone is fine, but don't go about comparing Samsung with Infinix.

How many years contract did you sign for being her maga?

You bought her a phone. I see nothing wrong about it; but the moment you got her a phone and she rejected it, not just rejecting it because she wants you to spend your money wisely, but because she rejected it, for you to buy her a more expensive phone out of your pocket.

Guy, even if she enchanted you, you ought to had realise you are in a relationship with a leech the moment she rejected it who has nothing good to offer your life.

Wise up man! Wise up!

Thanks for your advice, but you can pocket it.

Unlike a lot of you boys on NL, I don't date leeches. She owns her business and makes her money while I make mine. We've been dating for 4 yrs and been through a lot together. Stopped her from getting a Samsung cos I want her to use a Xiaomi l.

Unlike you and your ilk where just any phone will do, she can't use just any phone. This is because in her business, she gets contracts and her clients size you up to know if you're capable of delivering the required services instead of running away with their funds.

I appreciate your advice but it's founded on ignorant assumptions.

That's no longer fast charging, that's juju.

Also, if the Infinix Zero 3 was so bad, why did you buy another one?

When I experienced it, I thought I was the only one. It was when I got to Carlcare that I knew it was a normal thing. See crowd at Carlcare. It was like an APC rally in Kano.

If your Infinix device works for 3 months straight, it's a mistake on the part of the manufacturers. They don't want your phone to last that long.

Op I was in your shoes before but my eyes opened.

I can perfectly understand you. But guy no be here o. Comparing Samsung and infinix is like comparing naira and dollars.

I have used some of the best and latest infinix products, like the note 3 and the zero 4 plus, trust me they don't hold a candle to what I use now, Samsung galaxy A9 pro. So you also know, the difference in cost between the A9 pro and zero 4 is just about 25,000.

You talk about battery life as a weak point for Samsung phone, you obviously have not met the galaxy A9 pro. What with its 5000mah battery. When you now add the aesthetics and wonderful performance. Bros no go there.

See ehn if you a Samsung phone, baba trust me you will never look at any mediatek phone again. Its like chalk and cheese.

Very true. Samsungs phone are over priced. They cost outrageuosly too much even for the low end phones with inferior specs.

You also forgot to mentined that the samsung phones memory is filled with bloat that can only be disabled and not uninstall, hence taking a large percentage of your storage.
