Chelsea legend Didier Drogba hosted the Ballon d’Or 2019 awards and was tasked with the responsibility of handing the 2019 Ballon d’Or trophy to Lionel Messi.

The Ivorian took a selfie with Paris Saint-Germain sensation Kylian Mbappe during the Ballon d’Or 2019 awards ceremony on Monday, and what caught the eyes of many is the modest iPhone 6 that’s still being used by the football legend.

Modric used iPhone 5 when there was iPhone X last year. Drogba uses iPhone 6.

Regina don go Marry her grand papa make she for follow buy iPhone 11.

Surprisingly , a person living in Nigeria cannot use all the features of even iPhone 7 because it's irrelevant to the Nigerian networking system.

They just buy it so that they won't put it in their pocket or so that their Twitter posts will read "... from iPhone"
***********************
Everyone talking "phone freak" below pretend they don't understand the Nigerian situation. Wetin average Nigerian babe wey dey kill her guy for the latest iPhone dey carry phone do than to post on Instagram and Twitter , chat on WhatsApp and take pictures under the sun and caption it "sun kissed".

If the thing climb her head she carry am record as she dey shake Nyash or sex tape.

I've always said this... it's ONLY in Nigeria and other poor nations that you see people go crazy over phones and other frivolities. Why? Cuz of extreme poverty. Simple! angry

Of all the senior executives I support at work, none of them owns the latest electronic gadgets or cars yet, they make >$400K annually. undecided

Whereas in a nation like Nigeria where >75% live on <$1 daily (abject poverty), they crave expensive and opulence lifestyles. angry

Hmmmmmm, this is deep!

And you will see some people that do not have 0.001% of what Drogba has and they are busy killing their mind and head on how to get the latest Iphone 11, ready to do anything to possess it.

This is a lesson for the wise one.

Modesty is bae!

Like LordAzubuike rightly said, there may not really be much differences between all these models. Just change of model name and a few tweaks here and there.

But that notwithstanding, enjoy your life if you want to. Yes, it may be true that billionaires don't spend much on silly stuffs but they still have some funny habits.

For instance, a few days ago, I read an article on LinkedIn which said that Warren Buffett drinks 5 cans of Coca cola on a daily basis

Rich people who made their money in a legit way don't give a damn about latest gadget.

Ask Ronaldo what phone he uses and also ask Dangote if his phone is worth over $1000.

I have been using my present phone for the past 2 years now and its still working perfectly so I see no reason why I should change device or upgrade.

I can't upgrade to a new phone simply because it's available or I can afford it

Here you can buy any phone and pay over 2 years on your mobile plan. So alot of people don't care. The basic functions are the same. You don't need extra pixels in your camera if you're not shooting a feature movie.

I laugh at ladies (and guys) who spend all they have on latest phones. It's a marketing gimmick. You don't need the latest phone. That iphone 6 is multiple times better than the first desktop computer ever built
