texazzpete:

And you can probably buy a dual core HP touchpad running WebOS for 20k. Your point?

texazzpete:

UK version is Qualcomm too. So basically the two biggest markets for Samsung are making do with the quad core version.

texazzpete: Just picked up my galaxy S4. Seems it's the 'Octa-core' variant Samsung is selling in Nigeria. Benchmarks higher than the Qualcomm versions so i'm not complaining

If anyone is interested in picking up a clean Note II for 63k and a clean 32GB S3 for 55k, lemme know

viroblaze:

Not gotten a first hand and don't need to since the software update of the s4 will go to both the s3 and N2...check reviews, it's quite unwise to go from a note2 to an s4 unless you're on some spending spree... If you got patience, wait for the note 3...

ciphoenix: it's unnatural going from a note size to less than 5" screen

I mean no disrespect, but I think you should see before you conclude, and if u sell phones I am sorry to have shared this here, I guess this should help you smell something else not fish

But there's a 64GB HTC One for around $100 more. When you factor in the fact that you'll pay around $50 for a 48GB memory card (if one exists at that size) then you see it isn't such a bad thing. Plus internal storage is always faster than even a Class 10 sd card.

texazzpete:

People like you are in the minority. The success of the iPhone shows most people don't NEED external storage. I doubt your total storage used is over 32Gb anyway.
Most people who complain about expandable storage buy a 16GB phone and stick in a 16GB or less memory card. Total is 32GB or less!
I may also point out that the internal memory is way faster than even a class 10 microSD card. 99% of Nigerians who use expandable memory use crappy class 4 or class 6 cards. I use a 32GB Class10 card from Sandisk...I am an exception.

texazzpete:
You cannot compare 2013 phones like the Find 5 and SE Z with the S3 that came out in April 2012. Why not compare with the Galaxy SIV that blows the Find5 and the Xperia Z out of the water with ease...and is pretty much even (or a bit better) than the HTC One?

HTC doesn't have that much cash for the kind of aggressive marketing Samsung can churn out. You know the massive mindshare Samsung won with their Olympics sponsorship? Samsung is VERY rich
