and wetin b d meaning of chinko?...all this i too know people self, na them no let naija progress....every company has a touch of china in it,and in terms of technology china is among the best,u can call all those noise makin tecno's chinko..just like how people call nokia torch light phones palasa..but u cant call a tecno android chinko,bcoz its function is better than blackberry,nokia lumia or symbiam...u are not a phone developer,so ur layman mentality will always make u think once a phone price is low...then its chinko...shame on u bro.

pDude:

Now let me school you.

Samsung, apple inc, htc, hp, etc all have their factories in China and they manufacture their products there. That is why they write: made in China. These companies ensure that the manufacturing standards of their products are high.

Chinko made is also made in China but the products made belong to chinese companies. These are companies like tecno, etc. Their standards are low and their products are cheap. That is why they are called chinko.

Hope you have learnt something today.

It is Nigerians that have labelled Chinko as something bad. I never said anything bad about chinko or term it as bad

babsalux09:

now i guess u av takin back ur words,and u gat some point and acceptin d fact that some of samsung e.t.c products has come to existence with d availability of resources from china..good u av clearified that..but if u say low standard its ur opinion maybe bcoz they avnt come out with a product that will rip u off,well all i av to say is d issue of tecno arising is just like a company comin out to produce a phone like curve 4,bold 3 and bold 5 when d world is already aware of z10,z30 and d rest...also samsung and other big name myt av gotten hype bcoz they prefer to use frigile but attractive materials in d finishin work of their product while tecno chose a less expensiv and cheap to replace material doesnt guaranty durability,wateva product it is,its left to d consumer to derive optimum satisfaction out of it,and make e can afford and bear whateva damage or fault that d device might encounter later on...its left to us to make our choices rights.

pDude:

There is a difference between China made and Chinko. You know this

And who are you to call me ode

smartg :
Whether na Samsung or jackpot, abi na Nokia or mafia, whether LG or MD, abi na Sagem or Sack-them, whether SonyEricsson or solar-eclipse, abi na BlackBerry or bad-belle, if u like make e bi Gionee or gonorea. I don't care.
All I Want Is TECNO! TECNO!! TECNO!!!. All I Want Is TECNO!!!!.

JideTheBlogger: The price is the koko...

Average Nigerian don't care about specs joor.

Emelcee: Stories For The Heart
A Very Touching Story....
A poor boy was in love with a rich man's daughter….One day the boy proposed to her and the girl said…”Hey! Listen, your monthly salary is my daily hand expenses..How can I be involved with you..?
How could you have thought of that? I can never love you, so forget about me and get engaged to someone else at your level” But somehow the boy could not forget her so easily…..Some time 10 years later they stumbled into each other in a shopping mall.
The lady again said….,”Hey.. ! You! How are you? Now I’m married and do you know how much my husband’s salary is..? $15,700 per month! Can you beat that?
And he is also very smart” The guy’s eyes got wet with tears on hearing those words from the same lady…
A few seconds later, her husband came around but before the lady could say a word her husband seeing the guy, said……“Sir you’re here and you’ve met my wife..”
Then he said to his wife,”This is my boss, I’m also one of those working on his $100 million project! And do you know a fact my dear? My boss loved a lady but he couldn’t win her heart….
That’s why he has remained unmarried since.
How lucky would that lady have been, if she had married this my boss now?
These days, who would love someone that much?"
He said all these to his wife.The lady looked in total shock but couldn’t utter a word….
————— ————— ————— ——-
Life is so short and it’s just like a mirror.
You can only see as much as it reflects. So don’t be too arrogant or proud by looking down on others because of their current situations.
Things get changed with time just like the weather..! Don’t under estimate anyone because everyone has a great future!
Where you have been rejected before, you will be celebrated soon in Jesus name... Goodmorning dear. @emelcee8

Sike: I need to handle that Gionee first.

ireneidiva: Neither! I don't do cheap things!

lakefist:
You said it all without been bias

shizzle11:

Really? Affordability is now a crime right? I am sure if these same "cheap things" were to be selling at ×3 of the current price, you'll gladly buy them cos they are expensive. To people like you, exorbitance equals to quality even when the less exorbitant item has better quality, will outlast and outlive the expensive item. How intelligent......
please carry your loud mouth elsewhere

...u are not a phone developer,so ur layman mentality will always make u think once a phone price is low...then its chinko...shame on u bro.

Rockyfancino: Gionee of course. see the shape, slickness, with the texture of their case....menn!..gionee for life. eh en... before I forget, gionee is 16 million colours, tecno is 256k colours, with ugly body shape that scratches easily with the screen too.
Besides, @Op check gionee e7, then you'll know gionee is not a China phone again. Gionee e7 is snapdragon 800, and it has two versions... the one of 32GB and 16GB with 3gb and 2gb ram respectively, running at 2.5ghz.
So gionee is just helping the masses with mediatek phones.

Note that gionee e7 is on the same level with Samsung Galaxy note III and is in for a very cheaper price compared to iPhone 5s, Htc's, Nokia lumia, or galaxy notes.
Bro, choose wisely before you pick GALAXY note III , you can still earn that same SWAGGER from gionee e7

babsalux09: the main point is that when u complain about tecno 512ram,always no that they are lots of samsung,htc,sony xperia,iphone with 512 ram and are still expensive..here we have a tecno that is just half d price of d same big name android of d same specification...a tecno might not av d quality display like them but we are not colour blind now,and this phones can still run a couple of applications and games,also it does d main function of a simple android phone,why will i buy a galaxy pocket for a huge amount when i have a choice of tecno p5,and mind u this is just a new era for them...more product are yet to come,u want a 16million colour phone?...get tecno s5,but bcoz u wont like is 512ram...then wait for a 1gb ram with 16million colour...else we can go for other product,but bcoz this guys are just coming and havnt givin u a device like s4,s3 doesnt mean they cant produce somethin of such.

Another point is on durability,for i prefer a plastic coverin on d screen rather than glass,bcoz d strength of a plastic when it falls is better than glass,we have since case of damage samsung screen and very expensive to replace,i didnt say a plastic protected screen wont damage but its durability is better than glass,which also make d phone lighter to carry,and thats d case of tecno,but i can advise them to make more of semi-metallic casing for d firmness and rigid protect of d phone,bcoz a plastic covering tends to shatter whenever it falls..but doesnt easily break though.

but all d same,durability depends on how well you can handle.you phone,gorilla glass or not it will still break..but as for tecno and my experience with it,..my major concern is on OTA,..i can change my phone if i'm not satisfied with d network mode,screen size,ram or processor,operating system,camera pixel which are d major backbone, of enjoyin an android phone...i can just switch to a better tecno...i have been a phone freak,and i want my iphone 4 to be d last gadget i squander money,its time to start investin on better thing,not on a gadget that will keep bringin in new development...an tecno is ready to help me save some money with been deprived of my android experience...some phones are at d peak of technology,while some are just startin...and thats d case of tecno..u should only applaud their innovation bcoz its a marvelous work by tecno and its pairs to come out with a android product at such relative cheap price,technology is cheap they always saud,but some choose to make it expensive..now its left to us to be economical or otherwise.

I don't do cheap phones. My opinion. Learn to respect people's choices.

miracle4:
Chinese brands of android phones such as Itel, Tecno, Gionee and Infinix seems to have taken over Africa and other 3rd world countries. In Nigeria alone, it is either tecno or gionee when it comes to debate on which low-end android phone to go for.

I have witnessed countless number of dismal remarks by users of the African most populous forum (nairaland) on threads relating to reviews of one tecno smart phone or the other. This is unconnected with the frequency at which new model of tecno devices are launched with little or no difference in their specs.

So far, Tecno Phantom A1 from my point of view, has been their most successful device till date, everyone seems to be satisfied with the features it was saddled with, When we reviewed the tecno n7 device here comparing it with Gionee infinity and Infinix X450, it got the highest number of comments ‘cos users were eager to find out more about their favorite smartphones.


Today as 2013 draws closer to the finish, we decided to look into how this two Chinese mobile phone giants will fair in Nigeria come 2014. I will pick up three random phones from each in no particular order for a quick review, this is for some of us that hasn’t been following the trend lately.
