Top of the season to you all.

I still beleive it's OK to give new products a chance though. The Samsungs, Nokias and LGs could not have reached the point they are right now if they were criticised from the very beginning. I bought a Tecno andriod phone recently and I think it's fantastic. It does whatever you want (at least for a normal phone operation) and has not disapponited so far.

The mechanism for all these phones is basicaly the same. Most Nigerians buy names (Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren, TM Lewin, H&C, Lacoste ETC) cos it has become the norm but is it really normal to crave for these things? Why wear a Polo shirt with a large crazy looking horse and its rider and numbers allover? It looks stupendious on most peolple i've seen. Most people feel inferior when they dont wear a designer outfit and to flow with the crowd they just wear all sorts of rubbish. INFERIORITY COMPLEX AT IT'S PEAK!!!

Ponder on these: WHY ARE HP, DELL, SAMSUNG and APPLE COMPUTERS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN ACER COMPUTERS THAT DO THE SAME CHORES AND HAVE MORE CAPACITY THAN IT'S RIVAL?

The hunger for all these expensive items leads to corruption which has almost brought our dear nation to its knees. Why do you think Nigerians scramble to buy the latest cars not knowing the reason why they should cos the current vehicle is still in excellent condition.

Let's all hope and pray for the best in the new year. Cheers.

PEACE!!!!!!

tosinx: Op, What a sad way to use this voice you found. I just read the piece this morning. The entire writeup is baseless and biased and your grammar makes my skin crawl.

Where was Samsung when Nokia, BlackBerry and even Sagem were packing the stalls full of cutting (or attempts) edge tech? You should not write on issues you know hardly anything about.

Your writeup has no business incline, which is where Tecno is killing the boar! One, they acknowledge they don’t have a name like Samsung or other droid-packing OEMs, but they want to make a name and get market share; two, if the African market (the Nigerian market speaking of is more than 50% of the entire black market worldwide) is all they can get for now, what a wise investment choice! three, by cutting price and increasing offering, trust me, they still kill it on profits! so you just wait and see things unfold for yourself.

They can't penetrate the western markets cos of their shortcomings, so if they can leverage on the Nigerian loopholes to gain market and maybe someday become able to afford R&grin and the necessary reqs to cross the hurdles, bravo then.

I will compare both OEMs anyday, cos, YES, they are comparable on several fronts.

I’m sure you would have written this same thing about the BlackBerry year’s ago, cos you sound like one of them. I’m sure (tell me if I’m wrong) you NEVER owned an Apple device cos you couldn’t afford one and hated those who loved theirs. Thank God you can now buy a Samsung. That’s why we are now hearing from you. Have you seen the smile on the faces of the Tecno smartphone owners? Loyalty is growing, cos they recommend too.

You have found a voice, you have gained listeners. Use it wisely! And next time when you see business decisions being made, sit in the corner, watch and learn!
Aint you Two saying the same thing(poor Quality). Whoever is comparing Samsung to Techno is jes on a long thing, like comparing road side pie and FastFood pie.

martinz1: Tecno or whatever u Call it is a chinese phone,(remember chinese phones with tv, ac, radio antenna,etc) these phones where banned in usa and other western countries, but nigeria we just accept any device irrespective of it nature,,,tecno is a low end phone ,,never ever compare samsung with tecno, samsung is not just a phone maker, its a household name ,industrial machines,, ofshore crude oil machinaries, ,.,,,, but tecno phones are still ok and sweet,,, but samsung is more superior and generally accepted worldwide,,u can never see any network in usa or uk or any western country branding their name on any tecno device,, but u can see at&t lg, htc samsung, huawei, zte,, but never tecno,,
But that doesn't mean tecno phones aren't good,
Some tecno Android phones are sweet to use ,
The bottom line is never compare tecno to samsung, they are not on the same level,, its just like comparing a keke napep (trycycle vehicle) to a german brand(rolls royce ghost). Its true that both vehicle can move u from point A to point B, but their is a difference,,


U guys should buy anyphone your money can afford,, its a free world,, but remember GOOD THINGS DONT COME CHEAP

Especially that Gionee Elife E6. That phone was a HUGE disappointment with an inadequate 2020mAh battery powering a power-hungry full HD 1080p 5'' screen & no expandable storage. Out of the 3 reviews i read of the phone, 2 mentioned that the phone lags out of the box due either to the frugal (but relatively weak) mediatek processor or the heavy amigo skin/launcher on the phone, & someone here (Brainrex) who bought the phone also confirmed that it truly lags.

Dear ignorant brother, no need to use sentiments here, iits because of statements like this that people continue to bash tecno phones, that ignorant statement 'techno can do what Samsung can do' it rinks of lack of knowledge. Let me tell you if you don't know S3 is still the best selling phone of 2013 followed by s4 and iphone. just Google it. Dont come here with ignorance abeg. Y is your best tecno phone not there? if it is sooo good why is it not on that list? top phones of 2013 show me any tecno phone there

Most peeps use their smart phones to browse, update social media profiles, chat, play music and video. Oh,,and also make calls..... I'm yet to see any tecno Android phone that can't do all of the above. No one ever argued that tecno is better than Samsung in terms of quality. But it's all a matter of OS now. With Android 4.0, one can get virtually all necessary apps in play store. So I don't see the essence of upgrading from 4.1 to 4.2 for a basic smart phone user... Unless you're a developer or hardcore geek...
I use a Samsung phone. You all using Samsung should check where your phones were made from the battery compartment, it's likely made in China (especially if you bought it in Nigeria ).

Buy your tecno phones if you want, and savour the Android experience to the fullest.

Re: Why You Should Buy A Samsung Device Instead Of Tecno by sultanemerald(m): 11:48am On Dec 30, 2013
hawqer: @OP what you seem to have done is simply compare flagship Samsung Devices with Tecno devices, budget Samsung Devices lack all that bell and whistle and are likely no match for Tecno's offerings. sure Tecno lacks an R&grin department and thus "somewhat" lacklustre specs. Now remember Samsung of years past (go back 6 years), their devices were hardly inspiring, beside Tecno is niche (made for emerging markets) for a reason- they know they can't fight the Android game at flagship level......at least not yet.


Not to flog an ailing topic but you get what you pay for, if Tecno develops a device with Amoled, 3gb ram, exynos chipset and invests a lot in R&grin, you can not expect the price to be "affordable". so let's move past the constant contrasting and enjoy the various brands and the sector of the market they are concerned with conquering.

Smart response. And for one to keep comparing tecno and Samsung. Does Samsung feel threatened by the tecno brand? Are tecno and Samsung the only devices that run the android OS? What's with the bashing. I don't use a tecno neither do I use a Samsung. But Samsung devices are simply over rated even at flagship level. They copy and innovate. So much for being a leading tech company. Had apple not given them hardware to build , Samsung would still be in the dark ages of phone tech.

It is clear that the OP is a technology novice, though Samsung is catching up, Apple is still the benchmark of the smartphone industry.......from their processor to their camera to the display, the IOS software used by Apple rocks. Tecno though inferior to Samsung on a technology basis yet the reasons given in this thread r nonsensical, Tecno equally packs a good processor and a wonderful display mostly Amoled.
