'Hidden facts' copy and paste no good............. Repent before it's too late

Anyway
Are you advising me to get Samsung Galaxy 6 or IPhone
The price of each phone would get me a piece of land in Ogun State
Remember the value of land appreciate while phone depreciates
A plot of land in 2015 @ #160k
Samsung Galaxy 6 in 2015 150+
IPhone 6 2015 170k
In 2025
The plot of land would be #5m
Samsung Galaxy 6 #8000
IPhone 6 #10000
Think and spend wisely
Remember vote for GEJ
do you have a plot of land??

My dear friend....in international relations there is no such things as permanent friendships...only permanent interests.

That's why a few years ago...some Americans were convicted of spying on their country....for Israel.

Re: Disadvantages Of Buying China Phones (Chinadroids) by Nobody: 9:40am On Mar 24, 2015
When u say China phones u mean the ones assembled in Nigeria. Cos Samsung and most other 'good and expensive' brands are also from China. Though I don't quite agree with u in all, mainly durability, cos I know some that have lasted very long. Compare to their cheap price, their durability is fair.

Meanwhile the main deal is getting data on it, so u can maximise the efficiency. That's where I come in. You can get cheap Etisalat data if u call 08121254566 now! 250mb for 400, 500mb for 700naira, 750mb for 900naira and 1gig for 1200naira.

Thanks for that...but am not thinking of selling it am thinking of gettting another. So forget about durability once I can use extra money of buying iphone 6 for a business and gain more than am spending

The screen for a Samsung S3 is N16,000.

1 phone for 100k when I can get another with basically the same features for 15k? That's not being smart bro.



Afterall, the minimum wage is just #18,000.

Its a matter of choice. U use what u can afford. Some people live in one bedroom flat, while some live in two or three bedroom flats cuz its what they can afford at the moment.

I used a Tecno phone for over a year and passed it on to someone who is still enjoying it.

And it served me in the same way a Samsung S3 would.

look bro ,you still don't get what the op is saying. I use a nokia lumia900 and it is serving me exactly the same way a s4 or any other phone would at least I have no complains. I once had a tecno and it had screen problems ,we couldn't find the screen and eventually the cost of the screen was more than half the phone cost price and we couldn't even get it. Even tecno office in nigeria can't fix most tecno phone problems . But no matter what,you will get samsung phone spare parts likewise blackberry and other well known brands like that. Non availability of china phone spare parts is a great minus for their phones .

the issue isn't the cost but the availability,even if it cost 200k that doesn't matter ,the point is it is available . What is the point of buying a phone that u can't get its spare parts easily

Correct! Very strong and powerful phone can be damaged or get lost at any time, genuine land in good location increases in value right from the time it is bought.
