What Y'all don't understand is that fact that iPhones and Samsung are sold for the same price in the U.S., what you should do is ask your retailers why the prices varies in Nigeria, what a new smart phone is launched in the U.S., it's sold for $699 and iPhone is not left out, it's only when they get to our market here that we see crazy prices. I don't stand to be corrected on this one, it's fact, it's when you include tax that the price falls to $741 or thereabout depending on the state you purchasing from
Get your facts right please, there not the same price. Even the iPhone 6 and 6plus are not the same, even the different ROM capacities (16g,64,128) Are not the same talk less of different manufacturers

Microsoft is releasing 3gb ram and QHD fones because its her first flagship fone.she has to bump it with higher specs to win ppl over.u shud ask ursef y dey didnt make it 4gb ram.cos it useless on a an ARM-based fone.watch out,first windows 4gb ram fone ll be x86(intel) based fone...tell ur google to starch switchin to x86 operating system,as westerners are getting bored with unproductive arm based devices.thus,switching to full windows.should microsoft switch to x86 fones and apple replace ios with mac os 4 ipads,android ll be dead and buried

I like to say a lot of things here , but as it is the iphone super gang are already doing a fine job of it , so I'll just maintain my chill .... I started using androids long before techno and infinix gave these fvck boys mouth to start mistalking , coming from someone who has used all platforms , (Symbian , bb7, bb10, meego, even Linux ) iphone gave me the much needed peace and functionality I have always wanted

And to iphone users out there , if you haven't jailbroken your device yet , trust me you are grossly under-using your device ..

Typed on my jailbroken Iphone 6 , 64gb, grey edition , iOS 8.4 grin
Iphones are great but honest truth Apple can do more with the over 150k plus prices they ask for their phones.just to compare Samsung makes less than 40 dollars par device while apple makes over 100 dollars par device.apple be saving on hardware components where they still use specs like 720p screen and 1gb ram and especially in 2015(the year of value flagships like one plus 2,moto x style huawei p8 xiaomi Mi note pro)its hard to justify the price tag

Most relatively new phone users may not get the drift of the iPhone. If you had started with the first generation iPhone 2g you would understand better. This was because it was deemed revolutional device and way ahead of its time. more recently devices have caught up with the technology and therefore reducing drastically the margin between iPhone and others....but for those who pay to attention to details you would know that an iPhone has clear advantage in performance, product design, and simplicity....

A simple example. Make a call simultaneously on an iPhone and the best android device and end both calls at the same time....your iPhone immediately takes you back to your call log while the other device will take an extra 3 to 5 secs before getting to the log screen (time lag)...meanwhile this feat has been since the iPhone 2 generation...I can do more things better and faster than any other phone.

@bettercreature, Google has a service to speak to the phone and have it type what you say. BTW, that isn't really a vital feature in a phone... When your phone is carried away(stolen) and flashed, its all over. Listening to Siri read isn't really that enjoyable, is it?.... iPhone screen can never scratch? , dude what kind of lie is that. So basically you're saying it's indestructible.? Hmm.. I think not and there is Sapphire Glass now so that pretty much covers strength of screen. As for transfer of photos, I don't do that much but I'm pretty sure Google will have a substitute for that.

Sure. Google does have Picasa that syncs your pics across your Google account on all devices if you enable it.

Sincerely, when I hear people argue or fight over what an iPhone can do and what it cannot do, I just shake my head, and saying iPhone has limitations in Nigeria is just WRONG. I've been using an iPhone since 2011 and I can confidently tell you ' if it's not an iPhone, it can never be an iPhone ' and that question about what can an iPhone do or what's special about an iPhone, I would answer the question better, what can a Benz do that other regular cars can't do ?
The question I think you guys should ask is,what can't an iPhone do .
What you should be telling us is what it does and not the number of years you've been using it. You here in Nigeria and u using an iPhone... what has made u prefer iOs over android

A lot bro..... At least better than BlackBerry OS and Windows Phone OS combined....

[b]Initially when I said iPhone users does a lot of things with their iPhone more than Windows Phone OS and BlackBerry Os combined, people started quoting me and asking me to mention ‘em.

But I was afraid to list them because am scared that if I tell them, they may be tempted to go and sell their fathers land in the village to buy an iPhone just like the Chinese kid last year with his kidney.
And I know my Nigerians very well, we love our lives and we are not willing to tread it with anything so nobody will be willing to sell his/her kidney like the Chinese kid but our fathers land in the village will not be spared.
…… That’s a joke please, don’t take it too personal…..

1. iPhone has a built in Dictionary that automatically integrate into every App you install on your iPhone, making it easy for you to find meaning of words right on the App you’re using (just by taping and holding the word and click on “Define” on the list of options that appear…) without leaving the App.
2. iPhone has Text to Speech engine that integrate into every App you install on your iPhone, enabling your iPhone to read every Text file on the screen while you do the listening. (It works across all your Apps including third-party Apps like Chrome, Opera mini, MS word etc. You can as well just select a particular word you don’t know how to pronounce (either on your browser, Opera Mini for instance or any other App you install on your iPhone) and your iPhone will pronounce it for you.
3. Have you ever played a Music with your phone while you’re feeling sleepy and you wish your phone could stop playing the music when you doss off? Well iPhone does it even when you’re using a third-party Music Player like TTPod or Musixmatch etc.
4. A lot of people like to take Selfie, but using your hand to hold your phone and control the camera at the same time, is kind of look awkward but with your iPhone Original headset, you can place your iPhone on a table or anything at all and comfortably control the Camera of your iPhone just with the volume locker on your headset.
5. A lot of people like to “Take Note” of things that matter to them…. For me I’ve lost countless of my Notes, since 2008 that I started using Smartphone even with my HTC One Dual SIM I lost my note after I updated to Android 5

(Until I discovered MIUI ROM the best Android ROM on the planet: MIUI also back up SMS, Contact, Call log, Recorder, Music Play List etc. for those interested)

iPhone Note App backs up your Notes automatically to Gmail or iCloud. You can also insert picture to your iPhone Note, also when you copy an article on the internet to your Note, it also copy both the picture in the article.

7. iPhone remains the only mobile phone that plays the award winning Chair Entertainment Game “Infinity Blade I, II & III”
8. Plus what you think a Lumia phone and BlackBerry can do combined togher.

9. Ladies and gentlemen, permit me to stop here for some people has already started thinking of the worth of their father’s land in the village so they and sell it and buy an iPhone. And I wouldn’t want to be held responsible for being the person that talked them into selling their fathers precious land.

Guy, unlocking iCloud account is a trial n error thing, nobody can give u 100% assurance that they can unlock it. Besides, the charges alone is almost enough to get another iphone so whats the point? Unlocking iphone 5 costs almost 35k and is not guaranteed it will work.
do ur research well

Read post on Lindaikeji and thinks iCloud can be opened just by snapping your finger.

Hear kingsilly talk... Mtchwwww!!!

Sillyking/kingsilly I said few dollars not nairas.

Have you ever unlocked an icloud before? It may seem expensive when you give it to a phone technician.

I can't go to lindaikeji. Maybe you should educate me on how to unlock icloud here, I am not a fan of gossips!

So many people talk sh!t about IOS because you haven't or have no money to purchase one. Talking from experience, I have use different mobile OS and currently using IOS. If you know about technology very well you will know that no mobile OS is compared to IOS. Ok let me give you one simple example because I won't like to sound complex. Let's look into FIFA15 you will see that in the game on any other mobile OS you can't play online season I mean playing with other people all over the world like PS3 while IOS is the only mobile OS you can play online game. Do you ever think why is that? Don't bother thinking that's why I said you will have to know more about technology.

Are you trying to tell me I can play with people online in another place or what?

To snap Pishure.... and u know na Yankee fone.. so as na white dey use am pass... trust black man... no time..


Although Iphone is a great phone particularly in protecting personal data. They have tons of great apps even android can't run. The problem is that it works best in the U.S because they are facilitated with tools that help you enjoy your iPhone.. but here in Nigeria? Naaah
Just for big boys big gals.. they don't maximize the use of the phone except those that had to jailbreak the phone to access the inaccessible.

My opinion. Let's hear others
Hello do you mind listing some of the great iOS apps that android can't run?

Pls tell your sister to come and swap hers for my S4. Thanks
BecaciaBarbie:
My sister got one as her birthday gift recently and the only time we remember she has an IPhone is only when we want to snap pictures. Right now the phone is in her cupboard lying helplessly!

IPhone is very useless! My elder brother swapped his Iphone5 for S4! S4 is 100% better than the over hyped IPhone...so many fun facilities like scrolling with your eyes, saying "Cheese" to get a snap shot without touching the camera button, swiping with your eyes...etc
