There are under 17 here bro. Easy na

It's just an analogy bruh. You do know those same under 17s have access to the romance section right?

We keep hammering on premium tempered glass, not the one that is poor in quality that will want to make you smash your device on the ground. Try a nilkin tempered glass(should be around ₦5k) and come back to modify your statement. There are grades to literally everything.

@the bolded that you have never seen doesn't mean it's untrue, a lot of folks around me use premium phones and they all have a form of protection on their phones. Not everyone loves seeing those ugly scruffs or those tiny scratches on their phones which are most times inevitable when your screen is naked. You see it's not about being "careless",

Spot on

madgoat:
Spot on bro. This is exactly what i have been saying. My fone is a living testimony too. Tampered glass only offers an illusion of protection and nothing in reality. Once the force is hard enough, the screen will crack whether it has tampered glass or not. All those forces that crack the tampered glass without cracking the screen is because the force was not hard enough to have affected the screen in the first place.

Boss, I quite disagree. Order those 3,500k+ tampered glasses from reputable brands on AE and you'll change your opinion. They don't crack around the edges, distort the clarity of the display and offer the advertised protection.

Tiger2020:
and i have only used 2 TG on my nearly 2yrs RN5,not that the first one was bad but because i felt like changing it to a more fitting one

Am surprised why the relevance of tampered glass is down played too my brother

Folks against TP glass should rather use original, high quality tampered glass like Nilkin, not those 500 bucks type and see the difference.

It's just like someone using 50 bucks gold circle cōndôm & saying sekx with protection is not sweet Even cóndōms sef get levels, when lambskin cōndôm is like skin to skin

HQDesign:
Thanks but Pointek doesn't have the Note 8.
I don't want to just walk up and down that's why I need someone that sells it.

Fine Brothers had it last week Wednesday that I was there. Am sure you'll be redirected to another seller if it happens they've run out of stock too.

HQDesign:
Hi.
Please is there anyone in Port Harcourt that I can buy the Redmi Note 8 from today?

I urgently need one today before lockdown commences tomorrow.

Go to the following shops at Artillery; Pointek, Fine Brothers etc

Deeni131:
To be frank, I have been using amole screen for long without having any changes in my vision but now just less than six months of using lcd on redmi note 8, I'm facing blur vision.

Like someone suggested go get your eyes checked. It's probably due to extended use of your phone daily especially during this lockdown period.

Do you observe breaks as you use your phone?

busuyi44:
We have found alternatives to the delayed Redmi Note 9s..

Does it come with SD 720G chipset? It's not just the design that the 9s waiters are looking forward to

freeAgent99:
Come O, are you people trying to discourage we people from buying phones with Amoled screens?
I've been reading some scary sh*t all through, from screen burns to screen bleeding and what have you

You try small in cooling my mind sha...

But can someone please give me(us) a genuine review of the pros and cons of the Amoled thing, as per personal experience.

Anyone, please?

Personally I think it all boils down to luck. Both issues you highlighted above affect both screen techs respectively. AMOLED screens suffer burn-in while LCD screens suffer screen bleeding. Much like you've the back axle vs front wheel drive debates in cars.

But then a person may see an issue manifest in his screen even unboxing his device while another will use same model for donkey years without any issues whatsoever.

Please let's not start an AMOLED vs LCD war, we've been through this topic uncountable times.

Both screen tech has it's own merits and demerits which their respective fans are already aware of.

Use what works best for you

madgoat:
118K for RN9S its better to just get Mi9T in that case

Exactly, but that is a reseller and not officially from Jumia. Theirs won't be that pricey

AirVaans:
Ignore the Price, Jumia be doing the most as usual ....But the good news is that Redmi Note 9S is now officially in Nigeria

I beg to differ. Yes the seller may have some units in stock but this is definitely not the official channel.

When Jumia gets it in stock it'll be officially sold by Jumia Express and not some 3rd party seller.

Edit: Seen your second comment on this

Mckandre:
did u even read the second definition of flagship? Nd see how contrary its with ur assertion.

Boss, I thought we've passed this already? As it stands now whatever a person can afford is his/her flagship. It doesn't matter what the OEM chooses to call it.

Cheers and stay safe

Bahddo:
lol.

Nah, you still don't get my point. The Webster screenshot I sent earlier you didn't get past the first part of the definition.

Seems things get lost in translation with all the back and forth debate. Take a look at your Paddy's screenshot and what I stated earlier?

These are all marketing terms to justify the various segments of customer needs. It's not cast on stone that a flagship must be a single device.

Stay safe man, over and out.

Bahddo:
'high-end' != 'flagship'

You are talking about high-end devices but it's okay though, we can agree to disagree. The subject isn't worth the argument.

That word high-end was created by OEM marketers with respect to market segmentation. The flagship itself is a high-end device.

Just like social stratification, device categories are mainly split into 3;
entry level ->mid range->high end etc Along the line subcategories were created within these 3 categories.

Don't let fancy marketing words throw you off.

fibonacci2526:
I don't know how I can explain to y'all that a company can have more than one flagship device at the same time. Quoting the literal meaning of flagship from the dictionary doesn't always apply to phones.

The S and note series have always been known as the flagship devices for Samsung. Can you tentatively say the s20 ultra is better than the s20,s20+ in all ways or that the mi 10 pro beats the mi 10 in all areas too? OEMs produce flagship devices tailored for different people.

Lol, the dictionary actually explains it like you did on the first sentence.

festwiz:
Thanks a lot bro. People tend to misuse the word for any high-end device.

True, OEM marketers have been throwing up fancy words to push their sales thereby confusing consumers.

But let's not debate just for the sake of it. The word "flagship" is a naval/military word which implies the ship carrying the Commander in a naval fleet or group of ships flying his flag. This can also be used to correlate the meaning when used on a product or range of products.

With these few points of mine I hope I've been able to prove to you that a flagship is not necessarily a single item of a product released within a product's life cycle?

Bahddo:
well, technically he's right. Flagship is THE BEST from an OEM, the leading phone in terms of features and quality same way a literal flag ship is a side's main or most important ship in naval warfare.

When a new set of phones are released by the OEM with better specs, the new 'best one' becomes THE flagship, and the former is relegated to terms like 'last year flagship'.

There's technically only one flagship at any time, and although many people interchange 'flagship' with 'high-end' or premium', they don't mean the exact same thing.

I don't think Samsung follows this rule since they released the Note series. We both know they max out the top S series and Note series of every given year so you can't really say it's just 1 flagship device per year.

Other OEMs too have long abandoned the idea of a sole flagship per year.

Psychodavidovic:
Pretty stable. But I'd recommend waiting for the next update that drops in like a week time that addresses the current bugs.

I'll just wait for stable release that's expected this May then. I've had enough of AOSP

BoluwajiPieters:
I still don't know why Sammy will do an exynos variant of their flagships though when they know it'll still fall below in some aspect of performance when compared to their SD alternatives.

Profit maximisation bro. They usually offer different chipset based flagships of same model to different markets.

SD versions usually go to America and EU markets while Exynos mostly gets released in... You guessed it right Asia, MEA markets i.e. Middle East and Africa

Very smooth narrative. Peter Drury got me there

Elslim:
O yee of little faith...

I'll still pick the 9s over it, call me faithless

Follow this guy's advise below. At least then you'll be running your WhatsApp tv with the power of a PC processor and RAM

Please is eleme junction part of the lockdown?

It should be, that's still a part of Obio Akpor LGA

OP finding the right partner is the most arduous task ahead of you, do that and you would have solved half of your worries about getting married.

Why not start by genuinely entering into platonic relationships with single, amiable, working class & matured ladies with a view of taking it up a notch higher if it hit the right notes?

Keyword is right and not perfect coz non is perfect.

segunmelvin1:

Frustration is written all over you when you resort to insults on ordinary phone discussion.

You must really miss those ashawo joints so bad due to the lockdown, do accept my sympathy weyrey
