I don't know why different wallpaper appears on my redmi N6 pro lock screen. I've selected the lock screen wallpaper I prefer, but it's not displaying it.

It started yesterday, it used to display my preferred photo on lock screen.

Another says "Go big or go home"

Their Nigerian fans/users are kinda tech savvy with a slightly higher buying power than that Redmi Go price. Besides, how can you have a stand at any major outlet with just one phone?
Exactly my thoughts.
I don't see the Go phone as a capable competitor for transsion's myriad of phones, gaskiya.
Forget about the processor or build quality.

Transsion's dominance of the continent's phone market share is courtesy of our economic realities and average psyche. I respect the founder of Transsion in that he has a brand for virtually each sub segment of the low social class which invariably forms the bulk of our population.
Any brand that will challenge them will be as present, at least, as tecno/infinix/itel/ at the grassroots which will shoot retail price up. Any phone shop in Nigeria that doesn't have heavy display of Tecno/infinix/itel stickers is still playing. Infact, some of them can be taken for Tecno offices.
If gionee couldnt do it lipsrsealed

The best segment Xiaomi could have targeted is the mid range segment. They could have targeted this segment and crush it. If apple can shine with its line of products. Transsion is not competing in the flagship segment sef. They know it's not for dem. Lol

Their coming or not, flagship users aren't affected. I know lots of people that can't use something other than Oneplus. They don't need service centres or adverts to be fanboys. That's the interesting thing about this segment

NB We're discussing market share and not product quality or value for money. The fact still remains that no N5 phone can be as good as a Xiaomi phone of N5 but this is Africa where what inform our decisions and thinking is beyond the obvious. Only those that sell phones can relate

Note 4x is a very good phone and the battery is great too. I still an average of 8-9 hours SOT and I've been using it for 11 months. But instead of the Note 4x why not go for Note 5 AI

If stating facts amounts to being hacked, you're right.

I have had to gift phones to few people in recent times. It was only one of them I gave xiaomi. Others appreciated Tecno more which doesn't mean it was better but that's what they "Know" and already admire in people's hands over time. Be persistent with falsehood, people will take it for truth, it's psychology. It was a bonus for me of course... I spent lesser cheesy
An average Nigerian phone user will go to phone shop to buy "the type of phone their neighbour uses" or "any other one within their pocket size".

There is no one that won't want to enjoy flaship experience na, just sell them at budget prices and see cheesy cheesy


Check these instances, a man saw Oneplus 6 on me. He obviously loved it. He asked for the price as he was willing to buy. I didn't want to sound 'wasteful', I told him 50k. He exclaimed! "It's for the rich. This my phone is good too, I can't spend that much on a mere phone" cheesy cheesy
He uses Tecno K7.

A fellow had seen Samsung note 8 on me and spent quite some minutes admiring it. He loved it, no doubt. He asked for the price as usual, I told him. He said "apart from the Spen, what else can it do that my phone can't do?". He uses one 2018 infinix. This is a well read "yoot" grin. Who can afford it but he just didn't feel it was worth it.

I can go on and on. This is the case with most smartphone users in Nigeria/Africa that gave Transsion the dominating figure.

Cash constraints boss. The note 5 AI costs more than the note 4x as at when it was available on jumia 2days ago

Does quick charge spoil battery?

Not really.

Newer batteries produced are made to withstand fast charge without much degradation of battery life span.
