olanreyman:
have you handled the phone or you are currently using it?

I have a friend who uses it. It even takes long to get fully charged.

Friedyokes:
Samsung j7 or tecno j7

Samsung.

Reeberry:
J7 is not a phone. The display is poor and lags alot.

That's what I been trying to say. That phone is an overpriced piece of junk. If that phone was made by any other company other than Samsung abs sold for that price , no one will buy it. There is nothing special in that phone. 720p display, 1.5gb of ram, sold for 75k? Ewww, crap.

Someone is here who knows how substandard J7 is to it high price.

I have handled that phone very well, I never liked it a bit. Samsung is good, but there are some phone models they produce which aren't it at all.

yasolan:
J7 is just overpriced for its specs..I love phones ..but I just have to give to c9 ..considering money factor again

[center][/center]
A good product should be satisfactory and affordable.. I give it to C9 too

Ya it takes time to charge.. My mum uses it.

Has anyone here seen the C9, not to talk of actually using it?

Naijji:



It's basically a function of the soc (system on chip). MediaTek chips are ... crap, at least compared to Snapdragon and Exynos chips.

Samsung phones generally use Snapdragon chips (paired with Adreno GPUs), or Exynos chips (paired with Mali GPUs or PowerVR GPUs).

MediaTek chips are usually paired with Mali GPUs. But then, the GPUs on the MediaTek chips usually run at much lower speeds. And then, since mtk chips are basically chips for budget phones, they are paired with budget GPUs.

Even a midrange Exynos/Snapdragon chip will very likely outperform a "high end" MediaTek chip.


Simples

mehn oga u sabi phone wella... Thanks for the reply

greenhulk:


of course Samsung flagship phones will kick the sh*t of of any mediatek phones in gaming performance. Samsung use snapdragon or exynos for theor flagship phones, these are high end procesors.. but that is not the processor found in the J7.

And don't get it twisted bro, Samsung phones are not the best in terms of gaming, even some low en phones perform better. Watch the video below and see how Sony Xperia X kicks Samsung galaxy s7 as$ in gaming. S7 has 4gb of ram while Xperia x has 3gb. S7 runs snapdragon 820 while xperia x runs a lower snapdragon 615. Yet the Xperia performs better in gaming. Sometimes these samsung phones are overrated.

According to that video, Sony x beats s7 in terms of gaming performance

Yes that's what I'm saying. Samsung phones are not the best for gaming, in fact Samsung phones normally have one big flaw or the other. Galaxy s6 had serious memory leak that u cannot open 4 apps at the same time without them reloading. This wasn't fixed until marshmallow update.

You're not comparing like for like. S7 got a quad HD screen, the Sony got a Full HD screen. The S7 is pushing much more pixels. And more importantly, the games are not even being played at the same setting on both devices. Look at the rendering of the shadows on the S7. Now compare that with the rendering on the Sony. The S7 is obviously pulling much more details. Simples

With the Game Centre on the S7, you can change settings of games on your phone. You can force all games to render at 1080p, instead of 1440p.


And in case you're not aware, the S7 is the first phone (maybe only phone as at now sef) to come with the Vulkan Api. This means much better graphics for your games. This will become more prominent with Android N

AnnabelR0se:
What is on your site is camon C8. U look like person wey smoke weed

Most definitely, you are the one who just smoked weed....

Hmm...lemme tell you what I know about both

Processor...both phone uses same processor architecture coz both are cortex a53 jez different manufacturer and clock speed...c9@1.3 while j7@1.4 and almost the same benchmarks result as regards other mtk6753 like infinix note 2

Display... The c9 has a fullHD while J7 is HD which makes the camon better

And as for camera, there is no need to deliberate on that cox the c9 is surely better

Price...the camon c9 is less compared to j7

UI...the c9 is marshmallow while J7 is lollipop buh have better chances of getting update which makes the j7 win in this area

Durability...Samsung phones are durable and have more premium feel than tecno phones....

So it's up to you but as for me I will choose the c9 and keep the remaining change for myself..#user of boom j8

So C9 is already out and i was even planing of buy C4 abi C5, maybe i hv to wait for C10 which i knw wil b out b4 tomoro

okoheemmanuel:
I prefer snapdragon phones to mtk phones

Just like others prefer Intel to AMD

Techno phones are all the same, the only thing that changes is the number of ram and processor... Overall performance wise it's the same thing

Doubt it oh. Sony and HTC phones are usually quite expensive in Naija, probably cos they lack a significant presence here.

You considering going for a used phone? You can get something quite good

FrozeBABE:

lol where can i get the Samsung C9 or is it a 2in1 device?

Lol.. That would be a nice combo

Imagine if two companies were to merge to manufacture phones, what will be the outcome?

Saw the spec of Samsung j7 and I saw 1.5gb. For 70k plus!!!! God forbid.

I'm using a 1gb Samsung phone atm and it hangs seriously.

Overrated crap.

am not going for j7 anymore, the price is too exorbitant for its specifications... But I really need a phone with snapdragon plus exynox processor

Don't know if anyone here knows the current price of Samsung note 3

Hackerjay:


Sure..
But wait, baby you're to sexy and exotic for my liking.... Quote me no more

Is that what you want?

Thank God u sef know. 1.5gb coupled with touchwiz = disaster. Even Samsung phones with 2gb of ram still struggle. J7 is an overpriced piece of junk.

Still flexing my 2 yrs n 6months s4 lik say tomorrow nor dey, still saving 4 note 4 or note 4 edge... samsung all d way

It is either Snapdragon or Exynos and not Snapdragon plus Exynos. And if you need Exynos then you should know that you need only Samsung cos it's their self made chipset for only Samsung.
