Reason I Dislike Tecno Phones by Emmaway(m): 4:21pm On Jun 17, 2016
These are some problems associated with Tecno device, this isn't just for their Android devices, but it cuts across every Tecno device.

1. Hardware (Screen Problems):
Tecno devices are prone to screen damages if not well handled. You can call 10 people using Tecno devices and you'll find out that 1 has a broken screen.

2. Software (Virus Problems):
Tecno mobile OS is prone to virus. Yes!!! I said it, Now majority of people using Tecno device are youths, why? because of it's affordability. These youths are Adventurous! Take for instance, He/She sees a paid app on Play Store, now rather than paying they resort to Google and search for it and download not minding that the app contains malware. If you're a user of a Tecno device who's online 24/7, be on the lookout because your device might soon get infected.

3. Hardware (Charging Flex Issues):
Due to the low capacity of the battery of most Tecno devices (except for their latest flagships), users will have to charge their devices very often which in turn damages to Charging Flex.

So here are some problems associated with Tecno Phones, personally I prefer Itel devices! Ehen!!! (Guys be like; this Itel marketer don come again ohh) but hey! am not. They're really improving as the days go by, especially with their Latest devices (those with 1GB RAM), and I prefer their devices to that of Tecno, that's my opinion, you're entitled to yours, (You can argue on your Timeline, and I recently saw an article which stated that they're about to launch a device with 5000mAh battery. Bottom line is, I'm not saying you shouldn't buy a Tecno phone, but get ready to face the issues I listed above.

Everything you spewed up there was out of hate and not true...

1. Screen problem : my Samsung Galaxy grand prime fell on a stone and the screen damage was terrible, I still remember my old tecno p5 that falls always, but as unbelievable as it sounds, it never got a scratch on the screen, and my boom j8 has been falling since I bought lol, cheesy I've been using this j8 for 2weeks now, the screen has not even a single scratch.. Have you tried smashing an iPhone 5 and smashing a common tecno p5?

2. Software problem: you must either be from the 80s or you are just retarded.. Is tecno the maker of Android?? And that software /malware that gave the tecno device virus, have you tried installing it on another tecno device or even a Samsung mobile to see if the problem persists? If you don't know, not even Microsoft Windows or Apple Mac os is secured from malwares...

3. Charging flex: dude like seriously? You attribute that problem to only tecno...

My piece of advice:.. Stop hating, make a little more money, and get yourself a good tecno phone and not terrible clones.. Then come tell us your experience.. Else JUST SWERVE

The above mentioned issue is general...

I used to think Corning gorilla Glass does not break grin
My colleague sent her One M9 + for Change of screen which will take 3 weeks tongue

See slot has introduced screen insurance, why will they do that if it is only tecno phones that breaks

You prefer Itel, then you using a tecno phone with Itel logo... grin kiss
Re: Reason I Dislike Tecno Phones by tomiwa20(m): 7:12pm On Jun 17, 2016

Re: Reason I Dislike Tecno Phones by khalhokage(m): 6:59am On Jun 18, 2016
Oga o, you have no idea what you're talking about, for the record I don't use a Tecno phone I never have, but your points don't make any sense.

1. Every mobile devices screen are prone to breakage from iPhones to Samsung to Tecno, Infinix and Itel, if you're worried about broken screens then you should get phone with shatter proof screen, these aren't phone that come with Corning Gorilla Glass screen though those are scratch resistant screens.

2. This 2nd point I don't get, Tecno phones don't have a special less secure Android version installed in them, it's the same Android that's in every other Android device, you said: "
majority of people using Tecno device are youths, why? because of it's affordability. These youths are Adventurous!
" That's like saying Toyota Hiace buses are prone to damage because most of the people that use them are public transport bus drivers.
You can't blame a product for how it's used, Tecno devices weren't meant to be rooted and have every malicious app on the internet installed in them just those buses weren't made to be driven 24/7 year long on every porthole Nigeria has to offer.

3. Now this 3rd point is the worst, 1st of all what's"charging flex"? 90% of these devices come with their micro USB ports soldered directly to the board, they don't use flex, then there's the fact that Tecnos aren't the only devices that come with low capacity batteries, the increase in battery capacity only came in recent years, if you're complaining about Tecnos batteries what will you then say to BlackBerry and iPhone users? even the older Samsung devices have rubbish batteries.
Every OEM has improved in the battery dept and Tecno isn't left out, that just where rechargeable battery technology is at the moment.

Now that you've made me type an essay I just want to say one more thing, take your Itel and throw it in the nearest river, even if I'm not really a fan of Tecno, i at least acknowledge that they've been making some really compelling devices lately, Itel on the other hand, I've never seen an Itel device i like or trust.

Tecno has come to stay so demarketing wouldn't stop some of us from buying their products. They are ways to advert a product not comparing and spoiling other brands to have competitive advantage.

Your write up lacks context man


Rephrased:All touch screen devices are prone to screen damages if not well handled. You can call 10 people using touch screen devices and you'll find out that 1 has a broken screen.

Any virus that affect a tecno Android device can also affect any Android device with the same version of Android as the tecno.

Charging flex? I don't know that charging a phone too much can damage the phone. Even if it does maybe after four to five years of usage
Also, every OEM has more low battery capacity devices (1-3000mah) than high battery capacity devices (3500mah and higher)

Very cheap marketing strategy, their are still some reasonable disadvantages u can bring up rather than this b*llshit

Pls don't ever compare itel with tecno, thou i don't use a tecno phone but it is an insult to tecno. It is like comparing granada with barcelona grin

To me itel is not an android phone: very poor ui, slower than java phones, ugly designs, inferior hardwares, dull screen like all these black and white tv's. Itel devices just like clone asha 200 with larger screen, still expensive.
I can't buy itel even if sold for 1k
