If you have money, go & buy LG-G5 & thank me later.

It is run on Android 6, Snapdragon & 2800mah Removable battery.
I can tell you that with it 2800mah battery & on heavy usage, it last two days compare to useless Tecno L8 Plus with 5000mah & run on MTK that only last two days on heavy usage

great tip bro
so u r saying
battery first
then the RAM and ROM secondly

so it's better for me to have a 2gig ram and 16 rom with an 1.3ghz
than for me to have a 1gig ram and 8 gig rom with a 2.0ghz ryt
Bro, you can have a phone that clocks 2.5ghz processor speed and still get frustrated cos of the 1gb ram it carries.
Another name I call a droid with 1GB RAM IS "Cursed"
RAM is mostly for Multitasking and Every droid is all abt multitasking.
Every 1gb ram is terrible at multitasking. Even on PC, you can get the frustration of your life most time using 1gb.
I never recommend a 1gb ram phone except its an iPhone.

Yeah... M5 is a very good phone but considering my no. 1 factor- price, I'll get it when only when I can afford. For now, the harsh economy and high dollar to Naira exchange rate has made it a no go area.

Please get a phone with thumb print security

Its a form of maximum security for securing some app like your banking app, and other apps you wouldnt want to share with people

fingersecurity

Funny. so u think Thumbprint will stop them from defrauding your bank account if they want to? what if i disable your thumbprint supported data files from system app? won't i get access to your "highly secure" apps that you refused to share with me?

Re: What Are The Top 5 Features One Should Consider Before Getting A New Phone by Gptech(m): 8:26am On Aug 08, 2016
I'll rather go for :
chipset
Then ram
Then battery

I know we are in Nigeria but can never enjoy a slow phone with big battery. For me a smart phone must be fast to be really called a smart phone. I don't need a big battery and my apps keep closing on me when I use them simultaneously. If I need my phone to be alive all day I'll get a Nokia torch tongue

Both phones are 2 GB RAM

They both have Quad Core processor, but gionee m5 mini has a higher speed at 1.3ghz (compared to infinix note 2 which is 1.2ghz) - just a tiny difference though.

They both have 4000mah battery (cool)

But Gionee m5 mini has a 5 inch screen while infinix note 2 has 6inch screen - which means infinix note 2 will drain it's 4000mah battery more than gionee m5 mini will drain it's 4000mah battery .

So I'll go for gionee m5 mini grin
Wrong, note 2 has 4040mah

Nigerians they want all the best a smartphone can offer but not willing to spend big....no wonder these Chinese companies keep producing self destructive smartphones at hard to believe cheap price, how on earth will a company produce a phone with 2gig Ram, 5050Mah battery with fast charge, 13mp camera, 5.5" screen, fingerprints scanner, OTG capability etc. all for less than NGN 40K, and you want such phone to last, seriously? undecided

Jesus! Bro. i know you love your lg phone but this is too much.

u just quoted.. a 2800mah device running a Snapdragon CPU will last longer than a 5000mah MTK device?
even if u compare both CPU with the same exact battery spec, will they ever have the same battery life?

and did u say ur LG uses 2 days with that Battery? The Love you have for this phone is too much. either u hardly touch that device at all or u are somehow related to Lie Mohammed. May God forgive you.

You cant bro.. you grant the app the priveldge of being an administrator. So the app itself can neither be forcestopped nor uninstalled..

Just again. Thumbprint is one of the most secured security as no one can have acess to your fone without your consent

SPOT ON.

Dullahi:
Build Quality
Processor (SoC)
Software
Camera/Audio
Price

My favorite phones that fit this criteria: HTC 10, OnePlus 3, The New Moto Z duo and ZTE Axon 7.

That is where you got it wrong! The fact that they sell it cheap doesn't mean it's low quality. And besides how many Chinese phones have you used to conclude they're all self destructive? I have use tecno, infinix, letv etc and I've never had an issue with them neither did they self destruct in the course of usage.

And tell me which phone is not manufactured in China? Is it Samsung or iPhone, they all contract the manufacturing to Foxconn and other Chinese companies because of cheap labor.

The so called "high profile" brands make as much as 200% profit on phones they produce because they're brand names.
Xiaomi, letv, teclast, tecno, gionee and other major Chinese brands make less than 80% profit on their phones because they're common brands and as such there will be competition. The phones look like they're cheap but don't let them fool you, it's same components that are used in production based on specs though.

The rice you eat at tantalizers is not different from the one you eat at mama put. Na just "packaging" and design

The thing is most Samsung, LG etc phone users don't know Jack about phones, they'll say anything to defend their wasted money even if their defence defies technology odds itself. How can a sane person say a 2800mah battery last longer than 5000mah? It's either the phone is always on standby(he hardly uses the phone) or hes lying!
