Nigerian customers for the very first time are seeing just how much their elegant phones really cost. While we have actually all been trained to starve for the most recent Apple iPhone or Samsung Galaxy device, which cost a little fortune, the truth is that you can still get a pretty advanced, good-quality phone for a fraction of the price.

Do you truly need an iPhone?

So the absolute least expensive choice in Apple world is the 16GB SE for N117,000, however, that's still excessive in my book. I truthfully cannot consider other product I 'd voluntarily change every 2 years for that sort of money.
However how about paying lower than that? There are good Android phones you can get for less than N40,000, such as the Infinix Hot 3, Infinix Hot 4 and Tecno Camon C7, and Tecno Camon C8.
Obviously, there are compromises. Purchasing a phone is a lot like purchasing a car. Prados and BMWs are extremely nice high-end brands. But if you cannot afford them, you can get a Honda for a lot less cash and still get good quality. There will likely be compromises in functions and finishes, however, remember you're trying to find worth over high-end.

Take the Infinix Hot 4, which I believe is the best gadget in this low-end classification. It does have a finger print reader, features that are basic on newer-generation iPhones.
Still, the Infinix Hot 4, which can be bought for N39,500 if you buy it through Konga, it has 4000mAh Li-Ion battery, a good 13-megapixel cam, and includes expandable storage. And that's the overall cost of the phone, so you will not need to pay over N100,000.
The iPhone is a superior brand name, and there are lots of things to like about Apple. However, the prices isn't among them.

If it pains you as much as it does to spend a little fortune on a phone every few years, then I 'd recommend thinking about a lower-end Android phone. Remember that the low end of the marketplace continues to improve. If you can hold out another 6 to nine months, there are most likely to be a lot more phones in the sub-N30,000 category with even much better specifications.
