Pricing is usually the main factor, most buyers put into consideration.
If network providers gave out handsets on fixed time contracts in Nigeria, we possibly would all own Samsung S8+ & Iphone 7 +.
So cost for me forms the main factor. Why buy a Samsung S8+ for $900, when my Umidigi C Note only cost me $130?
I do not require all the extra functionality they claim the more expensive devices offers. My phone to me serves a basic function........

You are right. That was the point I tried to communicate. Your points are succinctly put too. When I got my Xiaomi, I was almost moved to tears because I felt Samsung had been cheating me the whole time.

As things stand, I'd get an Huawei, Xiaomi or Oneplus at the expense of a Sammy device even if they sold at the same price as a flagship. Somehow, I've gotten so used to Samsung devices that I now find them boring.

The Xiaomi I'm currently using represents my first departure from the Samsung lineup since the S2 (used till the s6 edge). So I kind of find it refreshing for a change.

The build and quality is more or less the same. I'm an Android enthusiast, so the iPhone is a no-no.

Lexusgs430:


If the Umidigi Crystal Plus sold for $350, who would not take a gamble?

Ahhh, at that price, I'd be the first person on queue.



Who no like better thing wey money no kill.

Likewise, started off with blackberry and feel for the advert and popular mentality into the jaws of samsung.
My stray out of Samsung's world into Umidigi's world (initially had a hiccup). But this bloatware free umidigi c note is so fluid and very different. The best way to describe it is like climbing out of KIA into a BMW......
In my eyes now, going by the general perception, This KIA is my new BMW, and I am surely enjoying the ride so far.........
This other players in the smartphone world are really changing the game. Gone are the days when we could easily justify paying $900 for a smartphone......

Haba Oga, you would be the second person on the queue (I would be in front of you).......
I would happily take the gamble on $350........

Hahahhahha. This your analogy no be here o. KIA and BMW .

Far gone, boss. As in, I couldn't have put it any better. Thanks to the advent of the Internet and online retail services. They make buying a lot easier. Otherwise we'd be stuck with tecno and infinix as alternatives.

That would have made me stick to Samsung all the more.

Which is why all the Apple's & Samsung of this world are feeling small heat.
Their marketshare is slowly been chewed at by the Chinese alternative offerings........
The customer is surely winning with all this alternatives

Thank Goodness. I almost thought I lost my space at the front of the queue.

We don't expect to use our phones forever nah? If we use this our special Chinese devices (like umidigi), for about 1 year or 2.
We have got our $ worth already. Spend part of the money saved from buying flagship devices, and buy another good quality chinco device. Simply keep repeating the process (how would a man having the ability the have numerous ladies, want to stick with just 1 lady)?

The littering of the smartphone industry with cheap, yet quality Chinese brands has helped a great deal. If not we'd be forced to fork out upwards of $1k dollars for the quality that we desire.

UMIDIGI devices that is?

I have yet to handle their devices. But I learnt that they feel sturdily built.

If you hit gearbest, the litany of Chinese unknown manufacturers is mind blowing.....
Various sizes and varying price ranges. We are now truly spoilt for choice.

Why?

Choice

Real spoilt for choice. And I'm loving it.

And to think that these phones could be a lot cheaper were it not for our misfiring monetary policies.

I see good days ahead for the Chinese OEMs.
