I sold the phone away, merely seeing it was depressing. It takes the whole night to charge it for up to 80% from zero. And the problem is not the charger cos it fast charges other phones. I borrowed other fast charging chargers, still the same problem.
Hmmm....okay. It may have been Port issue.

Let me use this ample opportunity to ventilate my dissatisfaction towards this brand of phone called Techno. The last one I bought was Techno L9, it was sold to me for 35k. I cursed the day I bought that phone. Once I download any new app or music.. I am damned my battery level won't exceed 5% again even if you charge from now till infinity.I took it to them ,after waiting for a day they flashed the phone and gave it to me. It happened repeatedly until I became friends to some of the staffs. The one that broke the camels back was when I found out that my battery has started swelling.They have to advice me to get another phone.i sold it, Now Iam using Gionee M5. I suffered eeh

I bought infinix note 4 around late last year for 55k. After using it for less than one month, the fast charging stopped working. They told me I need to change the panel for 35k. I just walk away from their so-called Carl Care in anger and bitterness. I vowed that's the last time I will touch anything tecno, infinix or itel again. I am currently using redmi note 4x and I feel like slapping myself for having used tecno in the past.
redmi na the real CHINA

Story for the gods. Even a brand new car can malfunction or breakdown after payment from the car shop.
All the Infinix I ever used and currently using havent been fixed for any issue.
My Note 3 pro is still breathing and soon be ready to be given to a new owner for Infinix Zero 5.
By the way my first Tecno was Tecno F5. Used. Never fixed. Sold and upped to Infinix Hot Note. Used. Never fixed. Gave out. Upped to Infinix Note 2 Pro. Used. Never fixed. Sold. Upped to Infinix Note 3. Used. Never fixed. Sold. Upped to Infinix Zero 4. Used. Never fixed. Sold. Downed to Note 3 Pro. Warming up to up soon to Infinix Zero 5.
I'm a Proud Infinix Fan. #BigBatteryAdvantage #ValueForMoney #Affordable

I keep telling people to shun all these tecno, Infinix etc, they thought I was just been naive. I only go for brands with track record. If it is not Samsung, I go for IPhones. For tablets, I use IPad. For tvs, air conditioners etc I use LG, Samsung and other reputable brands. They might be slightly expensive but 10 out of 10 times, I get value for the money spent. I am currently using a Samsung phone that was bought 2years ago and till date, it is still on point. Never took it for repairs for once. I am about dashing my younger bro this current phone and going for another Samsung or iPhone soonest.

I want to be ur younger brother bros

Been using my redmi note4 since October 2016 and nothing has happened to the phone.

lol... Tecno, infinix and itel phones are everywhere here. Only Gionee is not available. I prefer Samsung phones but their battery life discourages me. I think Redmi note 4x should be the best option for now

I bought techno l8 and in less than two months it packed up went to the office and was told to pay 33400 for panel, sent it to my kid brother who repairs phone and he repaired it with 500

. please what do you mean by mediatek phone, how do you know that phone is mediatek, please explain. thanks


Mediatek phones are phones that use the mediatek SOC (system on Chip).
By SOC roughly means the array of CPU,GPU( Graphic Processing Unit) and other processing unit in the phone hardware.


In simple terms you know how laptops are either Made with Intel Cpu and others made with AMD.
Mediatek is like the AMD of phones.


Mediatek are cheap SOC hardware made for cheap companies that produce phones with generic specs, eg Tecno, infinix , Gionee.
1. They have limited performance and speed,most are still based on 2012 arm cortex A7 just with overclocked CPU.


2. They hardly get update cause the chip come together with the software from the mediatek company,
So basically all these phones have same firmware just different skins and themes developed by the phone manufacturers.


3. They get obsolete fast ,a mediatek SOC can only accommodate improvement in app demands for a year.
After a year they get very laggy.
Samsung s4 5year old snapdragon/exynos is still very smooth and efficient even with all the improvement in app demand.

All these shortcomings are the major reason the SELLING POINTS OF MEDIATEK PHONES ARE THERE EXTREMELY LARGE BATTERIES.




Which are the better SOCs?? >>>
Snapdragon, Exynos, Tegra , and Apple cpu(which is manufactured by Samsung)
