Bros, when your talking of phone please don't involve Tecno in the midst of the old mama's collection. These old mama are they brands of Samsung, Apple, Nokia, Motorolla, Sony Ericsson, etc, for this few names of brand are too good to be overcome. Lets talk of Nokia. When other phones invested in the Andoid it invested in Microsoft which was later bought but now it is of the Android operating system group of which the market can't hesitate to welcome the big old mama into the game. |
