Xiaomi rocks, if you put Samsung and Xiaomi brand that has same configuration, Xiaomi beats Samsung even on price range. e.g. A20 costs over 50k while Redmi 7 cost less and even rocks better |

udemzyudex: @line in bold. I just did an accidental somewhat research. And how it happened is that I wanted to buy phones for a sister in Abia state and another sister in Lagos. So I called the one in Abia and asked her which phone she'll like and she immediately replied Infinix. I called the one in Lagos and asked her the same question and she said any android phone. I told her there're many android phones in the market and I don't know which one she'll like. She told me to hold-on and I could hear her ask someone, and few seconds she said Infinix as well. Yet, they have no idea I want to send them phone. I've never used Infinix phone before, so I've been wondering what is it about Infinix. I, personally would want a cheap samsung phone for them but since for whatever reason they prefer Infinix, I just have to buy Infinix for them. There has to be a reason they both prefer Infinix. By the way, anybody with knowledge about phones should let me know which 1 or 2 of the below phones I should send them. They're all in the same price range. Infinix Hot 8, 2G RAM, 4G, 5,000mAh. Infinix Hot 7 pro, 4Gb RAM, 4G, 4,000mAh. Infinix Smart 3 plus, 3Gb RAM, 4G, 3,500mAh. Samsung Galaxy M10, 2Gb RAM, 4G, 3,400mAh. |

livebyday:You study market with perception I study market with empirical evidence. With the level of income among Nigerians transition or whatever name they call them would still hold the market. Your Samsung can't sell low end device in Nigeria market with same quality. All the argument has always been high and mid end products. The level of income among many Nigerians is low. |

edoairways: I said I personally know 4 and I also saw many others. Read between the line next time. They are obviously thousands more getting Xiaomi phones. You don't need to go far check the Xiaomi thread on the phone section and see for yourself. Things are changing fast! |

Re: How Samsung Is Taking Over The Nigerian Mid-range Smartphone Market by edoairways: 3:21pm On Nov 02, 2019 |
Sultan5:I understand you very well but the reality on ground shows that tecno still holds the market. Many Nigerians still prefer them inspite of the demarketing by many on social media. Xiaomi will sell well if they study the market very well. As it stand they haven't rather than concentrate on mid and high level, they should consider low level too. Even if they have products for such level, they lack publicity. One thing I hate is spoiling a brand's image. If not for tecno would Nigerians afforb to buy android?. Was Samsung not in Nigeria market when tecno came? Did they consider us at all?. Did Xiaomi even consider Nigerian market in the first place. |

Re: How Samsung Is Taking Over The Nigerian Mid-range Smartphone Market by Sultan5(m): 3:55pm On Nov 02, 2019 |
edoairways: Hmmm I get your point. My bone of contention was you saying only few Nigerians use Xiaomi. Which is untrue as the no of Xiaomi users in Nigeria keeps growing year in year out. Xiaomi has always considered Nigeria market, have you seen the recent phone launch they did days ago releasing phones like redmi 8A which is an entry level phone for less than 40k and all the way up to redmi note 8 pro. All powerful devices with value for your money. Yes publicity can be better. But they make both low end to high end phones that are just beautiful to look at and durable. I didn't mention Techno let alone spoil their brand, I only mentioned Samsung. Sure techno phones have come a long way no doubt. My 1st and 2nd Android phones were techno. So they really brought affordable phones to Nigeria. But what made them great is now becoming their Achilles heel as they constantly refuse to upgrade the hardware for their mid range phones. Which is something Xiaomi phones can boast of. Techno and the likes hardly make any low end phones with Snapdragon chip set but the redmi 8A has a Snapdragon chip set and they still maintained the low price. Just because techno brought Android phones to the majority of Nigerians, doesn't excuse their decision to keep using low end hardware for their phones, when others like Xiaomi use high end hardware and still manage to sell theirs at cheaper rate. But agreed techno still holds the market but the rate at which Xiaomi are winning hearts and mind is alarming. Techno should be worried. Xiaomi 1st phone came out in 2011. See how quickly they've build up trust that they are now one of the top 5 best selling smartphone brands in the world. You will hardly see a Xiaomi user go back to techno, infinix or itel phone except if life happens. Because once you have seen the light, nothing will make you go back to darkness. Enough said!!! |

edoairways: Less than 40k really, thats redmi 8A. Should be on sale from 4th of November was launched on Monday this week. Below are pics from the launch.

Update is overated By the way Sultan5 Great device but bad Camera Specs. |
Re: How Samsung Is Taking Over The Nigerian Mid-range Smartphone Market by Sultan5(m): 5:35pm On Nov 02, 2019 |
tck2000: Bad camera specs Like seriously? For N36500 what are you expecting? Is the Samsung A10 that's sold for N45k any better in terms of camera specs.if you want much better camera specs go for the big dogs RN8 or RN8 pro. This is an entry level phone. The specs are still pretty good, you can check YouTube, the camera performs really well. |

Mozzyb1: You have comprehension problem, I'm not talking about their flash device. I'm talking about when manufacturers were still producing 2.3 inchs smartphone with button,there was this Samsung open and close ,and this other small Samsung running on Android then, they were expensive,more than 40k ,not until Tecno came out with Tecno N3,P3 etc 3.5 inches and running on Android. They were the cheapest then,and a lot of people bought it ,in fact Tecno made a lot people use their first android phone. |

Sultan5:Well is it camera better than Infinix Hot 8,Hauwai Y7? |
Re: How Samsung Is Taking Over The Nigerian Mid-range Smartphone Market by Sultan5(m): 6:32pm On Nov 02, 2019 |
tck2000: Very nice, well if you check online you will see that the differences are not that much just slight differences, while infinix hot 8 takes slightly better pictures with the back camera, Redmi 8A takes slightly better pictures with the front camera. Hauwei y7 does slightly better in both aspects but that's to be expected giving the price. But overall the differences ain't much. |
