See the picture I attached. I took the screenshot when I placed an order. You can see the cost in USD as 112 and also the naira equivalent.

I also used Google to convert and it gave me that exact value. I believe Google should be upto date with the current exchange rate. 460 is what Google is still using. See screenshots below.

If I use 750 that is still about 84K. And we all know redmi 8 Pro costs way more than that
How do u ship directly to Nigeria ? Also what percentage of the product price is the shipping cost?

I saw the price tags on these phones on AliExpress and I was shocked. These are phones you can not get below N100,000 in Nigeria. So I started wondering maybe they were fake or refurbished.

I went through the customer reviews and it was very OK. Some of them even displayed the carton and everything inside it as brand new.

Guys what do you think? Those of you that have bought stuffs from AliExpress before should throw more light on this.

See pictures below; They are very many, I just decided to pick this ones.
scroll down you will see something like an arrow pointing right
if you click it you'll see
brand name
network
ram
ROM
...stuff Like that

JUST GO AND CHECK ITEM CONDITION
Cos ALIEXPRESS offers NEW, REFURBISHED, USED, RENEWED and all a have different prices ......signing out✈

I was also going through the website when I saw the phones and their specs, I was wowed, I was actually planning for a phone between 100-120k but now that I found this, I started thinking, will the price change before checking out.

So I put a call to someone that normally get musical equipment through aliexpress platform and he informed me that the price i see is the exact price I'm gonna pay, that they don't add additional charges.
He showed me a lot of things he bought from them.
He only said when the goods arrived, if you choose post office, they will charge like 100-500 naira only but if you choose other courier it is free.

So let me send the pictures of the phones I want to order. I also need people who have correct Intel about these phones to advise me if those specification are accurate cos the price is very cheap.

Also, will the phone work in Nigeria?
Thanks in anticipation.

I hope you not thinking this is a Samsung s23

Cos they're fakes.

Don't buy

The pictures you attached is NOT a Samsung phone. I believe you are looking for Samsung but that is not a Samsung device. That name is just a generic name.

It could be singsong S23, or SamuelSong S23, the senior brother.

But one thing I'm sure is that this is not Samsung S23.

Those who have been scammed before can tell.

I actually saw some cheap phones on AliExpress too but I know those aren't real phones. If those guys search further, they will find real Samsung S23 with the original price which is almost close to what it's sold for in Nigerian stores.

I wanted to order a Samsung S10 plus but I don't trust AliExpress with the prices I'm seeing. I'd rather pay the expensive amount than to be crying that I've wasted my money.

Op.... Hence the surprise you are witnessing. Aliexpress deal with the final consumers ignoring middlemen and retailers that will purposely add much more to what they bought device. So AliExpress is the big deal. Just have your card available and shop with them.

If you want to pay it will revert to usd, when you use your bank atm they will charge you at 750 per dollar, do the math then, that's the actual cost.

Leave what all these guys are saying about prices changing, they obviously don't buy from AliExpress .


The price doesn't change. The only thing you should be worried about

1. If the phone is real. Sometimes they ship fake and products different from what you are seeing. Then you will start battling AliExpress on how to get your money back. Though most times they give you full refund

2. If the phone's network will work in Nigeria.

3. The shipping cost and how long it will take for the phone to get to you.

4. Customs problems.

Bro, can you help me inspect this item (screenshot attached). The price in most Naija stores is roughly 120K. But you can see how low it is on the site. I am highly tempted to go for it.
