Kindly recommend a good phone for 170k

Pls no Tecno or Infinix. Thanks.

Forget big brands like iPhone and the rest, go for affordable and functional phones. All these big brand are hype.

Buy Redmi Note 12 or Redmi Note 12 pro.

You won't regret it. Very nice phone

Go to SLOT's website and check for Samsung phones within your budget. Ignore these people telling you to add 50k and take iPhone 14.

You would get a good midrange Samsung device with 170k and that is okay for you. A series to be specific. You are not a mobile content creator, you don't need whatever phone they are trying to sell to you.

Stolen phones are everywhere. Nairaland consists of all manner of people:

Robbers

Cult guys
Mad people
Senseless guys
Kids who like trolling
Ashewos

Very Legit Nigerianns

All manner.

Be careful!
Don't buy used phones. Nigerian Police no get joy.

Look for a reputable uk phone vendor within your street

Tell him you need Samsung s10 plus (150k max)

Out of the remaining 20k, buy groceries, satchet sweetener, floating berries/brown crunchies 10k... Buy data 5k if you want to stay happy... And the remaining 5k should be kept as emergency funds incase the groceries latter worry you for belle 😂.... don't mention

Thanks

Will I say it's wickedness or you just derive pleasure in seeing someone waste money that you can't afford. How can u waste 170k on a MediaTek G88 device. Not saying it's a bad device, but 170k is way too much for this class of phone. Xiaomi Redmi 12 is also within this class and it sells for about 110k and its way better than the one you recommended.

My recommendation: Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 5G (N153,000)

If you can put the funny name aside, Xiaomi Redmi phones are built for Nigeria's peculiar needs.

You forgot to mention that the screen cost up to 105k to repair if broken, oga buy what you'll be able to repair if broken.

I'll recommend Samsung A series.

While I would also recommend a Redmi device, there's no way that you would get that phone for 153k. I got a Redmi Note 12 Pro for 180k last month

In anything you do Abeg avoid techno and infinix phones , that amount will get you good iPhone ,but make sure you check battery life , check if it is unlocked, check if everything is working before buying . Or better still go for y9s Hauwei for its durability in all angles both functional and battery wise . You will still get change join .

Samsung galaxy S10 plus or just about 25k and go for note 10 plus

This phone is a beast but I hold my reservations from personal experiences. DO NOT FALL FOR THE TRAP!!!

The poster of this thread strikes me as an average guy on a budget and I will not recommend a 4 Yr old flagship Samsung device for him.

Reasons:

1. This is a used phone. Always remember this. Now try and picture how many hands this phone has passed through and what type of usage it has passed through. Just pray a game freak never used this phone for hard-core gaming. Point is, it's very likely the performance you get will be below the out of the box performance.

2. Most 4yr old Samsung phones have had their screen replaced and battery changed. Most likely, you are not getting the original screen or battery with the UK Used phone.

3. Even if the Samsung phone miraculously comes with its original screen and battery, I want to beg you to protect the screen from damage. Google for the price of that screen on jiji. Your body go tell you

4. That Samsung phone got its last major android software update last year (Android 12). This is a psychological and mental killer. You will always wish your phone can get the next Android update.

I beg you, don't use ur last 170k to buy a used phone o. Unless you are already hooked to the Apple ecosystem, you can get a used iPhone XR or 11 or above. No near used Samsung galaxy phones. With 170k, you can get really good and amazing mid range new phones (150k - 250k). I already gave my recommendation above and it comes with 5G as a bonus.
