crafteck:LOL. The issue is not about market share but durability abi? I responded to a comment about chinko brands (i.e brands from China from upcoming OEMS abi) being unreliable? My point is even reputable brands like LG Phones can be plagued by factory defects which can span generations of a line (Like the G series). Peace |
crafteck:Chinese brands like the LG G series that from the G2 to G6 were prone to bootloop issues abi? That LG has succumbed to a lawsuit and is offering refunds for G4s and 5s. Abeg lets hear word. |
Dexter247:More of over saturation. Due to ezcessive post image processing. More megapixels do not guarantee better images that is why a nokia n8 of 2010 takes better images than even the camon cx due to better optics. As a photography enthusiast I can say sensor and optics are more important than than megapixels. The only exception to this is the lumia 1020 (still got mine) with a 42 mp camera and a sensor comparable to those on DSLRs. To buttress this my galaxy kzoom takes better all round images than the huawei p20 pro with its close to 80 mp configuration because it has a better sensor and optics comparable to a mid range compact camera. Peace P.S. I did a comparison with a friends P20 pro on my last vacation |
freemanbubble:Blah blah blah. You people just yap. Tecno has not tried to penetrate the american or european market formally. That is not their strategy. There focus is on the sub-haran market where they are doing excellently. There is also no restriction on their products in the USA or EU.People in the US and UK can buy them if they wish through online stores. I have seen folks (non nigerians)with infinix phones in the UK. Fact is tecno and infinix make good devices for their price range. I am particularly impressed with the X series and Zero Products especially and 5. As an avid user of phones I can tell you the popular brands are also prone to issues and factory deffects like tecno. Just go user forums online. Peace. P.s. I dont use either currently |
millomaniac:Thank you. these guys keep yapping about bigger ram and fail to realise that Android needs more ram because it is inefficient and power hungry. IOS and windows on are superior in this regard. I am a proud Lumia user and my daily driver Lumia 640 XL with I GB ram is smoother than a lot of 3gb ram Android phones I have used. I don't even want to compare them with my 950 with 2gb ram. |
MrsNwaAmaikpe:You began sensibly but revealed your true colors with the ending. Gold Digger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Darkseid:I disagree. With a 1 terrabyte storage with a 6.17 inch screen it becomes the ultimate media and gaming portable device. As a movie freak with over 3 terrabyte of movies my favorite TV shows and movies can be stored on the device for repeated viewing. With the ram and graphics chip all my favorite graphic intensive games are also covered. You can also store every official document on it for easy access.For me it is just perfect for today. |
escodotman:Pitiful analysis that lacks logic . Please counter my points with constructive arguments not who funds the UN. The EU is still in on the deal. Like Trump pulling out of the Climate Change deal (and other countries maintaining it.) The real loser here is America for reasons mentioned. I am yet to see valid arguments against my points. All i see is "he dares compare himself to the president of a country" on foreign affairs". Fact is Trump is not an expert on foreign policy. Study his statements on world affairs and you will realize his ignorance on general world affairs. Fact is most of Trump decisions (like Leaving the climate deal, moving US embassy to Jerusalem etc) were against the advice of his cabinet. If the thought that a man once he becomes President/Head of state becomes an expert of foreign affairs(including Idi Amin and such) makes him more knowleadge able than an accadamic in his field of study gives you Joy. Enjoy it. Read wide. Think free. Use logical reasoning. Peace. |
MONITZ:Thank you for this analysis. Sadly most people get their "information" from western propaganda media and take misinformation as the truth. The magnitude of western hypocrisy never ceases to amaze me. From recognizing an illegitimate government in Ukraine( because it served their long term strategy against Russia) to recognizing rebels(terrorists) in Syria for same reason. However her media will paint it as fight for democracy and freedom to the uninformed. We were bombarded everyday with news on Syria and how the Assad Regine is carrying out attrocities on citizens but there is silence on Yemen where the civilians are killed daily because the main player in Yemen is Saudi Arabia - their Ally. Believe western media at your own peril. Peace |
escodotman:Good luck to you too. AS YOUR LEVEL OF COMPREHENSION PREVENTS YOU FROM UNDERSTANDING. ATTENDING UN MEETINGS AS A PRESIDENT OR SPEAKING WITH OTHER HEADS OF STATE ON PHONE DOES NOT MAKE YOU AN EXPERT ON INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS. I CSNT BELIEVE THESE YOUR RESPONSES! I TRUST IF YOU BECOME A GOVERNOR OR PREDIDENT TOMORROW YOU TOO BECOME AN EXPERT ON INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS? LOL. I AM HAPPY YOU MENTIONED PRESIDENTS HAVE DIFFERENT AMBASSADORS AT THEIR CALL FOR ADVISE. PLEASE THESE AND DIPLOMATIC STAFF IN THE FOREIGN MINISTRY ARE THE REAL EXPERTS WHO ADVISE PRESIDENTS- AND I HOPE YOU KNOW THESE PERSONS USUALLY STUDY HISTORY,DIPLOMACY OR INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS TO ADVANCED DEFREE LEVEL? IN OTHER WORDS USUALLY ACCADEMICS? IN FACT I REST MY CASE. WHY NOT COUNTER THE POINTS I HAVE MADE IF YOU HAVE REASONABLE COUNTER ARGUMENTS RATHER THAN BE FIXATED ON MY ANSLYSIS OF TRUMPS COMPREHENSION OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS WHICH IS A FACT AND IS DISCERNABLE FROM HIS UTTERANCES ANR ACTIONS TO DATE (MIND YOU I CANT SAY THE SAME THING ABOUT OBAMA). LIKE I SAID- READ WIDE.THINK FREE. SIGNING OUT. THE FUNNY ACCADEMIC. P.S. THE COMPARISON TO MY STATE GOVERNOR WOULD HAVE BEEN INSULTING IF NOT THAT IT WAS SUCH A JOKE! STILL LAUGHING OUT LOUD! |
hoMegas:My appreciation. Finally an intelligent post from an individual who actually reads and not spout rhetoric from western media. The Iran deal is the best solution at the moment for slowing down Irans nuclear weapons program. A military option is not feasible and even sanctions did not work in the past much less now that the EU,Russia and China are going ahead with it. Trump lacks an understanding of strategic diplomacy and is probably primarily motivated by Ego. Anyway the biggest loser of this his action will be America until another administration reverses it. Peace |
escodotman:I amazed you still do not get the thrust of my post. Being president does not automatically make anybody an expert on international relations. Ronald Reagan was an actor before he became president. Did becoming president and meeting other presidents make him an automatic expert on International relations more than a havard professor in same field. I hope you realise that all presidents have advisers (usually accademics like myself) to advise on foreign policy? Donald Trump may be a billionaire which I am not but until the day he writes an approved PHD dissertation he is not my peer on International affairs. It is this kind of mentality that make people become servant to their peers or lesser. Again the stock market crash is absolutely normal after such an announcement. However it will bounce back in less than 72 hours (remind me then if I am wrong) as market forces realign accordingly. However my point as an impartial observer remains - The US is the biggest loser in pulling out of the deal. It has lost further leverage in middle eastern affairs (following the proposed embassy relocation to Jerusalem and the failure in Syria) and also among her allies (The EU) who along with Russia and China are going ahead with the deal. Finally Trump's threats of maximum sanctions against Iran will not have a significant impact since Iran's largest trading partners Europe and Russia are not imposing any. Finally in anticipation of this Iran has also dumped the dollar in all Financial reporting which will further reduce impact of any further sanctions. In conclusion as an unbiased accademic trained to analyze issues objectively I maintain that pulling out of the Iran Deal was ill advised (there was no justification since Iran was keeping to the deal as certified by the IAEA) and also strengthens the position of China and Russia on the International stage. Furthermore placing blanket sanctions on European Firms doing business in Iran will be counter productive on America as their businesses will also suffer and further erode trans Atlantic relations. A few companies such as aerospace and deffence companies with sensitive technology and partnerships with American Companies will leave but others will! find workarounds to do business in Iran since their countries are still in the accord. That's the way it works. Read wide. Think free. Peace Also for your information China is the world's largest economy by purchasing power and second only to the US in GDP - which she is set to surpass by 2030. Our world demographics are changing but you will not see the trend when all your data is from Fox and CNN. Lol |
escodotman:It is a pity that you could not understand my narrative. And yes I am more versed in international relations than Donald Trump is and will ever be since I am an Associate Professor in International Relations and Diplomacy. I do not need to meet world presidents to be an expert in my field of study. So being a US president automatically makes you an expert on world affairs? You are the funny one? Serious though my analogy was neither pro or ant-america. Diplomacy is all about arriving at a win-win. As a pointed out a nuclear Iran is inevitable as they already possess the technology. The deal is geared towards slowing down the programme, improving Iran's economy and lay the foundation for a possible shift in Iran's future foreign policy. When it comes to funding terrorism no Arab nation sponsors terrorism more than Saudi Arabia but as I mentioned America's strategic Interests (oil and strategic millitary bases) ensure this is overlooked and the western media does not potray this. For your information Saudi Arabia practices Wahhabism which is the most puritanical or ultraconservative form of Islam and regarded by even other sects of Islam as a major cause of Islamic fanatisicm. Granted Iran also sponsors "terrorists" as you label them but mind you in international relations the term is subjective as one nation's "terrorists" is another nation's "freedom fighters". If you recollect the armed groups America supported in Syria were called terrorists by the Assad Government and Russia. The point I am making is that what we are seeing is merely an outcome of the tussle for power between the three major players in middle eastern affairs - Iran, Saudi Arabia and Isreal. Finally as I have mentioned in a previous post the impact of NATO in a war against Russia is overrated. Even in conventional war without US support, Russia has the capability to overrun the entire Eastern Europe in weeks. The three countries outside the US that matter in NATO are GB, France and Germany and even combined these three countries do not stand a chance against Russia in conventional warfare as none of them have the ability to launch an invasion and can not at present capacity withstand a soviet invasion. Please research and revert. Peace |
Comments like this make me realize that most nairalanders get their information from Fox and CNN. It is naive to speak of America destroying Russia or China and Vice Versa. In conventional warfare none of these countries has the capability to totally defeat each other due to deployment and geographical challenges. To simplify the US cannot invade Russia and Vice versa as no country in the world today or in the past has the capability to maintain supply chains for the expanse of territory we are talking about. Read your military history and you will understand why Russia and China have never been conquered in History. Even a combination of two of these countries against the other will not succeed. Nuclear War is out of the question due to the Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) outcome - No Winner. Furthermore in all the comments I am reading it is amazing how many people trivialize Russia's military might. Russia has without a doubt the second most powerful military on the planet (Every military site on the planet reviewed will confirm this) and even has a superior Nuclear Arsenal to the United States. In other words comparing the Russian Army to Israel is a joke when the entire NATO alliance exists solely to counter a Russian threat against the entire Europe. However we can talk about who will win in a Proxy War - where each country supports a player in a given theater such as Syria (Which Russia won by the way) or Iran if the US ever decides to go with a military solution. However in such a war so may salient factors come into play and may not be a true reflection of the superiority or otherwise of any of the sponsors (The proxy war between US and Russia in Afghanistan in the 80's is a prime example of this). Also I am reading comments here that show the lack of information on middle eastern affairs. Israel, Saudi Arabia and Iran are the three most powerful countries in the middle east and are constantly seeking dominance over each other. The Iranian nuclear deal poses a threat to Israels's military dominance and Saudi Arabia vision of becoming the most powerful Muslim nation. Americas strategic interests with Saudi Arabia (For Oil) and Israel was key in convincing Trump to pull out of this deal. However the issue here is the deal represents the best option currently to delay a nuclear Iran (However a nuclear Iran is an event which will definitely occur in the future) which is why Obama and the Rest of Europe supported it. Stopping this deal will only cause Iran to accelerate the process to ensure the utmost deterrent against military force. Unfortunately Mr. Trump with his limited understanding of International affairs and ego (desire to overturn every Obama initiative) has fallen into the Israeli and Saudi ploy. Sadly this will only further erode Americas influence in the middle east (Just like Syria where only Russia and China are involved in the rebuilding process) and the rest of the world as the EU, Russia and China (thankfully) have announced this morning that they will proceed with the deal without the US and not impose any further sanctions on Iran. In conclusion the true winners of the Trump Presidency are China and Russia who as the US becomes more isolationist will expand their spheres of influence and ultimately (In China's case replace the US as the dominant superpower).

Whizzahd:WILL U BE THE ONE TO KEEP QUIET! I doubt you have even handled an S8 much less used one. Samsung phones do not have good battery life. I can say this from experience having used the S2, S3, S4, S4 Zoom, k OOM, , S7 Edge and Now an S8. FORGET WHAT U READ IN REVIEWS. REAL LIFE USAGE IS A MESS. U HAVE TO CHARGE UR PHONE AT LEAST TWICE A DAY with regular usage. My S8 can not last a full day with from 100% at 7 am. While my lumia 640 XL does two days easy! Get ur facts right man.P.S. All my phones were bought new. Peace! |
mabea:Then why put those entire states in your Biafra if you are not generalizing the entire peoples of those regions as Ibo's? Until you people come to the realization that your Biafran dream must be restricted to core Ibo states I.e south east it will never be more than a pipe dream. Nobody is against a dissolution of the current system but the idea that autonomous ethnic nations will agree to be subsumed under the Ibo umbrella is wishful thinking. Read ur history and find out why these nationalist dis not support Biafra during the secession and subsequent war and you will realise why history will repeat itself. Peace |
Olawalesadiq:Fela said it over 30 years ago. We did not listen and voted the "crase man" into power. A word in enough for the wise. Let us correct this collosal mistake in 2019. GET YOUR PVC. DO THE NEEDFUL. LETS TAKE NIGERIA BACK! |
It is good you said to your knowledge. Let me add to that. The kaalbari, Okrika and Ogoni also say they are not Ibo and rightly so. Oh lest I forget so do the Efiks,Ibibios,Anangs,Urhobos,Ijaws etc. These ethnic groups make up the bulk of the population in the south south along with the two u mentioned so where are the south south ibo majority u people talk about. These tribes I mentioned share no cultural identity with Igbo. It is this amongst others that will ensure Biafra remains a pipe dream. I await your response for further illumination. Peace to |
Trendinghelm:Its posts like these that are affirming my decision not to log into nairaland anymore. Years ago only pertinent material made FP now its all sorts. In todays world social media is becoming more important than traditional media in news dissemination. We don't need tripe like this to hit FP. My search for an alternative continues. Peace |
Very disappointing post. Has the situation in Libya or Yemen Changed? The slow down of Isis in Syria is largely due to Russian efforts not the US who are fixated on removing Assad? The fact that Trump is anti gay makes him no Angel nor Obama a Devil for supporting liberal trends that currently define our world. How did Obama orchestrate our current suffering? Regime change for Americas interest has always been the bedrock of Americas foreign policy. Our suffering is due to a failed socio-political system orchestrated long before Obama and will continue through trump and beyond unless we change it through internal metamorphosis. Let us learn to remove religious dogma and sentiments from analysis. Peace |
BUHARIISCURSED:You did the spell for him I believe? When will people start thinking before posting. Rather than post tripe why not reserve your inane and unfounded comments to yourself. A forum like this should be educative comments please |
ShyCypher:Can't u make ur point without being abusive? Why call people stupid because they have a different point of view? What happened to basic courtsey? You prefer a used s whatever to a brand new tecno and co right? Others think otherwise. For me I can never buy a used phone even from a friend. I love the feel of opening a brand new phone packaging and maybe other feel like me too. Secondly why would u want to use a phone for more than a year? Live and let live man. Peace |

[quote author=uuzba post=66714740]That guy said something different. Though I do not accept insulting dead people. But look at this: http://imzansi.com/the-shocking-reasons-why-nelson-mandela-divorced-winnie-exposed/ She had an affair while he was in prison and even when he came out and so what? U expected her to stay celibate for 27 years abi? Did u read that the barely lived as man and woman before his incarceration? Look her so called promiscuity does not detract from the fact that she continued the struggle against apartheid all through mandelas incarceration. Why do u think they gave her a state burial?because she was married to Mandela? She is a black hero. Please read real history books not extracts from articles. Peace |
Krissjones:Posts like yours make me realize everyday that a large portion of the human populace are actually insane. Without even studying your profile your posts reveals that if you live to a thousand years you will not achieve 1% of what she has. You can not even respect the dead. Please do not procreate. |
UNIQUEISRAEL:I feel sad for lunatics like you. Sometimes you so called Christian's are the most heartless. On such a painful topic you can espouse such drivel. One thing for sure with a cold heart like yours you will not make your mythical heaven. Rubbish |
Eagba:Even in conventional warfare the possibility of America and her Nato Allies defeating Russia is a very slim possibility due to geographical constraints. This was the same reason why hitler lost the second world war (which was actually lost at stalingrad). Russia has the capability to over run entire eastern Europe in weeks. It is this knowledge that has maintained the NATO deterrent and shapes Nato expansionist agenda. Granted America has a superior conventional arsenal but Russia has superiority in mechanized units which are key in ground warfare. Even with her superiority in other areas a total defeat of Russia is very slim due to deployment challenges. On a nuclear level Russia arsenal is superior in terms of war head capabilities(with war heads with multi target capabilities like the SSN-20 - Nato Codename - Satan) and a larger warhead tonnage.In addition america outside her strategic bomber command and submarine fleet (which Russia also has) relies mainly on Silo system for nuclear deployment while Russia uses mainly mobile units which are harder to track. In summary a total conquest of one party by the other is very improbable. It will take a coalition of the US and another major power such as China to defeat Russia totally and vice versa. Europe just does not count. This existing balance of power is known to military strategists on both sides and has prevented the our break of another global conflict. Peace |
Kophschmerzen:Thank you for this astute analysis. Many commenting do not understand these. China can hurt america more as she is Americas largest potential market. In addition key American sectors like her automobile industry rely on the chinese market heavily. In the long term with her growing middle class and increasing spending power China will need america less while America will need China more. |
Olabenjamen22:Correction. I am not a Muslim, Christian, or atheist. I believe in an order to the universe and the possibility of an all permeating consciousness. However I do not believe in an antropormophic God which is the basis of All conventional religions. Read wide, think free. Peace |
Charles4075:No big deal. We will play Europa league next season and probably win it. We are the most successful club in the premier league since 2005. Check ur records. Spurs won't win the league this year, next year or 10 years. After next season when they will still be trophyless their top Stars will leave and they will return to the mid top ten team they are. We hate no one. We just love our game. Team Chelsea for life |
haibe:Please show me the verse where the quaran says Isa is the messiah. Isa is regarded as a great phrophet in the quaran. He is regarded as the penultimate phrophet in order words the phrophet before the last prohet Muhammed (or seal of God). Please stop misinforming people and read wide. Hopefully with wide knowledge you will come to realise that all religions are myths based on ancient traditions. A study of all the major religions will reveal their similarities .NO RELIGION IS THE TRUE RELIGION. All we have are belief systems. Peace |

Well what can I say.... Goodluck.
