On the positive side the battery of the hot s has been very impressive. For the first time since 2010 I'm actually experiencing good battery life on an Android phone. I've used galaxy s2, galaxy s3, galaxy note 2, HTC one m7, lg g3 and galaxy s6, all of them have poor battery, with galaxy s6 and s3 being the worst. I charge my s6 up to 3 -4 times a day. But with the hot s I use it a whole day and I still have some 30℅ by 9pm.

Today I decided to give the battery a good test. I started using it around 9:30am at 100% on a heavy use. I've been streaming music through Bluetooth speaker all day and have been using the browser. I've had over 4 hrs screen on time and I still have like 40% left. If that was the s6 it would have died at least 2 times lol. My main gripe about this phone is the poor camera and mediocre performance. It is practically impossible typing on chrome browser because of heavy lag. While typing in messaging apps like WhatsApp or hangouts it becomes better.

All I see is hidden posts, what are these buddies spitting?

Okay.

The best device you can ever use is an iOS device. Make no mistakes.

youngice:
You don't pay na
After that 1 dollar
I've been using if for so long eh

For how long have you been using it? Bear in mind that the trial period for Apple Music is 3 months. So the fact that you have been using it for so long doesn't make it free. After the 3 months trial period, charging commences and if by chance your card has insufficient balance you will be denied access.

Immorttal:
how is this even possible.

We make the impossible possible. That's why it's Apple.

They call us Isheeps but you forget that they are androids already programmed to run at a static and slower speed, so ignore them.. Allow them feel those using an iphone are out to oppress them, its more of a good than a bad thing.. You forget it is an online forum where anyone can even claim to be zuckerberg immediate direct cousin...

Abi ooo

The other day someone said he uses both iPhone 6 and Infinix......I said he must be Bipolar

perryy:
Hello oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. You talk like a kid , I must say. Even your complex, wether inferiority or superiority, is worse than the guy you attacked . For example, I don't use an iPhone, does that make me poor? Haha haha! Whoever can afford a Samsung galaxy note 5, 7 or s6 , s6 edge can afford an iPhone of any iteration . But only those who buy things based on rationalism and not just to belong , will always take those Samsung Galaxy over the iPhone. That most Hollywood stars use iPhone is just marketing strategy that was created by late Steve Jobsand most of those stars got the phones free of charge and they are to show them off anywhere. That is a huge way to advertise boy. If you watch closely, Samsung has adopted the same strategy and that is why they are leapfrogging iPhones in sales now; though Samsung usually produce better devices . Yoh can't compare Samsung's super AMOLED screen with the iPhones shitty LCD screen . Can you? My wife has an iPhone 6s and I use a note 5 but she wathes movies on my phone. If the iPhone 7 s didn't offer any change in screen, she will switch over to Samsung and that will be s7 edge .

So, stop seeing people who criticize apple for charging premium price for a not-too-good device as poor wretched people . What is LCD doing in a phone in 2016? Why a meagre 2gb of ram? I know iOS is light unlike Android, yet there has to be some underground apps storage for the iOS to use multiple apps, and that is where Android kills the iOS when it comes to multitasking . Google is your friend .

Thick heads will never learn and that is your basic undoing. You do not understand the rudiments involved in phone performance. You believe in RAM algorithms and processor clock speeds. You buy a phone based on the advertised capacities. You do not compare Android to iOS in any contest. Whether your wife uses iPhone 10 or you use Note 15 is your prerogative, not my bizness. The aim of this thread is to educate people that came with their pen and paper and obviously you came late so shift! You wanted to use an iPhone 6S plus when you have a poor knowledge of how iOS operates, can't you see you were trying to belong? You should be ashamed of yourself for not knowing the simplest thing that an iPhone can do. You obviously wanted to buy it because you see others buying it. Who dahell told you that you have to download PDFs with iOS devices? What is iBooks there for? And to nail yourself you went ahead to make research from low seekers who probably did not even know anything about iOS. Clap for yourself. Bravo you made the right choice. For the records PDF is the simplest task that the iPhone can handle because the damn phone comes bundled with iBooks which easily grabs all pdf files in sight. We keep telling you people to learn but you all will be screaming iPhone is not meant for Nigeria.

Why will a bloke just believe that buying an iPhone makes you ostentatious, when did buying a phone that pleases you become a sign of luxury? Nobody says only rich people buy iPhones, even the latest Samsung flagships are more expensive than the iPhone. But your friend went ahead to say using iPhone is a sign of show off, what do you call that? When you feel everyone using an iPhone around you is trying to oppress you. Did you even read his posts before making your clandestine remarks? People need to get a life and rid themselves of such spirits of low self esteem. We all go to the stores to buy phones that please us. I do not even use an iPhone if you must know, I prefer the iPad and that's why I got myself the fastest of the series. I intend to upgrade my current phone soonest and it's either the S7 edge or the iPhone 7. If I get the S7 edge it will be simply because of the gear VR. Some people are brain dead when it comes to rational thinking and that is purely unfortunate.

Esdb3:
that you don't know the difference shows you are the un-informed irritating ostentatious person who spends money for no other purpose than to show off. Offence meant!

There are so many reasons why it is not suited to this country. 1. Is the inability to buy it on contract like most people in America do. There are so many features on the phone that you can't use here like there. You certainly can't play pokemon Go on it in Nigeria. How many Nigerians care about cloud storage to use the feature on ios. The i-phone needs you to constantly use data. Over there they have a lot of wifis around so your phone is mostly connected to the internet through wifi and mobile data is cheaper and there is also rarely cases of poor reception in the metropolis.

It is easier to download paid apps there and apple certainly didn't make i-phones to be 'charged and used' like we do here. Having an i-phone doesn't make you international you giant Arrow. It is just a device like the infinix or gionee. The fact that it is over-priced, doesn't mean it is better. The blackberry porsche is one over-priced bullshit and it is bullshit.

I-phones were not built for your poverty stricken under-developed country. I mean have you seen the ratings of your surfing speed in the world? American averages 15mb south korea is on another level. The entire africa can't boast of an average of 2mb. That in my lingo is defined as shittt! And shittts don't get good things. Don't get me wrong the i-phone is shitty but doesn't mean it is meant for your shitttty third world! It is an expensive shitttt! And that song was sung by one of your shittty artist in your shiittt filled music industry.

Finally in a country and continent where HBO doesn't have a channel, where Show time doesn't give 0.5 fucccks about setting up a channel, it is going to be hard for you to watch your favourite tv shows! You'll need a phone that can download them. Guess which phone is best for that...... Not the i-phone! To watch ur series you'd have to get and android or any other, download the series then download i-tunes onto ur laptop(god help you if you don't have one) and then transfer the videos there before u can watch on ur i-phone.... I'm sure apple wasn't making the device to make life impossible for people.



Think before you run your fingers!!!!!!

This is an abysmal display of idiocy. You have been caged!!! I feel sorry for you.

So in your deluded mind all American citizens buy phones on contract? The iPhone is not meant for Nigeria but the Galaxy Note 7 of around 430k is right? You have an appalling hate and disdain for iPhone, your mind is already eroded with poverty and you will go to any length to kidnap any successful person around you because you hate success. You belong to the same class of people that see the iPhone as a god-phone so how can I help you now? You come here to type without any reasoning at all. All your arguments were dead on arrival and I could easily knock you out without breaking a sweat. You should know better than to trade words with me because naturally I'm a slayer! That is actually not the point, I would have loved to educate you but you are too jumpy, you know nothing yet you are obtrusively boisterous. I weep at your ignorance, so Pokémon go is meant for only iOS right? Oh yes, Pokémon go is the only game available in the AppStore, and yes all Americans must play Pokémon go as a condition to use the iPhone.....You seem to think everyone has a wretched mind like you that is why you will say data is not affordable in Nigeria. I am on an unlimited data plan so I enjoy my iDevice to the fullest and I expect anyone trying to purchase such device to know that it is data hungry. No matter how you try not everyone will buy the Tecno or Infinix phones, not everyone will buy the Samsung, likewise not everyone will buy the iPhone. Your reasoning is so low and you think you can speak for every of the 150 million Nigerians. Quit the show of folly and grab a seat to learn bro. Believe me, you know nada. You are obscured and trapped in ignorance, people like you have low self esteem and suffer from a high level of inferiority complex and your post has vindicated me.

Just yesterday I streamed a 2hr movie from beginning to the end with absolutely no lagging at all, like I said you are only limited by what you know, you are still tied to your past and you have refused to grow with time and realise that we have 4G LTE networks in Nigeria already. It is purely a matter of affordability. No one is forcing you to use an iPhone so why are you hyperventilating just to make a pointless argument. Hit the market and pick the phone of your choice, who gives a rats ass what you think, you don't even exist in the world of forward thinkers because you are so fvcking backward! Easier to download paid apps my foot.....what is the limiting factor for downloads? Does the Internet differentiate paid apps from freewares. Guy go back and equip yourself the more then come back and face me. You know you already self destruct with all this your fallacious brouhaha. You are just a noise maker and an angry wretch. Don't bite me Niggār, bite your government. I ain't gat nothing to do with this shïït.

Top celebrities in Hollywood endorse the iPhone, so who are you to call it a shiitty device. The most celebrated OAPs in America love the iPhone, the top musicians in the US use the iPhone, so who cares what Nigerian artistes think anyway. The Opulent and high net worth individuals around the world even go a step further to customise the iPhone and add an extra layer of luxury by adding external finishes to it like gold plating or diamond encrusting. A gold plated iPhone 6 with Swarovski or VS1 diamond crystals will cost upwards of $7,000, that is beyond you!!! Some people will ONLY buy the iPhone with those peripherals embedded.

To watch series you'd have to get an Android? Which planet are you from? Most TV sitcoms are available on the go with your iPhone and I just told you that yesterday I downloaded the entire Narcos season. Somehowpee watches the entire GOT series with his iPhone, Netflix is everywhere already, Showbox is your friend bro, who cares about HBO! You are one of those individuals who think the iPhone cannot exist without iTunes sync but meTellyu bro, hell NO!!! You obviously have not been following this thread, you just jumped into the argument from nowhere like a junkie that is high on morphine. Get a sit, sit calmly and learn and stop barking around like a starved Rottweiler!!!

I'm out onto the next one!

youngice:
iTunes is synced to specific Apple IDs
To use another iTunes is to lose all data and start from scratch( only for songs, pictures and tones)
But the people here don't do research
You can transfer songs with media monkey
You can exchange apps with iTools
Apple is cool but don't be miserly with data
Ps Siri calls me daddy

Meet a more intelligent, interactive and responsive siri in iOS 10.

Rozan10:
Bro abeg you go sell ur Hot s at a giveaway price to me... As u na big boss, edakun epp a bro out. biko. I don tire for my bb storm.

Blackberry Storm....my first Blackberry device . It even has a feature present in today's iPhone 6S, adaptive touch that Apple calls "Force touch or 3D Touch". I still don't know how Blackberry lost their lead. But that's life....some years ago Ashafa Powell was the world fastest runner but today it's Usain Bolt

greenhulk:
Spotify does not work without an Internet connection.

If u are still interested then go to settings on ur iPhone, click on iTunes and appstore, click on ur acct, click view apple id, enter ur password and then u will see country /region. Then change that to US.

It does actually. But you have to upgrade to the premium account and download the songs to your local storage. That way you can play them offline.

In the screenshot you will see some albums I've downloaded.

somehowpenis:
i missed this thread man but good one .

You the boss!!

Na you be boss ooh

You operate at a higher frequency

somehowpenis:
you entered MTK?? .. It is finished.. I too can't wait for the iphone 7 too... It should be available in Nigeria around October

Me sef surprise as him talk say him buy infinix .
Maybe one of his younger brothers in the University just advised him that "Bros stop wasting money on all these expensive phones, the same thing Samsung can do, Infinix can do and Infinix is cheaper."

But I'm happy my brother has tasted both worlds and seen that "Adidas" is different from "Addidas"

Kfed4ril:
Boss did u jail break your iPad?

NO

After doing a comprehensive research I have discovered that I do not need to jailbreak my device for any reason. Everything I need I can get so what do I need a jailbreak for? I download movies and TV shows at will. I stream movies at my comfort. I download premium Music Albums easily and I get notified just on the first day of release. Narcos Season 2 was pushed out on September 2nd and I got it that same day, even my folks in UK asked me how I did it. All my devices are connected with home share in a central hotspot. Why will I jailbreak? What am I looking for again? I download Full HD YouTube videos with resolition as high 1080P. If there is any Apple accesory I cannot get from Nigerian online market place I hit Apple store directly. I even have apps on my iPad that downloads any video from any site irrespective of the format. I don't see why I will jailbreak a device I got for almost 300k. That is not a wise decision.

I'm sure a lot of money would have changed hands for Tinubu to suddenly start supporting a Nobody like Segun Abraham. Some people will cry this night sha

I always knew Tinubu is not to be trusted! Backstabber toh bahd

I just pray God vindicates Akeredolu today and shame the God father. I hate God-fatherism.

Ssalk:
Well if u can afford IPhone fine but it didn't make you more superior to people using other phones. Me personally I used Infinix hot note 2 for more than a year now and the phone still dey kampe. The truth is most Nigerians used IPhone for show up especially kids which I think are much in this thread. The other day I sent money for my kid sister for her school up keep the next thing I saw was iPhone 6 with her. Tomorrow such kid will come to nairaland and start making mouth....lol.

Don't allow the poverty in the land to consume you. Break away from it and refuse to be poor. Cast and bind any spirit of poverty around you. Only poor people talk the way you are talking.

ehimeayeni:
Its when you go abroad you will know the difference. i live in Canada and before i came i was using Infinix phone in nigeria which i brought to canada. My guy that phone could not get some apps i want to use here for like the app to transfer money. in Canada and US the 80% of people use iphone 15% use Samsung. I hardly see any other phone than iphone and samsung.
i wanted to print a picture from my infinix phone here in canada but it didnt work from the photo printing company. my brother shame catch me. Somoebody ask me where the phone come from. i had to send the picture to somebody iphone

80% of UK, US and Canada residents use iPhone. In fact some of them don't know any other phone exist apart from iPhone

And when they see you with some strange phone brands they be like 'which planet is he from"?

Bossmd:
Its ridiculous when people keep saying its not advisable to use iPhone in Nigeria. What is wrong with Nigeria? Is it not the same services that AT&T offers that Etisalat offers? What is the difference between T-mobile and MTN? Are they not both Telecom operators. The only difference that is discernible right now is the fact that the American operators offer LTE services and Contract plans. Apart from that there ain't no differences. iPhone is a smartphone with data abilities as well as GSM capabilities. You people should go to school and stop smoking weed all around the streets. This is the only way you all can learn and make your parents proud!

jclassiq:
apparently you are making your parents proud by the use of iphone.

Only folks with above average intelligence can comprehend that.

cmecproblem:
I got to understand why the iphone is so expensive when i got my first, right after my samsung crashed because i played "modern combat " on it. The iphone is for those who can afford the ios lifestyle, basic data and media file sharing and buying all other stuff like music n games. Everything you need is in the appstore. No phone runs as smooth as the iphone.

This is the sermon we be try'n 'o' preach.

Rankine:
bt guys i tot d xender apps z used to transfer files frm android phones or phones wit d app to iphones and vice versa

Yes, Xender transfers items to/from Android and iPhones with ease but when it comes to iOS there is a clause, any item you receive is "jailed" within the Xender app itself. If you can live with that, then Xender is a good option.

PhonePlanet:
its qualcomm snapdragon NOT qualcomm and snapdragon. qualcomm is the name of the company, snapdragon is the product

and huawei does not use snapdragon

That was a typo...you should have known. It was in the line of Exynos or Snapdragon. I am not versed with Huawei products, by the way when did they start manufacturing phones. I only used their modems. I guess everybody wants to have a taste of the mobile business this days.

greenhulk:
It's an app for streaming any kind of music u want. Just type the name of the song , artist or album and start listening. U can also create playlists according to ur mood.

And a very good one at that. Just make sure you have the 128GB iPhone or iPad and your music library will wow you.

truthspeaks:
U neva still answer d que. Wats d gain in buyin an iphone. Am rili curious to knw

There is actually something wrong with your post. You don't use the word "Gain" when referring to items like mobile phones. Theses are not investments they are perishable items that depreciate in value after purchase. So I'm still at a loss what gains you expect to make from using a mobile phone.

That said, since we are all here to learn, maybe you should tell me what gain you get from using an Android phone.

ikp120:
Sorry for that Boss.
I only knew Steve o.


I just googled Tim Cook.
I was like Tim Cook ni Tim Boil ko.
We need to beg that man to release iPhone from jail. I guess he has forgotten they jailed iPhone years ago.

But iPhone is the smoothest device on earth, but paying for music and not being able to use USB to collect film from my sister's laptop is not funny at all.
Boss is there any hope?

All this is as easy as ABC without jailbreaking. There are so many apps today that do that for you and even more. iFunBox is an example of such apps. Just install iFunbox on your sisters laptop. You don't even need to connect your iPhone via cable, just connect your iPhone and your sister's PC to the same wifi. Then transfer files with the speed of light. With this method you can transfer a 2GB file in less than 15 minutes. This is 2016 bro. The world is moving, don't be left behind

RitzyPrince:
seriously? But I've been using iPhone for 7yrs now without the use of my laptop....so it's either you don't know what you're saying or you ignorant.

You can actually use an iPhone without a Computer. Of course it's a mobile phone for crying out loud. But for people that really want to explore their phones like Android users switching to iPhone, you will really need a PC. Android users are used to messing with their devices. Some even remove the OS inside the phone and put a customised version, some will put S7 engine inside S4 body . However for ladies who just need their phones to take calls, play music and take selfies, A Computer is not a hard prerequisite.

Phonefanatic:
Bossmd and iPhone madness are like........ Who get that pic abeg

IPhone is not economical you keep spending to buy almost everything that is supposed to be free. If you've got the money go ahead if not get android and rest.

Guy you follow me reach here again?

Alvin007:
Dude...I don't know who u are...but trust me...u can't go on this lane with me... I'll stop here... Enjoy.

Lol.....they have want to start
