Good day house. I want us to discuss about cloud gaming in Nigeria. I have subscribed to Boosteriod and also played on GForce Now (Trial version). Personally I prefer Boosteriod because there is no need for VPN unlike GForce Now. Though I noticed a major issue with latency(ping) when playing. Please is there anyone here who is conversant or have used these platforms or any other platform. How did you do it and are you still using it. Please let's discuss about it.
I don't belong to any party (though I have a candidate I wanted to win and voted for) My Big Question now is this. I participated in the election and observed the process to vote. First you verify that you are in the right polling unit then BVAS is used to verify the voter, then you are given the ballot papers to vote (AFTER VERIFICATIONS) then you cast your vote and your thumb is marked. (I stand to be corrected but this is the process I passed through to vote). So why is almost all state results have cancelled results due to vote voting. Please how is it possible to over-vote after observing the process. Please I need enlightenment on this matter.
Good day good people of nairaland. Please I need help with my FIFA 19. The stadiums are dark. I tried setting video calibration but it wouldn't even move to calibrate. Any help please
TheGameYard: Hi guys! Finally I was able to out the issue of black pitch and poor rendering behind me following simple online steps which I'll arrange properly here to guide you too.
I currently use a Lenovo G50-80 with 8gb Ram, Intel Core i5 (5500 HD graphics. Which makes it a 5th generation) AMD Radeon R5 (M330) 2GB vRam
AMD is so stupid that it doesn't detect games of high performance by default. The GPU just stays there like it's for decoration! I've always considered why.
What I did after gathering knowledge all around; 1. Switched my Power plan to high performance 2. With this the AMD GPU was able to light up and was now running. Which it doesn't before now 3. I then went to add FIFA 19 to my AMD control center, and did some settings I found on this YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=as2Pl9kJ5tE 4. Voila!! My FIFA plays without lag and I enjoy the gameplay especially when it's connected to my TV 5. Always launch the game through the AMD catalyst control center
Thanks for standing by. From yours truly, The GameYard.
Please I am facing the same problem in 2022 and your video is not available on YouTube anymore.. Your help is needed please.
Good morning house. Please I need a smart tv 32inch. I am an amateur in tvs I want something that wouldn't give headache and parts are readily available. I was considering the infinix tv.
I have a neatly used Redmi note 10s with receipt, cartoon and original charger. I want to swap with either Redmi note 10 pro or mi11 lite. I will add extra cash.

Also to mention using the 33wat charger of my Note 10s is very fast charging the s8+ almost the same charge time. One other thing I have noticed. Because of the bad screen I charged and left my s8+ and the battery drain slow. A whole week just checked today and saw its 16% left. I was surprised to be honest
Lovepeacetrust: Bro honestly it depends on what you want from a phone, you've got to narrow down your needs into whichever brand offers it best. I'm using an s8+, and I love the phone, I've been opportuned to operate a note 10s but haven't used one as a main phone and I've got to tell you I'd still pick Samsung. Now here's why.
1. The screen: You have to use and see it yourself, it's so damn good even till this age, the redmi is just not to it's level in that aspect, a 2960 x 1440p versus a 1080 by 2400. Every single thing looks better on the Samsung, even with the glass they used, samsung used corning gorilla 5, while gorilla 3 was used on the redmi. It's really eye candy coupled with the infinity display, omo in 2022 it's a screen that Samsung can sell to other top flagships brands to use because it's that good.
2. Design: Now this goes two ways, first the build, I'm always tempted to use my phone naked sometimes and I do so more than often, especially if you get it in an eye catching colour, the phone is well crafted trust me, build quality is superior to that of the 10s, for the second part, it's the UI, it's still smooth to this day, I wished it got one more upgrade but it's still running one ui 3.0, and I really like it, it's a personal preference thing but I still prefer it to miui on the redmi, the miui is good too, but I love how fluid one ui is.
3. The processor: Now let's get real here, you'd be in a conflict here with the helio G95 and the SD 835, but the 835 is still the more powerful chipset, now the G95 is newer so it's more optimised with Android 11, power consumption is better on the G95, for the cpu, ram management and the likes, I also can't say for the redmi, I didn't pay much attention to that, but for the Samsung, I can tell you 4gb of ram still offers good ram management, I honestly don't find my apps closing on me, sometimes heavy games when left for about 30 to 45 minutes can restart, other apps stay in memory and I can open up to 10 apps, for gaming, I haven't gamed on the note 10s so I can't say, for the s8+ it's fantastic with a caveat, the phone gets warm when you're some minutes into the game, this happens with games that you set to highest level of graphics, it's runs perfectly well but it's the heat that's the problem in those high settings.
4. The battery: Another area for concern for most android users, let me just say this, I'm perfectly okay with my s8+ battery, yes after gaming I wish it wouldn't drain that much, but for normal use, chatting, social media, watching videos I'm satisfied to an extent. I can't compare with the 10s battery because I didn't notice the battery level when I handled the 10s but it's definitely going to have a better battery, my s8+ battery was never like this, when I got it, the battery was shit, I was like I can't do this, I had to change the battery, when they removed the battery that was inside, it was a Chinese battery, I had to change it to an original s8+ battery, and now the battery is very fine, initially when I changed it, I was averaging 10 hours screen on time without gaming no capping I still have the screenshots, it was that good, I knew the battery I got was original, so it depends, if you see people complaining about Samsung batteries too much it's either they're not using the original ones or they're using original ones that are worn out, either ways, I'm okay with my battery life the way it is.
5. The Camera: To round it off, let's compare stock first, no long stories here, the s8+ wins, I've compared both of them hands on before, both photos and videos, the s8+ is better. Now if we're to compare them with the gcam, that's something entirely different, if I'm being honest gcam can make any phone produce good shots even if the stock camera is whack. But for me I still prefer the s8+ gcam no bias here, maybe because I'm looking at the pictures on a quad hd screen versus a 1080p screen, I'm not sure, but the photos I compared looked sharper by a bit on the s8+ , but don't take my word for it, it might look that way because of the resolution of the screen I'm looking at it from, the note 10s with gcam takes great shots, I'm not taking that away from it, but these are just my observations, if you're opportuned you can test them yourself.
So let me just say this, my s8+ isn't perfect, I wish it has Android 10 or 11, it's last update is at 9, I wished the battery lasts longer even if I'm fine with it, android users would always want more, I wished the heating when gaming on graphic intensive games was less, also when using gcam for a long period, it heats up, I don't know if that's how gcam does for other phones but that's how it is for my s8+.
So there you have it, for its age, the s8+ is fantastic, a 2017 phone, that can still hold it's own in 2022, let me just list a couple of things you can enjoy with a Samsung flagship like the s8, it has wireless charging, iris scanner, heart rate, blood oxygen and stress level sensors, a pressure sensitive home button on screen like the ones on the s7, and the iphone below X, only that the button isn't physical, a nice headphone jack coupled with dolby atmos, if you're an audiophile it can run high fidelity headphones, the speaker is actually impressive to me, honestly, even if it isn't stereo speakers, sounds crisp and loud, the bass is okay for a single firing speaker, I compared it with an iPhone x, the bass is better on the iPhone but surprisingly louder on the s8+. I think that's all I can remember. This is an extremely long post for your question I apologize, but I hope it helps you in your decision making.
Gracias.
Thank you so much for this. I noticed all these before the screen went white on me(screen bleeding). That was even the reason I wanted to fix it. Even graphic intense game like ghensing impact was enjoyable on s8+ and the display blew my mind off
Good evening. Please I need expert advise. I have Redmi note 10s I bought last year and this year I got a Samsung Galaxy S8 plus though with screen issue( I would need to change the screen). Please I need an expert advice on which phone is more powerful to use as my daily driver and which to let go (sell). The S8 plus bags an impressive flagship spec but is an old phone but the Redmi bags a mid range spec but latest. Which can I settle for between these two phone and why.
Arabella21: You can’t get Redmi note 10 6/128 for 100k The 4/128 was 95k but it’s even out of stock What you will likely get now is redmi note 10 5G 4/64 for 100k or redmi 10 6/128gb for 96,000
