Sir I disagree. Tecno marketed the Pouvoir 2 for heavy users. The slogan was "always on". The LA7 was a crossover from the now defunct L9+. The L9+ was a 3G chipset too sef, MTK 6580A. A 2015 chipset. I used both phones.

The Pouvoir 3 plus and the Pouvoir 4 should tell you all you need to know.

The only good thing about the Pouvoir series is the battery but when you see that the MTK 6737 and 6739 are built on 28nm, that completely destroys the essence of the battery sef.

Let them tell consumers the truth about their phones and price it accordingly.

If a premium user knows that Camon 15 Premier (Helio P35) is a budget device and the SD636 on the Infinix Zero is better, which one do you think he'll buy?

If a gamer knows that the Helio P60 on the Nokia will give him a better gaming performance than the P22, he'll choose according.

Tecno doesn't put their processors on their advertising or on the phone cases. Only RAM and ROM. The same as Infinix.

But when Infinix manage use G70, they emblazoned it everywhere! That's the dishonesty. To me then, who gives a Bleep about processor? Or what did I care about the quality or size of sensor pixels, na megapixels concern me. Ignorance bro and they encourage it.

I can't help but a agree with you but where you got it wrong is the advert of processor. You see, in marketing, there's what you call selling point. If a Tech savvy person really needs a device, off the top of my head, he should do an in depth research, TECNO didn't hide processors and whatever you need to know anywhere. They are an open book and you can check for there specs on any blog. So Where's the dishonesty coming from?

atheistandproud:


For an average user you mean.

This is a phone I have used oh. What is your yardstick of "very good"?

first you need to understand TECNO's target market. They make device to fit the average user, not heavy user. For an average user, it is very good.

I don't know what you're trying to achieve o but the Pouvior serious is very good.

Ablyz:
Good day,narialander pls how much is pop 2 plus in your side?

Andrew87:

Hello Guys,

what do i do here...

I owned a Tecno poviour 2 lap7 which has issue with the mic, and i needed to get it fixed so i made a reservation for repair service and a code and date was given to me.
However, before the date a call comes in from the carlcare customer service from this number 09099367640 requesting for further details about the phone which i gave and i equally told them that the phone still has warranty on which she agrees with me that it will cover the mic problems. 
Moreso, she suggested that since that i am in VI and their office is at Ikeja maybe i should used a pickup delivery service to come pick it up which i agreed on, the delivery services was sent to me and i called and they billed me N1000plus fees and i agreed and came picked up and sent to Carlcare services in ikeja as agreed.
This is where the story change from Carlcare people, this number i believed must be from the repair department 08169052904, the guy said he has seen my phone and that my touch pad and one other are bad and need to be change too and that will cost me N14,600, i expressly rejected it telling to please leave that as far as i am aware the phone only is the mic. he said i cant do along the others MUST follow suit but to explained to him that i dont have that kind of money with that he should please repair the mic since the warranty covers it, but insisted i must do the what he say or should be up my phone from their office, and drop the call on me. This is after paying N1K plus for pick up.
i demand justice to this ill treatment as this phone has my major banking app and other sensitive documents and information with security as they demand that my phone comes in unlocked.
Name of the phone is TECNO POUVIOR LAP2 L7.

did they tamper with your phone?

Mike4S:
This question looms in my mind after buying one. The system is slow and sometimes remain still.
Even my BlackBerry10 is better.
If you have used the phone, what is the way forward?

if you have alot of files on your phone then it will be slow. The battery is what trips me most

The battery of this device is just out of this world.

This is a nice move. Kudos to both brands.

MegaPlayBoy:
that phone has reached its expiry date
fixing it will just give it more issue
abi is it not tecno again

I get that you don't like the brand but how have you solve his problems?

godamtem:
techno pop1
the phone do off by its own immediately after I loaded.. also if I inserted my Sims it will off on its own.
engineers tell me what I can do to it.
have restored the phone still same thing

might either be the panel or battery. Visit Carlcare to get it fixed.

LehreMi:
Hello people.

I've been a fan of redmi note 8 for a while and I really want to get the phone this time around.

What's the price tags in your location?

What's your general take on the device?

I'd love all inputs, thanks

There's a Xiaomi related thread you can refer to.

beinstein:


You can't force transsion down his throat. It doesn't work that way.
He said "no" to transsion, and I'm with him on this, so your opinion is useless here.

thanks God you called it my opinion, how is an opinion related to being a command?

Gamesound:
Hello wonderful people.
Please which Android phone can I get with 30k? I want to get a phone for my kid brother. Not Transsion device o.

that Transsion device you're rejecting is your cornerstone

ZesusHVWritter:

The problem here is. You can't say the pouvoir 4 pro is an entry level device because it's priced as a low-midrange device though from hardware to build, everything about the device spews mediocrity in high volume.
It will take an extreme level of ignorance or sentimental attachment for anyone to purchase a Transission device and expect anything other a lowend performer.
Permit me to give you an adequate criteria on how to qualify a Transission device.

Every Transission device is 65% less than its sold for.
That is to say.
If a Transission device is sold for 100k, its actual pricing is 35k according to worth.
So for every Transission device you purchase, you have lost 65% of your moneys worth even before unboxing it.

how did you come with this realisation? Where's your face to prove this?

festwiz:
As a gamer and videographer, this device makes me puke.

An SoC that cannot handle 1080p60, cannot handle CoD Mobile at low and 25fps, cannot handle real-time preview on Lightroom, doesn't have a FHD+ screen, etc.

Before talking about what this phone can do, it's 'cannots' would've filled a notebook.

People like you OP are the problem. You consistently mislead the general public with false information and it's hurting the brand. That's not to say the overpriced plastic is much for worth in the first place.

Where is the 'misleading' in what op poste abeg? Just point it out.

jom28gy:
where is the address

imei.info oga

ZesusHVWritter:

The only thing you can be certain of, is you not doing better than I did. I made suggestions... What have done?
The thread ask for opinions on two phones, I made suggestions in line with the two products of phones the op wanted just better and different models.
What have you done?
This how you go to exam hall faulty people's answer why you have a blank sheet.
I attempted the exam question, you just came here to find faults.
The transformer in my area was taken away few months ago as a result of fault... Any suggestions on what I should hug instead?

Oga marketer, op needed info about the two phones, not the ones you're marketing. You just de shalaye unnecessary

Karex81:
To be honest what's the difference between camon 15 premier and infinix s5 pro apart from branding, camera and Android skin. Helio p35 for 96k .
When you can buy redmi note 8 pro with Helio g90t, Huawei y9s with Kirin 710f, redmi note 9s with sd720g and keep small change. But but but tecno\infinix is affordable. Transsion marketers over to you

the devices you mentioned, are they of same price range? Excluding the redmi note 8pro

jom28gy:
from the maker how,I don't understand

from the phone brand

jom28gy:
What is phone upgrade, and what does it tend to achieved

sometimes, update makes phone slow. This is as a result of you patronising the newer devices.

Dharyhor:
Unlock ur bootloader

You can even get Android 11 whenever it's out with that

what's a bootloader and how does one unlock it?

jom28gy:
In those days, there is how to know original phone,a certain number will be type, and it will bring out your phone imei number, now how can one know original phone?

after checking the imei, visit this address imei.info and input the imei number there to be sure the specs match the original specs of what the phone should be.

My fellow nairalanders
Good afternoon

I have been a member for close to a year now.... Even though I have been a guest for about 2 years before joining.

I have sought advice here twice and your advice has really helped a lot. Please help me once more my people

I just got admitted into a school in the south East while my parents live in the North.

My parents (my mum especially) pleaded with me to stay with her eldest sister and her children for a while, at least for my first year in school

I didn't want it at first ... But I had to agree just cuz of the way my mom was now on my neck.
She worried I knew nothing about the east.... She wanted me to get a bit used to the East

With the help of my dad..... She succeeded in convincing me to stay in her sister's house.

My first weeks in the house was quiet peaceful and fun not untill my cousin brother started looking for his biscuits

Funny right

It seemed funny that a 23 years old dude would turn out to be a devil just cuz of an ordinary 100 naira biscuits.
Mind you ... He is the only son
He asked everyone and everyone denied taking it. He asked me and I too denied it.... Cuz I didn't take it.

He beat hell out of me... Insisting I was the thief.
We became almost enemies and didn't talk to each other for about 2 months.
Aways from that ... We reconciled tho

But he still remained a trouble to my life
Always beating me as if am an animal.... He beats his sister too.

But it seems mine is worst
He has stopped me from sitting on a particular chair in the parlour.
He bullies me ... Telling me there is nothing I, my parents, or anyone can do to him.

I received the beating of my life today because the Tv remote got spoilted and he is insisting it's me. He accuses me of virtually everything that goes wrong in the house.

I'm getting sick, depressed and it's affecting me alot.

I don't want to disturb my mum about it ... It might cause problem between she and her sister
I don't want to be the cause of anyone's quarrel with another person.

I wish to go home. And I can't go back home now ... Cuz of the Corona virus and the inter state lockdown.

Please what do I do ?
Help me out
He gets worst by the day.

give me his number!
