Nokia has finished other manufacturers, if 2.1 can have so much value that it was updated to Android 9,then shame on all of them that can't update their flagships, infinix (non Android one) and tecno most especially. Mark u, nokia 2.1 is go edition not Android one |

Godbeholds: Clubkonnect, please refund me or credit my wallet. I've written to you guys nonstop for weeks but no reply whatsoever. I'm already tired of loosing my customers on that account. Even to generate E-pins, i haven't been able to. What are the right steps to take? Please, kindly refund the 2000 naira or credit my account please.

ozodigboo: Those who are hoping to vote APC so dt their Yoruba son will enter in 2023 are joking. Buhari ? He won't do it. They just need Tinubu and Osinbajo for reelection. The total humiliation of Tinubu by the Northern cabal will happen immediately after the polls on Saturday. O, i can't wait to see this happen, the south west is just full of political novices. They think the alliance with the hausa/fulani north will favour them, okay na carry on, nobody will advice or caution you, we will just watch and see how u people are being used like underwear |

Wow how time flies, this is my farewell to the great sony xperia, it was indeed a wonderful mobile experience in terms of quality and entertainment, when you hold a sony, they call you a big guy because you bought an expensive phone. But as for now i have moved to infinix, not just because of a disappointment with sony Xperia but because the phone is getting too scarce, imagine roaming around Abuja looking for it and the sellers are looking like "strange product" had to try something else |

abdomints: Multiple mobile phone manufacturers are bringing Andoid Go edition phones with 1 GB RAM. Infinix Hot 7 and Xiaomi Redmi Go are the examples. Infinix Hot 7 price is set to Rs. 14,999 (~38,500 Naira) in Pakistan which seems to be so high. Let's see how Xiaomi sets the price of Redmi Go model. See where the problem is, if the price was like 25k,then we will know its a budget phone |

Greenarrow01: Pls I have a problem with my infinix 6x
When ever I make calls the light goes off.. Which of course is normal.. The proximity sensor is working right But the problem is when I drop that call or when its not close to my ear.. The light never comes off.. I end up losing money from not ending calls
As soon as I call.. The light goes off without even taking it close to my ear.. I am unable to end calls except the other party ends it.. And I keep seeing a notification to upgrade.. Is it advisable I suggest you use "power button end call" in settings |

Phones › Re: Five Reasons To Update Your Phone Software Regularly by ddjay: 6:47pm On Feb 12, 2019 |
Abiodunspectre: Software upgrades, which have now become synonymous with smartphones, are essentially little updates for smartphone's operating system that allows the device to perform at its optimal level.
But, many smartphone users today do not trust these software upgrades and they think that updating their devices software might actually corrupt the device or can harm the data that has been saved on the device's memory.
Stability
Smartphones are just like computers that run software, which is your operating system, on its hardware. When any changes to the software are made it affects the performance of the whole system. These changes can be caused by any application or any additional service like Adobe Flash that is being used by most smartphones today.
So in order to counter any ill effect, the developers and manufacturers of the devices work in tandem testing out applications and software which might cause instability to the device and release software patches in the from of software upgrades, helping the operating system stay in the best possible shape and enhancing device's stability as well.
Bug fixes
Many a times, certain versions of operating systems found to be causing troubles for smartphones, leading to a bad user experience. Such problems are even found in newly launched handsets.
A classic example of it would be the iPhone 4S which received an upgrade just after the launch of the device.
Apart from battery, there are hundreds of components inside a smartphone that need to operate optimally to perform well but it anything malfunctions, it can be corrected through software upgrades or at least some basic repair work can be attempted by the company.
Security
One of the biggest concerns that smartphone users have today is the security of the data that is saved by these devices automatically and also by the users while doing multiple things like financial transactions and online purchases.
Today cyber criminals are exploiting smartphones in everyway in order to find out a loophole in the security so that they can steal the confidential data for their gain. This is precisely why handset manufacturers also invest in legitimate hacking of the devices in order to find loop holes that need fixing.
So as and when a loophole is found out, a security patch is released by the company as an individual upgrade or as a part for a bigger update file in order to safeguard users from such attacks.
For example, Android has been in the news for such security issues, but security upgrades for the Android devices have also been released from time to time to protect the users.
Hardware issues
Just like software, a smartphone's hardware is another component that sometimes malfunctions and it can be caused by the some error in the operating system or due to some upgrade that was released for the device recently.
For example, the hardware volume rocker or control key on the iPhone 4 stopped working after the operating system was upgraded. But, Apple promptly issued an upgrade to resolve the issue.
Although such issues are rare but there are possibilities as developers and device makers keep experimenting with various options for the benefit of users so there are always possibilities of such happenings.
Additional features
Software upgrades also bring in additional features to smartphones as well.
