Shocking! The new Tecno Phantom 8 is far less powerful than last year’s Phantom 6 Plus By Dennis Mathu Several weeks ago, after the launch of the Infinix Note 5, we highlighted the trend of how Infinix has been recycling processors in all its midrange and high end devices. We recommended the company to borrow a leaf from their sister and rival, Tecno, they seemed to have their CPU game on point, or do they? The Phantom 8 is now available at Jumia starting today, going through its specifications, we realized something odd, the Mediatek Helio P25 powering this phone was actually weaker than the Mediatek Helio X20 inside last year’s Tecno Phantom 6 Plus. That is unacceptable for a flagship device. First of all, the Helio X20 from last year’s model had 10 cores (deca-core), the one in the latest Tecno Phantom 8, the Helio P25, has only 8-cores (octa-core). CPU enthusiasts will be quick to counter that more cores do not necessarily translate to more speed, and they would be right in some scenarios such as the Apple A-series CPUs running on iPhones, but when it comes to Mediatek, more cores equals more power. This is because all deca-core Mediatek processors contain two high end A72 cores that are optimized for high performance, the remaining 8 favor energy efficiency. Put differently, the Helio X20 deca-core inside the Phantom 6 Plus has 2 high performance core+8 energy efficient cores while the Helio P25 in the Phantom 8 has only 8-energy efficient cores. This means that the X20 is so much more powerful than the P25. It is not surprising seeing the Helio X-series is Mediatek’s high performance line of processors while the P -series is designed for longer battery life. The benchmarks results of both of these processors further emphasize the performance gap between them. The Phantom 8 has a CPU that averages a score of 65,000 on Antutu benchmark. On the other hand, the Helio X20 on last year’s Phantom 6 Plus hits a score of over a whopping 100,000 on the same benchmark (around 80,000 score in less optimized devices). In fact, Antutu had the Helio X20 appear on the Top 10 fastest processors in the world- last year- as you can see in the ranking above. Last year’s Tecno Phantom 6 Plus Why would Tecno downgrade their performance? Perharps they justify this move with the fact that the Phantom 8 is faster than last year’s cheaper flagship version the Phantom 6 (without the Plus), maybe they wanted to prioritize more on battery life longevity this year, (but again the Phantom 6 Plus had a bigger battery than the new Phantom 8 so the difference will be negligible). Perharps the answer is in manufacturing costs or the support for dual camera technology. Whatever the reason, the fact still remains, if you want more raw power for gaming and productivity, bigger screen (6 inch vs 5.7 inches) and also save some money while at it, forget the new Phantom 8 and go for last year’s Phantom 6 Plus. However, If zooming into objects while taking photos and having a new shinier design is what you are after, go for the new Phantom 8. The choice is yours. https://techmoran.com/shocking-new-tecno-phantom-8-far-less-powerful-last-years-phantom-6-plus/ |
By Olanrewaju Sodiq - What started off as a rumour have eventually transcended into reality. WhatsApp have officially released the “un-send” feature for global use across all mobile platforms (Android, iOS, and Windows). Albeit the capability to un-send messages or delete texts that haven’t been read and making them unavailable to the recipient have been undergoing testing by Beta users of WhatsApp for quite sometime now, all users of the instant messaging platform can now have access to the feature. 3-in-1 offer: New app update, Un-send message and new emoji To effect the new Un-send feature, WhatsApp introduced a new app update across all respective mobile app store. Likewise, the app update comes embedded with the recently announced native WhatsApp emojis (which many have said still takes a cue from those of Apple’s). How to un-send messages and delete sent messages First off, ensure you update your WhatsApp to the latest version on your device’s app store. Launch the app, send a message to any one on your contact or chat list. When the message has been sent and delivered (indicated by the double-mark line), hold the message you wish to un-send and click on the trash can icon at the top of the screen. Afterwards, click on “Delete for everyone” option from the pop-up menu to delete the send message. That way, both you (the sender) and the recipient will no longer see the message. Click on”Delete for Everyone” to un-send messages/texts However, it is worth noting that you can only delete a sent message between 0 to 7 minutes after sending it. Any second after 7 minutes, the text cannot be retracted. Also, both parties need to have the latest version of the messenger on their devices for the messages to be deleted or un-sent. With this, WhatsApp follows in the footsteps of Google Mail’s (Gmail) granting users the liberty to un-send e-mails. This feature particularly comes in handy when messages sent either by mistake or you have messages containing errors that needs to be corrected and sent again. source: https://techmoran.com/official-whatsapp-rolls-new-app-update-enable-users-delete-sent-messages/ |
No wahala just that there is no smaller plans (monthly subscription) for now. Let me know when it is introduced. |

God bless you. This is history. this is the very first time an organisation or individual will donate or support Nigeria Fire service since its establishment in 1901. Since 1901? Wow |
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Thursday said it has not reversed the import ban on 41 items that it declared ineligible to receive foreign exchange from the apex bank. The CBN’s clarification followed some news reports Thursday, which erroneously reported the lifting of the ban, citing a CBN document. http://thewillnigeria.com/news/import-ban-on-41-items-remains-in-force-cbn/

Nigeria’s Findworka.com overhauls website to become Africa’s Freelancer.com Findworka.com, launched last year in May by Dele Bakare, Okuofo Odehi and Wilfred Ekpo, is Nigeria’s platform connecting developers, copy writers and designers to clients from different parts of the country, the site has gone full blown on becoming a freelancing marketplace for every online gig out there. Ekpo says the the platform aims to allow freelancers to search for better projects or clients as well as allow clients to post projects and find the best available hands to work on them at a competitive price; just like Freelancer.com does. According to Ekpo, the new website ships with exciting new features for freelancers such as better user experience, improved search options, optimised chat experience, easier payment experience, better mobile experience and enhanced functionalities. Freelancers sign up, search for projects, bid for them and if they win and complete are paid online by the platform. Clients on the other hand search for different freelancers offering the service that they need. Browse through their profiles, check their ratings and check their previous work. The platform also helps them to manage their projects easily from anywhere and at anytime via their client dashboard where they can view projects status and chat with freelancers and create milestones or share files without leaving their dashboard. For those clients who have no time and don’t want to search around the site, Findworka can outsource the services for them on their behalf using Findworka Premium. “Paying on Findworka is simple and secure once you’re satisfied with the project status,” says Ekpo. “You can pay at the end or after completing agreed milestones. You pay Findworka and Findworka pays the service provider only after you mark the project as completed.” Like Freelancer.com, the client cannot pay the freelancer until the task is complete and payments approved. The payments remain safe in the freelancer wallet and can only be withdrawn once the client approves them. http://techmoran.com/nigerias-findworka-com-overhauls-website-become-africas-freelancer-com/ |
