Am currently on Etisalat 1 gig for 1k plan, it's for selected subscribers though. But the network speed ain't fun sometimes & can be annoying.

Thinking of glo 12gig for 5k plan since glo is the most stable of all but sadly it's validity is just 30 days.

Nigerian networks sha

This is the first time I'm seeing somebody say that Glo is reliable in his area. Are you for real?

Who said there's no Diamond app

I said it. I also said I USED a Lumia phone, not that I'm using. It wasn't there when I used it and by then every little Android could have the app.

BB gone where?!
You know nothing bout technology.

Look at this one, what is he saying? you know everything about technology yet you didn't know that BlackBerry with their shitty BB10 OS is as good as dead, tho it's still better than Windows. Are they succeeding and their next phone is going to run on Android? Everybody is claiming techy guy, you want to join too. See their heads like coconut.

bro is google that is in-charge of d Android One OS, it's just like d Nexus devices... So tell me why Nexus devices won't get update bfor others... There are other Android One devices around d world.. Updating the OS is from google not Infinix bro

Did I ever say that Infinix is in charge of the update?Google will release it and you'll get it when Infinix rolls it out, meaning it won't be as fast as Nexus devices. Keep saying what you wish, I'm telling what I heard from the horses mouth. It's very simple, u can go to YouTube and watch the video or better still we'll see when Nexus devices starts getting Android M update.

Bro, both uses d same chipset but I will advice u to buy hot 2. because its an Android one device... Its has 2gb of ram variant thats also an edge in gaming and it will get update frm google for d next 3yrs. Android 6.0 is coming out in coming weeks and u are sure of getting even bfor the galaxy S6 and other high-end fones. Tecno don't always update their devices imagine their flagship Phantom Z hasn't receive a lollipop yet.. Camera and UI wise C8 is better. Battery wise C8 is better too. But battery is not the issue with a good powerbank. Am a gamer too and in my own opinion i would say u should buy hot 2 and it lesser in price.. Thanks hope i help..

All these fuss about getting Android updates till next 3 yrs even before other high end phones might not be completely true. Cos if you read that statement from Google on the launch of this Android one thing, there was a disclaimer that the update would come based on Infinix's schedule. I think we should all understand this.

15million apps that you can't use? And what smoothness are you guys always talking about? I used a Lumia 535 and it was like hell. Oh, I didn't mention that with my stupíd Lumia I couldn't open some pdf files (even with Microsoft office] cos it will always direct me to complete the download with an app bla bla bla, it will direct u to the store, only to get there and not see anything. That my Lumia is not smoother than my current phone in any way. Unless all u know about Android is Itel and the likes.
Singing praises for Windows phone 10 is not the issue, when it eventually comes it will still be the same. They sang the same song during their transition from Windows 7 to 8 to 8.1, and 10 will still be the same boring old story.

I thought u can't think
Now I know u can't even read too

I said lumia would do all you do on your phone, not all android can do, and I even wrote it there, ur eye no catch am.

2. I said I am ditching my android for lumia cos a lumia can do all I do with my phone and its about choice, which is my choice. You eye close for there. Then. You said its a height of stupidity? I laugh, cos you are stu.pid. Its obvious, you even know it, so you're vexed and telling me things like 'height of stupidity' for making a peferable choice. Ok let me ask a question, people that also chose to buy shorts over trousers or people that chose to leave in mainland than the island can be callled height of stupidity?

3. Now if you want to know where wp exeeds at where android fails, go thru my topics and look For "5 reasons windows phone is better than android" read and learn!

4. Nah. I like proving to people how stu.pid they are, and I can't do that without saying they are stu.pid

What I think now is that you want to buy a Lumia phone and you are trying too hard to convince yourself that you're doing the right thing. Telling me u are a tech guy doesn't really mean anything at least to me. Everybody can say that. Have you made any inputs to show you actually know what you're saying? Of cos no. All you're doing is just sitting wherever u are and be feeling superior(to your family members anyways). All I can say is buy your Lumia and I'll be so glad to see you regret later.

The fact is, you have already closed your mind to lumia and windows phone. But whether you like it or not, lumia is growning, and more people are buying it. I don't know where you see your own but around here, the most people that use lumia are young teenage girls. And that is because where android fails, lumia exeeds. No doubt android is a bigger and better operating system than windows now, but also windows phone is now a very reasonable option, so those people that you see with lumia made an option and chose lumia over andriod, if you have a problem with that, I don't want to tell you to hang yourself, that would be mean.

Then You said you think windows phone is for people that is not to intrested in technology, but from all you said, you know nothing about technology, cos if you do, first you won't be a critic, you would should had know what I said in my first paragragh and above all you should had known the answer to your question! But since you don't I would give you an idea, now pick up your android phone, think about all you do with your phone(not all you think your phone can do). If you are really honest to your self, all you do with your phone is all those guys you see with lumia do with thiers. I can bet with my life there is nothing more you do with yours that can't be done on a lumia, but you won't be honest, I'm 150% sure of that.

Listen to me, I'm a tech person, I love tech, I'm a programer reading computer science in school, and I want to get a lumia phone and ditch my android, yes, its about choice, lumia would do for me all I do on my android now, I don't have one now cos I can't afford one. And to me, you are less than a baby in the tech world to post such nonsense. Thanks. Have a blessed day

That's the height of your stupidity to ditch ur Android for a Lumia. What are the places that Android failed and Lumia succeeded? And again, if u bet your life on the fact that your Lumia can do all my android can, then you're already on your way to dying. And finally, it's possible you could've made all your points without insulting me by saying I wrote nonsense.

Craven:
Your assumption that people purchase Lumia devices just to make and receive calls is very wrong and based on the fact that you know nothing about the devices.

Lumia devices are known for their durability, great camera, and remarkable battery life. The app store doesn't have as many apps as Android or iOS stores, but the basic apps are available. The UI is sleek and sophisticated, although not completely customizable.

Lumia devices have their drawbacks, but they are very good devices nonetheless and offer value for your money. Besides, Microsoft promises a new Windows 10 Mobile update that promises a better experience.

So before you judge a device based on wrong assumptions, try to research about it first.

What are the basic apps there? Sotey I couldn't get ordinary diamond bank app from the shitty store. Try to download a song, once you leave the interface of the browser your downloads stop instanta. Network fluctuates like say 2moro no dey cos u can't have it fixed permanently on 3G (u'll always choose 3g & 2g). These are basic things any normal phone can do, but Lumia can't. So pls tell me what is sophisticated in a Lumia device as u claimed that they are very sophisticated.

Phones › What Exactly Do People Do With Their Lumia Phones?? by donhils(op): 12:51pm On Sep 02, 2015

Again, this should be simple. Every time I look around I see people(most time old people sha) holding Lumia phones and I use to wonder what exactly are they thinking. For me I think Lumia phones are just for people that are not too interested in technology. They just want to make and receive calls but also don't want to use Nokia torch cos maybe it makes them appear small so they chose to go the Lumia way.
Do you own a Lumia phone or know anybody that does? How true is my assumption?

So many educated illiterates in nigeria...,the op said,''top QUALITY phones at AFFORDABLE price'',meaning u get quality specs at a low price.....d op listed phones btw 15k to 55k,are diz prices not affordable?..,so many nlanders were xpectin TECNO-ridden list.unfortunately,u can never get a tecno föne with specs dat re worth its price.
Almost all fones mentioned by op come with gorilla glass,ips or amoled screen,qualcomm chips and 'real' memory(both ram and storage).unlike doz chinko fones with fake specs

Look at you that understands the meaning of affordable and you call 80k affordable? A phone of 80k can never be called affordable, no matter the angle you want to look at it from. And to think that the op didn't even mention affordable shows this guy here doesn't know what he's saying.

That it lasted for you doesn't mean it's complete. I know ppl that still use all those weekly free 15mb and it's ok for them. If you use an android phone, you should see the data counter from your settings to actually find out what you used. Not just that it lasted for you.

Ok this is simple, I'm looking for a good PAID data plan to subscribe to on any Nigerian Network. Note that PAID was stressed, so I don't want anybody telling me simple server, bis on android bla bla bla.... Although you pay for those, I want the one with normal procedures.
