I can’t see where Mbappe’s father made this statement. Most likely made up quotes. Personally, I don’t believe it. At 18/19, Mbappe was already a star and was very well under France’s grip. I don’t think they ever considered playing for Cameroon.

It's actually a fake story.

LagosInter:
Please what's the difference between second space and the secure folder in terms of functions?


You really seem to have read my mind and concerns.


Are there other good differences between the two brands you can remember?

Second space is kind of like a seperate user space on windows. Practically a separate phone. You can install whatever you want on it. Very easy to switch to too.

Secure folder on samsung is like an app folder that you can also install apps, videos, and whatever you like too.
In my opinion, second space on xiaomi is superior.

Mind you, Samsung has way better second hand value if you care about selling your device later on, plus it has 4 years of OS updates. I think Xiaomi flagship have 3 years now.

Lucifyre:
Are u sure u know what u are saying. How can u say secure folder is limited to messaging and social media apps. Some of u would just spout dross confidently.

If you knew how to read you wouldn't type rubbish.
I said dual apps is limited to messaging and social media apps on samsung.

LagosInter:
Good input.

Xiaomi exclusive features like?
One thing I like about Xiaomi is app dualisation

Yeah dual apps is limited to only messaging and social media apps on samsung.
Also, Samsung has no default app lock and third party options simply do not work as well.
I love second space on xiaomi too. Secure folder is good but doesn't do the same thing.

chariisGRACE:
Why would you be comparing a Xiami Mi 8 to a S21 Ultra, bro?

2018 SD 845 vs 2021 SD 888. Fear God, abeg.

I didn't compare it.
I meant when I bought it in 2019.

Rdfactor:
LoL. iMessage? That's not enough to make me dump Samsung and port to iOS. . There's a particular flexibility I enjoy using my S22 Ultra for my day to day routine

I read it's big in America.
Like they don't really use whstapp that much.

MALIGNANTGuest:
I just bought one the highest Motorolas.
Have never been a FAN of it but thought it wise since it seems they have repented.
Motorola Moto X30 pro
The Camera is Top Notch!
The Phone is a Beast!
I have never liked iPhone either.

So, I'm recommending this one for your ultimate satisfaction.

Seems you live in the USA.
Can you really cope with no imessage?

LagosInter:
Help me decide please.

Depends on what you want.
My flagship xiaomi mi 8 slowed down to crap in less than two years. I guess it needs a reset.
My S21 ultra still flies like day 1 even with filled storage and over 1 year of use.
Xiaomi has some exclusive features you can't find on samsung and vice versa.

Abbeytoy:
I like iPhone so much, but I don't think I can do without android.

I have both but I use android almost all the time, even my android theme is that of iPhone 12.

Both devices are good and I don't think there should be debate on which is better.

Most guys have a supporting android in the background to be frank.
Ii find it hard managing two phones else I would do the same.

KennethEnyi:
Guy trust me nobody in their right senses will ever pick Toyota over Benz it’s just not possible
Except if the person doesn’t have the money
Simple!!!

You know people actually buy prados/lexuses over Mercedes right?
Anyway a flagship android is also a benz in this conversion

SamuelLoch:
Honestly, I haven't noticed anything different about MTN. Airtel is trying sha

Airtel doesn't have 5g yet

drizzypat:
Wow tussle of wealth here..

Op see what u caused

Lmao. I can't laugh �

sunshineV:
If I have the money, I'll go for the pixel 7 pro.

Go for the s23 ultra sis.

NACE13:
Going down memory lane, I just realised most of the f the girls I dated had only beauty/body(as trophy) and sex that is all I can remember them for. My current woman(will soon be an ex) is a very good fashion designer/tailor. When she's on her osewing machine, she's a beauty to watch, literally.

Wicked comrade

drizzypat:
I don't see the need for the comparison

It's 2022 no one does this anymore,simply use what you are cool with and go with that .In my case I use both and I can say they all have thier perks, apple offer more streamline fluid experience with respect to its amazing ecosystem[ if you get a hold of its macbook,watch and others], it's way better in video too..on the other hand android are for the geeks cus it gives you access to a many gimmicks and mods that can help tweak your phone to what you want..

So I'll just simply say

Whatever rocks your boat!!!

Rest bro.
Iphones can't even multi-task while on whstapp video calls.

Jwonder:
Lol same line every android fan boy use, they always hide behind Samsung.

Why would I lie to anonymous people

gonkin:
I still like my china oukitel. Waterproof with night vision camera that can see in pitch black

I like people like you.
Una no send any brand Papa and una dey save money well.

Gabby84:
No no I tell you this is Someone who just switched from iOS to android because of work and I can tell you the iOS xperience is way smoother though my iPhone was jailbreaked the apps seems better designed. Not interested in a war pick Ur religion a jailbreaked iPhone kills any android in my book of d same generation iOS 16 jailbreak just launched

You're used to iOS that's why.
The average user doesn't have access to jailbreak.

Jwonder:
Tears of an Android fanboy who can’t afford to get an iPhone so they resort to hating.

I use an S21 ultra bro.
I suppose fit afford decent iPhone if I want.

Jwonder:
Why the lamentations?
Hardly do you see iPhone users open threads to complain about Android, it’s always insure Android phone users that always do this.

Use your virus prone OS and leave iOS users alone.

iPhone users always brag "Even if Android dey fly, na iPhone we go use". So they definitely thrash talk android too

And no hard feelings btw. E no reach vex

I have been playing around with my brother's IPhone 14 pro and these are my observations.
The idea of Apple's IPhone being better than android is simply a marketing phenomenon
Hear me.
Obviously all phones do similar stuff nowadays anyway. A tech inclined person could find a way to bypass the bottlenecks on ios to achieve most things albeit with several jump arounds and compromises, so I could definitely live with iPhone if I have to.

Functionality wise, the iPhone is a joke and a testament to the Power of the American culture being able to impose any narrative on the world.
Imagine not being able to monitor your downloads in your notifications drop down or not being able to see actual progress of your downloads on the app store?

The various browsers are all glorified safari themes due to being forced to use only webkit engine.
Compare this to Android where Chrome, Firefox, etc all look like their desktop equivalents. You can even run Chrome extensions on Android if you use the right chromium browsers.
Summarily browsing the web is a better experience on Android.

I appreciate the sandboxed approach in terms of security but windows phone OS was also sandboxed but could at least connect to computers to copy files or even quickly share documents by Bluetooth so what are we talking.

The so called navigation gestures not being universal on iOS is a bit annoying too compared to Android where a back swipe works on any app.

The only thing Apple has going for it in my opinion is the video quality and ecosystem, which is brilliant anyway. Samsung has something similar going though with "Link to Windows" which can even open any app on your laptop. You can even make calls from your laptop or copy and paste text and images between both devices.

AirDrop which apple brags about is nearly matched by nearbyshare, even though Google is abysmal with marketing and no one knows about it

My s21 ultra is still blazing fast after over a year so I don't know about this so called android lag.

Another thing is the perceived societal value the Apple brand carries, and subsequently the resale value which is only a bit decent with Samsung and Google pixel on the Android side.

I was really tempted to try switch to the iPhone 14 pro max but I now see it would probably be a downgrade from my S21 ultra.

"Less is more" ideology of apple is clever psychological marketing aimed at selling incompetence.
If Apple was as fully featured as Android believe me, they'd laugh at Android.

Hoping the S23 ultra brings better video though.

BlackyOne:
I also want a good phone too, and I'm stuck between Pixel 7 pro, Xiaomi 12s ultra, iphone 13 pro...

Pixel 7 pro - New
Xiaomi 12s ultra - New
Iphone 13 pro - UK used FU


I don't know what to do!
I think iphone has good resale value and the parts are cheap

Depends on what you do with smartphones.
They both do similar stuff anyway but iPhone has better video quality than roughly any phone out there, and of course the resale value is great plus the "social prestige" in Africa and America.
Android does nearly every other thing better.

BlaqFaze:
Most of them have this herd mentality, they don't think, they easily get oppressed when they see iPhone. Life is not suppose to be so... iPhone is made for humans to enjoy...chop life and stop stressing yourself.

There should be a reason you prefer Samsung not some flimsy battery excuse because iPhone has a better battery than Samsung...some people are actually using iPhone 6 and they claim iPhone battery is trash....have you used galaxy s6??

In terms of performance...bro... don't just go there iPhone is a performance demon.

The A10 on the iPhone 7 is more powerful than SD 845 on galaxy s9 when gaming, i experienced this myself....galaxy s9 is about 3 years older than iPhone 7

Cap.
IPhone 7 is just a year older.

Prince3:

You'll have to wwu it again if you reset it.

Ayomipoe:
Speculation for me o, but I spent a weekend thinking about it. Seems highly improbable, but this is Nigeria, and it scares me that a new Policy will force me to change my USD at Govt approved rates only. Then I see the Lebanon situation and think wtf.

What happened in Lebanon bro?

grandstar:
I got a surprise for you guys.

I was is the last set of Form 1 to Form 5 students. That was 1984-1889. When I was in Form 2,, the students that got admitted in 1985 were the first JSS 1 students.

My classmates who repeated joined the JSS set. That was brutal. They ended up spending 7 years in secondary school rather than the 5 years we spent. When I was in Form 5 ready to pack and leave, they were in SSS 1.

In 1984, the N50 groundnut today was 10 kobo. Soft drinks sold for 40k. A sweetened peanut like the "Burger peanut" sold for 50 kobo. Meatpie was 50k.

Life then was considered hard but in retrospect, much easier than today

In 1986, the Babangida government commenced the Structural Adjustment Programme. This led to the devaluation of the Naira. The effect was devastating.

Salary earners saw their earning drop in real terms. They suffered the most. The devaluation commenced the mass exodus of Nigerians overseas to search of foreign currency which was now king. Everyone wanted to Japa.

Many nigerians who had their children in British secondary school brought their children back home. My secondary school suddenly had students with a British accents. I can mimic a British accent down to this day.

Most were from British public schools. That's what the British call their elite secondary schools. One of the returnees had a very strong posh accent and snooty manners. He would fit neatly in the British Royal family. He is back in the UK and was a top 50 fencer tbere. Fencing is for the high class class of society. Not for paupers like me.

When you write a book on these old tales, I would queue.

Tokskob2008:
They are all thieves but I think airtel is worse, 1.2gb couldn't even download a 50mb file completely before they sent the "200mb data balance". It's like they use a triple mouthed straw to suck it each time the data is on.

Are you sure you didn't share data to someone in the past?
That is adding a number to your list of data sharers.

victorazy:
Meaning that football na arrangy too.

Can I ask you questions.

1. How many times have you seen a fight stopped to be restarted because there was error interpreting the script just like movies?

2. Why are people so much interested to watch them knowing very well that the winners are predetermined?

3. Why are the fighter show so much emotions when they win or lose?

4. Haven't you witness injuries during fights before?

5. Do you work with them, interviewed any of the or visited America?
Answer please.

The script is actually online.

Balistic4:
I don't understand those guys above. If 2005 toyota corolla cost over 3.4m, I don't see why 2008 civic shouldn't cost even more. I will take the above ride over a 2008 toyota corolla that costs even more

Nigerians are ignorant that's why they keep buying corolla for stupid prices. One person above even said he'd pay 1m. Lol

ArcFresky:
she's no longer a Nigerian.... stop claiming whats not

Don't mind them.

Has she even ever being to Nigeria?
