Romance / Re: Turning Off Read Recipts by Flytime: 4:05am On Oct 01, 2021
Draslo:
I'm posting this here, in this section because of the background of the matter.

Me, I just want to ask, does it make you a bad person to decide to turn off read receipts on all IM apps?
there is nothing wrong with it,I do it and only turn it on when I want someone to know I’ve read his or her message or viewed his or her status

I hate the feeling of mistakenly opening a message and having to reply even if I don’t want to but I have too since it has shown I’ve read the text

Phones / Re: Here Is How I Got Scammed Of 320k Yesterday At Computer Village by Flytime: 3:08am On Sep 30, 2021
chatinent:
Mr Speaker, please permit me to laugh hard first at these two quotes:




I couldn't stop laughing at this story. You don make my day finally. You are lucky dem no package fufu give you.


But it is still worthy to ask why your brother didn't follow you there. You know, it could have saved you the stress.

And I guess, the charisma of the man shut you out. You were carried away too by what your brain called “humility” by his apologies even when you knew the police couldn't help you.

I tell you for free: that alert of so and so was to his second shop account. Lol.


For a truth, most seemingly new phones in Computer Village are actually refurbished or secondhand value.

It depends on the level of refurbishment and secondhand tho. Grade One secondhand value iPhones are actually the ones used by the Whites for not so long...and repackaged in their cartons for resell. It does still look like new.

I think there's a number to recognise them kindof. I know about it and would update this post when I remember.

Many who buy “new iPhones” are actually buying those sorts at the same amount for a new one. That is how the sellers make their gains.

Of course, I do not mean that there aren't those who sell new ones. If you must get a new one, I strongly suggest you visit trusted outlets (celebs following their page doesn't mean they are trustworthy; celebs can do anything for paid ads).

The truth is that it oughts to depreciate in Nigeria...but you and I know that a lot of things of no value abroad comes in here and appreciate. Lol. A failed system here, yeah?


Let say they bought for ₦200k a phone of ₦350k, maybe via Ali Express (because they buy it in large quantities...maybe via partnership with other sellers), they will have to sell for ₦345k to make their gains too.

Why?

A lot of Nigerians cannot recognise new phones. A lot are also using refurbished phones or secondhand phones bought for the price of new phones.

You see these places — St Michaels for Aba, Computer Village for Ikeja, One market near Wurukum for Benue, Alaba for Lagos, one market like that for Biu, Borno ehh, you gat wise up or dem go bobo you. Lol.

When I came to Abia newly as per Lag boy, I enter St Michaels... lol, I carry Phone Casing go house. How dem swap am was too fast I didn't realise. Na phone wey I press check some things o. I return there with army, no bi the people dey there. It happens bro. You gats just know your onions well.

I am sorry for your predicament sha but honestly, you cracked me up real hard.
tell us your story make we laugh

Bro Don't say what you don't know
this is My Gallery App
nice,I didn't know it was now available there
But that's probably because you're using the Google photos app,every other gallery app doesn't support it,just like that of samsung but hey it's a google feature so it's not bad if its for their system photos app only somewhere it won't be available for other photo apps on the app store
I do love the Google lens translate feature though and but you can get a that if you download their all on the app store

Lol what we've been Enjoying with Google Lens for many years
the difference is that you can’t do this on your gallery you’ll have to open google lens so in my opinion this is more convenient

The best feature is the fake email account apple will generate for you to hide your real email from 3rd party companies that sell your details to advertisers.

It means you can now register for Netflix or any streaming app on free trial every month without paying for a whole year(if you wish). Apple will continue to issue you a new fake email account to maintain your privacy.
I’m finding it hard to believe this


My number one problem with the update is the new notification system,the notification summary is nice but the new look is not so nice, it doesn’t look as good as it used to be at least in my opinion

Umidigi
me too,I remember the year I got one,was so hyped with the reviews and the design only for me to be disappointed

I couldn't even say I was because I knew I probably would have been attacked because every fan base on nairaland attacks people who have problem with their device
Terrible camera(I think it's a general problem)
Poor battery life(at least the model I got)
Gets hot easily (the model I got has a glass back)
Heavy(all their phones are unecessarily heavy)

All I could boast of was the design to the extent that I didn't feel like selling it at a stage and felt ltke I should just keep it somewhere or use it as a side phone because I liked the way it looked

I don't know how they are doing now,it's been years since I sold it off

Foreign Affairs / Re: Russia Unleashes New Top-secret ‘satellite Killer’ Missile ( Pix, Video) by Flytime: 6:49pm On Sep 21, 2021
olugabbie:


It will be difficult for Russia to become world power. It has a very weak economy. To become a world power, you need a very strong military and economy. Although Russian military technology can rival the US. But it lacks the fund to produce most of its state of the art military equipments in large numbers. Military equipment like T- 14 Armata, Yasen M class Submarine, K-52 Alligator Attack Helicopter e.t.c, these are top notch weapons. Russia is a military power house, but its economy is not as big as the US. The two countries that can take the crown from the US are China & may be India. China has a very strong economy that will surpass US economy in future. Although China is not yet a military power house. But it has a very strong military and it will catch up with US & Russia in future. India too has a lots of potentials. It is among the 6 countries that have Nuclear-powered ballistic missiles submarine. It also has a very strong economy. All they need to do is to be hardworking like the Chinese and boom they will find thier way to the top.
I doubt India ever becoming world power,they have to much problems
The conditions of living,India isn’t developed and I don’t think an undeveloped country can ever be world power

Phones / Re: Price Of Iphone 13 In Nigeria Exposed Guys by Flytime: 12:10pm On Sep 19, 2021
emae009:


did it ever occur to you at some point that it may be a design choice for them... Right now if I show you a screen background with a notch, what comes to your mind first if not the iPhone??
Most of y'all really need to learn a thing or two in design.
There's no way you will see an iMac and mistake it for another computer. No way. Iconic for some reason
let’s say yes it’s a design choice to keep the notch until maybe a full display design is with no notch that supports the Face ID is achievable
Let’s talk about new features

List 5 features that’s the worth the 13 to be called the next big thing for apple
Infact the so called features aren’t worth a major upgrade,it should be a phone maybe an 11 or lower user should get instead of the 12 because it’s like a12 plus ,not a 12 user getting

In my opinion they should have called the 13 a 12s just like the did to their previous phones if they know they don’t have any major update for example the 6s 4s 5s and xs

You paved way for it,it's not a hard thing to do if you block her and cut off all communication.
same solution to the story he said inspired him

Is it that they don’t know the block button exists

I remember a guy that I didn’t want to be receiving his calls for some reasons so anytime he calls me with a new number and I pick we talk and after that I blocked the number,it kept on going for a while ..he probably got the memo and I unblocked him

Phones / Re: Zero X Series: Infinix Unveils Innovative Moon Photography Smartphone by Flytime: 3:42pm On Sep 17, 2021
I don't like the camera design,looks to complicated
I do like the back design and the fact that it lights up as it's charging giving it a nice unique according to what I saw on youtube
In summary I don't think it's worth it for the price
That camera spec on a helio chipset
Moon photography on a helio chipset

They keep on pushing the chipsets to their limits and give them specs that are unreasonable for the processor
I mean a midrange processor for a so called flagship phone..I don't know what it would take them to get better and newer chips each year

A so called flagship that can't boast of an amoled display talk less of oled

The painful part is that out of ignorance people would but them but I can't blame them when all they see on tv and on the streets is tecno and infinix

For that price of over 200k you would get a fairly used iphone 11 or a new iphone x probably even a new xs which are wayy better than that phone

All this so called new is always come and go every year,even the harmony is is nowhere to be found today,it couldn't handle the competition
In my opinion only big tech companies like samsung that has alternate service to googles own can compete in the market if they switch os
It's probably one of the reasons they have alternate apps to almost all google apps trying to perfect it

Phones / Re: The Iphone 13 Is Boring by Flytime: 3:33pm On Sep 15, 2021
TheN1:
I still don't understand how apple does it. They just sell the same exact phone as last year, move the camera around and the whole world starts scrambling for it.

With all the disadvantages like lack of in screen fingerprint scanner, big notch, small battery etc. It's almost as if their fans are 'hypnotised'.
I mean, I can understand if people just like apple phones and decide to wait till there is a drastic change in design, but switching from 11 to 12 and now 13 is just crazy. Almost same design and spec for a ridiculous price.

I really admire the apple marketing team, those guys are geniuses. You don't need to do illegal stuff to scam people.
the 13 was more like a 12s just like the 6s and xs was identical on appearance to the 6 and x

The event announcing the device was boring and nothing impressive was showed

They should have named it 12s,that would have been more justified given the s reputation

The only difference in the appearance is the 13 and 13 mini with a different camera placement not that it makes upgrading from a 12 justify able but the 13 pro and pro max looks the same

I mean a phone of that price that can't even boast of an oled display
It packs all those camera but can the processor do the needful on the camera hardware?
Boasting of a flagship camera on a midranged processor
To me all the camera specs are useless because the phone processor can't fully utilize them,that's if the hardware is anything right home about
