You've started again. Who told you that your mc Xiaomi don't use USB 2.0 for their recent phones? cheesy

How can I enable camera2api on redmi 9c and 9a?

Something is wrong with Xiaomi I swear. Why can't they just unlock bootloader in all their recent phones?
Camera2api is enabled on those phones. Except you will personally port GCam to those phones stop wasting your time. There is no development in that line for them. Usually MTK chipsets have little development worse those entry level chipsets

One thing I love about Laycon's music is the way he values the artistes friends he had before the fame. Even though some of them are not so known yet. He's using his platform to bring them out as much as possible. I admire that in him.

Look at Drunk in love ft. Soundz (a not so known artiste)

Fall for me ft. YKB (another not so known artiste)

And both songs still bang.
YKB formerly known as Yusuf Kanbai actually was on two tracks Narcos and Accolades on Who is Laycon.

I like the way he is lending a hand to his fellow UNILAG Alumni

The Mediatek Dimensity 1000 Plus is a powerful 5G processor and now it is starting to power a lot of smartphones like the Realme X7 Pro and the Oppo Reno 5 Pro 5G.

yea the realme 7 is good for its price. i like the big 5,000 mAh battery and the 48MP camera. the mediatek helio G95 processor is pretty good for this phone.
Why does it look like, you are replying yourself?

Realme might offer competitive prices in India but globally their prices are more expensive than Xiaomi.

should i buy redmi note 9s or redmi note 10. both 4gb/64gb variqnts. i no get money for 6gb ram. redmi note 10 pro is out of the question
RN9s or RN10s, if you want to consider RN 10 over RN9s it would be because;

1. Smaller form factor(If you are a fan of that)
2. Amoled display
3. A Sony main Camera(The camera outputs from reviews will decide if the camera is better than the one on the RN9s)
4. Faster Charging
5. Better speaker system
6. It is Lighter.

RN9s over RN10
1. Better processor built on a more efficient process
2. Slightly larger battery (But this doesn't guarantee that it will be better)
3. Better camera array(Better Selfie Camera sensor and Macro camera)
4. Bigger display if you are fan of large phones.
5. Better build (Corning gorilla glass 5 front and back)

Guys no matter the Temptation don't charge your Redmi with a Power Bank.

A friend charged his Note 9 using PB for two days since then battery no stable as before. From 100-95 can be in 20min and before e de reach 30-40min
Or from 100-90 even after leaving it to stay 100% for like 15min once he remove use for 5min e go change go 99%.


Genius43 any solution ?

Find image below.

Thanks
But the network is also not good now and the current heatwave is not helping batteries.

Now the question is which power bank is he using?

Na that Processor dey annoy me most. Helio P35. I be wan slap my guy with vex today after I see the specs.
The dude isn't phone savvy that's why I just dey pity am. Although he seems not to be a demanding user, just the basics.

I was complaining about the processor to him and he wasn't getting me. He might feel I dey form cos I just got a new midranger.
I was even angry bout processors and this guy asked for another option— Gionee M12. I just dey SMH. That one processor is even worse— P22.

Dude no know say na recent Android app expansion and behaviour make me dey feel for am. Person go buy phone only just a month and start to dey see lags.
Let him make his decision.

True...options were very limited to those companies.

S6 Edge blew everyone away that year in terms of design. That's when Samsung was still innovative and leading the way for phone tech. Now I'm just pissed everyone now following iPhone footsteps and design.

The thing I loved about Huawei that period were that design wise after Samsung and maybe Sony they were the next best thing. I always loved their design and sleekness.

All those Sony, Apple, HTC, LG weren't in my plans or dreams at all sef. Cos I didn't have the financial reach to buy any of their phones then.
Phantom series from Tecno was the next best option. And they did a whole lot of good for smartphone penetration in Africa.
Someone was fuming then why I would spend around 100k for the S4 when the Phantom A+ cost around 37k but I wasn't moved because I wasn't drawn to that company right from time and the only time I used them it was a forgettable experience. But I give it to them for giving people a doorway in Nigeria to get a feel of the Android ecosystem

How time flies

@ genius43

My colleague at work is looking for a new smartphone to buy. Upgrading from Samsung Galaxy S4.

He was looking at the A12 and the pricing..I was even pitching a better deal for him — The Redmi 9T. But guy no dey reason my talk. He's just fixated on his galaxy and I know it's mainly cos of name. There was a day he was boasting that 'people hail him as a big boy cos of his Samsung even tho d phone na kpalasa' cos of brand name.

Me I just dey look am like na only people wey no Sabi phone go see that one dey trip. I no sha tell am make I no hurt him feelings. grin

The other phone he was considering is fairly used A51. I dey tell this guy say na phone wey Infinix Note 7 dey beat for performance an im him wan purchase. E be like say I dey Blaspheme.

I go just bone am... Patiently wait make he buy phone of him choice. I go sha laff better laff when person buy phone he no dey too satisfied with wetin him get.
Samsung A12 is an aberration, for the pricing that they slapped on it, they could have done better in the specs especially the choice of processor

I began growing a following for them around 2015/16, that time when person just start dey hustle for jamb to free person. grin

That time I loved and frequented walking into Phone stores in ikeja and playing with the top phones I can lay my hands on. I wondered why I was never enamoured by Samsung then. I was just drawn to Huawei. The P phone I press that day ehn...use am snap picture since then I became a believer. grin

I even sent the pics to my Nokia X2. grin
I saw the P8 in 2015 but it had nothing on the S6 and S6 Edge that year.

I remember when I bought the Samsung Galaxy S4 in 2013, choices where limited, it was either Sammy, Apple, HTC, Sony and LG then the Tecno Phantom A/A+

Dem really pour better sand for Huawei eyes. grin
I was actually pissed of that annoying protectionism. The main underlying reason to that effect was the hatred and jealousy US had of China overthrowing their Economy in this decade. To limit that growth they had to tackle the big tech companies from China. Just when US was starting to lose its grip and dominance on World cutting edge technology. Huawei/China actually best them in the next technology race — 5G.

And Sam took it personal and decided to spoil things.

I was seeing the pricing for A32 and was fuming. This people take consumers for fools. That's why I hate monopolies and always end up supporting UNDERDOGS.

Same feels here bro. That's why I so much love the tech industry too.

No one is a hegemony for too long when there's a dedicated competitor with the right product mix.

Same way BlackBerry and Nokia where feeling back then. Now they've been upended. HTC sef same. Sony(mobile) sef outgunned. I remember when Sony used to boast of the best in class Camera and their under water protection rating.

The rise and fall of brands is very much littered in Tech.

Same way Samsung and iPhone were laughing when Huawei told(predicted) that it's going to be world number 1 by 2023 and become #2 by 2019. Not until Huawei achieved that feat and they started the panic button and called uncle Sam to limit that growth.
US did Huawei dirty and this their continuos assault on Chinese tech is anti-competition.

Now Samsung can have the liver to slam $256 dollar on the A32 4G with Helio G80.

Legendary?? LMFAO.... against which model of Xiaomi phones?

Oga I call this BS. So you're telling me a phone of 4 yrs ago will trash a midranger in 2020? In this day and age of smartphone photography? Baba you dey joke abeg. Abi you think say na Tecno or Shïtfinix you dey compare.

I bet you're amongst the school of thought who thinks iPhones are the best smartphone for photography when Huawei have been owning everybody for the past 3 years. Heck, even Google pixel phones will beat iPhone same year counterpart anyday anytime.

Have you heard of the Mi 10 Ultra or Mi 10T Pro?
The ultra na Beast.

iPhone only slightly does better in Videos.
One thing I love about the tech industry is the fact that the throne is rotational.

Four years ago if someone will tell Intel that they will lose their hold of the PC market to AMD they would have rolled on the floor laughing.

tbh my friends xiaomi mi a3 with gcam destroyed iphone 11 camera.. live test with both phones for school.. gcam a beast especially when you have a Sony sensor
GCam asides, if you haven't used a flagship phone from Xiaomi you won't appreciate their giant leaps in the photography department.

As at the Mi 9, i won't really put them in this discussion. But from the Mi Note 10 Pro, Mi 10 Pro and Ultra they switched things up.
