Intel HD Graphics 4600. Adapter RAM - 1gb [confirm from picture posted above]

This Spec is still very relevant. You can play almost any regular game (One Piece, Need for Speed...) but its not a gaming laptop per se. Its a rugged business notebook with confirm specs to withstand harsh hard working conditions.

If you need a gaming laptop you should be looking out for a NVIDIA graphic card but i’m sure you know the laptop’s price would be further away from price i intended to sell this one wink
Just learnt “Battle Field 3” can be played on it; which is wonderful news. In fact there is a very long list of games playable on it. I doubt if our two can finish them in 200yrs even if we join our life together smiley

Yeah I saw the Kano pick up location....but I've just browsed about them on Nairaland with some peeps writing some funny reviews about MFA oh, they saying MicoStar Mall is better....I'm just confused ryt now meen.

Abeg let's relates better on whatsapp. You can send me the digit via this mail medicedoh@gmail.com as I don 4get the email I take open this nairaland account.
MicoStar i haven't heard of them would check it they are cheaper on my next order. I have bought personal stuffs worth over 350k through MallForAfrica this year though. Their app is user friendly, i wanted to try ShopToMyDoor one time. Omo i was confused.

Yes they fit delay small, but if they no deliver las las they usually return my money. I dey para for them well well, they sabi me for their office grin

Alright boss, would send an email.
ComputersRe: Should I Go For This Brand New Laptop? by Harddiskng(m): 7:03pm On Dec 22, 2017
lebete3000:
Lol, that's really crazy, here's what I got from them which is still quite affordable for me.

What do you think?
Hehehe you are on your way to becoming an Importer, Exporter grin

Its almost the same price as Jumia plus you are directly buying from the source.

Check if you can get a better deal in the stores around you (this i doubt though). If you can be wait patiently for a month for delivery go for it. (sometimes the delivery dey fast mehn; 2 weeks e don land)

Left to me, i would go with it. Plus they have a pick-up centre in Kano. This way i am very sure there wont be any deviation in terms of spec. Cuz small details can differ depending on its country of origin (eg UK, US, Dubai).

Was actually redirected to Amazon from the ACER website where I saw the price but conversion to Naira will be 140k, was scared it may be fairly used product cos the price of Jumia states 165k. I know shipping and all is a factor to also consider tho.
Shipping n tins can add a good 40k on the price though. Download the Mallforafrica app and run the simulation to know how much you need to pay to the last kobo and still check stores around your location.

My fear is Jumia allows every Tom, dick and harry to sell without minding the authenticity of what they sell.

If the product is bad, their return policy is a big headache for me. you would fight and drag with Jumia and the seller.

Quick story
Last three weeks ago, i bought toner from them for the printer i use at home; Hp P2035 printer. The despatch rider landed with it, as i open am na so ink start to pour for my body cheesy #RefurbishedCatridgeOfLife.

I had already given the rider the bulk of the money, i went in to get N200 change to complete the money, my mind just said i should test it. Na so i come out changed to the ink-man thanks to the fake product.

I dragged with the rider for 2hours, baba said i should follow the return policy. Snap the product and wait for their reply after God knows when. Trust me i no allow the okada man move. For 2 hours we called the seller, his Oga, his oga’s oga until he gave me my money and left.

They no need tell me again before i use leg waka to better store to buy my toner.

lebete3000:
So I should buy from who then? Maybe I'll check out GAME at Ado Bayer Mall.
Gadgets are more expensive in other parts of Nigeria than Lagos no doubt about that.

Yes, you can check out stores. When you get there tell the sales attendant to get off your back cool scrutinize the Specs of the desired laptop for as long as possible. If there is any defect you can always stroll into the same store, shouting “Where is the manager!!” grin

Second option, this is what I usually do. Found out the lowest price in Naija and the cost of product plus shipping after conversion. If it favors you ship it.

Depending on the foreign site you buying from, wait patiently for promo periods grin (eg 50% off). Get the desired laptop from the official site if you can using “Mall for Africa” or any shipping partner you trust.

Option two has become a sort of habit for me, even upto socks and inner wear, i ship am lol.

You don't need to tell me but tell yourself that, only a mature individual sees error and corrects it immediately, even though your statement on Kano was myopic it still doesn't stop me from learning from you cos no one knows it all.

It's left to you to continue saying "no wonder" to everyone living in Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Sokoto etc who you have a discussion with. Until the day you successfully make a fooool of yourself.
I would never say “No wonder” again.

Please avoid buying from Jumia, the risk is high smiley

Highlighted Kano and replied with no wonder cos you prolly weren't expecting the response I gave you...now trying to control the damage done after an eye-opener.

Insulting Kano is none of my business but trying to do that in relation to me is where I'll reply you...Kano ain't my state so it got nothing on me, Lagos Island born & bred, work brought us here but I won't hesitate to say Lagos remains a piece and a pile of sh!t.

Be gone for good 2faced man and Goodluck with your 80k laptop.
There was no damage done. Its all in your mind lol.

Why you are emphasizing the state is beyond me but I support your assertion

Please find it in your heart to accept my apology. God bless you.

I would have kept quiet and allowed you wallow in your ignorance. You'll think anyone staying in the North is definitely from the North or prolly knows nothing at all.

The same reason i left Lagos cos its full of ignorant yet arrogant individuals who can't see beyond their nose, which is why you can't pay attention to details otherwise you'll have gotten a better deal isn't of the rip off that was sold to you.

And yes you were just ranting, my reply is for the unsuspecting and the objective & competent techheads to share their POV not short-sighted folks like you who are yet to realize the globe is now connected and you can be in a jungle and still be well informed than you who carries a 240k laptop but probably doesn't know what it's used for hence wants to sell it 80k...I laff.

Them go dey South dey form, yet no money for theor hand, we wey we come North we mumu ko?

Kontinuu looking for who to buy your 80k laptop atleast I've given good traffic cheesy
You and i would agree the laptop i posted here wasn't a rip-off.

I don’t sell gadgets mind you, i opened this moniker to sell a Harddisk I bought for a friend because we ended up not needing it. I love the moniker so i stuck with it. By the grace of God i am very much more comfortable than you think

I didn’t post any insult regarding you living in Kano sir. If you took it the wrong way, i am sorry. My bad.

I see no reason for ill intent on social media, its not necessary. Please have a good day.

Lol it doesn’t have “keyboard backlight” sir.

Keyboard backlight is when your keyboard has lights underneath to laminate the characters in the dark.

That description is referring to the screen Sir not the keyboard.

If you see a laptop with atleast an intel core i3 and a “keyboard backlight” for less than 200k. Please let me know, i would be interested too

Are you aware this brand new DELL I pasted up here has Keyboard backlight and even LED light and yet it ls going for 167k and you're saying someone's own is 240k...

I've done my research on Google and I've compared & contrasted the features and price, ACER seems to be a better option than Dell here and they come for $350 convert that to Naira and tell me where you're getting your 240k from for the cheapest above specs.

Guy just calm down.
Oga you are quoting prices from Acer and Dell site. Shipping and Custom duty is not free sir.

The dell doesn’t have keyboard backlight, paste a direct link to the product on Jumia website here.

And its a big YES!, some sellers pass refurbished as brand new on Jumia that why i stop buying from them cuz it was too rampant for my liking. Quote me anywhere.

I would advise you to open your two eyes if you have to buy from there. The best option is letting your two legs carry you to a verified store sir.

You don’t have to take my advise, after all its your money.

They can only sell that laptop with a worn off mousepad to a mugu for 145k.
All the best tho.... I've finally settled down for the ACER you pasted earlier. I choose a full HD display picture over the Touchscreen that Dell offers...Dell's resolution isn't that super...I need something bright.
You know nothing sir lol. With 2k you can respray the whole laptop grin its the paint that is worn-out, get a professional to give you a new coat of paint and you would be screaming “Wawu”.

The Full HD is truly bright, but the screen of mine is not glossy though. I still like it, whether its me playing me “one-piece” or watching a movie, the rich colors are noticeable.

Touchscreen? Expect you are the careful type. For me I usually stay away from things that are too sensitive.

Hehehe your mind is still wavering like the sea.

Take this approach instead, i listed everything i wanted to see and was specific starting with the highest priority. for me; keyboard backlight, intel Core i3 processor, 1TB HD were top of the list.. down to the connection ports. Be sure you write everything you need.

Secondly, what is your budget. With combination of Specs and price you should get the product you would settle with. I bought my laptop in February this year. There was dollar crisis, so prices were hijacked. It was expensive then btw 245 -270k.

My budget was 200k but i still bought it. How did i do it?, you can send me a PM for details. I succeeded in cutting about 40k off the lowest price in Naija cool It doesn’t always work but its not a bad option to consider.
ComputersRe: Should I Go For This Brand New Laptop? by Harddiskng(m):
lebete3000:
BoboKush you may give him a trial...but for a corei5 at 80k and you said you bought the laptop 240k...

That's a ridiculously huge cut off from the price, I'll be cautious if I'm the buyer.

All thay glitters isn't gold....make pesin no go buy 80k kpangolo cheesy
[quote author=BoboKush post=63499836][/quote]I understand your skepticism, i’m ready to take an escrow arrangement. The product is what i say it is and it is fully functional. If it wasn’t I would have gone with guys that keep offering btw 55-70k but i know 80k is a fantastic deal for its Specs.

Confession: I have tried selling it in Computer Village before, after assessment the guy agreed 75k. I told him to bring cash, na so me and the guy dey waka-waka from shop to shop that he want to see some people lol. That experience deterred me from Computer Village boys. Apparently they just clean it, repackage and sell for about 145k.

Business laptops are quite expensive, you can check if you have evidence otherwise please don’t hesitate to come here and shame me.
ComputersRe: Should I Go For This Brand New Laptop? by Harddiskng(m):
lebete3000:
And that 240k you pasted here is a blatant lie....you were probably going for high end specs.

The specs I pasted here has a link which directs to Jumia and the laptop goes for about 170k with specs that are quite okay for me.

Stop exaggerating things just to prove a point. You ain't talking to a neophyte.
Apparently i didn’t know know that keyboard backlight was classified as high-end tins oo.

Na the keyboard backlight hijack the price.

Lol you see me dey reject 60k for up, you dey call 55k.

Please come up higher, asking price 80k wink

I'm buying new not used
Hmm brand new for 100k? Please lets know the product and spec, you finally settle for.

Just an advise though, you have the final say; we are in 2017 don't buy a Celeron with a merger 1.6Ghz processor.
ComputersRe: Should I Go For This Brand New Laptop? by Harddiskng(m): 11:33am On Dec 22, 2017
lebete3000:
Well what's better depends on what one wants as I mentioned earlier. A 100k brand new laptop will at best get you a Celeron 1.6Ghz processor unit with possibly 4G RAM & 500Gig Hard drive. Nothing so spectacular or confusing about all these except one is a newbie.
Hmm for 100? Can you recommend any product you have found for this price.

I know how searching your a laptop can be. I got a new laptop this year Acer's Aspire E 15 E5-575-33BM. Mehn the struggle was real, i searched for over a month.

I was just looking for an affordable laptop with keyboard backlight and good specs, omo i couldn’t get any with sensible specs for anything less than 240k.

Anyways i also share your bias regarding fairly used laptops but its better and safer if you know the history of the laptop eg buying from the initial owner directly instead of Computer village boys.

Remember once you buy a brand new laptop immediately you pay for it, 50% of the value you paid for it is lost automatically. You don’t even have to wait 3 months lol.
