op change your specs.
the tecno phantom z is 5.2 inches not 6 inches

1080*1920 not 720*1280

Ehisnaruto: The amoled is a better screen because it ( active-
matrix organic light-emitting diode ) is a display
technology. While Gorilla glass is a damage and
scratch resistance sheet of glass used in many
modern phones as a cover overtop of the screen
technology but as of yet isn't a display technology on
its own.
These days most phones use both of these in
combination. Samsung Galaxy S2 uses a "Super
AMOLED Plus" display and a Gorilla Glass plate
overtop.
So you can't really compare the two.

you just contradicted your previous post.

Ozegbe: basically I do Oracle. PowerPoint presentation. virtualization
read a lot with Adobe and do lots if video convertion.

the windows surface can do those tasks with ease.

Kessleek: What ever you mean with playing it safe, but a non removable battery, and lack of micro sd slot, is not the trending thing now, infact it is a drastic deviation that can bring "you know it"

when HTCs and the gionees made flagships with non-removable battery, a few crusified them, now tecno has one and every one is acting like they bit Chiellini.

Randerl: 1000 Likes

for what?

nitwits like you always finding faults.
mtcheeeeewwwww.

for me this is a no brainer. I'd take the surface pro 3 without thinking twice. I've used the surface pro 2 once. and from what ive watched so far. the surface series just got a lot better.

Tecno unveiled their newest flagship of
2014 In Nairobi, Kenya Wednesday. This
is the company’s foray into new grounds
of full HD AMOLED screen and quite some
work in the design and software. Tecno sells in Africa and has Nigeria and Kenya
as the two largest of their markets, with the former leading. That’s the reason many of their smartphones have hit the West African country first. Kenya got the Tecno Phantom Z launched first and this serves as the global launch that was characterized by a media launch in the mid-morning of Wednesday and a cocktail late in the evening same day who’s audience consists of important people in the industry.

Read: Tecno Phone Specifications
Android 4.4 KitKat
2 GHz Mediatek MTK6592 Octa core
processor
450 GPU
5.2″ 1080p Full HD AMOLED Display
32 GB internal memory, not expandable
2 GB RAM
3030mAh battery
71.9 x 144.5 x 7.9 mm dimensions
16MP rear camera, 8MP front, both
have a flash and Autofocus
Dual SIM, Dual Standby
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Wide viewing angles, and 15 camera
scene modes
Faux leather back cover

Now we already have our hands on the
new device for review from Tecno and
guess this is where we tell the story. You
know, this is what you expect to find when
you go into the shops when it becomes
available. Should be some two weeks from
now.
First thing you get is this huge box in blue. But don’t get it wrong, it’s got goodies inside besides the phone. The retail package comes with both a smart view cover that snaps on the sides instead of cover the whole rear, or replace the back cover. The other accessory is a 5200 mAh power bank in the package.

The phone itself comes in a slim package,
something like the one Huawei’s Ascend
P7 comes in. On sliding it out you’ll see
the phone on the top of anther flap that
sheaths the earphones, microUSB cable
and power adapter underneath. Another
slim package under there is the one
containing the quick start guide, the
warranty card and a promotional card for
PalmChat app. The SIM extractor is also
there-in held by a card.


Phantom Z is quite some work, the 5.2
inch full HD screen is covered by both the
plastic cover that has a few of the phone
details and when you peel that off there is
the screen protector pre-installed. The
rear also has a paper cover with a few
instructions for set up. On peeling the
unnecessaries off you get to drink in the
beauty of the device that lies underneath
the scratch proof Corning Gorilla Glass.
The front is this black front-for the record
I have not seen a white version of the
device even if marketing says it’s going to
sell in both white and black options-has
both on-screen and physical touch
menus. One is like an absolute home
button that takes you home from
wherever, it is also the one you press and
hold to show the open apps for
multitasking. The other usuals are menu,
back and “home” menus, the latter
functions as home but is also what opens
up Google Now when swiped up, it’s a
KitKat thing. So that is the short story of
why the phone has two home keys.
The top of the screen has sensors on the
left of the ear piece and both the front
camera and flash on the right. The Tecno
logo is quite intrusive in the front as is in
the rear.

The phone build is plastic in the rear that
takes a fake leather design that’s actually
removable but you won’t need to as the
phone battery cannot be removed. The
SIM cards too, storage is not expandable
at 32GB. The sides are metallic, I am yet
to establish what metal it is.


The bottom of the phone has the
microUSB slot flanked on either side by the speaker perforations which remind you of an iPhone 5 and mouth piece. On the phone’s right we have the power button as the sole object that side, the top has the 3.5 mm jack while the volume rocker and SIM tray lie on the left. The SIM tray is an interesting one as it’s able to hold two microSIMs within the same tray. Something that I’d call a first.

The rear has the camera as the most
prominent feature, it’s some bulge right
there with the flash right beneath it. The
Tecno logo is quite bold right under there
and there is the Dolby logo there to
remind you who’s responsible for the
sound system inside.


The phone does have quite bright colours
thanks to the AMOLED display and some
of the few things you pick up within the
first few minutes you have on the phone
include the fancy screen unlock effect
that has options of a crystal ball, opening
particle and a football that bounces off the
screen to unlock. The other is in the
notifications are that has quick shortcuts
at the top for flashlight, calculator,
camera, music and stop watch. I will have
to find out a bit later whether this is
editable or not. It’s handy though the
choice of applications set might not be
the ones frequently used by most.
Nothing’s lost though as there is a switch
right beneath that shows an option of either the phone notifications or other often used settings, with a tap and hold capability to go right into the selected setting further settings. Something I like is that it does come with both home- screens and an app drawer, allowing you freedom to choose the apps you want to show on the home screens. A few flagships like the Infinix Alpha Marvel and Huawei Ascend P7 don’t. Though with the freedom that is Android, you can always download a launcher off the store and get this back.

What else would you like to know? Oh
yes! It comes pre-installed with many
apps, I can count upto 45 including
manufacturer apps. Most of these are no
protected, so should you find the “bloat”
not useful to you then you can uninstall
them. Some of the quite useful apps include Swiftkey optimized for Tecno, a very great idea, Flash Share, an app that allows you faster sharing via Bluetooth, CarlCare app that is there to guide you through reaching customer care by providing local customer service information including an option to dial right from within the app. The app is
universal with country specific info, so
you just click your country and you get
connected.

[quote author=Ogidi-Olu]I bought three of the phone two days ago and I'm gonna get another tomorrow for some people. The phone has one of the best packaging I've seen in a long time.

What you get in the box:
1. Gionee M2 phone itself.
2. 4200mAh battery.
3. Handsfree.
4. Charger.
5. OTG cable. I'm especially impressed with the inclusion of this. Even Sammy and other big OEMs don't add this to the package.
6. An extra black/white back cover meaning u can change the colour of the phone by easily changing the cover from black to white or vice versa.
7. A flip case.
8. User manual and warranty card.

You see why I think it has one of the best phone packages? And for 23-25k, I think it's the best budget value-for-money phone out there. . Go Gionee!
Btw, I don't own one so u won't think I'm their spokesperson.




Seriously? For a 23k fone with all the extras? Damn the viewing angles man.[/quote]they expect you to use it to charce other phones thats the reason they included the OTG cable in the box.

Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini, has voiced
his support for Luis Suarez surprisingly
and said the four-month ban imposed on
him by FIFA is “excessive”.

Chiellini was the target of the bite incident
and blasted Suarez after the game, which
the Azzurris lost 1-0, sending them out of
the 2014 World Cup.

However, after the world football body
announced the punishment for the striker,
Chiellini has said that it is a bit too much
and Suarez might be left alienated.

“Now inside me there’s no feelings of joy,
revenge or anger against Suarez for an
incident that happened on the pitch and
that’s done,” he said in a statement on
his official website.

“There only remain the anger and the
disappointment about the match.

“At the moment my only thought is for
Luis and his family, because they will face
a very difficult period.

“I always thought that official judgements
are unquestionable, but on the other hand
I believe that Suarez has been excessively
punished.

“I sincerely hope that he will be allowed,
at least, to stay close to his team mates
during the games because such a ban is
really alienating for a player.”
