Very good, thats what we want to hear, the truth. So transsion marketer, FIRE ON
Honestly, this thread has made me love Xiaomi a bit more, I've always loved it more than Transsions but calling me a marketer is the part I don't get. I'm sure you can't say it to my face lol...

I'm not even a xiaomi user, you can check my posts on Nairaland

my question is, how many xiaomi phones have you used to state the bolded ?
you can't use Redmi 7a or 8a and expect out of the world performance, alright?

I'm just just a fan of value for money

And you don't need the abuse or call anybody olodo to explain your points, can't you hold a simple argument without abusive words?
Well, My friend uses the redmi note 8, my immediate brother bought the note 9, and I've been exploring it in the past few weeks. In fact, it's right beside me right now.
I love value too. And about using abusive words, let's be fair. You insulted me first and I can't keep bottling up insults in the name of maturity.

And to conclude, if I have to use "Chinese" phones, it will definitely be Xiaomi because I believe it is slightly better. I think I've tried my best to make my points

Are you trying to compare Xiaomi with transsions?
Make ordinary redmi 9 a budget device dey senior infinix note 7 flagship

And BTW, why would a sane person compare Xiaomi midrange phone with a flagship Samsung Galaxy S10? Why not compare with Galaxy A70 and let see who offer best value for money?

I use RN8, and I can tell you from personal experience that the phone is smooth... Switching between games such as CODM to other app such as tinder, Twitter, Zoom, etc switch smoothly on my phone which is an impossible task on transsion phones. I'm also expecting an update (Android 10) by next month...

This shot was taken with GCAM on RN8. No be Xiaomi cause transsion phone no to support GCAM
Your comment is honest, I like that. However, mine is honest too. I've used Tecno camon before and it produces pretty useable images without camera ports, so I know what I was saying when I said "when properly tweaked, most xiaomi cameras will easily compete with the best infinix and Tecno phones".

My point is, xiaomi and Transsions are not as wide apart in class and performance as some people paint it to be.

I seem not to understand the people calling me a marketer because from my posts, I think it's quite obvious I'm not a lover of the Chinese phones. I've not used such in the past two years and I can't use it again (by God's grace). In fact, I plan switching to IOS by December.

At least tell the xiaomi users the phone model so that they can teach u how to use the camera, this is all about humility, just ask and many will answer you instead of sounding like a transsion marketer, even if you are not, this your post has made u a transsion marketer.
Well, I don't care how the truth sound like, I just posted my honest opinion based on my experience and if it has made me a "marketer" of any sort, so be it.

You need to pray for understanding really

how would you compare a budget or mid-range phone camera with a flagship camera(comparing RN7 or 8 camera with iPhone 11 grin)?

How would you compare MTK processors (meanwhile,tell me a phone they have used Helio chipsets recently) to snapdragon in high-end phones?

there's a reason we have categorization of smartphones, please just go and read up on Google .

All these transsion people, when you see a glaring truth, you always choose to mislead others all because of the peanuts given to you?

You are one of the numerous reasons Nigeria is still backward.
I can see lots of you are frustrated and you're just looking for who to vent your anger on. It's obvious that you lack the ability to read and understand correctly. The summary of my post is "when you buy a xiaomi, don't think you're that better than a Tecno user". Do you understand now? Olodo

And btw, I'll prefer a UK used google pixel (about the same price as the redmi note whatever or Tecno camon) than the mediocre stuffs put out by these Chinese companies.

Mention the Xioami that uses the Helio series. In the last five years, I'm very sure MTK powered devices from Xiaomi is not up to 5.

Only of recent, we had G90T, G85 and G80 powered devices.
The xiaomi redmi note 9 uses the MTK helio G80 processor. Even the Snapdragon Xiaomis are usually the low to medium tiers (600+ or 700+). It's either you know little about phones or you're unnecessarily emotional about Xiaomi. Whatever the case is, it's none of my business. Peace.
PhonesRe: I Am Disappointed With Xiaomi Camera by IamDavid(m): 7:24am On Jul 15, 2020
Firstly, I'm not a Transsion lover. I used to love xiaomi as I thought it's a formidable alternative to the Tecno and infinix things, considering the processor and camera. I never owned one anyways. However, my brother got a new redmi note 9 some weeks ago and my experience with it made me conclude that it's not that distinctive from the Transsion counterparts.

Reasons
1. Many xiaomi phones still use hello chipsets found in most Transsions, although they use slightly better ones. The experience is far from Snapdragon processors found in high end phones.
2. The camera isn't that stellar. When properly tweaked, most xiaomi phones will easily compete with the best Tecno and infinix cameras. And that's the end to it. It's not even comparable to the iPhones and google pixels or even Samsung s10 and newer.

So, when you're planning to buy a xiaomi phone, don't think you'll compete with people using great phones, just know you've gotten a good and affordable phone.

Nigeria may have become the epic centre of the corona virus without the citizens even knowing. If as of today the NCDC has tested only 152,000 persons of a population of over 200,000 million and recording a confirmed positive cases of 29,000. It then invariably means that if the testing capacity steps up and 152million people were to be tested, we might be recording a staggering 29million positive covid 19 cases with a vast majority most likely to be asymptomatic!! God help us all
Baba carry your analysis away jare, that's how Boss Mustapha said we'd be counting dead bodies by mid June or so. To the glory of God, that's not happening. I'm a scientist and I know it's a bit dangerous to open schools, but it's not fair on those operating in the educational sector to keep them locked till forever. Health workers, "essential" workers, politicians, religious leaders, market men and women all have their careers flourishing and reasonable influx of money. People go out. people mix. Why keep the schools shut? I have no option but to believe God will keep Nigeria safe. #schoolreopening

Stargurl20:
I've a very low self esteem, that everytime I'm being scolded about it, I always wish for death.
My low self esteem is killing me, and I feel this lack of confidence of mine, began from childhood when people would criticise my appearance. I hide my face from the world.



Something happened today that made my mum opened up to me that she isn't happy with me. We attended an event( more like a compulsory one for me otherwise I would have avoid going), and I hid in a coner throughout the party that the entire family was wondering the kind of person I'm. I know some thought I'm arrogant which is wrong.

I've cried severally today, that I wish for death....
I'm just a very young lady of 21year old.
This lack of self confidence also makes me avoid guys.
I have a quick fix for you.
1. Get close to God. You'll realize you're valuable to God, just like everybody else.
2. Get knowledge. I'll suggest you study a obviously difficult and reputable course like Medicine, Pharmacy or Nursing. Make sure you keep topping the class such that your mates and juniors keep running to you for resources. Low self-esteem will automatically become history.

Thanks for the clarification, I'm just thinking maybe there is a law like that, which is common in countries where Nigeria got her constitution concept from.

It doesn't look good for him if the impeachment is successful, it would be the other way round if it wasn't successful.
Surely, impeachment is bad for one's reputation. Even one gets impeached in small organizations, people will always remember and use it against one.

Stop saying what you don't know bro. Ladoja was impeached and Akala took over. Ladoja contested again but never got to power.

What does the rule of impeachment say.

Are you not barred from holding any political office if you are impeached ??

If true, that's dents his( the DG) hope of becoming governor of the state or holding any political office.
An impeached person can still contest for any political post. Ladoja was impeached in Oyo and he still contested afterwards.

Chimo! I must have used the wrong term.

I am not a Tribalist at all o. Abeg, I don't discriminate among people, class or religion. I believe in giving everyone d benefit of the doubt.

However, in marriage or family settings, I don't think I can settle with someone outside my tribe. My family is a very traditional one, I won't be easy and I have seen how my parents lived and I think o will love to model mine after them.

I love the Igbo culture. The food, the music, the language, the dance, everything about it.

I hope I'm not making a big mistake shutting out other tribes. Till date, d best ladies I've met aren't even Igbo.

Sincerely, I wish I did give her a chance but something kept pulling me out everytime I wanted to.
I'm happy you explained how you're not a tribalist. I initially thought you were anyways. This (your explanation) is exactly how I feel about Igbo ladies. I love them, they're usually light skinned and beautiful (oh my gosh) but to gather strength to ask them out, na war for me. I was so close to one like that, we were next door neighbours in a rented apartment and we got so well together. I was getting emotional already but this tribe thing ehn... I'm Yoruba btw

Christianity EtcWhat Are Your Thoughts About Bible Versions? by IamDavid(op): 5:05am On Jul 05, 2020
I've always been a lover of the King James version of the Bible since I was young, but on a particular day, I saw a white Good news Bible on my dad's bed, I skimmed it and I was sold on. Since then, I've always found newer versions easier to read.

Fast forward to when we had phones and internet, I got updated with conspiracies of how these modern versions are satanic.

Till date, I still read multiple versions of the scripture, and I have not seen any solid proof that these versions mean any harm. I've not seen any version pervert the core message of salvation, and other Biblical principles.

I believe in the ability of the Holy Spirit to teach us as we read, since the scriptures say "the letter killeth" (2nd Corinthians 3:6) Afterall, if we all want total "originality" of the letters, we should all be reading the Hebrew scripts and learn the language.

What are your thoughts about Bible versions?
