That's what I intend to do. Please advice me. Do I go for a new 1gb or a used 2gb phone (Gionee P5W or M5 Mini)?

Gionee P5W and Gionee M5 Mini are two separate phones with distinct specs. The first thing you should know about Gionee M-series is that they are built with focus on power (battery).
If you have the cash, go for a phone with nothing less than a 2gb RAM and a good battery. P5W comes with a 1gb RAM and a 2000mah battery whereas M5 Mini comes with a 2gb RAM and a 4000mah battery. Both phones have same screen resolution. If you get a very very good, clean and trusted M5 Mini, go for it. Otherwise, go for the brand new P5W.

The worst part is that SMS is charged at N8/unit and calls are about N40/min. So if other words, you are actually being given 3X unworthy bonus rather than the 6X they are claiming. Just dumped my sim

Exactly! Unfortunately, I only got to discover this after recharging N200 using *555*PIN# this morning. My main balance vanished and I was given an annoying N1200. I called customer service and an agent explained that the calls are even charged at N40/min and N8/sms. I've forgotten how much he said they bill per kilobyte when surfing.
Byebye to airtel *555*PIN#..... Criminals!

It's still very surprising that in 2016, people still rate a particular network as being the best because it's good in one township location and bad in another, all within one state. Glo should quit calling itself data king despite the affordable data they dish out. I mean what's the point of having Glo network mast in your neighborhood but yet unable to enjoy decent Internet connection? If you leave that street enter the next one, glo data connection go vanish, upon say e slow die. Lol. So to use glo data, I need to climb my roof or go sidon under the mast abi park go location wey the network speed na fire? Lol.

I am a heavy downloader. I'm sure gonna miss the airtel N100 and N200 unlimited data plans without having to switch sim cards. Could download a minimum of 6gb with the former.

Yes....you can do it over and over in one night... The time for the plan starts 11 to 6... So you'll need approximately 600naira for 6hours... You can pay 200naira for two hours three times in one night to do 6hours browsing... After every two hours you load and subscribe again or anyhow you wanna do it...



The migration part IS tricky ....i keep hearing people having problems with migration... But after migrating successfully you can even use 300naira and download 5gb worth of data due to the network speed set at 1mb/s

With 200 naira for two hours, I get to download nothing less than 6gb on my laptop via Hotspot. The maximum downloads I've made for 200 in one night was 6.65gb. And my download speed USUALLY ranges from about 800kb/s to a peak of 1.9mb/s. It sometimes remains steady at 1.2 to 1.4mb/s for over a minute.

Is that your default data counter or is it an app? (If it's an app...Please what's the name?)

It's an app called My Data Manager. You can get it on playstore.

Last night, I downloaded the files shown in the screen shot. If you add them up, it's a total of about 450mb. After that, I checked playstore and updated my WhatsApp and another app. Data counter showed that total used was 504mb.

The night plan is real but the data is not up to 500mb mb as mtn claimed. After staying awake like a wizard til 12 midnight, i was disappointed eventually. I started browsing by 12:00am sharp and by 12:45am, my data had already disapeared.
This was how i caught dem red handed: i created a single folder for all my downloads n made sure i browse no other website except tooxclusive.com(its a music website n a very light website as does not comsume mb compared to facebook that reloads per seconds).
By my calculations, i was able to download 205mb worth of music. So i take it that 45mb was taken for browsing the website making it a total of 250mb n nt 500mb as claimed by mtn. What a scam!

Even if it's 200mb for 25 naira, bros it's not bad at all. Anyway, I have used this plan about 3 or 4 times to download files worth 450 to 500mb each night and honestly the download speed is great.

Some people can be soooo ungrateful sha. N25 for 500mb yet they complain that it should have been unlimited. Truth is even if any network decides to give each subscriber 1gb for 1 kobo, some people will still complain. If them no give, una go insult. If them give, una go still insult. Mtchew!

I think MTN has not done much.... Globacom Nigeria offers 1.5GB for N1000 and the good thing about theirs is that within your 1 month validity period as far as you don't let the data go out completely i.e. if you have like 20MB left, you can top up with N500 and you get 1GB. Nobody has been able to beat Glo on that yet... So, I don't see the fuss about the rubbish MTN is doing, after selling SIM cards to Nigeria for N70,000 and telling us that per second billing wasn't possible in Nigeria - (useless fraudulent company).

If you had taken your time to properly investigate the glo issue, then you would understand why LOTS of people choose MTN over Glo. There is a Glo mast close to my house, but I can't even browse on the network when I'm home unless I go very close to the mast. You can hardly be on the road and enjoy average data connection on Glo network in most locations. It's not the case with MTN or other networks. So what's the point of subscribing to cheap Glo data and having to sit on your window just to get poor data Internet connection?

Breaking: Barely 72hrs after the Tiwa Savage video on marriage with TeeBillz. An insider source with Pepsi and some other world class brands confirms dropping the Nigerian music star and Mavins first lady Tiwa Savage later this week as Brand Ambassador.

Meanwhile, sources confirmed that TeeBillz was arrested about an hour ago for questioning by Nigerian authorities on cocaine usage as reported by his super star wife in same video interview where she cleared the air on her marriage challenges.

We can recall that Nigeria's pop star Davido was arrested for questioning by the NDLEA; a Nigerian Drug Law outfit after a substance believed to be cocaine were seen on the footage of his music video "Fans Mi" which featured US rapper Meek Mill.

All these copy and paste stuff. What's your source? At least do well to post your source when posting stuff like this. Source(s) should be credible too, not just some copy and paste from another blogger.

"Accelerometer- No"
Why
Even my archaic 14k phone has an accelerometer.

But it has a G-sensor. If you knew the function of an accelerometer and a G-sensor, you wouldn't have made this comment. Cheers.
