Pls just take a look at the motorola edge series

People are sleeping on it . The phone is instant attention seeker . People have stopped me and asked what phone is this , i use the edge 40pro. I know there is 70pro now , but damn !! How slim it is
Battery dey last , speakers so loud , louder then my iphone 15 pro max .
Dont even talk about the screen , that what people get instantly attracted to and i think the aspect ratio .
They mostly think it’s Samsung

Motorola was once own by google ( that why if u want stock android experience, its the right way to go!) they extracted what they wanted to . Then sold it to lenovo just to start their pixel line up ( i have used up to pixel 8pro) but i give it to Motorola. The phone too sweet to operate pass pixel self
If you don't mind, kindly drop some Motorola phones within the price range the OP indicated.
RomanceRe: Physical & Behavioural Traits I Am Most Attracted To In A Man by jiggar(m): 7:32am On May 29
Goldrosewine:
This does not imply sexual interests, abeg o just bored today on this holiday and I have decided to rant here, since I saw a similar post recently about a guy saying confidence is what a lady cannot resist in a man. I won't appreciate any unsolicited messages🙏

Dentition: Gap teeth (you know what I mean, especially a small one right between the central incisors) or just between the lateral incisor and canine)

Thick wrist (not fats deposit, just wrists with a wide circumference)

Minimal or no bodily hairs. Yeah a lot will hate me for this, just my opinion which may change or not. But those beards, chest or armpit hairs? Taah!

Height. However you must not be too tall. I am 5:9 so anything from 5:6 to 5:11 is perfect.

Modesty and awesomeness (not extreme masculinity) I am not a feminist abeg. I like guys that are gentle, pull the chair for you at the restaurant, hold an umbrella for you, hold the door open for you, just being a gentleman. Absolute modesty and simple too. Not a show off dude haha!

Healthy lifestyle. There is nothing I dislike more than a guy who smokes or drinks or do both. I don't just dislike them, I h-word them. Take your good health seriously guys, go for rehab if you need to.

Small inner circle. Guys with few or no friends. The introvert who enjoys his own company.

Respectful. The guy that still prostrate to greet his dad at 30 years, still run errands for his mom at 35 (not necessarily because he is living with them, but maybe sometimes when he visits or when they give him an emergency call) that level of respect is the norm for every omoluabi.

Not bald. As much as I dislike body hairs, e no reach head abeg🤣

Belly fat. (Not pot belly) I love belly fat in a man, especially the type that gives him the wealthy boy vibe when he's in a native. I don't know but in Benin republic, I once saw this muscular, six pack guy that bullied people and he had an altercation with this gentle guy who looks ordinary, he even had a fatty belly. Against what people thought, it was the muscular guy that needed saving o, see blue black beating. Lol. It kind of left an impression on me.

Speech intelligence. Even if you no know book, just have good oratory skills and be eloquent. I would like to see my man on a podium speaking with great eloquence while I sit in the crowd or assembly just admiring him and looking at how other ladies are admiring him😊🥰🥰🥰 aiish

Phobia. Scared of snakes or rats or spiders or cocroaches lol even my cousin would tell me I will never find this trait in a Nigerian man. But I am not scared of those things. So I would really like a guy that has such fears, that way I would be able to do something for him and it would make me feel good🤦🙈 it's hard to explain honestly.🥲🥲


Ambitious. he dreams big, not jealous of success, just envying it and ambitious to reach the top too.

Laughs a lot. That would be golden!

He cries. Like, weep Take this from me. If you ever express your sadness in tears while in your girl's arm, it does something to her heart... she'd start clutching to you so hard. Don't be manly all the time. Sometimes, just let the feelings flow. Life is already hard for everyone, talkless a man.🥺 I feel u guys.

Straight legs No vex but I dislike wobbly legs... and many guys have come to have a sort of disfigured legs due to bad walking posture, trying to copy one silly trend or so, etc.

Gentle with kids and pets That would be another golden trait!

Extremely decent with words and actions when in public The way he eats, talks, interact, just everything. Especially in Nigeria where people judge you by your countenance and how you 'carry' yourself.

You know the sort of guys that gleefully talk about women's body parts in public? That's so uncouth and all ladies detest such.

Gold🌹🍷

I must say, your write-up is extensive but it's what you want, and there's no crime in having preferences (You no kill person na).

Ironically, all your stated requirements qualifies as being me, but only two will, well... takes me out of the equation, which are (1) and (3).

So, I do hope, your wishes come to pass sooner than later.

I will see it later today, but I'm seeing mixed reviews, some persons say they don't understand it, others are saying it's the best ever.

Yeah, there are some confusing parts in this episode.

As for their Satan PR, make dem continue, I don't see the link of this episode with the preparation for war against the Viltrumites except they later call on demons and Satan to fight Viltrumites which is dumb cos Viltrumites are stronger than them.

But whatever floats their boat.
Absolutely spot on.

RomanceRe: Wedding Called Off In Imo After Groom Discovers Old Social Media Photos Of Bride by jiggar(m): 6:36am On Feb 17
Dzzzz:
Ain’t it the same lady who posted last year about mistakes she made earlier in life!!
You are very observant.

I'm guessing it was like three weeks ago, when a video surfaced here on Nairaland, where she said, (while lying on her bed) she wasn't married yet because of some mistakes she made in the past.

I truly believe she's the one in that particular video.
FamilyRe: What My Married Ex Told Me. by jiggar(m): 9:12pm On Feb 12
notobiafrababe:
This is my honest take on this matter.
First of all, you handled it well by telling her clearly that you shouldn’t be the one she’s complaining to. That was mature. Once someone is married, especially to another person, emotional boundaries must be respected. No matter the history, you are no longer her safe space.
Now let’s address the real issue.
Marriage is not Instagram. Marriage is not wedding pictures. Marriage is not matching outfits and anniversary captions. Marriage is two imperfect people managing expectations, responsibilities, finances, personalities, family pressure, and sometimes regret.
Some people marry for love.
Some marry for money.
Some marry for pressure.
Some marry for security.
And some marry thinking “it will get better with time.”
But marriage only amplifies what was already there.
If she married a man old enough to be her father because she thought he was “gold,” then she made a choice. Whether that choice was influenced by comfort, pressure, or glitter it was still her decision. Regret after marriage does not automatically mean marriage is bad. It simply means she may have chosen wrongly or for the wrong reasons.
Now, to your question:
Are married men not spending time with their wives?
Some are. Some aren’t.
Are all marriages enjoyable?
No.
Are some marriages peaceful and beautiful?
Absolutely yes.
The difference is not age gap alone. It is compatibility, communication, emotional maturity, shared values, and realistic expectations.
A happy home is not built on: • Money alone
• Social media validation
• Age difference
• Pressure to “secure your future”
A happy home is built on: • Friendship before romance
• Emotional safety
• Mutual respect
• Financial understanding
• Honest communication
• And choosing your partner daily, even when feelings fluctuate
The bigger red flag here is not her unhappy marriage. It is her constantly coming back to you emotionally. That is emotional cheating territory. Whether she realizes it or not, she is trying to reconnect with a past comfort zone because her present is uncomfortable.
You are wise to consider blocking her if she continues. Protect your peace. You are not her therapist. You are not her rescue mission. And you definitely are not her backup plan.
For those planning to marry in the future:
Don’t marry to escape your current life.
Don’t marry because of pressure.
Don’t marry because someone looks financially secure.
Don’t marry someone you cannot talk to freely.
Don’t ignore red flags because of “benefits.”
Marry someone you can laugh with on a bad day.
Marry someone who listens.
Marry someone who respects your growth.
Marry someone whose values align with yours.
Marriage is enjoyable when two people are intentional. It is miserable when one person is pretending.
And lastly if someone leaves you thinking another place is greener, let them stay where they planted themselves. Don’t water what walked away.
Protect your single and peaceful life until the right person comes.
That’s my two cents.
You right intelligently, but if possible, next time try to apply line breaks to your post.

It makes the entire write-up smooth for easy understanding.
PhonesRe: The Xiaomi Thread. by jiggar(m): 9:08pm On Jan 13
Entanglement:
that's the only advantage I see with the 3.5mm jack.
But this method is not safe oh. You risk electric shock and endangered your life
t33why:
That's a terrible way to use a mobile phone
🤔 Generally, no major risk if your phone supports it. Using the 3.5mm jack and charging via USB at the same time typically isn't dangerous if:
- Your phone supports simultaneous use.
- You're using original or certified accessories.

Potential minor concerns:
- *Battery strain*: Charging while outputting audio might slightly increase heat, but modern phones handle this.
- *Audio quality*: Might get interference if your setup's not great.

If your phone's made in the last few years, you're likely good to go 😊. Still unsure? Check your phone's manual or specs.

One of the worst film I've watched this year, these people are crazy
The title of the series sounded like... This is going to be a great one.

And then when the tilapia people came to address the humans mixed with some level of threats, I said within me, this is going to be one tough and amazing series.

During the meeting with the humans, the geisha-fish people then did something that even surprised me, by dumping plastics and wastes all over the world, which they gathered from the sea, to pass a message of the uncontrollable damage man has done to the waters of the world.

There and then, I said, chai, this series go comot smoke.

I even exclaimed...Omo see series na.

But then, to my utmost dismay, they somehow, managed to introduce 'WOKEmazi' into the series and from that point forward, the show just died.

I can't even rate this series because, it can't just be rated.

HealthRe: High Blood Pressure: The Silent Killer Many Nigerians Are Ignoring by jiggar(m): 6:16pm On Dec 11, 2025
hajarat01:
High Blood Pressure (HBP), also known as hypertension, is one of the most dangerous but most ignored health conditions in Nigeria today. What makes it even more deadly is that most people don’t feel any symptoms until serious damage has already been done.

What Exactly Is High Blood Pressure?
It happens when the pressure of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries is consistently too high. Over time, this weakens the blood vessels and strains important organs like the heart, brain, and kidneys.

Why You Should Take It Serious
Untreated high blood pressure can lead to:
✔ Stroke
✔ Heart failure
✔ Kidney disease
✔ Loss of vision
✔ Sudden death

Many people walking around today don’t even know their BP is high.

📌Common Causes in Nigeria

Too much salt in food

Stress

Lack of sleep

Alcohol and smoking

Being overweight

Family history

Lack of exercise

Warning Signs (Often Ignored)
Although hypertension usually has no symptoms, some people may experience:

Persistent headaches

Chest pain

Dizziness

Blurred vision

Shortness of breath


📌 How to Prevent or Control High BP

Reduce salt intake (Nigeria foods can be very salty)

Check your BP regularly

Exercise at least 3–4 times a week

Eat more fruits and vegetables
Reduce stress

Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol

Take your medications consistently if prescribed


Final Note
High blood pressure does not respect age. Even young people in their 20s and 30s are now being diagnosed. The best thing you can do is to know your BP number and take action early.

Stay healthy. 💙
Feel free to share your experiences or ask questions.
An almost perfect write up, the only major short coming was that, no exact values or readings was given which indicates what HBP is.
PhonesRe: Which Should I Choose Between The Phillip Essence 20 And Tecno Spark 40? by jiggar(m): 5:46pm On Dec 09, 2025
coveredchic:
Hello Nairalanders,

I will appreciate your guidance/opinion in helping me choose between two choices open to me.

I currently intend to purchase a new phone and I am torn between choosing the Phillips Essence 20, 128 Rom +8GB Ram, 5000mAh battery, 50mp camera, 6.56 inch display.

Compared to the TECNO spark 40 with 128gb Rom + 4gb Ram, 6.67" display, 5200 mAh, 50mp camera with 8mp rear.

I am not a gamer but would love good camera quality and a suberb battery life.

My budget is 150k.
NB: I'm not a marketer of any brand, I just pick what I can afford and enjoy after doing my due diligence on any phone I want to buy.

Here's the verse where I got my claim from:

But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bare unto Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Michal the daughter of Saul, whom she brought up for Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite. (2 Sam. 21:8 KJV)

However you may be right as I have explained in my last post.
I believe, it's referring to bringing up Adriel's sons, not her direct children.

TV/MoviesRe: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by jiggar(m): 5:59pm On Oct 02, 2025
It has been a very long time I watched a movie where, the villain got what he/she deserves.

In some recent movies I've watched, the villain is almost always unalived by being shot, knocked done by a car or annoyingly, ends up in jail, regardless of the lives they have destroyed.

While watching Weapons, before the last 15 minutes, the movie was 6/10 for me.

However, when the film got to the last 12 minutes and the end, I quickly added another 2.5 making it 8.5/10, I was so happy with what those kids did to that witch.

The "dismantling' of the villain was satisfying.

This is simply "you get what you deserve".

I have always wondered, if the 'likes' people get from posts on Nairaland which are pure and undiluted sensationalism in nature, generates a kind of income to them?

I ask this because, the OP just wrote fiction and expects readers to gulp it down like true life story.

Reading the write-up itself already indicates a very high magnitude of 'let me write something which sounds serious but highly unrealistic' and see if:

A. They will advise me.
B. They will insult me.
C. They will call me a Simp.

All these made up stories are better suited for Nollywood, and not meant to portray real life situations.
