MTN inspite of all criticism remains the best why because of the following
1. MTN is the only network that hardly increase call rates or move you from one tariff to another easily except when NCC were insisting that they charge flats call rate (Family and friends subscribers can testify
2.if I am not mistaken, MTN in all it's tariff charges 20k/sec to 5 international destinations e.g Usa, Canada, India, China and Uk land lines but try it with any other network you will have a story to share
3. MTN has different tariffs for different market segment e.g MTN zone for rural dwellers, MTN ipulse for Students in tertiary institutions. the rates are 11k/sec within the campus after first min @ 40k/sec to any network and 15k/sec outside the campus to all networks. MTN zone charges for as low as 0.4 to as high as 40k/sec. MTN true talk charges 20k/sec from the fist sec.
4. widest coverage but they are dubious at times

@marcjoe so sim 1 is 3g enabled while sim 2 is edg

Yeah, what i mean is sim2 is on edge and sim 1 is on 3g but it can be switched under settings..

What am trying to say is that you cant use 3G on the two sim at the same time

I would be talking about the rooting next.. Space booked while i get the links.

aze:
With more of this type of reviews l hope the Phone Section will reclaim its lost glory.

Marcjoe you have done well beyond the present shouts of Battery, Gaming and the irrelevant mixups..

Tanks.

Peppul:
And those this phone has OTA update incase of the 5.0 cuming soon

Yeah, it has ota update under settings, i recently updated my thl5000 stock rom to v1.1.1 last week which is a treat to the hotness emerging from the previous rom version. I believe there should be an update to lolipop 5.0 soon.

s3nn2x:
Go on....

I am interested...

I am more concerned about the battery life and picture quality...

Also, how is the music player?

What about video recording?

Since you have used both Tecno A+ and Thl 5000, do you think it would be wise to move from Chinese droid as bad as Tecno to another one?

The ba3 life is really amazing, the phone has refused to die , the picture quality is really great also, the music player is the bomb with its quality sound effects and surround sound which was missing in my previous gionee m2, as for the video recording i don't ve anything to say about that but i believe it would be great, am not really a picture or video freak. So i dont perform all those camera or video activities much.
Yeah, you can get the thl5000, though its a chinese brand, but its not as bad as people tag tecno android phones, btw Tecno has improved with with their phones now. And one last thing, the battery drop by 1% each till it finsihes, not like phantom a+ that jumps..

where to get this monster thl5000

Yeah, i call this a monster cos of its amazing specs and battery.
We have competent phone sellers on nairaland and i would recommend.

initialize OR Jeffy1206 OR elijahdre or tyconcepts

I got my thl5000 from initialize at 46k, but i can always recommend those 4.

swisscarter:
Price.... I saw online that the phone is $269

Approx 49k

We ve some phone sellers on nairaland that are up to the task.. They sell cheaper.

VERDICT

With the price of this phone at around ₦45,000- ₦47,000, on one hand, its relatively cheap, compared to the fact that it beats it mate TECNO PHANTOM Z, GIONEE S5.5,(MY OPINION) by some miles and its 5000mAh battery should sufficiently convince any heavy smartphone user to go for it. Its hard to find fault with the THL 5000 a massive battery, fast octacore processor, FHD(full high definition) screen and great reception make this phone a great buy. THL has promised to continue providing OTA updates to the phone, and hopefully THL will continue quashing bugs, improving performance and decrease battery consumption.

GAMING REVIEW.


The THL 5000 is a very powerful smartphone. It would be important to point out that if you are into 3D gaming, the THL 5000 runs 3D and HD games flawlessly..

Firstly when i wanted to run a test on how it handles hd games, i installed Asphalt 8.(for those who knows, it lags on 1.2-1.3ghz mediatek quad core socs), i could remember back then when i installed asphalt 8 on phantom a+, the game was lagging, and i immediately uninstalled it. .(the last time i enoyed the game was on a samsung note 3). Yeah, after installing asphalt 8 on the thl5000, i launched it and behold, the smoothness, graphics, was clearly seen. It also applies to other games, like fifa 14, batman, avengers e.t.c, they all played flawlessly.
another thing is that the gaming graphics of this device its so clear and sharp.
Below are some of the screenshots while playing HDgames on the phone.
