Phone. Oneplus nord 2

They're asking you via email or you're their office?

It's most likely them trying to extort you shaa cause they must have noticed that it's a phone

noobody:

Has the phone not been opened up before ?

madprofthefirst:

Poco f3 that I finally got after months of wait, fell this morning and now there is screen bleed that is spreading fast. Having a case didn't help. Screen isn't cracked on the outside but there is a fast spreading screen bleed that will probably cover the entire screen in 3 to 4 days at the rate it is going.
I just hope they will fix it well here in Abuja.

It's almost impossible that someone will have the replacement screen in Abuja, you might have to order one from AliExpress

Habrek:
I couldn't find where to buy poco x3 gt bro

Buy from konga

Habrek:
If you have poco x3 gt for sale in ilorin..

PLEASE SIGNIFY !!!

Buy from konga, that's probably your only option

At some point last year, Xiaomi was even the No. 1 phone brand in the world in terms of sales, between May to July to be precise.

A lot of these people you're replying are just ignorant consumers who think smartphones end with Apple. Why is Samsung producing midrange devices in droves now compared to years before? It's because they've already lost greatly to Xiaomi in the midrange segment. Now they're trying to salvage bits of that market share.

My bro sold his Note 9s 85k last week. He bought the same phone 96k brand new in 2020. Xiaomi has great resale value.

Xiaomi Redmi Note series is among the best selling smartphone models of all them, coming from a company that's barely a decade old.

*It reached no 2 actually, was never able to overthrow Samsung globally but they temporary surpassed them in Europe, I think that's what you're referring to.

One of the main problems here is that most people speak with certainty on topics they know next to nothing about and when they're corrected they'd rather double down on their ignorance

The funny thing is that the aunty that's talking might probably be using a Tecno or Infinix device

chibatov:
I think you're getting me wrong. The invoice total you see up there is what the logistics company is asking for just for bring it to Nigeria

Yeah I noticed everyone was getting you wrong, the 85k doesn't cover the cost of the speaker.
Las las paying for it will be your last option but next time try to be very sure of how much everything will cost you before placing an order, you can also try to use heroshe, I think their prices are very reasonable compared to all these other shipping companies

nani667:
X3 Pro has 8/256, same as X4 Pro... So if that's what you want just get the X3 Pro... The X3 Pro has all you mentioned

X4 Pro is very underwhelming, X4 Pro is basically a very overpriced note 10 Pro with a terrible camera... my advice is to stay very far away from that device

X4 pro is a slightly cheaper Redmi note 11 pro 5G and at 180 to 185k it's not overpriced based on the current trend and he won't be able to find Poco X3 pro now that's not being sold way above market rate unless you want him to come buy your used one

pocohantas:
I don’t need to use one. I wouldn’t be found splurging money on a second hand phone. How much more Naomi.

So in other words you have no reason for your line of thought apart from maybe that the name sounds funny.

Xiaomi devices are the third most successful phone brand in the world in terms of sales, with Samsung and iphone taking 1st and 2nd position respectively so your making it sound like they're imposters where Samsung and iphone is mentioned just shows your ignorance no offense

pocohantas:
Odiegwu. As I no know wetin to use money do.

What Xiaomi phone have you used to come to this conclusion that it's a waste of money

atheistandproud:
Because of the people on this thread like this is why I spend less and less time on Nairaland.

Mei.ster there is really nothing to be said. You for no bother. You have finished work anyway.

The thread is getting worse each day man, it's tiring at this point

Ajay7411:
Use this site... https://shareshopship.com/

Heard about it from Fisayo Foludo, very reliable for buying anything from outside the country.

Plus there is no dollar limit here.

Their rate is #600 to a dollar and they're saying they'll charge me extra $60 to deliver to my state, you and them are not serious

Plaitex:
My redmi note 8 keeps going off at any given second. And could take minutes or hours to reboot before it finally comes up.

Please what can I do to stop this? The phone is over 2 years old and has no known fault except this

How much space does your internal memory have ? Do you have pending updates ?

Exumal:
I no get strength sir, na you win!

Tell me thank you for educating you first

Mustiboy:
Redmi Note 10 Pro has better cameras than Poco F3

I know that's why I said if camera isn't his priority he should go for F3

Most phones around that price range these days have oled displays which are always very expensive, might not be as expensive as that of S10+ but expensive still so have that in the back of your mind. If you really want to spend up to 200k and camera is not what you're most interested in then go for Poco F3 or if you want to save some money then Redmi note 11 or 10 pro, there's also Poco X3 GT from konga, it has a cheaper and lower quality screen than these other ones but has an amazing performance

Exumal:
Shifting goal posts. Anyway, make I score small penalties. Redmi note 11 well reckoned for heating issues. Or note 11 na flagship too?

Referring to Poco M4 pro.

Samsung scandal reveals that these new powerful chipsets are not being properly managed. Lest I forget, my point is what is the benefit of a powerful chipset that is not properly managed, optimised and cooled for sustained performance.

Concerning inhouse chipset, the borne of contention is Huawei not Samsung. Why mention exynos while we have bionic too?

Which goal post did I shift ? I clearly mentioned budget snapdragon chipsets from the beginning and you're bringing flagship chipsets to the conversation.

You said Inhouse chipsets are the best and I disputed that with an example. If you bring the bionic which has its own complete eco system I'll also mention googles tensor chips that have been less than ideal.

SD 680 is in no way a powerful chipset, that some stupid companies are putting it in their very expensive phones doesn't negate the fact that it's a budget processor, it literally uses the same adreno 610 GPU that SD 665 in Redmi note 8 used

Exumal:
I don't believe you're saying thermal management is cap. Hope you heard about the recent Samsung scandal? In fact the lastest Poco series released by Xiaomi had to employ another cooling mechanism by separating the charging ic far away from the chipset. Let's you forget these kind of technics are not being employed on these Redmi series, thermal management is still real and fresh but these manufacturers will let us see it. In fact, they will mask it will software to reduce the chipset performance in a bid not just to heat up.

Boss mention the phones nah, I said thermal management on budget chipsets not all chips oo.

Baba said Poco series, do you know how many Poco series are released each year ? And are you saying that all of them have thermal throttling and heating issues ?

The Samsung scandal you're referring is that of Samsung reducing the processor power in their flagship phones during normal tasks in order to reduce thermal throttling. How does that relate to our topic on budget chipsets cause anyone that follows phones knows that all the latest snapdragon flagship chipsets have had throttling and heating issues

Frragg:
he watches videos on YouTube, WhatsApp and telegram that's all app that he uses, have done factory reset and the issue still persists.

Me I don't know again, I've sold a few of the phone in the past and I've not heard such complaints from anyone

pharmtasy:
No FM radio

Lol, I remember back when I used to look at that when checking for phone then I bought one with radio and never listened to it

GloriousGbola:
it is not the make of the phone i am worried about in this case.

i am querying the SOURCE of the phone

to reiterate - the way that phone is presented - i am forced to wonder if the poster is indeed the owner, or a person actually authorised by the owner to sell it

you should have some level of paranoia buying a used phone, particularly when you are buying on a platform that does not constitute a traceable business

Samsung S10 plus foreign used has been in this price range for more than a year now so what exactly are you querying ?
You're using it's price when it was released in February 2019 as a yardstick in 2022,how does that even make sense ?

schboy3:
Among the reasons I didn't use the iPhone 11 I once bought was the aforementioned. I think i might just get a lower grade phone then, because I'm not ready to go above 250, and I want to remain on the xiaomi train.
thanks for your help.

Redmi note 11 pro plus 8/256 is around 220k

The price you mentioned is the price of budget devices so you shouldn't really be expecting midrange cameras from them unless you want to buy a used device. You can look for Samsung A12, it has the best camera in that price range

Frragg:
Good morning to all A7s keeps freezing until I press power button then it reboots itself and it happens often and again it goes off on its own help I got the phone for someone I see these issues myself too and he complains about it to me frequently. Am tired help with remedies.

First of all check to make sure it's not being caused some certain careless apps you guys installed
Before I even go further what exactly will you be doing with it before it freezes

Factory reset should be your last resort

Exumal:
Not arguing the stats but they way you put it like Huawei won't perform well at all. Below are some of reasons for this submission.
1. New processors are yet to be well optimized. Infact, you won't compare an inhouse processor to an outsourced one.
2. I'm not trusting these new processors and their manufacturers with thermal management. Na only specs and performance them dey show us, they won't tell us the other end (thermal management)
3. Xiaomi OS is buggy compared to Huawei's.
The point is, it's not about big engine but how to engine is well manage, used and we'll maintained.

Most of these is cap, a budget snapdragon chipset and bad thermal management in the same sentence shows that you're still in 2018 probably.

People keep saying that Xiaomi OS is buggy but I've personally used about 5 Xiaomi devices and I haven't noticed the so called bugginess

I used Huawei p30 pro up to February of this year and I didn't see anything special about it at all

You mention inhouse chipsets being so amazing but people keep running away from phones with Samsung exynos chipsets

Exumal:
Na that Huawei part I won't believe.

See the processors that are being compared, even if I be person wey never use phone for my life.
The SD 665 from the same year as the kirin 710 on the Huawei is even better than it

Olaoptech:
What could be the cause of my parcel being delivered to local delivery for over a month and I haven't been notified if it has arrived or not?

It's an untracked parcel and it has gotten to Nigeria, your only option is to wait till you're called and that usually takes time for untracked items

Fayrouzz:
Hello guys.

Please can i ship with a cainaio super economy global.

Although it is not free, the fee is very small.

Will this order ever arrive, and will speedaf handle it?

Speedaf usually handles cainiao orders

TruthUntold:
Afternoon guys, so I went to my local post office today looking to see what we can do about my phone that was sent to Gusau. Guy told me they don't automatically reroute packages like before, you have to ask for a "search" and request for the "rerouting".
He then took my details and put it in their WhatsApp group and said that we should "wait".
hmmm, the whole thing looks unserious to me, na just to open dispute remain.

Open dispute and say what exactly ? You've already been given a solution but you want to open dispute with the hope of eating your cake and having it

Why are you guys so ashamed to mention the processor of this 217k phone ?

Lordofalmajiri:
Someone with First hand experience is giving his review, but our ambassadors here are bent on misleading people here.
Na so I Carry my mumu self go buy Redmi unto the hype. Omo na nonsense I buy!! Phone can't even open call log without lagging. Omo I don swear say I no go believe any hype on nairaland.
Please new buyers take note. I sold off my Redmi and got myself a Nokia G20 and later added an iPhone. If money enter again, I'll buy Samsung... Never again will I near Naomi ! If E like make E dey connect to other planets.

The 160k oppo A96 and 217k Oppo Reno 7 both have the same SD680 processor on the Redmi 10c, common sense should tell you something but blind hatred no go allow you reason well

What Xiaomi phone did you use ?
