infinix hot 3 pro spots a snapdragon chipset too so tis shud be d second device to run on SD from infinix i guess

Yeah, it was called the Hot 3 LTE, but the Snapdragon variant wasn't 'readily' available in Nigeria.

Infinix just beat Tecno in the Snapdragon race, especially in Nigeria! Before now, the company had launched a Snapdragon device — the Hot 3 LTE, but the Snapdragon variant wasn't readily available n Nigieria. Now, in comes the S3:

The first Snapdragon device from Infinix for the Nigerian market.

In the video, I talked about a couple of features like the Face ID and how the Snapdragon was able to handle heavy tasks.

But do you think the shortcomings mentioned in the video are deal breakers?

Like I said on the blog, Xiaomi has partnered with Jumia to sell their latest phones in Nigeria and the guys at Jumia sent the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5A just in time for their mobile week.

Now, this phone cost about N34,000 on Jumia (Original price) and at that price you are getting basic specs. By basic, I also mean, no fingerprint sensor or front flash type of basic.

Watch my first impressions below:

And let me know if you think this is a better budget smartphone than the likes from Tecno, Infinix to name a few.

Check out some of the images from the Nokia 2.


I ALSO HAVE A CHOOSE YOUR PHONE GIVEAWAY WHERE YOU GET THE CHANCE TO PICK EITHER THE NOKIA 2, Nokia 5, Infinix Note 4, Tecno CAMON CM or the Samsung J7. MORE DETAILS IN THE VIDEO

The Nokia 2 is currently the most affordable Android Smartphone from Nokia, the device is, of course, not perfect but hey! It sells at N32,000.

But despite the impressive and not so impressive specs (see the some of the specs below), is this device worthy of being called the King of Budget Phones? Well, I tried to answer the question in the video below:

So watch and let me know what you think?

It’s no news that Transsion is the mother company of Tecno, Infinix, iTel, and Carlcare, and if you are just knowing about this little fact, well, how big is the rock you've been living under

Anyway, I and a few others had the opportunity to visit their headquarters in China, an interesting experience. And I have a video to prove it!


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1canLWZW3g&t=2s

But for those who still want to see the pictures, well, here you go:

Infinix unveiled the Zero 5 in Dubai last week, an event I was privileged to attend. Of course, I had to do a quick unboxing there, so check it out:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pd9YUvJw7hI&t=44s


As far as specs are concerned, it shares some similarities with the Phantom 8, especially with the RAM and the processor. However, design-wise, the Phantom 8 happens to be people's choice.

So, over to you, which would you pick, the Zero 5 or the Phantom 8 and what would you like to see in my full review.

Miss Tech I love your review, you're really good at what you do. Keep it up pls!

Now, I have this great need to upgrade my phone (Gionee Marathon M5) to something more better with nice specs and good battery too. You know Gionee M5 comes with a whooping 6020mah which actually attracted my to the phone over a year ago. But now I need a better phone with better processor and comes witg snapdragon, better Ram and good battery too. Pls which phone would you recommend I beam my search on?

What is your budget

BabaOwen:
How much is it

Within the 67 - 75k price mark

Meet the Gionee X1s, Gionee's answer to the Tecno Camon CX Air and the Infinix Note 4.

In the video, I tried to unbox the X1s, the little guy that wants to take on the Camon CX air and the Note 4.


With 2017 being the death of the bezels, the bezels on the X1s (and the Note 4 and the Phantom 8 and yeah, I could go on and on) might disappoint some folks and while I don’t deny that they make the phone look older, I don’t think it affects the general usability of the phone — I was able to hit all the four corners of the device with one hand.

....

I am sure some of us have questions and concerns about the Phantom 8, questions that I’d try to answer in this review.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDwQmnX5dws


BOOT TEST
Like with every other smartphone, the first thing you’d do when you get the Phantom 8 is to power on the device — which takes about 29 seconds and this places the Phantom 8 in the 4th position on the boot test leaderboard.

FINGERPRINT TEST
The next thing you’d probably do is to unlock the device and it would interest you to note that the fingerprint sensor on the Phantom 8 is incredibly fast and accurate, just a tap unlocks the phone. You can also use the sensor to take a picture and accept calls.

DISPLAY

With the device unlocked, you are fully able to see the 5.7 FHD display. The screen is not an OLED display, so you are not getting the super rich and vibrant colors specifically in the reds and blues. But, overall, the Phantom 8’s screen is still a pleasure to look at, plus, sunlight visibility is quite good.


UI

The next thing you’d get to experience is the UI, which isn’t stock Android because Tecno used the latest HiOS — HiOS 3.0
The overall experience is a two-way thing — you either like it or you don't.

If you do like it, you can further tweak the option by choosing between the single launcher — which places all the apps on the home screen:

Or the Standard launcher — this comes with an app drawer.

On the bloatware side of things, the Phantom 8 comes with a couple of them like, Recharge King, to name a few

All of which can be uninstalled to save storage.

STORAGE

Speaking of storage

Okay, I admit that the title was "in part" a click bait, but the Phantom 8 is here guys!!


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Td3YuhEPxb4&feature=youtu.be

The first phone from Tecno to sport the trendy dual cameras. The Tecno Phantom 8 also boasts of other premium specs like the 6GB of RAM, 64GB of Internal storage, Helio P25 octa-core processor that is clocked at 2.6GHz a 20MP front-facing camera with dual flash and others.

Like I said in the video, the speculated price for the Phantom 8 is about N150,00 but I will update this once it is confirmed.

As always, let me know what you think about the Phantom 8 and don't forget to follow me on Instagram and the blog, it's at .

I have been using the Gionee A1 lite (Not exclusively) for a month now and with every gadget, the Gionee A1 lite has its pros and cons, all of which I summarized in the video below:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-1wiYWjUeU&t=1s


As always, let me know what you think about the device and the review.

burkingx:
Google promised us ?


PLEASE WHO IS " US " ?

Nigerians

balogun16:
yeye phone. you are a evil girl for trying to force this rubbish on us. I will sue you to court that I promise you

I await your Lawyer's summon.

vivalavida:
MissTechy, where can I buy this phone now.

It will be OK for my mum. All of a sudden she wants an Android phone and I don't want her having a phone that will be too complex for her to use

Check Yudala or Konga

ddjay:

D tin is, jumia and her sista konga will sell it 4 almost 20k or even more sef. Oda shops will do same

Freetel partnered with Yudala so it should be accurate there.

WeNoGoDie:


That your lol "twin" act. I think acting might be good for you if I'm correct. You should develop that untapped part of you.

Lol, do you know how many times I took that scene? I can't act naturally to save my life

hanassholesolo:


What's the name of the game you were playing in that video?

Unkilled

SalamRushdie:
Where did you buy it from?

I got a review unit from Google

hanassholesolo:
That video was really captivAting.

Thank you

Integrityfarms:
Is the phone in our common retail outlets like slot and others?

I am not sure about that. But they partnered with TD africa, the guys behind Yudala, so Yudala should have it in their offline stores

tensazangetsu20:
You make so much quality videos. Keep it up.

Thank you so much. I wish nairaland had a love icon. Thank you.

Pidginwhisper:
Come MissTechy shey na rat chop your tomb for the last pix ni or n you take teeth chop am

I had an injury on that finger. Thank you.

WeNoGoDie:
The device is arguably the best at that price point.

Misstechy appears to have the best online phone reviews I ever watch on YouTube. Really creative with her "twin" concept and other colorful additions. Kudos!!


My opinion though.

Thank you so much. This means a lot to me.
