Phones / Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by Mobsync(m): 1:43pm On Jun 28, 2018 |
Ifedith: Lenovo Z5 is a new phone and no one has managed to create an in-depth review yet. It has only been released in China with India and possibly, the rest of the world to follow soon. There's conflicting information regarding z5's ppi. All the sources I've read and watched agreed it's between 402 and 405 but I settled for 403. All the sources I've read and watched agreed that Note 5 is 403. Whichever, there will be no difference between the displays of both phones, even if the z5 is at 405. I agree with your colors. Note 5 is available in black, red, gold, pink and blue. The red variant was launched about two ago. But the Z5 still wins in feel. It's glossy and the colors, especially the two blue variants, are mad and unique. On the release date: I know the time of a phone's release doesn't make it outdated. This is even the reason I put the outdated in quotation marks. What I was trying to point out is the fact that the Note 6 pro is just around the corner and will quickly overshadow the Note 5. I've never used MIUI or ZUI but I agree that MIUI is likelier to have the upper hand. Lastly, Corning stated that the Z5 uses Gorilla Glass 3 here: https://www.corning.com/gorillaglass/worldwide/en/products-with-gorilla/lenovo/z5.html I've realized long ago that GSMarena is not a very reliable source for phone details. The source you posted even mentions that the Note 5 uses gorilla glass even though neither Xiaomi nor Corning have confirmed it. I couldn't even find any mention of the Note 5 on Corning's website. Xiaomi itself doesn't claim using gorilla glass on the Note 5. It says it uses "durable" glass. GSMarena also states that the z5 does not support memory card even though it does. |

klexycole: VARIANTS The Lenovo Z5 is available in two variants: 6gb ram with 64gb memory, and 6gb ram with 128gb memory. The Redmi Note 5 Pro is available in three variants: 3gb ram with 32gb memory, 4gb ram with 64gb memory and 6gb ram with 64gb memory. To perfectly compare both, you'll need to look at their 6gb ram with 64gb memory variants. PRICE The 3gb ram variant of the Note 5 is cheaper than the z5 but the 6gb ram variant is more expensive or around the same price as the z5. I think it's more expensive though. CAMERA The note 5 has 12+5 mp rear cameras while the z5 has 16+8 mp rear cameras. The z5 has better picture quality and takes better pictures in low light conditions than the note 5. The note 5 has a 13 mp (not 20 mp as is often said) front camera while the z5 has a 8 mp front camera. I read somewhere that the z5 does not have front flash. I don't need it anyway so I don't mind The z5 has Artificial Intelligence (AI) in its front and rear cameras while the note 5 only has AI in its rear camera. FEEL The z5 has a more premium feel. It has a notch and is covered in gorilla glass 3 in its front and back. The note 5 looks like your regular Android phone. While it has small bezels, it's not as small as the z5. The note 5 only has gorilla glass in its front but not its rear. The gorilla glass model is unnamed and there are speculations that it's not even gorilla glass. COLOURS The z5 is available in three colors: one is black and the other two are shades of blue. The blue colors are very dope and cost about $10 more than the black. The note 5 is only available in the regular black, blue and gold colors. USB Z5 has USB 3.0 while note 5 has USB 2.0. FAST CHARGING Both support fast charging but only the z5 comes with a fast charger. You'll need to buy a Qualcomm certified fast charger for the note 5. RELEASE The z5 is newer than the note 5. It was released earlier this month while the note 5 was released in February. The note 6 will even be released anytime soon -- probably around September. This means the note 5 is about to become "outdated". BATTERY The note 5 is the winner here. It has a bigger 4000 mAh battery compared to the z5's 3300 mAh battery. SIMILARITIES SCREEN The z5 has a 6.2" screen while the note 5 has a 5.99" screen. Both are curved around the edges though the note 5 seems to have a steeper curve. The z5 has a higher screen resolution than the note 5. But that doesn't make much difference since the z5's larger screen made it end up with a pixel per inch (PPI) of 403, just like the note 5. OTHER SIMILARITIES Both support dual SIM and memory cards but you'll need to sacrifice the second sim slot to use a memory card. They both have the earphone jacks but none comes with an earphone. They also have the same processors and come with free pouches. They also have their own user interfaces, ZUI for the z5 and MIUI for note 5. I don't know which is better but I don't mind. They're both Android anyway. 4 Likes |

klexycole:Lenovo z5. It is also a bit more expensive but it's the beast. I wanted to buy the Redmi Note 5 but will be dumping it for the Lenovo. |
Politics / Re: How Kwara Government Was Swindled Of N227m by Mobsync(m): 7:51pm On Jun 25, 2018 |
This is definitely a witch hunt. It is obvious the dude has fallen out with his co-criminals? Why should a government give a citizen money to purchase an APC in the first instance? Why couldn't the state government deal with the manufacturers themselves instead of contracting middlemen who will usually end up contracting other middlemen. 3 Likes |

Well said! But how about if the jobs are not available? That's another good reason you know. |
Webmasters / Re: Which Of This Hosting Plans Should I Go For For My New Blog? by Mobsync(m): 7:36am On Jun 25, 2018 |
Like BrainnewsNg and Dotun4luv already advised, I suggest you go for a foreign host. The best so far are Namecheap and Siteground. If you still want to remain with Whogohost, either because of cost or other reasons, I suggest you go for at least, the Pro plan. 1 Like |
Foreign Affairs / Re: Blast Rocks Zimbabwe President Emmerson Mnangagwa's Rally by Mobsync(m): 6:49pm On Jun 23, 2018 |
The dude should know his life isn't safe. He used to be Mugabe's vice before both had a fallout. Then he toppled Mugabe with the help of top military chiefs and started a new government that is no different from Mugabe's. He and his army chiefs-turned-politicians need to organize fresh elections. They should not be allowed to contest and neither should anyone who held any military or political position while they or Mugabe was in power. Anything short of that is a sham. |

GenAnsahCinC: Why the disparity between RC and SSC? This is pure wickedness, selfishness and the height of greed. I hope we get a government that'll change this bs one day. |
Health / Re: A Course Not Found In The Curriculum:They Ruined Our Team by Mobsync(m): 11:46pm On Jun 19, 2018 |
Well written and articulated piece. It perfectly explains the current situation of not just the Nigerian medical sector but every other sector at large. This is the same way military officers are taught to be superior to the enlisted, B.Sc graduates are taught to superior to HND graduates, B.Sc trained nurses are taught to be superior to College of Nursing trained nurses, permanent staffs in banks are taught to be superior to contract staffs, contract staffs are taught to be superior to marketers and so on. Until we all realize that each needs the other to survive, we're going nowhere. In every organization, we need to realize that nobody is useless. The security man is as important to the success of the organization as the CEO. Their roles and qualifications might differ but their importance should never be ignored. 25 Likes 4 Shares |
