Alright the 3G version is available for N27,999; we don't know if the LTE version would cost more or when it would be available. personally, if Innjoo wants to sell more they should put their products on Konga. Jumia is a no-no for me.

The Infinix Hot Note is not official yet but I have managed to get my hands on some of its details. 5.5-inch Display, octa-core MediaTek Soc, 1GB RAM, 16GB ROM, Dual SIM, 8MP main camera, 2MP front camera and 4000mah battery.

For so many Nigerians, February is the month when the election takes place this year; for the lovebirds there is Valentines day on one side; but for UAE based OEM which sells its devices in Nigeria as well as other countries it is expected to debut a flagship smartphone this month. 

Though the company has only been been releasing different teaser; from the piece up we are able to gather that the mentioned device is the Innjoo Note Pro. So far there is no word on the name of the device nor the specs but from what we have been able to piece up; it would come with a better sound quality, it would be light weight, come with a more enhanced camera, decent battery life, surely the latest Android OS - Lollipop / Kitkat more likely, faster processing speed and a very crisp display.

Innjoo has an event scheduled for 11th February, 2015 which would take place at the Sheraton Hotel, Lagos - the event is tagged 'InnjooLaunchEvent' and the Innjoo Note Pro is expected to debut there.

Elephone, etc

The brand name - Tecno is not new to the Nigerian smartphone Arena and even across some countries in Africa but so far its huge market base has always been Nigeria. The company is seriously working on completing its manufacturing plant in the country by Q3 (third quarter) 2015 or Q4 (fourth quarter 2015).

In a detailed interview with Vanguard Nigeria, Mr Chidi Okonkwo which happens to be the Deputy General Manager Tecno Mobile Nigeria confirmed that the company's manufacturing and assembling plant which would be situated in Lagos is nearing completion and it is highlikely to start manufacturing its smartphones there.

We bring you some excerpts from the interview, those interested in reading the full interview should consult the source link below:

This year, we expect to improve on what we did last year. We want to see that we have more marketing activities this year. Of course we expect more competition and even new entrants into the Nigerian market and we will definitely provide more interesting and innovative products into the Nigerian market. 

Of course we have been taking all sorts of survey in the Nigerian market to see how we can bring products that will reflect the Nigerian lifestyle. We want to bring products that will contain what Nigerians need. So we will be launching a number of devices and there will be innovative marketing campaigns to back up these products that will be launched in the Nigerian market. We as a brand are also thinking seriously about Nigeria. This is because Nigeria is one of our biggest markets. And we have a huge investment plan in Nigeria. 

Right now we are setting up a manufacturing plant in the country and we hope that the first phase of that factory will be completed by the end of the third or fourth quarter of this year. And when this is achieved, it is going to provide a lot more employment opportunities for Nigerians and we hope that this will be done this year.

We are building both manufacturing and assembling plant. By the time we complete the first phase we should be able to start manufacturing and assembling TECNO phones in Nigeria. Don’t forget that we are still at the pre-investment stage right now and we are collating all sorts of information to help us accomplish this. 

We have been working on this since last year. We have already secured the land and have started preparing the site at Epe in Lagos here where it is located and we have to go through to get the necessary approvals. We are making sure that we get everything ready to make sure that this project comes to fruition.

It is expected that once the first phase of the plant is completed in the third or fourth quarter, we will have the first batch of made in Nigeria TECNO phones.

Hate them or Like them, the brand is here to stay.

onyichick:
go n sell it to kim k n amber rose.na dem need dis tin

Kim K started the Butt Selfie (Belfie) trend on twitter.

parrotibaba:
is konga trustworthy?

from personal experience them dey try. you should choose the pay on delivery option to be secured.

The Belfie Stick is real product you can pre-order for $80
that helps up your ass-selfie game. Personally, I don't have an ass-selfie game. The stick clamps onto any smartphone and has a Bluetooth enabled controller so you don't have to rely on your camera's timer to take a picture. I imagine it's equally well suited for artistic shots of taints, ballsacks and hoo-has. 

Personally, I've never taken a picture of my ass, but that's only because I bent over naked in front of a full-length mirror once and peeked at it between my legs and I did NOT like what I saw. I swear it winked at me.

It is compatible with Android, Windows Phone and iOS. Would you like to take a selfie of your butt, the belfie stick makes it easier.

The Infinix Zero is currently selling for N30,000 plus even on Konga.

Thank me later.

You can't help but wonder when 2GB smartphones would start being the benchmark. unlike other countries that have certification agencies which monitor the smartphones in their countries.

so I won't put the blame Tecno, i'll blame the system.

Though it us not official yet, a supposed insider source has tipped us off claiming Infinix is already working on the Infinix Zero 2 but there is no details on specification, features or pricing infos at the moment.

It is normal for every successful smartphone to have a successor, the Infinix Zero was successful in the Nigerian sense 'over 50,000 units shipped in the first 3 weeks of release' the figures could have risen since launch,; so it was successful.

The first point of call is the battery; the company could make do with increasing the battery capacity (1920mAh) is somehow too small for an Android device with full operation. Asides that the upgrades would be minimal, maybe increase in display size, the resolution, 4G LTE support (that's not necessary in Nigeria ATM), 5MP or 8MP front camera, etc

Infinix would be looking to keep the price affordable whilst also making sure the Infinix Zero 2 is a worth successor to the Infinix zero.

User Opinions are all welcome.

Dabss:
Now this is one sexy looking phone! The passport looks really stup!d IMHO

passport is not really for the general public, it is more like an enterprise device.

Warlord3000:
Some people still prefer the feel of a keypad on their thumbs..

But for me.. Can't imagine going that route again

personally I can't do without a keypad phone. I have had the chance to switch to Droid or iOS but blogging from a touchpad device has been too stressful for me.

guydangerous:
the phone is still out of stock,is there no other place I can get the phone aside konga

it is a konga exclusive device.

BlackBerry today announced the BlackBerry Classic, making official the smartphone that CEO John Chen has teased for the better part of a year. The Classic has a throwback look, as it's name alludes, with a full QWERTY physical keyboard, physical navigation keys, and a nearly indistinguishable design from BlackBerry smartphones from years ago, such as the Bold. The Classic is significantly smaller than the Passport , which BlackBerry launched earlier this year, and is actually possible to use in one hand, unlike the gargantuan Passport.



BlackBerry says this phone will appeal to those looking for the traditional BlackBerry experience that made those devices so popular so many years ago. The Classic has a square, 720 x 720 pixel, 3.5-inch touchscreen perched above the keyboard and navigation keys. It's a bit smaller than the 4.5-inch screen on the Passport, and much smaller than the average smartphone's display, but it makes it possible to use the Classic in one hand and still have the physical QWERTY keyboard. The phone is powered by an aging dual-core Qualcomm processor from 2012 paired with 2GB of RAM. That likely won't cut it for modern mobile gaming, but it should be fine for plowing through thousands of emails a day, which is what BlackBerry expects Classic users to do. There's an 8-megapixel camera on the back of the phone, with a 2-megapixel unit on the front.

The Classic runs BlackBerry 10, which offers productivity tools like the Hub, Assistant, and Blend. It also can run Android apps, which are accessible through the Amazon Appstore that's preloaded on the device. BlackBerry diehards will be happy to know that the BrickBreaker game is also available on the Classic and can be played like it was on older BlackBerry smartphones.

Wizpa:
Does it come with a power bank

I don't think it comes with a power bank at the moment.

512MB of RAM at this stage mehnn; a huge nono and a turn off. but since Infinite can announce the Infinix hot which is a downgrade of the Infinix Zero. why can't Innjoo do the same with the Innjoo I1K.

Promking:
Has tecno released this phone??

for now it has only been announced. it should be available in time for the festive season or latest January 2015.

so where can we get possible questions

Allureoftheseas:
thats for the poor.

if by this you mean affordability; then it's for we Nigerians.

chyckxx:
This phone is just perfect. I'll order mine asap!! Abeg which colour fine pass? White, red, black, green or yellow?

Only the black option is currently available.

the Infinix hot is not so powerful as the Infinix Zero but it is a reduced form of the zero.

nani667:
I have a feeling that this "Mini" will be more expensive than the original device.... Tecno have really redefined the term "Mini"....

Thats very funny considering even the likes of the HTC One Mini 2 and the Galaxy S5 Mini does not sell more than their flagship device. someone need to define the word "Mini" to Tecno.
