A few years ago Gionee was a strong force to reckon with in the Nigerian mobile sector and for a really long time we haven't heard from them , no new devices, nothing at all . The big question on our minds is : What Really Happened To Gionee Mobile? https://www.gizmolead.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Gionee-logo.jpg Gionee has been facing a tough time over the past few months and is almost on the verge of bankruptcy. The company has been facing financial woes in China, and if the latest report is to be believed, Gionee is considering filing for bankruptcy. There is also a possibility of liquidation after the company failed to pay financial creditors, marketing firms and about 400 suppliers. According to reports from Beijing Youth daily, Gionee is on the verge of bankruptcy after owning money to financial institutions, suppliers, advertising and marketing agencies. Gionee currently owes $2.45 billion. And the chairman of Gionee “Liu”, had earlier lost CNY1 billion while gambling with the company assets. Gionee, which ranked behind Apple in sixth place for handset sales in China last year, is now on the verge of bankruptcy restructuring as suppliers have halted component sales after failing to receive payments for several months, according to the report. Liu admitted in the interview that Gionee’s total debts amount to 17 billion yuan($2,447,065,000), with 10 billion yuan($1,439,450,000) of this owed to banks, 5 billion yuan($719,725,000) to upstream suppliers and about 2 billion to advertising agencies. If restructuring is not a viable option, Gionee will go into liquidation. This probably is the reason why you haven’t been seeing new devices from the company lately.m https://www.naijatechguy.com/2018/11/what-happened-to-gionee.html |
If there's one thing I hate about the European Union, It's the way they keep coming up with irrelevant policies every now and then. https://techviral.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Google-To-Charge-40-Per-Device-For-Android-696x365.png I can still understand the fact that Android is one of the most widely used mobile operating system on the market, hence, it is subject to scrutiny and constant assessment by regulators from the countries where it is present. However, now according to the latest reports, Google will charge $40 per device for Android. This is coming as a result of a fine imposed on Google by the European union. In case you don’t know what happened, in July the European Commission fined the tech giant Google because they felt the company took advantage of Android’s market leadership to force distribution of the search application and Chrome on the various smartphones manufacturers. In exchange, Google provided these companies with a license to access the Play Store at no cost. The European Commission allegedly considered this anti-competitive, because, it “denied rivals the chance to innovate and compete on merits.” Although it is appealing the fine, the tech giant Google decided to change its licensing rules to comply with the determinations of the European authorities. https://www.android.com/static/2016/img/home/holiday-hero/android-9-pie_m.png This is where the issue of license collection appears. Android itself, when treated solely as an operating system, has open source and zero cost as long as there is no Google app in pre-installation. But to make it minimally usable to the user, you need to include applications and services. But these tools are not free or open source, hence, it is necessary to license them Before the fine, the manufacturer who wanted to insert a Google application into their device (for example, the search engine) could do so if it installed everything else like Chrome, Maps, To Do, among many others. In return, there was no charge for licensing. But that was not the only rule, as the tech giant, Google allowed the installation of competing applications. If a manufacturer wanted to distribute the Bing app, for example, it would have to position the Google search engine on the Android home screen. This is what the European Commission has played, essentially As a precaution, the tech giant Google is treating the matter with secrecy, but the documents obtained by The Verge indicate that this licensing scheme will be kept optional. If a manufacturer wants to install Google applications but does not follow the conditions of the company, it can do so, but paying for licensing. If companies end up paying for licence for Google products expect the price of each phone released by smartphone companies to go up a bit. Unless Google decides to restrict the law to Europe else you’ll be paying more for an Android phone soon. https://www.naijatechguy.com/2018/10/android-smartphones-may-become-more.html |

iconix:Uhh.. Not bad but seriously you really need to work on how you present your videos. The sound effects were very unnecessary. Then stop trying to fake an American accent, it's weird. Good luck.

I'm beginning to wonder the connection Apple has with Gates (a rather awkward name I feel iOS users use to describe problems with the piece of metal referred to as an iPhone). https://www.apple.com/ac/structured-data/images/open_graph_logo.png If you're an ardent follower of tech news you would remember the Bend Gate issue on the iPhone 6 plus which made iPhones get bent while in the users pockets and right now again one of most expensive phones in the market (as far as the Nigerian market is concerned) has developed not just one but two serious problems : Charge and Beauty Gate Despite the fact that thousands of users have complained in the Apple forum about this 2 problems, the Curpertino based company is yet to release and official statement . I have a strong feeling they may need to recall all units affected with this problem since it's taken this long and they haven't even responded or released an update to fix the bug. That's simply pathetic. https://icdn3.digitaltrends.com/image/apple-iphone-xs-xs-max-hands-on-12-640x640.jpg The Charge-Gate Issue Whenever you leave the phone idle for a while and then plug it to the charger, it does not charge until you tap the screen. This means if you were busy and just routinely plugged the phone and left it thinking it is charging and came back after a while, you will be disappointed that the phone has not been charged at all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_lRJuQtBmc The user who has posted this issue in the forum says he has tried this with the 5W charger that is supplied with the phone and the 10W charger Apple sells officially and done it several times before making the issue public and says more than 100 people have raised the same charging-gate issue. Beauty Gate Issue The second problem is a bit more technical and has to do with the camera. Pictures shot on the front selfie camera on the iPhone XS Max shows images that have skin smoothening effects and you can see a clear difference between pictures taken in low light conditions and the ones in daylight. The difference can also be seen when the same images are captured with an iPhone X, which was last year’s release. So Apple rolled out a device with bugs and doesn't want to respond officially to it's customers. So much for a trillion dollar company. Apple is becoming plain greedy, just focusing on the money and profit without providing adequate support for its customers. |
AsianLoyalist:It'll brick your device, they may be from the same manufacturer but the software is tailored to suit the device it was developed for. Don't flash M6 firmware on M5 |
Apple's innovation died with Steve Jobs.. Bunch of recycled features. |
EgunMogaji:I currently don't know any Nigeria network that supports E-SIM. What's the difference .One Nano Sim and one Sim not supported by carriers in your country. Only few carriers in the world support E-Sims currently |
tafat:Not bad though. I've checked it and it makes the phone a bit faster, although it;s not my daily driver but it's a really nice update |
Cyb3rhack3r:I do hope Android Manufacturers avoid the notch like a plague |
ladysandie:Try the Oukitel C8 4G |
kolatunez:Look properly you'd find it
