Let me have it. I will make better use of it than your wardrobe grin
Lol... Unfortunately it's a backup phone for whenever my main phone develops a serious issue or if it gets lost.
I can't give it out!

Please wait for Samsung... I am saving for S5.
Bro I can't wait.. it's S6 I even want to buy and the money for that ain't available now, I'm certain that by the end of the year I would have enough money to afford it..

Your story is plenty. Use BlackBerry Q10
Are you wishing me well at all? undecided

I'm actually posting this with a Z10 I bought sometime ago as a backup phone and I've been counting down to when I will return it to my wardrobe..


BB10 is rubbish... undecided

I bought m8 pro for my wife.., the phone is great except that it a bit heavy and get a bit hot at times...i.e MTK for you.

Add small money and go for Xiaomi Redmi 4x, I believe that device may change your perception about Chinese phones.
If I had extra money to add, I would have bought a Samsung S5..

Bro, Money no dey...

of all the phones u listed, only the homtom ht50 comes with bigger battery and with fast charging capability. its 3+32G also makes it superior of the list. I will advise you go with the ht50.

i will go for the 3gig 32gig out of the phones. So i can use it as a gaming rig, mp3/mp4 player or a flash drive when it becomes useless.

coming from a samsung galaxy note2 soon to be upgraded to android 7.0, i dont think i can use a phone that doesnt have support for custom roms.

And to top it all, all these techno, infinix are over hype, my sister changed from hot note to the note 5lite, kai all those phones are pure rubbish interms of screen and usage, laggy crap but their camera is way more better indoors than my 8mp.
Thanks boss...

35k will get you Samsung S5.

The S4 is around 25k.

Except you are just hell bent on buyin' those junk. Jus know you'll be lookin' 4 a new phone in a year's time.
Direct me to where I would get the S5 for 35k and I'm going for it..
I'm currently at Owerri..

A simple search through Nairaland would give you an insight on the price of the S5..

You have 30k and you want to buy a new china phone? Asin conc chinco phone of d Tecno, Infinix, Gionee, Malata (and what the hell ever they call themselves nowadays undecided)

Why don't you buy a UK used Samsung S5? I'm sure 35k can get a very clean one. Its much more reliable than these strange soundin' phones you are mentionin'. After a year, these inferior phones will develop one irreversible fault or the other due to their inferior hardware.

The Samsung will still last longer than these phones despite being used.

This is fact.
Bro be realistic, 35k won't get you a UK used Samsung S5, it would buy a UK used S4 rather.. You obviously read where I said that my last phone was S4..

I'm a samsung freak and I'm gonna return to samsung by the end of the year.


Those brands are not unknown bro, you just don't know them.. I've followed them for a long time!

Phones › China Won't Kill Me With Options! Please Help A Nairalander Make A Choice. by NLOwner(op):
I swear I'm the most confused human being right now gadget wise..


Here's my story.


Mid-august my ever reliable Samsung S4 fell from the top floor of where I live and landed face flat on the concrete compound and lost its screen, we know how affordable samsung screens are..


I decided to allow the phone rest after serving me well and use the money for the screen to get a cheap alternative I can use till December when I'm most likely gonna be boxed up to buy another samsung..

So I gathered my 30k and started looking for a phone of that range..
I stumbled upon the Leagoo m8 pro here on Nairaland and liked it, 5.7 inches screen, 2gb/16gb, fingerprint, dual cameras and 3500mah battery and was still within my budget.. *look at God*

I chatted bobo.65 about the phone and he suggested Oukitel U20 plus, I read reviews of the phone and I was wowed.. What actually won my heart was it's Full HD screen, I knew I may not really miss the display of my samsung with this phone except that the samsung is amoled while the oukitel is LCD. I checked the phone on Jumia and price is 30k on the dot, shipping and delivery took it to 31,650.

I was just about ordering for the phone last week when I saw homtom ht50 at a jumia ad somewhere (could be their site or on facebook), this particular phone is offering me 3GB/32GB plus a 5,500mah battery for its price..
Since I'm just looking for a replacement phone it's evident that I don't have any specs at all in mind, as long as the phone works and gives value for money I'm in.. I imagined all the things I could do with a 3gb RAM and a 32gb ROM, all the movies and games and the work I can perform on the phone and yet still get a backup from a 5,500mah battery, this is heaven.. Price on jumia ranges from 32-36k depending on seller so this meant more cash.. I already planned to up my budget and make the order this week when I woke up this morning and met another shocker..


Here comes the Doogee mix lite, it was unveiled just last month.. a truly bezel-less phone, 5.2 inches, dual 13mp back cameras and an 8mp front shooter, corning gorilla glass 5 at the front and back.. The external design of this phone is really beautiful and eye-catchy.. Though it is just 2gb/16gb and a 3,080mah battery but I believe it's a compromise for the price and it ain't a Deal breaker to me..

Phone ain't available on Jumia yet but it retails for the same price as the Homtom ht50 at Aliexpress which means it could sell for 35k max when it's finally available on Jumia..



Brethren I'm finally overwhelmed, don't know which way to go again and I'm scared that before Jumia makes this phone available, China would make another move that would kill me completely..

Please help me make a choice of device..

Leagoo M8 pro
Oukitel U20 plus
Homtom Ht50
Doogee mix lite..


Which do I go for?


Tecno, Infinix and Itel marketers/fanboys please keep away from this thread, I don't want your hot 5 lite or spark K7 neither am I interested in P51 and S31.. undecided


Thank you..!‎

A visit to Leagoo M8 and M8 pro thread would convince you.
There are countless threads blasting Tecno and their mediocre phones, Have you screenshot them and post here? The least you'd do is to carry your unboxing videos and goan post there..

If you weren't partisan, I could have ignored this, but every now and again you keep trying to badmouth other brands and make it look like Tecno and infinix are the only Immaculate brands..

If Tecno and Infinix are such good brands like you're making it seem, why are they not being sold in China, their supposed country of origin? undecided

You are the cra*y One
Don't even try to price market you can't buy..

The best thing that would happen to you now as a Tecno marketer/fanboy would be to ignore my mentions..

I singlehandedly humbled Itel and her marketers, you're a small case to me..

Stay on ya lane and don't talk unless I ask you to. angry

I can only recommend what i've used or what i'm using. i'm not going to recommend what a friend used before changing to mine. S4 is the phone that frustrates you enough to get a low end Tecno as a replacement. I still recommend Leagoo to people too....i mean if the cash no reach, there's really no other option.
Actually bro, Samsung S4 is the phone that you would use and swear never to use Tecno again in this life.. grin

The fact that a friend of mine was frustrated by his Toyota Camry does not mean that all Toyota Camry users are frustrated neither does it make Toyota Camry a bad ride..

My point is, if ya friend was frustrated by his S4 to the point that he preferred Tecno over it, then maybe what he had is a defective unit or he just wasn't lucky..
Samsung S4 is one of the most reliable devices ever produced by Samsung, I'm using one and I ain't frustrated..

Never seen anyone besides Nairalanders and 2 YouTubers who reviewed Leagoo M8 so i'm gonna stick with Spark K7.

Also because i've experienced it first hand.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6rM3vOaYJg&feature=youtu.be%20%E2%80%A6
The fact that Tecno and infinix gives you free review copies of their smartphones does not mean that you would sell your conscience to them too.. I don kukuma tell you before say na their phones you dey promote here, nothing more, nothing less...

If I argue too much with you now, you'd tell me that everybody is selling their leagoo m8 for almost free or that Samsung s4 is not supported on playstore angry

The fact that you market cheap lands too doesn't not change the fact that you're either a Tecno marketer or a Tecno fanboy... Your recent posts in phone section proves it..
