The Chinese vendor GiONEE has pulled the curtains on its newest Android handset, the GiONEE Elife S5.1

This thinner than a pencil Slim Jim's exact dimensions are 5.5 inches x 2.65 inches x 0.2 inches (139.8mm×67.4mm×5.15mm). The phone's sides carry the maximum thinness, while the upper and lower sides are slightly wider - possibly in order to accommodate the micro-USB port and headphone jack.

Aside from being fashionably skinny, the GiONEE Elife S5.1 is a compact and beautiful phone with more refined looks compared to its predecessor Elife S5.5

The Elife S5.1 packs a 4.8" AMOLED display of 720p resolution and runs on the Snapdragon 400 chipset with a quad-core 1.2GHz Cortex-A7 processor, Adreno 305 GPU and 1GB of RAM. The rest of the specs include an 8MP rear camera, 16GB non-expandable storage, LTE connectivity, and 2,100 mAh battery.

Which methods have you tried?

Prove or?

kika23: Stuck in the 'friend zone' with that special someone who you wish could see you in a more romantic light? Here's a simple insight into getting that someone of your interest, interested.

STEPS:

1. Be Patient: The individual who has been your friend, is not going to overnight fall magically in love with you no matter what advances you make. Don't assume because you are good friends, she will believe you are a good lover to her by just upfront telling her, you have to subtly reveal it to her. Remember you first have to stack the odds in your favor first before going for the kill, but we'll come to that later.

2. Carry on being a good friend: Don't just stop all friendly things with her and become this new flirty guy. You'll creep her out and lose her friendship.

3. Be Bold: This is probably the reason why you got stuck in the friend zone anyway. Let her know how amazing you think she is (but don't overkill it), live in the moment, when you are out, compliment her on her physical features, for example "you always look great, but tonight, your figure in that dress...... simply flawless"

4. Flirt More: Start flirting a little more. Learn the art of kino, touch her more especially when flirting. But don't just flirt with her, flirt with other women, especially in her presence (don't overkill though), let her see that other women desire you. By doing this, you are leveling the playing field. Allow her to think you are interested in other women, it displays confidence, she'll respect you.

5. Go for the Kill: By now you are ready to ask her out on a date. The best way to do this, ask her out at an even where you are likely to be a very important figure in the room, for example your birthday party. Take her outside to somewhere quiet, where the two of you can be alone, pull her in close, look her dead in the eye and say, "would you like to go out sometime?" She'll know its not on a friendship term.

6. Get physically early: You need to get out that friend zone, and the best way is to get intimate. When you go out, hold her hand, put your hand around her and read her body language. If she's not pulling away, she's comfortable with you.

7. The kiss, if you get a chance before the end of the date, take it, if not, at the end of the date, hug her with your hands slightly above her waist: With your fingers gently pressed into the arch of her back, she will naturally come closer, kiss her cheek, slowly kiss her neck, look into her eyes and go for the lips.

Gurl..... You're good

Posman: the htcs and iphones r made of aluminium and metallic body and yet the plastic samsung is more expensive
let that sink in... that's the meaning of 'overpriced'

Well bro it might also interest you to note that, the same plastic Samsung phones cost of production is more than that of metallic iPhone cost of production... And still yet Samsung plastic is more cheaper than the metallic iPhone.

So what do you have to say about that?

mondob2k: I'm interested in buying a pad or tablet device. I like the iPad mini (guess it's abt N80k). But my budget is abt 50k.
I need advice on which device to go for that is below my budget and also has good features like camera, internal memory etc. It must not be Apple. Could be xperia, techno etc.

I just don't want to buy something I might regret buying.

NB: the camera specificied for Tecno S9 is a turn off for me. 2MP?!

Thanks for ur help.

Men if it's only game and music that you will want to play with your Tablet PC and also show off, then go for iPad but if you want more from your Tablet PC then go for Android powered Tablet PC....

Though your budget is too low to get a brand new good Tablet PC of any OS

My advice: Exercise patience till October... Then Samsung will surely release Note 10.1 2015 edition, Apple will release iPad Air 2 and Sony will release Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet plus other OEMs will release theirs too... So people will surely like to upgrade, then you will get yourself a very good Tablet PC with that budget of yours

bongolistik: I open heavy apps and play heavy games with it without noticing any lag time like the former X and XL.

Heavy games that doesn't have a name?

I pity people who buy brand names (label) instead of the actual product.

When I discovered that TECNO is a ripoff, I hated TECNO with passion but even at that TECNO is far better than the so called NOKIA x series.... Rubbish

Please your opinion will be highly appreciated.... visit this tread and give us your humble opinion https://www.nairaland.com/1875091/mr-seun-fellow-nairalanders-explain

msmon: Which topic did you tell the moderator to move to FP?. I did you are too fast in d other comment, I mean I expected your post on launching of e-ID card to make FP by this morning.

My topic that you're are talking about of course... go back and read

hafizmohammed1: I am interested in HTC One M8 DUal sim.

Hi please does anyone know who or where i can buY london or second hand used HTC one M8 dual sim?
please call me on 08068046711

Bro HTC One M8 Dual SIM is still new to the market and I don't think people will be willing to sell theirs for now because they feel there is no other device to replace it till September... After Samsung unveils Note 4, Sony unveils Xperia Z3 and other manufacturers unveils their Xmas goodie too. So I suggest you exercise more patience

Anyway please visit this tread and give us your humble opinion https://www.nairaland.com/1875091/mr-seun-fellow-nairalanders-explain

msmon: Oh! I wasn't advocating for myself, thank God you are here to clarify yourself, I posted the same topic only scroll down on "politics" sections to find out your post was more detailed and prompt, hoping to wake up this morning and find it on FP. I was utterly disappointed to find another topic, Check out the link in my signature.

Well bro.... You see thats the reason why I was kind of telling Moderato to move it to the front page and you said that it must surely make the front page that am too fast.

I've created a topic like that around 2am about BBM being arrived for Android/iOs only to wake up in the morning to see The same tread created 11am to make the front page

So bro... It's amaze me when people talks about other people's lives why there's is even worse....

Omexonomy: Maybe u did not post it in the right section or u forget to bribe seun and mukina2 with ogogoro and weed.

Well bro... I think am the one who created the topic the guy is talking about and not himself...

The topic was also created on General >Politics the same section this one that makes front page was created

The topic was also created 5:53pm On Aug 28 being yesterday which is the same launched date for the event

Even the topic is more detailed with pictures more than this one that made the front page
https://www.nairaland.com/1877657/president-jonathan-launches-new-national#25842929

Like you said I didn't bribe seun and mukina2

msmon: Dear Mr Seun,

I want to humbly request you to help give answers to the question I will ask below because I'm one of the believer in the saying that "customer are always right".

I need to however inform you that I have been following this forum since 2009 but I have not been able to produce answer to the following question;

1. What's is the basis for topic making front page?
2. Why are fellow nairalanders so concern about making FP and booking space on FP?
3. Is there any benefit intrinsic in topic making FP?
4. How do one become a moderator?

This and many more are what I ponder over and I'd like to get ur response soon and also welcome comments from fellow nairalanders as they are most involve in these.

NOTE: This topic must make FP!

Bro help me ask them... Again let's try to include this link in every tread we comment on, so that others can see and give us their views on the matter....

And this particular issue would have made me dump NL but considering the good things I've learnt from NL so I still give it a second thought.. But very soon

donedy: PDP selling Nigerians Bio-metric, Financial data to NSA since 1914 . What prevented the government from partnering with domestic payment processign companies, like etranzact or Interswitch. Once the United States gives its usual directive, Mastercard will cease payment processing and the so-called E-ID will become obsolete.

However, #TeamGEJ2015

Till then bro

Moderator please move it to the front page so that people can see and appreciate the good work of our president......

EmtolalaaPRAISE: Hmmmm,
Seriously? I knew I was gonna be this crazy one day. However, I beg that you forgive
me for not sticking to Queen's way of putting it down.
Am just a guy from around the corner of this great nation. From the south actually. I
love adventures and trust me, am social but more jovial ...
Thats enough for the introduction. It started on a day I wont forget, but please forgive
me coz am not gonna put it here. I was in a relationship with a very cute girl, when I
mean cute, I'm talking about the diva-kinda beauty. Lucky me right? yessssss. I have
good eyes and though am not allergic to ugly people, its just that you wont find them
around me. Its not like am a drop-dead handsome guy, its just that I have love for my
unborn children and I want their mummy to be so cute so she could transfer some of
her great beauty-genes to them. Good thought right? You wait n I will tell u where that
leads.
How did I get this beautiful lady probably from heaven. Well, my I would say thanks to
God for my relationships so far. the past ones I mean coz if not for the breakups , I
am sure I wouldnt have found this Godsend.
I wont bore you with the details coz I think it will be unfair and a gross disrespect coz
I sure loved them when I was with them but I dont miss a thing now.
My falling point for a woman before now combined a lot of things, beauty first,
intelligence, friendliness and Godliness. You ve got to have the four before I can see u
as a person meant for reality. Well, one of the qualities I looked out for had something
added to it. Guess ?? Shez got to be light-skinned before being classy in her beauty.
I know what you re thinking but trust me, I was the judge of that, not you!
Well, it worked for me, I got them close, they were my fans and friends, lolzzz. Its not
like I ever dissed any dark skin, coz they ve always been my best n most reliable
friends and as a matter of fact, they make up 95 percent of my friends, lolzz. Dont ask
yet!
Am dark in complexion n from my paternal n maternal side, we are all dark-skinned
Afro people. So I felt like, it will be good to have them children looking light like their
mummy.
So, I told myself that all dark-skin are meant to be just friends and nothing else. As a
matter of fact I shunned so many love that tried growing. I killed many feelings and
broke some hearts especially that of a friend that I was with for years. I loved her
though n she showed hers without holding anything back but trust me, I killed it.
Then I entered into my first and then my second relationship. Trust me, they were good
people. Light-skinned damsels who were actually jewels but not my jewel. one thing
broke it, not like I never had the patience, or anything like it but I guess it didnt work
out and am glad because nobody felt cheated but it wasnt witbout hearts breaking,
mine twice. Dont pity me, lol.
Lemme end that part because its part of a book am writing. lemme point this out to
you and I think its good U understand it.
"THE FUTURE YOU HAVE WITH ONE LADY IS DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE YOU WILL HAVE
WITH ANOTHER".
Make no mistake about that, so choose wisely the person you are going to share your
times and moments with. The best thing you can ever give a person isnt money but
your time, your attention. Life is a space we have in time and if you share the
moments of your life with people who have no good role to play in your path to
destiny, then its better you were never here, let alone marrying them, AAAAAAAAAH,
na die be that na, lolzz.
Find a person that suits and understands your purpose. Love is a beautiful thing and
its always sweet, its a giver of strength if you find her.
That was just an abstract though, back to my little love story, I was emotionally
distabilized. My head was hot and the electric charges in my brain were running helter
skelter. Hmmm, I have felt this way many times but this time, I thought it would make
sense if I stopped existing because I couldnt deny the love I have for her. However, I
know love doesnt feel this way, it doesnt always keep you on standing on ur toes,
Nooooooooooooooooooooo, it even gives u a sit for u to rest ur back n a warm wash
of ur feet n then soft massage as she serves u a fruit juice to male U feel relaxed and
welcomed. That my dear, is love and it doesnt cost anything. Just your committed
heart.
My exams were close and I have failed some quizzes because of this same ship but I
couldnt just alight neither could I jump into the boundless ocean of flirting because ,
the whole of my emotional luggage was in this same ship. it was all that mattered to
me. God and my career came later, like much later. Silly right? yes! yes!!yesssss! !!
very silly but it sure had my brains n my balls.
The days have been numbered but I was just not in the mood for my professional exams
because a girl is my head.
Just then, I though of my mum. She was the best woman I have ever known. I knew at
once that she deserves some preferential love , so I made up my mind to pass the
exam for her, coz I was too dumb to think of myself.
Just then, my phone made sense to me. I entered Operamini, typed ,
www.nairaland.com and finally got myself registered on what I call 'The wonder site on
the net'.
My friend , that is where my love story began...
TO BE CONTINUED...

Do you have the summary copy of it?

Bro please... I've been hearing about this friend zone but I really never understand what it means.. Can you explain to me

NEWBIN: i think the guy is mad

simple

Mad is understatement.... Because the guy if very very far beyond what I know as madness

Missmossy: It would not even guarantee anything,any partner who wishes to cheat still will anyway.

Except if it's not properly done.... Else the results is always catastrophic if it's rules where to be broken....

Just like the foretold Catholic marriage... Nobody has ever joked with it then....

bunmioguns: what do you call it in your native language?

Yoruba (Egba) call it Aamu (inside) or Ikoko (outside)



hope am correct?

I still drink from it till date

Babalegba: @ OP , are you joking, the two phones are not in the same class. It is like trying to compare galaxy grand to the galaxy s5. I have tecnophobia but I have to admit the Tecno z owns the Infinix zero.

Check this tread https://www.nairaland.com/1873493/things-may-not-know-infinix

ife4luv21: u wan compare death to sleep abi .... tecno phantom Z murder infinix zero abi wetin u call am

Bro you might check this tread before you conclude.. https://www.nairaland.com/1873493/things-may-not-know-infinix

Yes infinix zero has been confirmed to have a 2GB RAM + 16GB ROM
check this tread https://www.nairaland.com/1873493/things-may-not-know-infinix

In that case, considering the price tag infinix zero is better.....

This one is a sad one

"I'll Never Be In Love Again"

You can write your own ticket now
I'll get by without you somehow
Don't you worry about what I'll do
I'll be fine without you

You say, you think the change will do you good
If you feel that way well I guess it would
I can live my life without you
I've got places to go and things to do.

But I'll never be in love again
My poor ol' heart will never mend
Oh, I'll find someone to hold now and then
But I'll never be in love again.

[Instrumental]

Something went wrong along the way
And there's nothing I can do to make you stay
Well, I never tried to put holds on you
That's the last thing I'd ever wanna do
So you go your way and I'll go mine
And if our paths should cross
Somewhere down the line,
I'll just say hello and shake your hand
But, if tears come to my eyes, please understand.

I'll never be in love again
My poor ol' heart will never mend
Oh, I'll find someone to hold now and then
But I'll never be in love again...

Ajascolove: Is the dual sim a standard one?

Sure

I saw this post " Your Most Touching Love Song Of All Time" the other time and I was inspired.

But the truth is that most people will not like the song you shared not because the song is not good/have meaning to it, but because they've not really heard about the song or what the song is talking about.

So I decided to create this tread so that you can get the insight of the song and if you like the song, you can go ahead and download it or better still you buy the Album to support the Artist... Hope you will like it?

Let's go

Mine is

"Loving You's Like Coming Home"

I've been rained on, I've been wind blown
Took a wrong road every now and then
I've been passed up, once or twice stuck
And I thought love was just around the bend
But lately my hope was wearing thin.

[Chorus:]
It's a lonesome and endless highway
I've been searching for so long
And after all the miles I've travelled
Loving you's like coming home.

I've been left flat, I've been laughed at,
Wound up right back where I started from.
Been the wrong way down a one way
And I thought some day my day would come.
But lately I'd almost given up.

[Chorus:]
It's a lonesome and endless highway
I've been searching for so long
And after all the miles I've travelled
Loving you's like coming home.

[Instrumental]

Well, I've been flagged down, I've been turned round
And all that I found was a dead end street.
I've been stranded, marked and branded,
Treated underhanded by everyone I meet.
But lately my dream is getting weak.

[Chorus:]
It's a lonesome and endless highway
I've been searching for so long
And after all the miles I've travelled
Loving you's like coming home.

[Chorus:]
It's a lonesome and endless highway
I've been searching for so long
And after all the miles I've travelled
Loving you's like coming home...
