Mr I Too Know. I was referring to android devices in general, I didn't specify. Name just 5 Apple repair shops in Nigeria
Everywhere they fix phones, they fix iPhones plus there in an apple store in every mall!

And when you mention in general, putting them in one box, That is "AND". And when one is false. The whole statement is false.............Discrete mathematics.

And I'm not mr. I too know. Rather You're are the one who is mr I don't know. That's why it seems to you I know much. All the stuffs i corrected you in are normal stuffs any "real" tech person suppose to know.

bought this phone a while ago, but I have been unable to activate the 4G or 3G since I learnt it came with the feature. Is anyone familiar with the product? I can barely stand the 2G it runs on.


To Change 2G to 3G 4G LTE only network mode in Android Phone via USSD code, take the following steps:
Dial *#*#4636#*#* OR ##626* OR ##786# in your phone.
Select Phone Information.
If you have Dual SIM Select the Slot (SIM) you want change settings for.
Scroll Down and select the Option Under “Set preferred network type”

This is the worst phone of the lot; what use is an attractive design if the phone has 512MB of RAM and 4GB storage?

Function over form,all the time.PHONE



I said average specs not bad specs. 512mb Ram is bad. Something like 1.5gb ram and dual core cpu.

You didn't read my post well. Also it seems you don't know much about Tech. Google tracks every users account as long as you've made use of any of its services. Your search queries, the number of minutes your device is online, etc. Google may decide to send the data to Android OEM's based in the country to improve sales. My brother if you don't know anything use Google please.
First I need a trusted site link that confirms this. Then if actually google pick info from my phone, it's just info it needs to know, which every company even apple does. Buy when it gets extra, then that's privacy invasion!!

And yet google play music is not available in Nigeria.....?

But apple iTunes is! For years now.

I'm not done with you. I'm taking them one by one....to the end.

NaijaTechGuy:
Google's Android OS currently holds about 83% market share of Mobile devices,that's a huge margin compared to what Apple holds.
I'll give you 10 reasons why Android Devices will always be more popular than iOS powered phones.

1. Variety
There are different brands of Android phones. This variety gives users a lot to choose from. Some have amazing camera quality, others are beasts with amazing specifications. In iOS you're tied down to only Apple. You can only choose from the devices they have which are obviously limited.
Limited is what way? Availability? Does the iPhone run out of stock? They don't make enough iphones or what? Specification? Does the iPhone not beat every other phone in the market in performance? Camera? After pixel which is next? What you should say is the varsity on android make consumers able to chooses between different specifications and price based on their(the consumer) preference. But iPhone just comes in one variant and one price range based on colour and price. Therefore people who's preference does not fall into this (iPhone) tend to go for an android.


2. Target Market
The Android OS has devices that covers every country .Google has covered virtually every country on earth and can easily detect common habits and behavioral patterns of mobile phone users in any country making it easier for them to know the best devices and features that'll work in a specific region.As for Apple, they simply lack that ability .
Are you kidding me? This is the biggest joke of all time. Firstly. Which country is the iPhone not available in? Secondly, what kind of behavioral patterns of Nigerians for example did google detect to know that tecno and infinix are the only phones that can sell in Nigeria? See this one? If I bought a galaxy s7 edge, is it not the same phone the person in the uk is using? Or infinix and tecno can't sell outside nigeria? I'm still trying to get you point, Buh I give up. This has no point.

3. Flexibility and Control
Android gives you the freedom to do what ever you want with your phone. You can root Android devices with the touch of a button, Change your phone's UI by installing a launcher, flashing a Custom ROM or using Xposed Modules. In iOS you hardly have any control without jailbreaking the phone. Even after jailbreaking the device, there are still limits to things you can do.
Talking about customization, launcher, icons and changing of values. Yes android has it. But when would you guys start to realize that rooting of android phones (except or stealing and hacking of apps) only solves problems that are only exclusive to android phones in the first place!!! You root your phone and flash all the custom roms in the world 'cos your phone will never get software updates from the manufacturer. And iPhone does! Or you root your phone to delete unwanted apps and bloatware, which the iPhone does not come with!! So why should I jailbreak an iPhone? Even if jailbreaking was the same as rooting...... Oh yeah I know... Download, hack and use apps developers spend their time and money on? Nah!


4. Connectivity
There are a variety of ways to transfer files in Android Devices. You can use Bluetooth , Xender , HotKnot, NFC and more to receive apps, music, photos and other media files. iOS on the other hand forces you to download music from iTunes and you cannot even collect music from someone via Bluetooth because iPhones don't have Bluetooth.
IPhones don't have Bluetooth? Seriously? That's the end. You don't deserve to write articles talk less of owning a blog. It's like football analyst saying referees don't where boots simply because they don't kick the ball. IPhones have Bluetooth both the don't pair with non-iphones. They also pair with audio and other devices that use Bluetooth, like a car stereo. And xender is an app not a connectivity and it's also available on iphones. Hotknot is also an app! IPhones have NFC. You can't share apps and music So you don't have to avoid paying for them. And yes pay for apps and music because the owners did not make it free.

5.Budget And Cost Of Devices
Android has different phones that cut across every sector of any country's economy. There are phones for the High Class, Middle Class and Low Class. By reducing the cost of production for some devices, Android devices are able to meet the budget of almost everyone. Let's take smartphones in Nigeria as an example.
INFINIX, Tecno and Itel are owned and operated by the same company but each of these devices take care of the needs of a particular class of people. iTel devices are mostly targeted at the low income earners, while Tecno and Infinix take care of the average and high income earners.
This strategy has enabled these phones have a larger market share if devices in Nigeria. This is the same method all Android OEMs are using all over the world to cover every part of any country they're targeting. However , Apple devices are stuck to the price that Apple has set. iPhones are targeted at high income earners.
Addressed this issue in your first point and my first comment on this tread. And infinix, tecno and itel are IMPORTED by the same company, not owned by the same company


6. Availability Of Repair Centres
Nobody wants to use a phone that can't be fixed when it has a fault. Many Android devices can be fixed by third-party repair centers or personnel quite easily as their parts are readily available. The cost of repair is also relatively affordable. Unlike in iOS, The cost of repairing an Apple product is always high and the parts are always scarce.
I remember when I used an android phone "fly" I had to go all the way to computer village from epe just to flash my phone. It was having booting problems. Where I wan see the parts for that one? Let's be honest new entry and affordable android phones which make up majority of android phones are the hardest to see it's parts. And the iPhone is in fact the easiest to see it's parts across nigeria. Cos its not versatile, just one model and it repeat designs. For example one touch panel would fit, iPhone 6,6s and 7.

Plus do you know to fix the screen of a galaxy note 7 is just as expensive as buying a brand new s7 edge??

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Broken-Note-7-screen-replacement-price-the-same-as-with-the-S7-edge_id84365

I'm done.

I am not saying android is not more popular and does not have advantages over the iPhone. Of course there are but..
Even if you must state advantages of android over the iPhone, DO YOUR RESEARCH!! Don't just start typing...

First of all, before I correct you. this article is trash. Please and please, if you are not sure about something, google it out before you write it. You don't just write from your head. It takes me days to write articles sometimes just So I can be sure of what I'm saying. Do t just try to drive home a point using rubbish facts and your own believes. 'Cos this you wrote is just .....

For all those people saying I was rude and ish.
I'm sorry that I found the op's post offensive, inaccurate and extremely false. And I could only call it trash cos it's actually trash. So sorry for being so blunt and not taking the gentle man approach.

Seriously

Where do I start from now.....time to School some people....

Greatzeus:
Actually, the number one reason will always be the price. Cost of iPhone is no doubt out of range for majority of Africans. If the price of iPhone will by someway be like that of most android devices,many will dumb their Android for iPhone.
But we all know the probability of an iPhone price being on the same scale with Android is probably not probable grin

Any android phone that is just as good as the iPhone is also just as expensive or more expensive than the iPhone. A Google pixel is more expensive than the iPhone. You can afford an android phone because those are cheaper substandard models which apple does not make for the iPhone. So shuuuuuu. Check the pic uploaded below or google it out to comfirm

Phones / In Church, Do You Use A Physical Bible Or A Phone/tablet APP by PhonePlanet(m): 10:15am On Dec 04, 2016
I own both a phone and a physical bible. And I'm the type that trys to reduce what I carry So I can be very mobile.

For me, if not for the awkwardness of stepping inside a church with your hands free, I prefer using a mobile device!

sometimes I even forget my physical bible at church.

Phones / What App Do You Use To Play Music? by PhonePlanet(m): 10:30pm On Dec 03, 2016

so what music app does the job for you?
