Few days ago, I created a poll asking you guys about the price range of the phone you use, That happened here

First of all, Thank you to everyone that voted

As at the time of this post...the poll had 932 votes by likes (shares where not included)

8. Above N250,000 had the lowest with 22 votes
Approximately 2% of nairalanders fall here. Their phones cost above N250k are mostly customised phones, gold or silver coated. Except the phone naturally cost high and was bought internationally and imported. Phones like Iphone 6s plus could be higher than N250k if it was bought before it arrived nigeria internationally and imported or generally, premium phones that are scarce and hard to come by.

7. N150,000 - N250,000 had 54 votes
Approximately 6% of nairalanders fall here. Their phones are usually very HIGH end phones and latest main flagships of world established companies like apple iphone 6s/6s plus, Samsung Galaxy s6 edge/note 5, Blackberry Priv and so on... This phones shows premium and class of it user, and it users are always respected (wealth wise).

6. N100,000 - N150,000 had 68 votes
And closely following number 7 above, approximately 7% on nairalanders fall in here at the price range of N100,000 - N150,000. The phones that can be bought at this price are also high end phones but not really premium in looks and feel OR premium in looks and feel and not so high end specification, also flagship phones from no so mighty companies or past flagships from top companies. These includes phones like samsung galaxy A8, Iphone 5s, Huawei p8, Blackberry passport, Microsoft lumia 930 and so on...

5. Lower that N15,000 had 81 votes
9% of nairaland users approximately use a phone lower than N15,000! Phones that fall here are either extremely low end phones or really old flagship sold as refurbished or non-smart phones. For now, I fall into this category using blackberry Bold 9900 I bought 10k. That's what I can afford . Here you would find phones like Microsoft lumia 430, nokia 105, blackberry Bold 9900(refurbished) etc.

Approximately 11% of nairaland users use phones that cost between 60k and 100k. These set of phones are known as medium class phones. There are not too good nor not too bad. They excel at some parts and try(not exactly fail) at others also a few ex-flagships fall here and also flagships from Fast rising companies. Phones like this are Tecno Phantom 5, HTC M8, samsung galaxy alpha, Blackberry Classic e.t.c

Csami:
Because say you never use glo

I use glo

profinmasscom:
They can't afford to shut down their business in Nigeria. Because they make more money in Nigeria than any other country, which include their dubious act of deducting subscriber's airtime. This should be looked into after settling with NCC.

Was you credit deducted?
How much?
What date and time?
Did you call the customer care to complain and they said no credit was taken?

If you can answer any of these questions Please stop taking unnecessary shots at the company.

daamazing:
sorry to say but NCc mumu o.is it that they cannot hire competent lawyers to win d case or wat.
BTW who notices how mtn's mb drain like water

MTN has the best data count amongst all gsm networks

Its simple...
Because there is no need for it.
Why can't you tell me why you would wish for dual sd card.

Dude seriously? No screen shots and photo guide plus confirmation?

greenhulk:
I for dash u my galaxy s6 but as u said u can't use a phone without Fm radio then no point.

abeg dash me o

Bluffly:
Do you have Nigerian phone at least. The Op brought out the evolution of a country developing at a fast pace and you are saying that they are substandard.

Will you be happy if the name of your country is used synonymously to substandard.

Grow up

read my post again with understanding

i did not say all phones from china are substandard i said i call all substandard phone "china phone" and therefore do not call phones such as tecno "china phone"

Copy copy cat

E no work o

adewasco2k:
Calling any substandard phone a "china phone" is lame to me though.

Thanks for the correction...

Its not lame. It has just become a noun over the years, it happens with every other aspect of live

bee444:
Does N250k phone exist? Havent seen one yet

https://www./apple-iphone-6s-plus-128gb-gold-2611767.html


Plus, customised phones

ayusco85:

From 60k

Iykolysis:
Thrash

You see me for your dream?

Rayd502:
120k to 130k...Note 4.

Vote above by liking 100k - 150k

Nice write up.

But I think your definition of "china phone" is quite Different from mine. I see china phone as substandard! So once a phone meets standards, its no longer "china phone" even if its made in china by Chinese.

Therefore, I call substandard phones made in other part of the world, even nigeria, "china phone"

So "china phone" to me is a noun
Yours is an Adjective relating to phones that come from china, whereas not all phones that come from china are substandard. so i cant and don't relate to phones such as infinix as "china phone"

BTW there was no point in/of the whole article (my own personal feeling)

Nice! Tell them!


But if this topic enter fp b4 mine, then me and the mods go fight.

Oya my ogas
Lalasticlala, honsule, seun, come and vote too..
Excepting you

It is not really as it sounds. The tech giants had other reasons to closing the BBM channel but one of the reasons stands out.

As we know, Nigerians make up a major population of BBM users and BBM channel subscribers, so it should not be a surprise that Nigerians have the most populations of subscribers to any BBM channel, which is closely followed by Indonesia.

According to Technobuffalo, Nigerians who subscribe to channels are not looking for the content the channel has to offer but rather, meet and exchange BBM pin with another nigerian in the comment sections...therefore nigerians has turned BBM channels comments sections to "love, date and hookup site"

This was one of the reason the site announced today via its BBM channel that It would be shutting down its BBM channel.
