Mi 11 nah QHD display oo boss and the fact that's it's an all out flagship means they'll go all out in its display, the Vivo and F3 are the same grade of phone and I find it hard to believe that an older panel would be better than a newer amoled panel from the same company.
Na you dey use two of them Shaa so maybe you're seeing something that I'm not

I know what am saying. Even the super amoled of galaxy A52 still beat the F3.. Ita just the kind of display used. Honestly i wasnt impressed. I go use am for sometime go for Mi 11

I feel like you're looking at this with a biased eye cause I've watched several reviews where they say the Redmi note 10 pro display is either on par or better than the A52 so me I'm confused like this cause the F3 display should be better than that of Note 10 pro

The current price is about $354, but I ended up paying 360 dollars.
I messaged the seller to help me split the payment into 4 parts so I can pay in bits. I paid with 3 different GT BANK cards and one go money virtual card. ($90 in 4 places)
Zenith and UBA cards failed for reasons I don't understand

What Shipping method did you use? I heard free shipping takes forever.

I've never ordered from Aliexpress before, and just want to do so now, really glad the whole splitting thing can work cus I have been having issues with the $100 mark, I've downloaded all manner of apps, and all have super high rates.

Please I'd like to know what the split payment looked like and if your product has been processed already? and what was the final cost of the product in Naira?

It depends on the kind of shipping. Untrackable Free shipping tend to be slow while trackable free shipping are generally faster. What determines the speed is mostly the shipping method and agency used.

You'll message the seller and request he splits the payment for you. If the seller offers that for buyers, he'll send a repay link to you, asking you to pay with it as many times as possible (depending on the price of what you want to purchase).
In my case, for a $360 purchase, I paid $90 with the repay link 3 times, then proceeded to order the package itself. That one failed obviously, since the price is about $360. I then messaged the seller to reduce the price to $90, which he did, and I was able to complete the order.

Forget about UBA. I also tried it as well and AliExpress asked me to appeal. I cancelled the thing and borrowed another gtbank card to complete the payment.

Try it first.
When I used UBA, it asked me to appeal.
I switched to Zenith, it still asked me to appeal. Then I switched to GT and it worked

Select that repay link and order it. Set the quantity to 90 and pay.
Do that twice and then set another one to 87 quantities and pay again.
Then the seller will reduce the price of the product to $90 so you can compete the order

Quick question please, when making payments, is it the amount that reflects on the Aliexpress page (CBN Exchange Rate] that I'd be charged or would my bank charge me based on their own exchange rate.
