As From Today, I Say Bye Bye To Tecno And Infinix Phones by StarCaptain001: 4:39am On Mar 19, 2022
Yes o. Today I say BYE BYE to techno, infinix and itel phones

I used to be a die hard itel and infinix fanboy until my phone (p37 pro) got spoilt. To be honest I was already tired of itel and hanging

I looked for advice on the matter and read up on it (thanks so much atheistandproud) and then took my small money to market (30k)

So I got there.... I passed where they are selling itel, my old self was just begging me to repair my old phone but I was like no... I'm tired of slow and hanging devices!

I got myself a coolpad P02, a 2016 device for measly 20k.

The specs

Snapdragon 420 (octa core)
4gigs of ram
32 gigs of ROM
1080p screen
Android 6.1.1

Buying this phone was a leap of faith, and I'm happy to say that I'm free from transsion bondage

This phone runs as smoothly as water flows, it plays codm and pubg at 30fps!
These are games some latest itel and techno phones struggle to play!

Minimizes and manages my ram like a solid device, and manages the 3000mah battery better than my itel!

Zero drop on performance, it only heats up when I play games for like an hour plus!

All my next phones must be snapdragon. Techno and infinix phones cab kiss my black ass!

True tho. Nigerians are sleeping on some very good but obscure brands like coolpad (original coolpad not aba made), meizu, elephone and others

They offer real solid specs for small prices. But they prefer buying overpriced and underpowered transsion phones

The infinix phone I'm also using now will be the last transsion product I'll be using by God's grace. I'm also tired of transsion phones too...but buying a 2016 phone. I don't think that's a better idea though. Some apps may not work on it due to Operating system and software specification.

How time flies.

I was an android fanboy for many years until i became born again by the gospels of IOS.

Manage to buy, at the very least, either an Iphone SE (first SE and not iphone 5) or iphone 6s (not iphone 6), upgrade to current OS and have relative peace of mind.

If you want a bigger screen, go for the 6s plus (at the minimum) but 7 plus is still a good recommendation.

Android OS on cheap phones is not optimal at all. Android is resource hungry and requires a lot of RAM for basics. Besides, is the issue of security.

Ever wondered why those loan shark companies dont have ios apps? iOS uses the sandbox concept which prevents data leak from one app to the other. Android allows leaks. Which is why you can install app A on your android phone and the same app is logging app b and c.

Summary, get an iPhone

You had an itel of 1/2gb ram and u are complaining of hanging
Where you expecting an itel phone of 1gb or 2gb ram to play PUBG smoothly?
Then you got a 4gb ram device with snapdragon chipset
Isn't the 4gb ram device supposed to do better?
If u want a smooth transsion device,buy a device of 4gb ram and above with a decent chipset
Ask people what who have problem with transsion devices what phone they are using and you'll find out than most times it's a device with 1 or 2gb ram with a weak Helio p22 processor
Different ram specifications for different purposes
You can't own a 1gb ram or 2gb ram device and expect it to perform wonders in this modern times

What about battery life? I love Iphones but for heavy users like me, the battery life can be very frustrating.

you are right.

The older phones like the ones i mentioned have a relatively smaller battery than their android counterparts.

The newer iphones have bigger batteries.

It however comes down to OS efficiency. Despite their smaller batteries, they last longer than androids of the same battery capacity.

The practical solution is to possibly get a small power bank for the random evening juice up before you get home.

one sweet thing with iphone batteries is that they charge fast and usually dont require a full overnight charging.

No be lie. All na crowd mentality. I'm using oukitel any one I tell simply underates the device by its name alone. Even my next phone is gonna be oukitel. Cuz their products are very rugged and durable plus the spec are amazing for its price.

I got mine 4gb /64gb with rom 4 years ago. This one comes with 10000mah so it's a battery giant. When people are seeking power bank due to drained battery, i dont bother cuz of long battery life. Make dem dey buy infinix and tecno. Phones that offer little to non rom customisation on xda

Lol,, like I said it only gets how when I'm gaming on it

It stays cool when I'm on social media or browsing normally

And if it gets hot, the aluminum back and frame sucks away the excess heat and keeps it comfortable enough to hold.

Buy correct coolpad, not those ones with tecno and infinix logo
