I’m using IPhone 8plus. I bought it with over 400k (New) the same year it was out. I bought an IPhone XS Max for my wife with 200k (London use) this year. Her phone is higher than mine but mine is costlier due to time difference but with same features.

What am I saying in essence, even if IPhone produce IPhone 1000, I’m not buying again. These people are just collecting huge money from people yearly and producing the same thing using different names.


My guy eye done clear.
i use iphone 1,2,3,4,5 and i stop(4 years and counting...).
e get y(not money issue but objectivity(investor) to real life issues).
i will buy after 5 years.

Wotoporiously cool speaking

For me, I think the question you should rather ask me is, if I see a phone I like would I buy it no matter the amount? That's if I'm boyant enough...

The answer for the above is "yes" cuz anything I like or Iove I always go for it unless it's out of my reach or there's a barrier coming from my own ends.

I tell you.
Moses Simon eat meat twice in a month, he don't take alcohol, he dont go to party, he don't spend unnecessarily. Ngolo Kante still drives a mini cooper...

Sometimes we think every thinks the same as we do, but is not true. There is this lady that donates money for building of hostel in my school. She do invite my school Provost and some top professors for dinner in US. Our Provost as of this year testified to us that as at the time he was speaking, The woman still uses Button phone and laptop. That they asked her and she said she do make calls with the phone and use the laptop for other stuffs so she really don't see a need for phone..

I was shocked
All these if you get money you go buy am , na cus the person no get the money ... The statement can be annoying at times... If one lives with some of this wealthy people ones I know spends like they are poor ... You won't like some of them cuz they dont spend anyhow ... Inshort some have met sabi manage money die... I no fit argue sef...
As am talking to you now ehn... A customer of mine wants to spend extra 220k plus his iPhone 12pro max to get 13pro max... I was just like wetin you dey find sef... Na this kind thing to me be that poverty mentality... His body no gree calm down... I was like nothing dey this technology like that na... The screen Samsung had on Samsung s6 is qhd still qhd on s22 ... This guys need to keep selling you know... Those indians uses old phones wella...
I have seen many people here using phones of 600k and not earning constantly 400k monthly... Please is this not poverty mentality... People go carry 700k phone for hand then later broke to the level of begging for sub or food ... Is this not poverty mentality...

No be rich matter,some people are very objective in life approaches.
I can buy an iPhone 20 even before they launch it maybe in 5 years to come or whatever,but why should I?
What can it do that my A32 can't?
Why should I pay so much for it when I get same from a 120k phone?
Objectivity levels varies in people,that's just my take.

@ d bolded. Nairalanders and it's plethora of braggarts. Was the bolded necessary? You could have just passed your point without bragging about what you can't afford.

I remember the time new phones were sold below 100k when a thousand dollars was equivalent to 200k Nigerian currency. Apple and Samsung phones are not expensive as our dead currency made it look. The problem is naira has no significant value in the forex.

What I'm talking about is not too far. Before 2015 when power was handed over to a failure, Buhari who destroyed the economy with Emifiele the chief looter boy.

This is really my my case now. My current phone is bad and am planning on getting a new phone. The thing now is that I made budget of a phone between 80 - 90 but don't know which one to get.
My ideal phone was techno pouvoir 4 pro, but the phone seems to be out of the market.
Please which phone with good battery capacity cab I get at such price?

Very sad, and it is mostly in Nigeria we have this mentality well and a part of Ghana. Due to lack of work and half baked celebrities we have, we have tight our ego and value to things rather than ourselves. Till today I don't know I naturally dislike iPhones. I like their casing and designs that's all but anything else is not welcome to me. I saw one guy with a phone he bought around 98k here, and to be honest I think he is not earning up to 40k.... my amount for buying phone as far as i am now is 50k and am not thinking of adding.... I don't have P with people that spend big on phones if their aim is to use it and earn something legally for themselves.

I use Samsung Galaxy A12 and Iphone Xsmas. Both bought new in 2022. How much is that? Thats how much i can spend on a phone. Meanwhile, my papa just spent over 250k on Tecno camon19 pro 2 weeks ago. Scarce to get in Ibadan actually but he got it. Plus is iphone 13 pro. How much did my dad spend on his phone.
My younger brother has a xaomi note 10 and iphone 8. How much did he spend?

What you use them for determine how much you can spend on a phone. Its individual choice and mission for buying. None of us bought it for paparazzi but business
you have said it all.everybody get wetin he fit spend large money for..some people na clothes fit finish their funds,some na women..some na gadgets..some na food.All na choice.i have one cousin that usually updates his iPhone to the latest that time..but now he don stop that shit.
