No be everything person dey bring come online. You can use commone sense sometimes to make right choices.
And if he lacks the commone sense, is it wrong for him to find help in making the decision here?

Buy Sagem my x7. I used it in 2005 and I can confirm that it's good and has strong battery Life.
Nokia 3310 should do the magic. It's strong, durable will everlasting battery. His screen doesn't break if it falls down.

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for a new phone and I'd love some recommendations. Here are my must-haves:

- Dual SIM with 5G network capability (or at least 4G)
- Great camera performance in low light
- Minimum 5000mAh battery life
- At least 6GB RAM (8GB or more would be awesome)
- Minimum 128GB ROM
- Durable screen that won't break easily
- Processor that's fast and responsive although I'm not a gamer)
- Price: not more than ₦500k (preferably around ₦350k)
- New, original devices only (I'm not a fan of IPhone or UK used phones, please do not suggest them). I'm currently using a Samsung phone, but open to other reliable brands.

Can anyone suggest some great options that fit these requirements?

Well, you can check out Google Pixel phone ..maybe 9 or 8 depending on ur budget.


And let me know if you want to sell off the Samsung you're currently using maybe we can strike a deal.

the infinix note 60 pro checks everything you pointed out there, the price is #499,998, if you do not have that much, the note 60 edge too is cool, for a lesser price with a nice curved screeen.
Can't believe Infinix will sell a phone for almost 500k shocked

I have never bought phone with my money since I left university 2011. Every of my birthday each year, I receive 4 to 5 latest phones. I don't know how much phone cost in the market now.
Congratulations! But they gave you back part of the money you gave them through buying phones to you on your yearly birthday. You Dee wine!!
Re: Please Help Me Choose The Right Phone by happney65: 6:26pm On Mar 06
Since.you use Samsung that's good.

Get a Samsung A26. 128GB. Goes for 400K. Good quality with no issues

Then you are good to go
Re: Please Help Me Choose The Right Phone by samegold(m): 6:29pm On Mar 06
There is nothing wrong with a uk used phone, with your budget 500k will only get you brand new transsion phones like infinix, Tecno and they mostly don't support eSim. Your budget will buy Samsung s22 ultra 256gb, 12gb ram UK used and I'll tell you it's worth it

Redmi note 14 pro
Re: Please Help Me Choose The Right Phone by Mihaug(m): 6:37pm On Mar 06
Tecno spark 40 pro plus is a good option, also Redmi note 15 pro plus if you want higher

Buy the Redmi 15 5G. You won't regret it. It's sleek, beautiful, has about 7000mah. Has a 144hz refresh rate and fast for everyday use.
What's the price?
