Straight to the point

When a product is launched, blogs buzz around it with reviews that are as enticing as the pix. You will be surprised to see them hype a new phone with the same vigor that they used in the previous version that turned out to be a flop.

I was bitten once but imagine my surprised when a blogger who supposedly did a review was also complaining weeks later.

This is the true story: It is no longer news that most of the phone dealers do give out phones to some bloggers for review but the Nigeria situation is that once they get this phone for free, they rarely put up an objective review of the product. The bloggers will just reel out exaggerated and confusing figures on the spec as well as attempting to compare it with top range phones from Samsung or Apple in order to book a slot in the next product launch giveaway.

If you really want to know how good a phone is before you buy them, read reviews on the products discussion forum like most here on nairaland. Never ever see a spec from a blog and proceed to buy the phone, you may be disappointed.

You mean 'Why you should NOT follow blog reviews'. Your topic contradicts the content. Anyways, I totally get your point and agree with it.
