I don't have a problem with tecno/infinix using MTK chipset but what I have a problem is with their pricing. Way too overpriced. How can you be quoting close to 35k for a phone with 1gb ram and a mtk6580m chipset in 2018. Ridiculous. 3 Likes |

TimiAgbola: Dude u just came here and started promoting xioami and whoever doesn't agree with u then u quickly tag them as infinix staff. What u wrote is a load of rubbish. Yes trassion products don't match xiomi products pound for pound but u are clearly forgetting one thing here. Xiaomi don't have offices in Nigeria, no customer care, no staff, they pay ZERO tax, so it is easy for u to order for their products online and get it delivered to u, of course it would be cheaper with no tax paid. And before u call me an infinix staff... I don't use any trassion product but I give credit to them for making smartphones affordable to Nigerians. Where was ur xiaomi a few years ago when smartphone aquisition was a luxury for an average Nigerian? But tecno saw the market, they invested in it and now they are reaping their reward and u are here shouting xiaomi. What economical value has xiaomi added to Nigeria? At least tecno and infinix pay tax, they empoy Nigerians, they make promos, they sponsor events... What has ur xiaomi done ? I understand tecno and infinix can do better with their pricing and quality of their products, but it is very wrong the way u put it, talking as if xiaomi are the Messiah. Let xiaomi launch their phones in Nigeria , pay tax and see whether they will still sell those phones for the same price u buy them when u shop from China. I'm not saying tecno and infinix products are Superior to xiaomi, hell no. Xiaomi are a far bigger company.. but it's not a phone u can go to the store and buy. When I break ur display or need to change ur charging port u still will need to order for the parts. So they both have their pros and cons. 2 Likes 1 Share |

@greenhulk this same product is sold for approximately $140 dollars in india(9000 rupees i.e ₦51k) . This is my major challenge with them. Launch lower in some other countries and rip Nigerians off. Not on at all. 2 Likes |

I am not promoting Xiaomi.....or contracting the fact Transsion targeted Africa Market but urging for a balance in better quality and pricing.I once used Infinix Zero 3 swiching Redmi note 5 looking at the features and comparing infinix or tecno definitely a kick to Nigeria fans and customers extended.I have used Tecno C9 with embedded Iris scanner which was a good one but a failure in design. greenhulk: |

fibonacci2526: This is where u people get it wrong. U are comparing prices directly with USD which is not done like that. Pricing differs in different countries based on tax, economy and some other factors. I will give u an example. Iphone X retails for $1,000 in the US. By ur logic it should be sold for around 700 Pounds in the UK going by direct exchange rate, but that is not the case.. it is sold for 1,000 Pounds in the Uk and around 1,170 Euros in some European countries. So because a product is sold for $140 in India doesn't mean it will sell for exact exchange rate in Nigeria.. there are many things that determine the price than meets the eyes. Unless u want to ship it directly from overseas. 1 Like |

greenhulk: For example the Redmi 5 is sold at the same rate in India for exactly the yuan exchange rate, what do you have to say about that? It's still a rip off by infinx whichever way you want to look at it. |
Re: Stop Buying Infinix,tecno,itel Phones....save Your Money For Better Brands.... by Nobody: 5:41pm On Mar 25, 2018 |
fibonacci2526: I won't say it's a rip off or not. But India is not Nigeria, the laws in Nigeria are different to India, tax is different, etc. Will u also say apple are ripping them off in Europe? Since they are selling a $1,000 phone for 1,000 pounds. And by ur logic using direct exchange rate, iphone x of $1,000 should be sold for 360,000 here in Nigeria. Why then is it sold for over 400,000 naira? I challenge xiaomi to open their office in Nigeria pay the necessary tax, provide after sale services and let's see if they will sell their phones for the exact Yuan price. If not for anything at least provide competition for Trassion so they can review their price. |

I have known of this transition company a long time ago, since then I have been shifting and avoiding buying there stuff, even people do comes to me for enlightenment on which phones to buy I always refer them to Gionee which I think is better their products. There are good Chinese manufacturers that I knew that even better than these Infinix, Tecno and Itel but not as good as SD Qualcomm phones. I am currently using Redmi Note 4 which is far better than any high end of their products, the speed is great, multitasking is wow, the 4100mAh is like 7kmAh because the optimisation is great, fingerprints is 0.1 but is like 0.0s because it's too fast, also the customisation of the MIUI 9.5 is great... Also the Camera is bomb both the front and back �. 6 Likes |

You have a point some chinese mobile are good....I have used Infinix and tecno phones but it has no match with my Redm note 5....Comparing the price tags and features im enjoying.Gionee is far better than infinix and tecno brands ...looking at the new S3 with snapdragon 430 the chipset is an old one and heats up alot bringing infinix to the limelight of giving fans outdated socs olahero: 1 Like |

Sometimes, greenhulk take sides without understanding what people meant. The talk isn't about job created by Tecno or Infinix. Also, it is not about their customer service being present in the country. Outside carlcare, how many Xperia, HTC or LG customer care delivers? We are talking about what the device is worth. Not the economic importance to the country. Beside it is putting out money from people's wallet to theirs. My occupation is phone service. I see heap of neatly used Tecno, Infinix and itel just dead for no reason. And this is becoming too rampant. Eg, Tecno W3 rules in terms of Sudden Instant Dead syndrome. 2 Likes |

I am beginning to blame myself for choosing infinix note 4 over redmi note 4. The infinix note series, have issues of battery charging, sometimes it takes around 12hrs to charge full, and if you are lucky or u just got it new around 6 hrs. Where do I get such electricity supply from in a country like Nigeria 2 Likes |

gogeekish: I'm not taking sides as I don't even use Tecno or Infinix, though I have someone that uses Infinix hot 4 pro for close to 2 yrs now and phone has served really well.. apart from changed charging port (which is normally the problem with Infinix phones). Multitasking is surpisingly good, battery life too. U can see from the Infinix hot S3 thread how I bashed infinix when their agents try to deceive people with snapdragon 430. Infinix and Tecno need to improve the quality of their products especially now that lots of cheap badass phones are coming from China. However, it looked the the Op opened this thread just to promote Xiaomi because he kept mentioning them. U cannot pay the same price buying a phone online from overseas and buying directly from a shop in Nigeria. |
