According to data released by Apple herself, shipment has fallen a little but profit grew due to high price charged for the newest phone

profit grew isn’t decling .. that’s business , don’t sell quantity sell quality.. they made same profits they normally make

fashrola:


How many Nigerian buys a brand new iPhone? Basically what you see are imported used iPhones sold in Nigeria

i buy ... straight out the carton .. can never get a used phone and can never stop using apple until Android perfects it’s O.S

fowlyansh181:
because Tecno phones production is strictly just for Africa , while phones like apple and samsung is Global.. it’s just like producing a song for just your street and booming there, then you come competing with a musician that produces songs for the whole world and booming , then you compete over who has more sales in your street with the musician ...

If Tecno does a mass global phone production and record only sales from Africa, they’d go bankrupt and the African market won’t save it

Techno is not in a rush, they are taking things step by step...hope you know they are giving iPhone and Samsung a good run in the middle east too?

no they are not . IPHONE isn’t even aware of their existence

amanikondo:
NO. Apple is a premium products and they are not chasing everyone - Not for paupers. Tecnos are for struggling folks.
In the US. 0.00000000000001 of the people here will use Tecno. I have never seen one before and will not use if it is given as a souvenir.

Apple is over price

dingbang:
the rich people constitute just 14percent of the world population, and that said, apple won't penetrate the market because of their high prices. The trick is, make your products for all cadres and watch your business skyrocket.

Yeah

daroz:
Lol.
I am yet to see Tecno, Infinix or Itel in the whole of Germany, USA, Canada or any too countries I have visited. Those low grade Chinese phones were only designed for shitty third class countries , without which pple won’t be able to afford phones in a place like Africa.

It’s good shall . At all at all nai bad.

Tecno, infinix or itel knew their target hence it is working for them

orbgoblin:
if people in Africa knew how much of a security risk such phones are they wouldn't even dare near them.

Tell apple to make their phone affordable to all classes not just the rich

Is any of the countries you mentioned in Africa or Mid east?

You have travelled all around the world yet comprehension skill is still shaky.

not with that top notch hardware/performance made for the best experience.. funny thing, Africa isn’t a market targeted by big organizations.. the profits from there is nothing really, tech wise ..

mystery22:
Only mediocre dominates in Africa

Africans Always backward

Phone choices in Africa is mainly driven by budget considerations for obvious economic reasons. These kind of statistics indicate the depth of economies.

I think we are evolving, so calling us crappy is like dispising the days of the humble beginnings.

We shall grow.

Tecno, itel and infinix phones ar made by 1 and same company

I'm not even an apple fan. only reason I use their device is for simplicity. no cluttered Ui but I still prefer android generally.

asuustrike1:

There is nearly zero overlap between Apple customers (premium, high end) and Tecno customers.

Yet another ridiculous article from the OP.

I've long known Naija bloggers get incentives to write flattering articles or reviews about the likes of Tecno.

raker300:
African market is trash!!

They couldn’t even save Nokia even after the huge sales in Africa

Baba take away all sentiments and deal with real data there.

blackjack21:


More like there is a missing 'comma'.

Should be like this-

As Apple Declines, Tecno, Itel And Infinix Dominates Africa And Middle East.


Right?

Yes, more like that. Thanks for putting it better than I said it.

Team Nokia .. Still the best and the hit......Surprisingly,what I felt could affect the screen eventually did nothing absolutely.. Always sees itel and cohorts as use and troway...
Save yourself the stress and get yourself one!!!
Just 100k +few thousand added.. Shikina !!

NO! Nokia couldn't save themselves... The future is bright

Truth is, you can't use 'china phone' in China (if you know).
Transsion is holding on to areas it knows don't give a damn about what saner climes do. No African nation has ever sat to look into the security implications of the proliferating smartphones from China. Check out the ordeals of ZTE and more recently Huawei (we could expand to APPLE, MICROSOFT and AMAZON).

Nigerians are not that aware of data gathering so this isn't a factor for them. All companies obtain as much data as possible and people don't care in Nigeria.

It is known that American NSA uses Facebook to gather data yet Nigerians use Facebook with no qualms. Same story with WhatsApp. Yet no talk no complaint.

My gionee m7 power na king

Tecno to the rescue, nobody wants to buy an overpriced iPhone.

As usual, you have spoken well from your asssholeee

Apple....premium ke..make I hear word jare..is na Samsung that is freemium..guys like u even if they put the Apple logo on a toothpick..u will still buy it for an overpriced amount..Lol.. the Apple is declining and their sales are wearing down..go check the tech news..their hype is dying slowly...calling overpriced piece of shit premium

mystery22:

but Samsung is not mediocre and still tops the African market na

sacx:
Before you start comparison, what is their market objective? iPhones are not designed to be afforded by the poor. Since majority of the African population are poor, you can't expect sales to gain traction here

baba their overall sales is declining globally..does it mean the world is becoming poor like Africa or Nigeria

see sense...well done there

until android perfect it's os...Lol.. ..u got me there..guy android os is already perfect ..and it's got more features than ur almighty iPhone.. yeah I said it..go Google it..the features are basic though and not that a big deal..the only tin is that Apple has a well optimized os in essence to ram usage than android.and apples processor are lit....for now sha

fowlyansh181:
no they are not . IPHONE isn’t even aware of their existence

baba they are giving samsung and iPhone serious headaches in Africa and in the middle East.. go to Asia and Huawei ..Xiaomi..OPPO.. gionee and others are giving them headaches too..one tin u should know is that different continent present different challenge to all tech companies and yes Apple knows that chinese smartphones that are tearing their market share..it would be stupidity for any business not to recongnise their competitors in any levels..button line is dat apple aint bothered cos their phones ain't targeted at a particular market like these tecno and infinix...but rather they aim for the global market..

fowlyansh181:

lol..there is a proverb that says na wetin u look troway face ur mate go take pass u..I know African is not a very big tech market now..but it's growing very fast..and these chinese company have seen it and are thriving and investing..b4 u know it..Apple will be out of the picture totally ..jst as they are slowly declining in asia .
