I've been using Samsung all my life, the very first Android phone I used was Galaxy S2, then S3,S4,S5 now ,S8.
I don't know what it's like to use any other phone except Samsung.
There was a time I lost my S4 and was tight on budget so I decided to get an infinix(brand new) phone for the time been, I used the phone for just half a day and threw it away.... ran to computer village the next day and got the S5.

I don't think I can use any other phone except Samsung and maybe an iPhone, other phones sounds like trash to my ear after my infinix experience cheesy

I had already know you will be here soon part of the reasons i didn't create a post about Xiaomi phone then
and for your information the phone is redmi 4A
But this should be the lowest of Xiaomi phones, many people bought this for less than 32k, and you are disappointed because the sound output and camera is not like what you see in 70k and above phones! And you are saying Xiaomi phones are overhyped? Now you see am not wrong with my last quote, how can you say Samsung phones are bad because of the experience you have with a Galaxy core?

My people! Can you see we've been wasting our time on a lost cause! embarassed
You handled a Redmi 4A, one of the cheapest, that is if it's still being produced sef because it already has two successors in the Redmi 5A and Redmi 6A.
For your info, the 4A and all the succeeding models are the cheapest models in all of Xiaomi line.
It is now this model you used to describe the whole brand? sad
This your situation is like handling the cheapest of Samsung J series line and using it define the whole of Samsung phone brand lipsrsealed
I nr even see your post before, hehehehe, I tire sef.

Why do you bother yourself arguing with an ignorant fellow?

To start with, the phone isn't expensive. Redmi 4A (2+16GB) with Snapdragon 425 is sold for 33,000 while the closest phone to it in terms of specs (Infinix Hot 6 Pro - Same Processor and Ram + Rom variant) is sold for 48,000 on jumia.
Second point, you made a ridiculous claim as regarding the whole Xiaomi brand when you've only handed one of the lowest entries Xiaomi has ever released. Were you expecting a 250,000 Samsung Note 8 camera in a 33,000 Redmi 4A in the first instance?
that not my point the camera is poor and the speaker is like it has been faulty but is not because the phone is new

You got him wrong. You can't use a low-end phone of a brand to categorize the whole brand. Example. Someone coming from iPhone would say Samsung
j-series is trash. But does it mean other Samsung models are trash? No. Same thing applies to other phone brands.

I for one feel if you have the money for the top of the line flagships, kindly buy them and enjoy. But I don't really subscribe to buying their 2nd hand at very very exorbitant rate which can get you brand new flagships of brands like Xiaomi, OnePlus, Meizu etc.

it's not about the price aspect for me, it's just the brand I'm used to. But to say the truth, I think Samsung is the best Android phones in the world.

Go learn how to polish your sentences well before you quote me.

Also, try to learn how to punctuate your sentences very well.

You should also know how not to be a fool. Especially on social media. It will help you a lot.

Today (Dec 25th), a guy who isn't tech friendly I helped purchase Redmi 5A prime came to my house with friends. I saw him with the phone I bought for him and asked him one question.

Me: "You and this phone still dey?"

The guy: "Ahhhhh! If I get money now, I go buy this phone again and again"

Me: "Ah, na another better model under the brand you suppose talk say you go buy"

The guy: "Na phone wey me don use I fit talk about. This phone, This phone!! Na the best phone wey I don use for my life. That one wey my Infinix dey hook, this one nor dey hook at all. Upon say I don load am wella"

Me: "How you mean? Hook like?" (Just want him to say more because he didn't complain about his previous phone because was so used to his old Infinix phone that hangs alot)

The guy: "Na when I begin use this phone I know say the two phones wey I use before dey hang" (He realized there is a sickness in smartphones called "Lag"

Me: "Abi... To me, na so Xiaomi phones dey be."

The guy: "Ziomi (Xiaomi) root the phone? I think say you root am, Naim make am smooth like this"

Me: "Noooooo, nothing I do inside"

The point in this little chat is this:
He is someone who isn't brand focused, he doesn't even know about his device but he can testify about it.
