Nokia, Umidigi Or Xiaomi, Which Offers devices with the best Value For Money??? by PhenomenalMorgan(op): 1:22am On Mar 24, 2019
I was blown away by the specs of Xaiomi Mi 9 for such price...
Likewise Nokia X7 uses Snapdragon 710, has OIS, 4k videoing, FullHD+ for just 99k(Jumia)
Pocophone F1 is another killer device from Xaiomi...
Not to mention my dearly beloved Nokia X5, sleek performance at such price...
For Umidigi, well I don't know much... So let Mizik, Lexusgs430 and other Umiambassadors do what they do best...
Nokia 9 pureview has a beastly camera and yet launches at 225k in 9ja...
These 3 phone makers offer great value for money...
Which does it better huh
Please state specs as you state your opinion.
Thanks...

Heard of the F1 not the F1 play... The F1 is a steal...
That's the only phone I think has wireless charging at that price...
I feel Nokia has the best build quality of the bunch next to Xiaomi, Uni lags behind in Asthetics and build quality...

Xiaomi of course offers the best in terms of price to performance ratio and SOFTWARE support. You are sure to get latest miui versions on your phone for at least 4yrs which no OEM can offer. Devices launched 3yrs ago have all been upgraded to MIUI 10 which is very impressive. So if I were in a market for good hardware+ software support, my first choice would always be Xiaomi.

If this is true then Xiaomi has really stepped up their Game...
Good to see that they are now moving into the levels of Huawei, Samsung and Apple...
But I like Nokia''s Android one software...
Currently enjoying Android pie... All thanks to their stock android preference!!!

In as much as I love android one, am wary of Nokia's bootloader which can't be unlocked. You wanna experience the world of custom ROMs? Just buy any Redmi series devices launched in India too, those techy heads over there are so damn good.

Am not talking about security patches o,will umidigi continue to roll out updates to your device in the next 2yrs with new features? I highly doubt it. I repeat no OEM maybe only Apple that provides long software support for their devices than Xiaomi.

U can port custom ROM to Xiaomi phone without rooting. Just unlook d bootloader, flash TWRP recovery and finally flash ur chosen custom ROM /Gapps with d TWRP. Rooting is optional with Xiaomi

Hot, which hot?

The heat on some devices was due to the fast charge, excessive pump of power. Which is already fixed by an OTA..........

Honestly, dts d mistake I made with 7.1, fell in love with the aesthetics and never knew of the restriction till I got it. True it's devoid of bloatware and Android P is really smart but there is a feeling dt comes with knowing u have root powers. Nokia will definitely lose Android geeks cos of their conservative nature.
