I'm less concerned about the fact the spec of a phone is up there.
But how $250 equals N115,800.
Nigeria!
95,450 Op made a mistake there

The useless Infinix I'm using would trip off on its own, it will lag incessantly, and the dogshit cannot multitask.
Minimize one app and open another, and that first app closes.
Which one will I talk and leave the other one out biko angry angry angry
Try installing NBA 2k19 and get error like "There was an error parsing your file"
Lmao, after just one year or even less, your battery lifespan deteriorates so badly that you begin to wonder if the phone is truly 4,000mAh or 1,200mAh angry angry angry
Useless phone. I wouldn't wish for my worst enemy to use Transsion, tufia.
God no go shame us o.

Shitfnix, Crapno, and ScamTel will release a new phone every 2 weeks and tech-illiterates will jump to buy because maybe they saw big battery or audio big ram, lmao, they don't know.
Carlcare is your best friend sha, the Lord is your muscle.


I rather use the money I would have used to buy Shitfinix and dash to a beggar and receive his prayers of appreciation than buy junk.


Has it gotten to this, bossman?
Shitfinix and CrapNo are not even on the level of Ouiktel, let me assume you said this in error or you're suffering from hangover angry angry angry

Still doesn't stop tecno from breaking down after a year.. They are a lot of good midrange around that price range..can you compare this to Huawei y9prime or xiaomi note 9pro?
Are tecno known for breaking down?
Yes they are.
Are there better phones for that price?
Fucking yes there are.. Personally I won't even buy the camon 16.
Considering the paper specs here, is this value for money?
Yes it is bro
No need for sentiments.
Beside the HELIO g90t is a very good contender for the snapdragon 720g on the note 9 pro..
So forget sentiments bro. They pulled off this one.

The specs are decent but the price leaves alot to be desired.

I'm not a marketer but if you ask me, Redmi note 8 pro or better still note 9s will do you a whole lot of good with better specs of course. Abi who

The HELIO g90t is a very good contender for the snapdragon 720g bro..

Majority of Nigerians don't know anything about mobile technology and modern features. Even Transsion staffs don't use this craps. Even China they don't use Transsion products only in Africa they dump all these craps because Nigerians are lost to premium designs not quality or core features

I swear the thing dey pain me ehn.... Imagine the Crap Tecno I'm using bought last year didn't come with basic 4G LTE!! In 2019!! For a phone of 32Gb/3Gb rom/ram. The most painful of all phone couldn't come with USB On-The-Go feature. Something I direly needed at the time.

I nearly cried...and promise myself my next phone would never be shitty Transsion. angry

Even very stingy Nokia definitely release 4G LTE for their smallest phone product the Nokia 2.0/1/2 series.

The stupid Tecno don't realize even 4G LTE connectivity has different grade and capacity.
There's Category 4, 5,6,12,16.etc Depending on the Cat you use will determine you speed levels uplink and downlink(upload & Download).

Tech illiterate sad

Boss he's not being illiterate. He's well informed.

It's True, you'll never see a Samsung at that price range that beats it. Only thing Samsung might get going is better screen being OLED or AMOLED. And maybe a slightly better camera, which is very hard.

The Infinix Note 7 beats the Samsung mid-range A51 effortlessly. Check the comparison videos and app launch speeds online.

NB: this is coming from a Transsion hater even tho I use one. grin

I've browsed about the specs. .. but the phone was bought for me, not me personally buying it myself. Cos there's no way in hell I'll buy that crap for over 40k even at last year.


Trust me I'm very Tech-savvy. This is not from someone who just read basic specs and starts ranting. Other phones from same category will definitely come with 4G at that price range be it Nokia, Xiaomi, Huawei, Samsung.

I can forgive no Otg but zero 4G LTE in 2019 for that price it's outrageous..... It's not as if you're paying 20-35k budget for it.

I'm just waiting for the day Transsion gets usurped by Xiaomi or other brands in Nigeria they should learn their lesson. The only reason you're seeing Transsion phones getting G-series (G-70/G-90T, G-35)chip from Mediatek is because of the competition from Xiaomi, Huawei and others.

Before buying a phone go through the specs so as to know if it meets your requirements am sure by the time you do that u wnt have to complain.

exactly man. personally i will rather get the samsung a31 because of its name SAMSUNG. but that does not mean this phone is rubbish. e sure me say this phone will beat other samsung phones that are in this price range. e go even beat this a31 sef. i was surprised when people started criticizing the battery

You funny... This one go destroy A51 sef.. grin grin

A51 wey Small Infinix Note 7 dey beat like mumu. grin grin

I hate Transsion like mad but funny thing I still dey use one of their product... I eventually will move out to Xiaomi by year's end if Corona and Dollar/naira price plus Buhari agree. grin

We should commend Tecno here. They tried...
Why I'm angry with them is they waited this long for Xiaomi and Others to start threatening their market share and gaining dedicated loyalists(Xiaomi) before they start giving us our due. Painful thing Infinix had to first them take the initiative with G-70 and G-90T.

Competition they say is always good for the consumers. grin

Oga it wasn't bought by me. grin
For that price range it's only Tecno that does that shi_t. It isn't about specs but value for money.

I check phone specs more than anything before buying a phone... I do reviews and comparisons videos weeks or months before buying a new Smartphone. So I know what I'm saying. wink

I was just unfortunate cos my former smartphone got stolen and this was quickly bought for me to use in the meantime.

4500mah well optimized will last a day at least average usage to heavy usage with the 33watts charger it's more power on the go, the only problem with the phone is probably may not get Android 11 above which to me is bad but every other thing about the phone is expected to be at best performance
