Doing business in Nigeria is one of the most challenging things to do. Your brand has to be damn strong to succeed in Nigeria. Thats why I kinda respect brands like Tecno. In spite of all, they are still thriving

They couldn't keep up with changes, thats why transsion keeps evolving. Despite everything, tecno still have a space in the market

I remembered when Android came out first, Tecno made Android very affordable

Splitmind:
They didn't have the same app support as iOS and android so people stopped using them. They were also stuck in the past holding on to the business phone persona and physical keyboard when most business people had moved on to iPhone and Android.
it's just evolution. They failed to follow the trend.

Brand such as TECNO have studied their host country well, making them to understand the people and their market well, making them know what to produce that's suitable for the customers.

And

Despite unstable government policies over the years, they still stand strong.

I av a sony Xperia for sale

Kaybex007:
Sony phones are still in the market and hot. they improvised from Sony Ericsson to Sony Xperia. they are available in the market just like iPhone and other phones. the but in them is they are very expensive, even more expensive than iPhone and worth the price. they are not everyone's phone. I call them phones of the future cuz the feature you see on Sony phones today will be a new feature for most phones in the future.

Just done using Xperia XA2. It was good but the camer is not so bright.

I enjoyed it before mistakenly loosing it inside a bus.

Way back in 2009/2012, a Blackberry device was on everybody's wishlist. Those Blackberry people use our eyes see pepper that year. Any small thing, "ping me!" "What's your BB pin?" People just assumed that you a BB device. Even the notification sound from BBM alone made some people feel like they have made it, Lol. Then from 2012/2013, the brand began to die. I think people moved to Android devices and iPhones. It was even after the whole Blackberry trend ended I got to use one.

There were other popular phone brands, too, that just suddenly went under the radar. What happened to these brands: HTC, Blackberry, LG, Sony, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Alcatel? I think Nokia is recently trying to pick up. Those guys made cool devices back then.

Modified: I know some of these brands still make phones, but I'm talking about market share and dominance.
not all oga, may be to u


blackberry htc n Alcatel haven't fair much d rest are still ok
