you tried to ROOT your phone,it is not because you were trying to download.

as a pureview stan i understand where you are coming from but you see nokia is a bit out of a lot of people's price range for what they would spend on a phone. making this a solid buy for them.

waow. this is very detailed, the lumia sounds like something i would totally dig and it sounds affordable. thanks a lot. the android devices you mentioned didnt do nothing to tingle my spine. should i decide on a droid i would rather settle for a tecno, but this lumia feels like it could be my spec. thanks a lot.
Craven:
Hello ShaiMalika

The following devices cost a little over N30,000. But you might like them.

LG Nexus 4 E960 - It has a True HD IPS Plus capacitive touchscreen, which is very clear. The screen size is 4.7 inches which is just a little under 5.0 inches. It comes with Corning Gorilla Glass 2 for protection against scratches and cracks. There is also the fact that this is a Google Nexus device. With Nexus phones you get a pure Android experience. This translates to mean that you get updates and bug fixes months earlier than any other Android device. The LG Nexus 4 can be upgraded to Android OS v5.1 (Lollipop, a recent upgrade). It has an 8MP primary camera and a 1.3MP secondary camera. RAM is at 2GB, which is very good for heavy apps. The 2100mAh non-removable battery is fair if you can live with a power pack. The only downside is this phone does not come with an expandable storage. You get either 8GB or 16GB of internal memory. There is no memory card slot. The LG Nexus 4 costs a around N35,000.

Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime - This is a 5.0 inch screen with a very poor display. The TFT capacitive touchscreen takes a toll on your battery power. It doesn't come with screen protection, so you're liable to have scratches and cracks. You have the same 8MP secondary camera as the LG Nexus 4, but unlike the LG Nexus 4, you have a 5MP front camera which is perfect for taking selfies. The Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime comes with Android KitKat. But at 1GB this phone comes with a small RAM. If you aren't a serious app user, you'll be fine. You also have an expandable storage (memory card slot) and a 2600 mAh battery. The price tag is N35,000.

HTC Desire 616 - A 5.0 inch screen with a fairly okay display. The same 8MP camera as the LG Nexus 4 and the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime. A 2MP front facing camera. RAM is 1GB, which is poor if you are a heavy app user. Internal storage is also poor at 4GB, but it is expandable to 32GB through the use of a memory card. Battery is 2000mAh. The HTC Desire 616 comes with Android OS v4.2.2 (Jelly Bean, an outdated version, which is very old) and costs N34,000

Sony Xperia E4 - This phone costs N31,000. And for it's price, it has a good display. You have a scratch-resistant glass. A 5.0 inch screen. It comes with a 1GB RAM, which is manageable, and an 8GB internal memory that can be expanded to 32GB with the use of a memory card. It has a fairly good 5MP camera at the back and a 2MP camera in front. Lastly, it runs on Android KitKat and has a 2300mAh non-removable battery. This means you cannot get to the battery, the back of the phone is sealed shut. But it's not a problem. If you ever intend to change your phone battery in the future, you can always take it to an after-sales shop as they have all the equipments to take out a non-removable battery.

If I were to pick amongst these devices, I'd go for the Nexus. It seems like the perfect device in this price range and offers good features. A higher RAM, a Lollipop upgrade, if you are willing to download it - otherwise you're stuck with Jelly Bean. It also has a very clear display. The only thing I hate about it is the poor storage that cannot be expanded. But other than that, it's a brilliant phone. My second choice would be Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime. Third choice would be Sony Xperia E4. I don't like HTC Desire 616 much because it comes with an old version of Android that cannot be upgraded.

If you can save up some more, you can get the Samsung Galaxy E5. With it's Super AMOLED display, the screen is very vibrant. You also have Corning Gorilla 4, which beats the LG Nexus 4's Gorilla Glass 2. It is a slim device with an 8MP primary camera and a 5MP secondary camera. Battery is non-removable and 2400mAh. RAM is 1.5GB, which is not so bad. Internal storage is 16GB and can be expanded to 64GB. The Samsung Galaxy E5 is a very good device if you can afford it.


And if you can tolerate another operating system other than Android, try the Lumia 540. 5.0 inch screen. 8MP camera behind and 5MP camera in front for very clear selfies (I've used it). You also have a very good battery and a clear display. I should also add that the Lumia 540 would be amongst the first set of Lumia phones to receive the Windows 10 Mobile update. It costs a little under N30,000. And when you purchase it at Slot, you get a free power bank.

Lol well, tight is indeed relative. True, looking a t money in dollars is goving me a headache. Lol, so my budget is to not exceed 30k in naira and i was hoping to squeeze in a screen guard a nd a pouch in that money.
markphilips607:
Errrrmmmmmm.... Well! for me, I will go with Tecno. Its affordability and durability makes it a Yes for me anyday anytime.

Tight budget? I think that's relative, A tight budget for you might be a chicken change for me *Just saying grin*. Let me assume you mean a phone between the price range of $100 - $150, then I will go for a Boom J7, Y6 or an Inifinix Zero

The wait on the 2015 thread has become boring. Last year by this time, people had found their "prayer warrior-ing skills", the comics had come out too. Even though i wasnt participating in sa aid thread, it was fun watching the banter. Now everything is just bleh. Why so tense people? Loosen up. Whatever the outcome it wont change you.
