Why You Shouldn't Patronise SecondHand Devices

1. Theft: A rainy night in delta state, theives gained entrance into this guy's house - took his money & phones! Once they unlock the phones, what next? Sell it. You might be using a stolen phone and you don't know, you might be arrested and you won't know.

Nltaliban:
This shows how clueless itel is


See how their mmarketer and official account dey fight for up

He got it wrong! saying "there is no itel phone or tablet with 6000mAh battery at the moment", but the Itel 1703 iNote Prime 3 which bears their logo (which also has 6000mAh battery capacity) and which is all over the internet, even on Konga & Jumia, is FAKE or what?


pls look it up on google!

itelMobileNG:
No Original itel phone or tablet have such battery capacity

and you claim to be a correspondent!

Old, but;

The selling point of Itel 1703 iNote Prime III may be its massive 6,000mAh battery capacity , and that's not all. As this "phablet" (meaning a device that can be used as a tablet and a normal smartphone) sports a big 7-inch display. The device also is powered by Quad-core Mediatek processor.

Instead of blowing money on so called popular phone brands in Nigeria where all you get is poor service and complains, it's advisable to buy a foreign based smartphone which will be shipped in within 10 - 30days and it'll cost below $100 (35000 naira).
These smartphones accompanies great specs, long lasting battery and amazing features. let's see them

The storage and camera features of Tecno DroiPad 7D made me weak! Just 1GB RAM which I vehemently term as an "abomination in 2017". This smartphone also sports 5MP back camera & 2MP in the front.

Full specs: http://www.techpaded.com.ng/2017/06/tecno-droipad-7d-specifications.html

I rather go for Alcatel A3 10 tablet with 10-inch screen size (1280 x 800 IPS display), 5MP rear camera and 2MP selfie Camera , 2GB RAM, 16GB internal memory.

1.1 GHz Quad core MediaTek MT8735B SoC processor, Android 7.0 Nougat, supports 4G LTE , you'll also enjoy 4600mAh battery capacity, which is strong enough to keep you going for days!
