Bros, this is Nigeria wey Paparazzi is a major influence. Most pple will starve or borrow to buy an Iphone5 just cos de want to impress or show off. In Nigeria here, its just for Prestige in most cases. Take it or leave it. How many Nigerians consider all those specifications when buying a phone? Be sincere. E no plenty bros.
Mooregan, I agree with you that many people buy those high end devices just to show off. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that Techno is not a good device, they are doing just fine. This their new phone Phantom A1 is very cool. What pisses me off is when some crazed Techno fans go on rampage on every thread in the phone section, saying that those buying high end smart phones aren't smart, that Techno can do everything those high end phones can do and even more! Of course thats a very big lie. Personally I'm happy that Techno were able to bring the Android platform to a large chunk of people in Nigeria so they too can enjoy the Android experience.

enobong18: TECNO!
When they first started, I told myself I would never have anything to do with them, I know I'm good at keeping to my promises, but right now, I find myself doing away from all my other phones cause of TECNO.

Note: I didn't say TECNO is the best, I'm saying TECNO is the cheapest, and not just the cheapest, but giving out the best at the cheapest price, hereby taking over the Nigerian smartphone market.

Conclusion: TECNO Is Winning The Smartphone War In Nigeria!
BROS WHETHER THEY LIKE OR NOT TECNO IS THE BEST. ALL THOSE SHOUTING AWOOF THINGS DO USE THIS TECNO PHONE. ABEG NO MIND SOME OF US... TECNO NA BABA.....

Re: Tecno Is Winning The Smartphone War In Nigeria by jerrykd(m): 8:02am On Jun 05, 2013
the chinese ve always had ways of manufacturing cheaper versions of expensive products. E.g a pair of nike will last longer than a chinese made replica.tecno as a brand is really giving other manufacturers sleepless nite in the race for africa's market dominance.comparin tecno to high-end phones,the differences are few but far in between.on paper,you wonder y the difference in price?but in reality,the reason for differ in price boils down to camera quaity,proccessor speed,multitask,ability to withstand heavy use and most importantly durability.
Camera quality of high end phones differ but overall all are better than tecno's.
High end phones run apps smoothly.
Miltitasking:both score same in this department.
Its still too early to differentiate both brands on durability since tecno is still a baby.
Overall,tecno is a good buy considerin fear of phone theft/loss,damage to device and performance.i use both and love them same in regardless of their strenght and weakness.
Re: Tecno Is Winning The Smartphone War In Nigeria by flair19(m): 8:02am On Jun 05, 2013
Anyday anytime, i am a Nokia freak. But i am feelin d huge magic my Tecno N3 is performin. Am on NL cos my N3 made it much possible. I apply for most jobs wit mi cheap N3. So wetin again wey I want?
I tink d problem wit most of us Nigerians is d problem of over familiarity wit a product dat we don't want to try its substitute even it may b better.
E.g, we refer to evry cookin spice as Maggi wen Maggi is only a brand name. We've Royco, etc which may b better wen cookn some dishes. But we're so used to maggi, just like we're used to Nokia.
Folks, Tecno is good & they're improvin by d day. Believ me, they will soon force others to cut down their prices.
Watch out!

Android Gingerbread. You kidding me?


How can you have a great multimedia experience on a small, 2.5 inch screen? What games do you play on such low end hardware? Look at the quality of the screenshot you posted above. Jagged edges, poor visuals.

compare that car racing game you put there with Real Racing 3 on the Galaxy S4.



It's like saying people who drive 2013 Range Rover should be jealous of someone who drives an ancient Golf because it can also drive from place to place.
