the last tyme i checked

tecno has 1000 mAH battrey and uses a verylow proccersor which uses lot of power

while htc samsung and nokia phones uses up to 3000mAH battey and uses high proceessors lyk snapgragon 600 and 800

so how does tecno battrey last more?

texazzpete: What kind of imbecilic article is written about smartphone dominance in Nigeria and does not mention Blackberry?

Like it or not, more Blackberry phones are sold in Nigeria than Samsung & Tecno phones.

Blackberry's popularity is likely to wane when BBM fix their poor batteries, but for a while now Blackberry has been top dog.

vowiski:

Where dis one for come out from? You have seen 4G indeed.. na ur coven u 4 c am?

Elxandre:
You are very ignorant dude.
*the tecno n7 you ridiculed has the same resolution with the samsung galaxy grand duos
*the tecno f7 has a better screen resolution , similar processing power, same 1gb ram, 8gb micro sd, included power bank, both are dual sim , both run jelly bean, the samsung galaxy grand duos and its nothing less than 50k while the tecno is 35k (wtf!).
*and samsung is actually fair with the pricing. A sony phone with similar screen and specs could even be 60k

*and lastly, you keep blabbing about tecno users been broke. But i'm sure those who ride bentleys , rolls royce ,buggati will label you a broke ass if they see you riding a chrysler or a camry. So just shut up and stop acting like you own the world.

I dont even use a tecno.

Tosman12:
obviously u are not informed....the latest fear is that blackberry might be facing a ban in nigeria soon as NCC is seeking endorsement for blackbery to hand over somthing that has to do wif security code to subscribers messages and comm in which its against blackberry ethics or soo.....incase u dont kno bb is curently facing extinction and dats why dey are looking at inc. Bbm into otheer platform aside bb phone..... I am sure som1 will get what am sayin incase i dont put it corectly..
Cos dey call it china phone does not really mean its substandard they just find a better way to tell the whole world there is no big deal in nokia selling there phone cheap as dey can still make profit no mata how its designed....

mr.drizzy:
hmm

kponke denge: All mobile fones shuld be banned in nigeria is corruptin our youths use it to wash blue fim.

Let us go back to postin days so dat our youth will not spoil

Like dis post if u agree

texazzpete:

The Galaxy Grand is not a high end phone by any stretch of the imagination...but still for the extra cash over the likes of the F7 and N7 you get the better Samsung build quality, a slightly faster CPU.

The F7 at 35k is a ripoff, sorry to say. The Dual core processor there was popular in early 2012 and has SINCE been relegated to the sidelines in favor of the Quad core A7 Mediatek 6589 SoC. There are Quad core phones on sale from Lenovo with far superior specs for around $140. So even your F7 is somewhat overpriced.

Hope this helps

Dude there's 4G in Nigeria, what you will argue is if the speed is at par with what is obtainable in other parts of the world. I do get 4G on my device.

Tecno Q1.

320x 240 screen. LMFAO
1Ghz single core CPU. Hehehe
2.5 inches screen. Yuck
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.

Iko5000: Rubbish

vowiski:

The more attempt you try to be reasonable makes you look like a junk..

I have a CCNA AND CCNP certification, I know 4G when I see one..

jnoz23: Do these chinko fones have FCC regulation? No be d same china wey we know? No beef! Just thinking aloud!

Babzilla: SUB STANDARD PHONE IS A SUB STANDARD PHONE
THE ONLY REASON THEY MAKE MONEY IN NAIJA, GHANA AND KENYA
IS THAT PEOPLE THERE ARE CHEAP WHO PREFER CHEAP THINGS
OVER QUALITY. IM SURE YOU WONT CATCH A MAN FROM ONE OF THE
DEVELOPED COUNTRIES DEAD WITH A TECHNO
IN FACT NO SANE GOVERNMENT WILL
ALLOW THE IMPORTATION (OR PRODUCTION)OF THAT JUNK

zeanslim:
now i on y must pple fail
y nt do a little digin bfor u quote me
1 it aint 320 * 240
2. it aint a single core dude
3. it aint a ginger bread
4. find out n stop killin ur sef wit ur over hyped fones (OLODO)

xxyz17:
That's what I'm trying to make the Tecno fans understand. Or are you new to this thread?
They claim that N3 can do all the things a high end smart phone can do. That people buying such expensive phone aren't wise.

texazzpete:

For what it's worth, the specs i quoted were copied from the Nairaland post on the Q1 which already has 26 pages. Not surprising that purveyors of cheap goods do not know what they are buying.

So it's ICS. Big deal. 2.6 inch screen and 320 * 480 resolution is old hat. Single core CPU...ancient GPU...what is this, 2009?

Bottom line is, you folks boast you enjoy the same performance that users of powerful Android phones get. I've showed you otherwise in my previous post. Now, go away!

Elxandre: Know-too is destroying a lot of nigerians. In china the phone products are innumerable. They dont care about foreign models there. And tell me is Nigeria more developed than china that produce and use these devices?

Just that the average african man is enslaved methodically to the white man. The asians have broken free, thats why they have all the whites can boast off. And are even getting the whites scared.

Aside tecno there are a million chinese and asian quailty brands out there. But due to the enslaved mentality of the black man, he will always think an American or european product is unconditionally better than even a higher spec rival asian product (branded chinko by ignorant fellows)

Android authority even reviewed the thl w100 and were shocked by quality and $159 price tag. But bring this product to this side of the world, you will see people tagging it as chinko. smh!

the ignorance in this part of the world is appalling

zeanslim:
see big OLODO above ere....u dnt even no a pin about the phone yet u av d GUDZ to open dat ya dirty mouth....find out den cum and modify dix stuf OLODO

ladeski: im new bro. tell em o. I use an N7 and my friend recently bought a Samsung duos. though the picture and video quality is better, he was amazed how my phone competed...AT A LOWER COST. That doesn't mean my N7 is as good. just means I can compete. you grab?

I have other things to spend money on.,....shelling 100k on a phone isn't part of it.

No way

Of cos N3 cant do all that a high end smart phone can do

texazzpete:

Those specs taken from the 'Tecno Q1 Discussion Thread'
https://www.nairaland.com/1230055/tecno-q1-discussion-thread

So you clowns don't even know the specs of the phones you buy?

I'm sorry you aren't well off and you aren't very bright, but high end phones are 'high-end' for a reason. You buy a cutting edge phone, you get cutting edge performance.
if you primary motivation is to save money, be my guest. Some other folks like very good cameras, excellent screen resolution, HDMI/MHL out, wireless screen mirroring, fast CPU/GPU to run all the latest apps and games, great build quality and GUARANTEED UPDATES. We pay for that incremental value.

Perhaps you can go over to the Autos section too and heckle people that buy SUVs from Inspired Autos for not buying a Volkswagen Beetle than can still carry them from Lagos to Kano

Take an opinion poll, sample space of 1 million random human beings...let them read through your posts and mine. I'll bet every single one picks you as the 'Olodo'

At least even I could spell the word 'guts' when I was in JSS1. What's your excuse?

Ask nicely and i'll send you a free copy of this. Brother, you NEED this!
