There is a phone making waves presently though not a high end phone but its currently the hit among the smart phones.

The name of the phone is Techno phantom A+ and in my own opinion is the smart phone of the year.

Abu Dhabi Group: The OP got this from gsmarena.com most def , I saw the same topic on their Facebook page .

Most Nigerians like following the bandwagon , because S4 has been trending down here , then everybody is screaming S4444 !

When you go to the international scene , you will see that iPhone 5s is the in thing around town . Then the Note 3 comes right behind it , this votes were cast by real users of the phones ; not some wannabes that only dream of owning one in their state of psychological convulsion .

Get real homies , technically and evolution-wise , the apple iPhone 5s knocks out the rest ; off the edge of precipice . # WINNERTAKESEARTH

And they said that Tecno F7 is the same as S4. Why didn't a single soul mention it here? Or are the tecnocrats still on transit?

Yeye dey smell.

What's the big deal about fingerprint scanner on iphone5s. The other day i saw a chinko phone that the owner wanted me to charge for him. As i touched the screen, i saw a section of the phone that had a fingerprint sensor, right there on the screen. The dude told me that he unlocks the phone with his thumb.

Secondly, iphones are stuck with iTunes for uploading content. They are known to be closed to other phones when it comes to sending and receiving files. NFC is absent too, even in iphone5s.

How about the screen size? A mere 4" where u have to squint your eyes to read web pages is a no no for me. And not forgetting the "scratchable" body. Some iphones are scratched out of the box. And they said aluminium is premium. I would rather use a plastic phone that is hard to scratch than a heavy metal that comes with a lot of scratches right out of the box.

Did i forget to mention the non removable battery and lack of expandable memory?


If you want to get an iphone, what should be your deciding factor is the OS, (which is one of the best) not the device. An ipad is better IMHO. And once you get an iGadget, u hardly change to another OS especially when u remember that you paid a certain sum for some applications that would have otherwise been gotten free from the Google Playstore.

Sure, but u don't need to root Android to enjoy all these features. Jailbreak ur iphone and lose ur warranty.

Besides, jailbreaking will not add more screen estate / storage to ur phone, or make ur battery to be removable. And u could damage the phone if not done right.

I used a Galaxy S2 for more than two years and I think it's an excellent phone.

When it was time to upgrade l did a lot of research and opted for the LG G2 which I bought two weeks ago. It's a great phone and I like it. The only shock I received was to discover that it did not have the video call feature. I don't know what they were thinking at LG.
Re: Which is your best smartphone in 2013? by dspecialist(m): 7:16am On Dec 06, 2013
Im a die hard fan of iphone... got all the versions they produced. The simplicity and the finish is of top quality. But innovation and functionalities rules presently. Expected alot from the ipjone 5s i got disappointed and switched to note 3..
Honestly, note 3 rules...... Note 3 all the way.

Best phone: Samsung S4
Best phablet : Samsung Galaxy Note3. It's super goood. The air gesture functions are simply outrageously goood. The eyes recognition scrolling function is wicked. Don't use your finger or pen to scroll up and down a page. Let your eyes do the scrolling for you! It's amazing! I'm rocking it now.
