indigold2010: Samsung uses some of
the best chips in the mobile industry, the exynos
chip and the snapdragon, what those tecno use?
Some worthless chip with bad processing power

indigold2010: Lol. Those asking money to buy Samsung. Read the concluding part of my post. It reads if u can't afford Samsung then buy tecno. And for the poster using foul words like tiger battery or what did ur head say? Am laughing at ur joke seriously. If u have more foul words use them. And I didn't say u must buy Samsung. Nigerians read clearly before making comments because Internet is cheap. Did some one just say tecno has amoled display? My brother they don't. And as for ota I will check on that. And even if u get an ota update it won't be a major update like a new Android version it may be just a small update to apps and fixes nothing. And I wasn't paid to say all this. Samsung won't pay u to say all this, their device speaks for itself. I wil still say buy tecno if u can't afford Samsung, it still gives u a taste of Android

indigold2010: I just ran into this topic. And if with all my years of working on the Android platform and I don't comment then I have left most Nigerians mislead. The name is techno the other is Samsung. And for those of u even comparing that name to techno to the name Samsung, I guess u have been paid by techno to help promote their cheap hardware. Now let's start with hardware.

Samsung hardware is far too superior for techno, techno have to sell their phones cheap so they don't have to spend too much money on making a hardware to compare with the likes of Apple Nokia Sony or HTC. But that's the category Samsung belongs, the competitive zone. Samsung has to build their hardware to meet the standards of other oem's but techno don't have to cos they believe Nigerians are dummies that will use anything sold for a price that equals a waste product. Samsung uses some of the best chips in the mobile industry, the exynos chip and the snapdragon, what those tecno use? Some worthless chip with bad processing power. Samsung uses some of the best display technology in the super amoled display, what those tecno use? Some screen looking like a phone of the early 2000. And for the battery Samsung phones pack very powerful chipset which requires good energy to process data at a fast pace so the battery has to be at his best. Techno phones don't really need powerful batteries cos they already have a chip of no value and display is like a wrist watch. As for the cameras, Samsung packs some very good cameras that can compete with Apple Sony and other oem. But tecno 5mp equals the 3mp on a Nokia Asha phone, what a shame!.

Now let's look at their software, the only reason why apple(crapple) keeps taking Samsung to court in my own thinking is cos they can't cope with the kind of innovation Samsung brings to software design. Smart stay, smart pause, smart scroll, air gestures, smart commands, multiwindow, pop-up play, spen innovations and many others. My friend tecno phones lacks innovation all they do is pack an unbacked Android os into some cheap hardware.

Now let's talk about updates. When u buy a Samsung device at a high price it is because u are paying for other services as well which includes updates. Tecno doesn't care about updates. If u buy a Tecno device on Android 4.2 that's the end of the life of the Android os.

So my fellow nairalanders am not pushing Tecno of the way totally, if u can't afford a Samsung device then buy a tecno device to get a taste of Android but when u decide to compare Samsung to Tecno that's were u been very ignorant and very biased.

The Nigeria market isn't wanna of Samsung strong hold so Tecno innovation doesn't really bother them as a company.

I conclude by saying buy Tecno if u can't afford Samsung but by Samsung if u can afford it and stop been mislead.

symbian03: OP, you're so on point. I've also had some android newbies compare Tecno with Samsung - No baby, you've probably never used a samsung device. It is also obvious that there are so many Tecno advocates on this thread lol - ain't nothing wrong with/about using a Tecno phone if that is what you can afford but even Tecno won't compare their product to that of samsung.

Peace

My friend, your information is absolutely correct but let me correct the impression that tecno believes that Nigerians are dummies. No! Far from it. It has only employed a pricing strategy in order to stay in a seemingly competitive industry. The strategy adopted is generally referred to as Penetration Strategy. And considering that the product has a short life cycle of btw 6months and 2yrs, they are always looking for opportunity to drive volume and record sales turnover (Don't forget that turnover growth is the best indicator of marginal performance of homogenous product). Tecno's strategy involves looking for alternative materials (howbeit substandard) that can give the same look and feel of the high-end products with minimal risk and hazard. So for Tecno, the materials used in making its current set of gadgets needs to be cheap and affordable, hence the difference in price.

In the nearest future, I suppose tecno will have gained market share and stability that will enable it stay competitive. At that time, it will step-up (I suppose) to higher quality products and then, u will notice it immediately through price hike. At that time, all the current tecno phones will be obsolete. Tecno may ask you to bring your old phones and add cash to purchase a new phone with quality standard rather than fixing its imminent problems. That is how they must have planned to penetrate the market.

Tecno has found the Nigeria market lucrative for the following reasons:
1. The population is explosive.
2. There is tremendous number (my guess is 80%) of Nigerians who are low income earners and they also love to feel good like the rich folks.
3. Nigerians generally love cheap items (the same reason, fake items find their way into the country).
4. Android is gaining market share in Nigeria
