Why You Should Stop Using Tecno And Infinix Devices by mikeycharles(m): 2:05pm On Jan 05, 2019 |
If you noticed in my title I didn't include Itel devices because they are nothing but power banks with LCD screens, anyways I created a thread on why you should not buy Xiaomi devices so read up on that later. I could remember when I first purchashed my first smartphone, it was a Samsung Galaxy Pocket, it was small about 4 inches and came pre-installed with Gingerbread (Android 2.3). I was so frigging excited I had a phone that could literally do "everything", I couldn't wait to show it to my friends but when I did they just ignored me like my new phone was trash since most guys were using tecno devices with 5 inch screens and one gigabytes of ram. But I was happy with my device cause it could play most games their phones could play and it managed to pull through in handling apps which shocked both me and my "friends", my point here is despite being a smaller device and slightly out dated software version it still stood a chance with a Tecno device. I could never understand the frenzy with Tecno and Infinix devices, there was no hype, nothing really significant about them since I've handled some of them but have not really gotten a taste of other Chinese brands but that all changed when my friend's Tecno Y6 got sent to the repair store over seven consecutive times and she had to settle for a OnePlus One since her boyfriend worked with Huawei and had managed to afford the device then. That device was crazy, big, efficient and with one of the best cameras I've ever seen. She never took that one for repair and used it for almost three years before upgrading to higher version, this experience led to me exploring several e-commerce sites and I discovered Aliexpress but that story is for another time. A similar experience occurred with another friend but this one was her fault she had put her phone in her purse which had ice cream in it, an Infinix device; she had to spend so much repairing it that she gave up on it. They were so many complaints here and there, from charging port to flashing and reflashing. Tecno sells "affordable" phones that would lead to you having a cardiac arrest, I still don't see the worth in their devices when there are so many better choices out there. Stop praising mediocrity just cause you are ignorant, their phones don't last and back to itel devices; A friend of mine got an Itel S11 or some shiit like that, I swear the camera was impressive like really dope at first but it didn't take up to a month and this "camera phone" started degrading like literally the camera kept getting worse from day to day not to mention the lag he had to suffer. In conclusion, I would rather get the iPhone clone (Xiaomi) which is popular here than opt for Tecno and their worthless craps. 6 Likes |

This one is just taking anyhow, what matters is that it's an android device and can do exactly what you can do on other android devices. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Not a fan of tecno and the likes but at the end of the day you have no personal experience with any,you kept on saying my friend this, my friend that . The infinix phone I used back in the days never failed me till I took to a quack repairer who literally damaged the whole thing so I'd say the only problem I have with them (infinix) is how ridiculously overpriced their devices are compared to other manufacturers making devices with similar specs Cheers bro. 12 Likes |

Someone just said I have no experience with Tecno and Infinix devices, I have to laugh I used an Infinix Surf spice before even using the hot series, a tecno tablet, h3, y3, y6, and even an itel prime tablet. I can't believe I even have to defend myself but I said what I said period! |

Tecno and Infinix provide cheaper alternatives for users who'ld like a new feature at a cheaper rate. At least, Infinix is a little more durable. Comparing it to Samsung is just very unfair nah. Samsung is light years ahead in both quality and brand name. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Did I just read the words "cheap" and "quality" in the same sentence with Tecno. Protein0 I see you |

Infinix is dope, tecno is dope and I've used both... Tecno Q1, Infinix hot... Now then their phones were affordable, but currently its now fu*cking expensive... And the most annoying part they've refused to improve... Imagine selling a quad core phone for 40k in 2019... That to me is outright madness, not to talk of their love for 1gb Ram 5 Likes |

The truth is that itel, infinix,Tecno, xiomi or whatever are all substandard phones Although am using an infinix note 5 but that doesn't mean i should not say the truth It just a pity and unfortunate that is what most people can afford here in Africa 11 Likes |

Stop putting out false information. I've used 2 Infinix devices and they were both awesome. Firstly, I got a Note 4 Pro. I used the phone comfortably for a full year without any issues. I sold it for a very good price, added money and got the new Note 5 Stylus, which I'm presently rocking. Infinix all the way mehn. This my Note 5 Stylus is a world class phone. I don't even need a Samsung Note 9. 2 Likes |

As my uncle said, marketing strategies come in diverse ways. Thumbs up. I have been ruggedly using an infinix phone for three years and still hasn't given me problems. A former friend of mine uses Tecno and that phone is solid. 2 Likes |

mikeycharles: So you're saying I'm summary that people should not buy Tecno and infinix cos u feel it is not good enough. To be honest nobody actually needed this opinion and you saying you rather buy xiaomi than buy Tecno after saying we shouldn't buy xiaomi. Before you start saying nonsense I have used a xiaomi phone and I'm currently using the Samsung s8 and I can tell you that Tecno and infinix are actually trying.. they might be cheating us with all these mediatek crap and poor lcd displays but it fits the average consumer. So this ur opinion is totally worthless until you can make your own 8 Likes 1 Share |

PhenomenalMorgan: Samsung Note 9 is definitely more expensive than my Infinix Note 5 Stylus. I never said my Note 5 Stylus is better than a Note 9, what I'm saying is that I don't need a Note 9. My Note 5 Stylus comes with an inbuilt Xpen which lasts for hours without a charge. My phone has 64GB internal storage, takes awesome pics, 16MP, durable battery life & an overall impressive user experience. I got it for 82k and I'm enjoying every cent I paid for it. Hehe |

mikeycharles:I've never used a Tecno phone before but I've used one from infinix and it served me really well. Their phones just happens to be overpriced these days. How you use your device matters. Huawei, Oneplus and Samsung don't know how to produce affordable phones. 3 Likes |
