Abiodunspectre: Any smart phone that doesn't receive software updates or security updates is not secure. You're just wasting your money. Even Google themselves find bugs on a daily basis in the OS. September 2019 bug gives access to hackers on your phone. It was fixed in Oct 2019 security update. Did your phone receive it? No. You're on your own. 1 Like |

My phone’s shelf life is till when I can’t use it again or it gets stolen. I still have a Nokia 5800 from December 2008. It has served me well and I still operate it at least twice weekly. |

Have been using my Microsoft Lumia for 5 cracy years now. If not say Dem dey shut down dis December. Na him I go dey use dey go but I no get choice now. But I prefer to g for a durable phone dat would last me another 4 or 5 years than go for cheap ones. Xaiomi or Samsung be my choice. Like I said durability is my key watch word here. |

IgbosNIGHTMARE: My problem with some of these unknown phones, if they are faulty, you can hardly get their parts easily from your local phone repair plaza in your city, especially if you are not living in the big cities like Lagos. But if na infinix & Tecno phones, you get their accessories everywhere. |
Re: Smartphone Shelf Life – What Is The Average Lifespan Of A Smartphone? by theoneJabulani(m): 5:31pm On Nov 22, 2019 |
Nowenuse:This is a retarded method of thinking, if the phones are handled with care, they will rarely develop fault. Besides parts can be easily ordered from AliExpress. |

The Op never mentioned any phone at all in this analysis, that a Tecno user commend Tecno product is that a problem, what I am waiting is to hear a xiaomi user to tell me he or she is using a 2 year old phone, most of them change phones like crazy, Let me ask u if phone shelf life is 2-3 years, why den do they produce more than 7 series in the space of one year, they for allow each phone to reach 2-3 years before producing another one na .... Everything is money and 70% of people changing phones is because of Changephonobia we all are phone freaks.. My boss is using Camon 11, he no get time for processor or. Update or ROM as far as he can snap with it and do normal android stuff.. My other Boss is using Samsun A50, the only thing I know about that phone is Whatsapp, he make calls with Nokia touch, so his expensive Samsung is just for Whatsapp and snapping..the reason is he just like Samsung. But remember the two individual are still achieving the same thing using different products carefully. My Samsung boss don't even do monthly security update intact he always off data to save Mb All the company are just using us to make money. Der is no much different between Samsung m20 and A30 No much different between redmi note 7 and note 8 if not design and 4 cameras, IPhone 10 is a Greate phone so will they produce iPhone 11 now they are planning iPhone 12... All of them are the same using us to make money, most features in these phones we won't use them in the next 5 years still we change it, so I guess we change phone just because we want and have d money, its sickness that will be difficult to cure as far as Nigeria youths are concern.... And finally most people buying cheap Tecno for der cheap price to enjoy android experience not because of update and processor bla bla Am using Note 5 infinix what can ur do that mine won't do pls tell me (don't mind my English) 3 Likes |

theoneJabulani: Ordered meaning it will take time to search for.. Then u need internet and time for payment U need to time for it to land ur country. Den time to reach ur place before getting ENGR to repair for u. And u are comparing it to, I just move to st Michaels road aba get the parts repair sharp sharp pay cash and go back home the same day.... Abegi.... No be everyone get time, everything get advantages and disadvantages |
Re: Smartphone Shelf Life – What Is The Average Lifespan Of A Smartphone? by theoneJabulani(m): 8:22pm On Nov 22, 2019 |
Androidking:everything has advantages and disadvantages, true. But when making a decision, make sure the advantages outweighs the disadvantages. The only disadvantages of these "unknown" phone is the lack of replacement parts and smart people are catching up to that and have seen a business opportunity there. If your umidigi or ulefone screen breaks, hurry to repairpalng at Ikeja or workingperfect1 or experttouchtech and it will be fixed for you. You can easily fix other faults too. Xiaomi came to Nigeria this year, and other brands will follow, when they do, no one will tell you transsion is ripping us off. 1 Like |

IgbosNIGHTMARE: Do u know how many of my friends using Tecno for 3 years too... So what is ur point, what will umigidi do that other transition phones won't do, |
Re: Smartphone Shelf Life – What Is The Average Lifespan Of A Smartphone? by Androidking: 11:59pm On Nov 22, 2019 |
theoneJabulani: And u forget that time is precious... Smart people are catching up,? ? ? , , ![]() ![]() ![]() go and create better software for us, no body send all those things all these people forming smart people are doing it just here on Nairaland, non of them get YouTube channel on xiaomi or even blog promoting Xiaomi na only nairaland here attacking Tecno and Infinix Using Tecno phone doesn't make u less a smart person my brother. In terms of d disadvantages it is enough reason to tell someone not to buy xiaomi phone, I own TLC smartphone sold it to a friend sweet phone, she drowned the phone by mistake up til now she couldn't see the part in the market, I have used enough brands like THL, and others that I don't even remember der names, phones parts is huge excuse to have Tecno phones, I never xiaomi, I only don't like the Nairaland users, the blame Tecno marketers just to boast Redmi and its annoying |
Re: Smartphone Shelf Life – What Is The Average Lifespan Of A Smartphone? by theoneJabulani(m): 12:21am On Nov 23, 2019 |
Androidking:This is just a simple discussion, nobody is forming brainiac, where in my comment did I say tecno users are not smart? What I am trying to say is, people have seen the lack of replacement parts as a means to make money, lots of people are going for unknown phone brands, therefore the demand is increasing for replacement parts. 2 years ago it would have been hard to find new screen, batteries, charging ports for Xiaomi and the likes in the open Nigerian market. But the case is different today, not that you will find the parts at every corner but still there is improvement. And things will get better. If your beloved Tecno don't up their game they will be blown away. Can you compare the Umidigi A3PRO with Tecno spark 3, or Umidigi Power with Tecno camon 12 or either umidigi F1 or redmi note 7 with phantom 9? |
Re: Smartphone Shelf Life – What Is The Average Lifespan Of A Smartphone? by IgbosNIGHTMARE: 9:41am On Nov 23, 2019 |
Androidking:The point is that, tecno is a ripoff. Those other brands are cheap |
