Mr man I asked a simple question and you haven't answered it. You haven't prove beyond reasonable doubt using research. 2. Not all customers knows price skimming so stop displaying your ignorance. 3. You don't even know why tecno uses price skimming on their products 4. You don't why they still sell till date inspite of your buohaha. 5. You don't even understand marketing of products


Since you've refused to stay on topic.

I'll reiterate for you again.

Tecno claims that their products are cheap and affordable . I have demonstrated that they are not.

You have failed to addressed any argument that I've put up. Not a single one. Instead you're busy fishing for strawmans out of thin air.

Don't manufacture semantics here. You're like that busysince93 guy. You never address proposed argument. You either disappear or manufacture strawman arguments.

Tecno claims that their phones are cheap, I've successfully pointed out they're not. Prove otherwise sir or lock up. Open a new thread if you want to peddle that strawman argument of yours.

If you can't, concede the point before we move on to anything else.

Otherwise keep your deflection tactics, non sequitur, circular and strawman arguments to yourself.

You haven't successful point anything since you use the word research and assume that you are dealing with a kid that just graduate yesterday. Research is detail so you have to dissert it to prove beyond reasonable doubt. Since you claim to know research, you have to demonstrate it here. This time around take your time to study journal articles from engineering department on how things are done.

Why are you doing everything to avoid addressing the fact that Transsion are no longer the cheapest phone makers on the Nigerian scene?

Why are you avoiding that argument?

If there are holes in my submission, I enjoin you to through it and expose them.

Transsion claim their phones are cheap, which is not so. Telling lies is equal to propaganda.

Don't avoid the argument. Are their phones the cheapest in the market or not?

Tecno must be looking at the pile and heap of their stacked up camon 15series and be asking themselves "why?"

If you can't empirically come up with facts then he shouldn't castigate tecno. That dude started the drama and worsened it by mentioning research with weak methodology. You don't come on platform to throw tantrums and expect no reactions. He should demonstrate his knowledge of research this time around

Midrange phone.

These are the phones that gives you the full smartphone experience with minimum lag and fuss. Games can be played on medium or even high settings sometimes. User experience is smooth and fluid.

Tecno: Pouvoir 3 plus. This powerhouse selling point is it's 6,000mAh battery. It comes with a budget Helio P22, 4/64GB of storage, 13mp selfie and a 13+8+2 triple rear camera set-up. It sells for 52k.

Infinix: S5 lite. The S5 lite like the base S5 and S4 comes with a Helio P22, a budget chipset. In essence they're all the same phone with different names. It also comes with 3/4GB RAM and 32/64GB ROM. It has a 32mp selfie and a 16+5+2+2mp Quad camera set up at the back. The battery capacity is 4000mAh. The price goes for 43k for the 3GB RAM model and 47k for the 4GB RAM model.

Xiaomi: Redmi Note 8. The RN8 is the first proper midranger on this list and it houses a Snapdragon 665 processor, 3/4GB of RAM, 32/64GB of ROM, a 13mp selfie and quad 48+8+2+2mp camera set up. The battery is 4000mAh. The price is around 64k

Nokia: Nokia 6.2. This is proper budget device running on Snapdragon 636, it has 3/4GB RAM and 32/64/128GB ROM. It has a triple camera set up of 16+8+5mp and a 8mp selfie. The battery is rated at 3,500 and the price is around 75k

Samsung: Galaxy A50. The best phone on this list. It ships with an Exynos 9610, 4/6GB RAM, 64/128GB ROM, 25mp selfie and a triple 25+8+5 rear set-up. The battery is called at 4,000 mAh and the price is 90k.

Umidigi: Umidigi power 3. This is also another battery power house at 6150mAh, it houses a Helio P60 chip, 4/64GB of storage, 16mp selfie and a Quad rear set-up (48+13+5+5mp). It sells for around 80k on Jumia.

Verdict. Tecno and Infinix do not have proper midrange phones. Their midrange offerings are actually budget phones and that they're overpriced for a budget phone but most people will think they're midrange phones and consider them cheap which is not the case. On the other hand the Umidigi, Nokia and Samsung are overpriced. This sets out the Redmi Note 8 as the clear victor with the Nokia 6.2 as the runner up.
umidigi power3 is not yet available on the Jumia express hence the price.

Where did I say I had marketing expertise? Please go through the thread and show me.

On the other hand, I have done my research. If it is faulty, show me the faults.

You have been dancing around without addressing the main issue.

1. It was that no one should mention Tecno
2. Then you switched to we're spoiling Tecno's name.
3. Then you entered Tecno will forever be selling and have the largest market share
4. Then you switched to marketing
5. Now you have entered research

Who knows where you'll dance to next?
Look up what a non sequitur is.

I repeat, Tecno claims to produce the cheapest phones in Nigeria. That claim has been shown to be nothing but propaganda. Disprove it. Simple.

This extent of ignorance is beyond research. You expect a peer-reviewed, full-length paged research article, yeah? You're good!

Bottom line is that Tecno claims to be "cheap and affordable" but in fact, when their cheap and affordable phones are compared with other phones in the "cheap and affordable price range," Transsion/Tecno/Infinix turn out to produce subliminal products when compared to the aforementioned examples the OP gave.

No need to bother yourself, we THE STANDARD ORGANIZATION OF NAIRALAND have decided to take matters into our holy hands. Image below is the number of views that tweet has had, the engagements it has received. Which rules out the point that Tecno hasn't seen it. But they can't deny the evidence swimming in that thread and more are still flooding in.
Which means Nigerians are well aware of what Tecno Camon 15series is all about. Which in simple sentence translates as "RUBBISH".

So let's see how many gullible Nigerians Tecno will scoop this time, shall we?

Tecno is still cheap and affordable. They produce varieties of phones for different stratas. This particular one is not targeted at low income earners . If op can not give empirically claim with then he should stop derailing tecno thread rather he should remain in his lane.

When you compare a Transission device to the standard of other companies, you are left with torment and agony as to why an average Nigerian has to face such cruelty from an ill oriented company parading themselves as a smartphone franchise when in reality they are bleeding Nigerians dry of thier hard earned money.

Tecno is doing phones worth 35k. Nokia is doing the same thing. Samsung is doing the same thing. Xiaomi is doing the same thing. What's the fuss about? What the OP is saying is that, when you compare a Tecno's 35k phone to that of Samsung, Xiaomi and Nokia, Specifications-wise, Tecno is at the bottom of the competition! That's the point!

If you can't see that, then I'm sorry there's no "research" that can remove your sentiments..It's that simple..
