Why Do Most Phone Sellers Don't Know What They Are Selling ? by silento(m): 11:19pm On May 12, 2020
I am a website developer backend and front end
Because of my work I only go for phone with reputable processor , good ram memory management , network bands supported most important

Camera and and battery life is not my problem but I do consider battery life

Screen must be wider or equal to 5inches



I was a full blooded tecno fans during the days of m3 and m5

After this two phones I tried htc and Sony then LG then Samsung

For over 4years I have been using lenovo phone but last year I bought direct used huawei for 15k after my lenovo fell and broke the screen my plan was to use the huawei for few weeks then repair my lenovo but I noticed that this phone was more stable and valuable than the yeye price it was sold for

This phone never hang , 4g for almost all the network in nigeria , finger print and good battery life I have to bench my lenovo


This year I decided to get new and modern phone to follow others show off my phone since everybody is saying that i should drop my huawei tag l22
It is old phone
So I made small visit to phone villa in my town

So this seller present me tecno camon 15 immediately my friend who was with me was like this phone na die na correct and the phone seller joined him start dropping lies after lies

So I ask the man how many 4g bands does the phone support and he said all the bands

I was surprised so I asked my friend for his phone I enter online and compared the phone to my old huawei Cox I don't have sub on my phone

I can't stop laughing inside my heart

So a flagship device tecno launched in 2020
Can not compete with phone made in 2015 in times of good processor , ram memory management , even good os and network bands


I just told my friend let check another place this man don't know a shit about phone he only have money to buy goods and sell ,

I later didn't buy new phone again

I will keep managing my huawei if covid wahala reduce I will make order for lenovo on aliexpress

Almost few shop we visited all they know is camera , battery life , and big screen with finger print or face lock

I even asked one what processor dey power this infinix I love the shape he was like android 7
With 4gb ram

Most sellers should go do proper training to maintain their customer no be every customer be olodo

Right on that.
I've come across very few sellers that know the in and out of the device they're selling, those who'd take offense when you don't buy their recommendations and those that will increase the price of what you really want to buy if they can't force their Tecno/infinix phones on you

Recently I was at slot, can you imagine what one of those slay queen's attending to customers told me when I asked her what chipset a particular phone uses she said the name of the chipset is octa core.

What's your budget?
Re: Why Do Most Phone Sellers Don't Know What They Are Selling ? by sunshineV(f): 5:24pm On May 13, 2020
2 days ago I took a trip to slot with my aunt, she needed a new phone so I dropped by to help


I met one fine girl with grey eye contact, she kept telling me about how great the camon 15 is and I finally asked her the processor the phone is running on only for this fine girl to say "6GB/128GB ROM"

I shock

some people buy iPhone cos it is seen as a sort of status symbol, most of these people don't know jack about half the features of the their phones.

i would'nt use the word stereotype,


in essence it all bores down to the fact that majority of Nigerians are what we call TECH-ILLITERATES

You can see the reason why Tecno and Infiniw keep having a feild day with them.

Most of them are just selling for selling sake.
I once asked one if the Samsung s10 she was selling is exynos or snapdragon she told me its dual sim.
I immediately stopped our conversation.

they don't even USE ram may just be his own way of telling you that they are not as ram hungry as Android. Iphone 11 pro max 4gb, Android flagships 12gb.

exactly, I wanted to make him see that, buh he was too bent on trying to prove me wrong about iPhones, told him iOS Is optimised well enough not to need huge rams doesn't mean iPhones don't need rams to work , buh mbanu since people hardly complain/mention iPhone RAMs automatically meant they don't need one .

worst he called an iPhone dealer to confirm if iPhone use RAMs ,that one said the 32GB,64GB,128GB spec they usually mention is what is meant by the RAM, kai wetin Musa no go see for gate sad
