Which phone actually means showoff? Cos I don't know any. iPhones are not even cost. It's just that many have a cheap mentality and misplaced priorities. How much is a regular iPhone? Let's say iPhone 8? iPhone 8 could be gotten for ₦70k now. Even iPhone 11 is about ₦150k and the Pro about ₦200k in black market. And many can afford it. So what's the big deal in iPhones when an iPhone 11 pro max still have the camera design of the 14? Or when you can convert your iPhone X to the 14 camera lens? Na you dey reason say only iPhone 14 na iPhone because you allowed yourself be oppressed by people who don't even know you. Still on still, if you can't afford the affordable iPhones, Tecno, Itel, and ,Infinix are still phone brands. Why you dey underrate yourself? Everything no bi oppression. You, you get sense? You get esteem? You dey contended? If I am with a backpack, I put my phone in it while on standby mode. But if I need it for sth, it's on my hand. Without a backpack, it's always in my pocket while walking, driving...but on my hand in public transport. Most times too, it's on my hands. I have a right to choose not to be robbed off sth in my pockets since phones are fond of coming out from your pocket to breath. Pickpockets must lose their jobs too! Me, I never see person wey fit oppress me sha. My okrika jeans is ok for me even if I see your Fendi. 3 Likes |

In Lagos, you can't keep your phones in your pocket or purses unless they are in front of you where you constantly see them Another thing, there's an unconfirmed report that it isn't advisable for a male to have phones on in their pockets because it's close to their reproductive organs and the radiations from the phones could cause damage, we don't know how true this is. 1 Like |

1. Phone radiation cooks the testicles of men. 2. Pick pockets nowadays use jazz, they touch your pocket & your phone disappears. Don't try it here in Kano especially Bata for no reason. 1 Like |

Is not adviceable, -Some times when you are working the sweat and steam that come out from your body can cause real damage to the phone -some one can get access to your pocket and streal the phone without you knowing. (Especially in a busy area) -remember your phone is an radio active device.. |

It's like trademark for Nigerians especially in Lagos. I was at a restaurant the other day and all the tables had phones littered on them. I wondered how people managed to have their phones on the same table with their foods. I'm not talking about one phone, I'm talking about one person having three phones. So imagine four persons in a table each with three phones. Why do many Nigerians even have two to three mobile phones? I see it as burden. 1 Like |
