Bawss1: its easy to curse out chinese and indians for turning nigeria into a dumping ground for rubbish products, but in the end, they are being shrewd businessmen it is this mentality on this thread that led to the 'nigerian spec' of kia and hyundai cars that shipped in nigeria without airbags - the mad desire of nigerians for perceived status symbols even if half of the features have to be removed to make the item affordable. gragra nigerians unable to afford high end smart phones, but willing to shell out for dangerous imitations so that they can stand shoulder to shoulder with owners of high end phones and boast that their phones are the same 1 Like |

michaelbiz: What does importing cheap China phones have to do with anything? What 'whole show' has Tecno stolen when the entire annual sales of Tecno in Nigeria can be covered by Xiaomi in 2 weeks in China? You think the Nigerian market is what is making Samsung have sleepless nights ? All these clueless people that know nothing. So Tecno is the 'highest quality ' now abi? Technology guru that is happy with the possibility of his data being stolen. Dey dia dey masquerade as 'tech guru' as if we don't have access to your post history. Just thank God that Tecno has made affordable phones for you. You're still yet to explain how you think Samsung bought over the independent Lookout Security, and why they're going after relatively small fry like Tecno instead of massive competition like Xiaomi, Meizu and Huawei. 3 Likes |

Yahoo News http://news.yahoo.com/samsung-posts-48-8-drop-q3-net-profit-235147004.html "Samsung is struggling in the Chinese market and it may take a while until the situation improves," said Lee Min-Hee, an analyst at Seoul-based IM Investment and Securities. China's Xiaomi dethroned Samsung as the top smartphone seller in China, with its share rising to 14 percent in the second quarter followed by Samsung's 12 percent, according to estimates by the market research firm Canalys.

This company from China is still small compared to Samsung, but it is growing fast, and not to mention, Xiaomi is the largest smartphone maker in China. BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-29516806 Samsung's mobile division, its biggest business, has been struggling to maintain its dominance against rivals[b] such as Apple and Chinese smartphone-makers Xiaomi and Lenovo.[/b] Samsung still has around 25% of the market, down from 33% a year ago, but a trio of Chinese firms Lenovo, Huawei and Xiaomi have rapidly grabbed a big slice.

texazzpete: In your quest to show you are VERY INTELLIGENT, you have shown EXACTLY how DUMB!!! you are. You hurriedly took this thread to a debate, but left the nitty-gritty of what we are faced with. Let me fry your sorry ass with local news (I won't even go far). Tecno Rules Nigerian Smartphone Market - Beats Samsung, Blackberry Posted on July 16, 2014. Tecno has taken over the smartphone market in Nigeria, displacing once-very popular brands like Blackberry, Samsung and Nokia. Hallmark investigations have revealed. Read full story here later http://www.hallmarknews.com/tecno-rules-nigerian-smartphone-market/ 1. Analysis of the AFRICAN MARKET is NOT captured on a global scale because they are referred to as "emerging markets". That means, nothing you posted here shows what is going on in Africa...except it is clearly spelt out as EMERGING MARKETS! 2. Let me first laugh at your stupidity You don't know jack! about malware business. Samsung is actually a conglomerate comprised of 80 companies, including an ad agency, credit card, securities and other financial institutions, giving the Galaxy maker “a wide range of expertise and global connections at hand” to conduct corporate warfare, should it wish. Read a story here about Samsung playing this security malware card on Apple after losing their $1 billion patent lawsuit to Apple in 2012. Educate yourself baby boy! Click here http://www.idownloadblog.com/2013/04/24/samsung-apple-trolls/ 3. TECNO has taken over ...I mean irrevocably taken over the AFRICAN MARKET! Market watchers here locally are consistently seeing the high influx importation of TECNO products into the country. And even a 5 year old can understand why. And you can't even still understand with this your opolo eye? Buhahaha a. PRESTIGE & CLASS is what Samsung claims to sell. Sorry dear, that market has shrinked with the cost faced by incessant repairs of Samsung smartphones! You sef no fit deny say your Samsung Galaxy never fu.c.k you up b. This is AFRICA. You play the game to win not to compete. Olodo! What does the MAJOR MARKET consist? THE COMMON MAN!!! c. TECNO delivers all the Android features without any boundary to who would afford it. SIMPLE STRATEGY!!! End of Story. d. TECNO has re-defined the emerging market business with an all-time high sales index pitching a trend for both HIGH-END LUXURY SMARTPHONES & LOW-CAPABILITY SMARTPHONES which you are referring to as Chinko. Why? Because you DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO BUSINESS like your stupid Samsung. Only to open your mouth and spread Malware-scare to Nairalanders! Go and play with sand jare 5 Likes |

michaelbiz: All this long story and absolutely zero susbstance. The entire point of discussion with you was that Tecno is a FAR smaller threat to Samsung than the likes of Xiaomi, Lenovo et al. You disputed that. I proceeded to show you that Samsung is FAR more worried about those other Chinese OEMs that sell more in a week than Tecno sells in a Quarter. You still persist in your ignorance. You don't even seem to realize the inanity in posting articles about Tecno being the market leader in Nigeria. When Blackberry was the market leader in Nigeria, did that prevent them from nearly slipping into bankruptcy? I asked you for any possible reason why you think Samsung could manipulate Lookout Security (valued at > $1bn, 45 million users) and you're posting an article about Samsung's habits of trolling tech blogs? Abeg go and learn and come back to discuss instead of airing your ignorance in public. Nobody is disputing whether Tecno has 'taken over the Nigerian market' or not. In the grand scheme of things, that does as much to Samsung's bottom line as BlackBerry's one-time dominance in Nigeria did when it came to keeping them afloat. 1 Like |

The attempts to debunk this report by people here while laughable is completely ridiculous. It's very hard for users of low quality mobiles to accept the fact that their beloved brands may have been shipping and selling products with malicious code in them. They don't realize the danger that all banking and sensitive transactions carried out on such devices may have been compromised but twist and turn and as they wish THEY are the ones who face the risk, THEY are the ones who stand to lose. 1 Like |

After writing this, I will not contribute to this particular issue anymore. For a very long time, I have read how people literally condemn others for using cheap chinese products. Every now and then we condemn those in power for their neglect of the ordinary man, but at the same time, see how we the people, keep condemning ourselves, because some are using samsung, iphone and the likes. Life and all decisions are full of choices, I will never look down on anybody, for buying cheap things. Afterall, it's the same network all phones use, the same sim card, same recharge card, same Nepa etc. The death that will take a samsung and iphone user, is the same that will take a tecno user, the same grave for both users. Finally, even if all these china phones have problems embedded in them, as a good person, why not profer solutions to those using cheap phones, than criticize and condemn them, afterall, till the end of the world, all fingers can and will never be equal. 5 Likes 2 Shares |
