I Got My Samsung S5 3wks Ago, The Phone Is Far *BELOW*My Expectation by forlahkhe: 1:18pm On Jun 27, 2016 |
i dont know much abt phones but i did my research on nairaland b4 settling for samsung s5. i wanted camon 8 bt my last expwrience with techno made me change my mind; i was using techno A+ b4 which i got 2yrs ago. The phone was writing "memory full" and after abt 1week, it stopped working. i tried to put it on bt to no avail. it wont even charge sef so i gave it to an engnr @ computer village ikeja and till now he's yet ro fix it(since february). Nairalanders are always talking abt samsung here and there and now i've got the samsung, ME NO C ANYTHING SPECIAL ABOUT THE PHONE oo. it has fingerprint scanner.......And so? na dt 1 we wan chop ni? |

Why are you confusing people here? Your topic says that the phone is far beyond your expectations while the body of your post is telling us how the phone is far below your expectations. Please make up your mind and clarify us. 4 Likes |

forlahkhe: I have nothing against tecno but if you actually bought an original Samsung S5 without factory faults, it should beat a camon c9 or even future c10. they are not mates in any way Infact, I put it to you you are a tecno marketer. even an S4 will outmatch a Camon c8 19 Likes |

forlahkhe: okay..one for you..I understand if you just want the normal browsing,music,camera, Samsung is overkill for you.tecno will do and will get good value for your money Samsung has wide customisation options that will not fancy a normal user.. such things as xda developers custom rom support, instructibles.com mods etc are for the geeks only. till any tecno phone features a Qualcomm processor with NFC,..........vamoose 4 Likes |

forlahkhe: You're welcome. Like someone said above, S5 is a fairly older device so you can't expect all the wow features by 2016 standards on the device. |

Maybe because you're a lady Samsung Galaxy S5 was referred to as Almighty during it's time! as it is now, I can say it's better than all techno or infinix flagship phones You have unlimited possibilities with your S5, from tweaking, custom roms with some s7 and note 5 features, xposed , camera, fingerprint and it's mediocre water proof capability you can't get tired, you're under utilizing the phone.

Op before you buy phone always list out features you want the phone to have, review the features online, likewise read more about the features. Then research for a phone that has most of the features you want. One phone will NOT have all you want, then you begin to shop for that phone. If you are going to use 2 phones the second phone should carry the features you had to forgo for the first one. Samsung phones are good and reliable depending on what you want. Do not buy a phone because everyone says its good but cos of what you like about the phone, also do not restrict your research to just nairaland try other sites like www.engadget.com www.cnet.com www.techradar.com www.gsmarena.com and Marques Brownlee - YouTube videos for phone reviews. With all these site and more you should get better view of any phone you decide to buy in future. I use a Samsung Note 4, love the phone for certain features, Samsung phones are known for average battery life. So i make sure to keep apps closed or deleted if not in use often. Hope this helps for your next phone purchase. forlahkhe: 1 Like |

The op is saying the truth jare S5 was a crap. Seem... I have said this on a thread 2weeks back.. s5. The 16MP flops. No OIS in a flagship... Ram is 2GB Designed like toy.. Someone was trying to buy the rubbish for N130k.. Samsung is only Selling Name S6 was released to correct after 5 months Techno j8 would have been a best bet 3 weeks ago |

forlahkhe:first of all, upgrade it to Android marshmallow 6.0 Cyanogen mode or stock. I'd prefer Cyanogen Mode. customize via themes. change boot image. The long and short is there's alot you're yet to discover. Like applying Cyanogen Mode OS, tecno and their likes don't have updates from Cyanogen Mode. please don't change your phone. Samsung is a great phone. Plus if your phone falls and the screen breaks it's screen is still going to work perfectly because of the Corning gorilla glass plus there are more sensors in Samsung than in all there silly tecno phones. let me stop here. 3 Likes |
