I never implied that Aliexpress cheats. I only stayed things as they are.

If Xiaomi works for you and you are willing to take the risk of the fall out. Fine!

People buy Coca Cola for 50naira, yet someone at Eko hotel is paying 500 for same coke.

Most of you criticise tecno without using the device in question.

I was showcasing Camon Cx the other day and some of you Xiaomi fanboys came and started calling the device all sorts of names when they don't even know the smell of the carton.
Is that fair?

Are you saying that it is all who have disputes on Ali express that got their money refunded?
Is that what you are saying??

Yes, Camon Cx may not have IR blaster. Yes, we may have paid more for it...but let's not forget the advantages of "what you see is what you get"
No time wasting
No risk of money loss
There is a Smart pouch and other accessories.
Warranty
And a service centre to run to.

I don't insult any device. I have never.
But you lot derive pleasure from bashing tecno hatefully.

This has to stop.

If you want someone to buy your Xiaomi, why insult another brand?

How will putting off another man's candle help your own shine brighter?
Tell me, how?

Xiaomi fanboys abi marketers should stay on their lane, make me sef dey my lane.

Smh, wen all u play on your phone is candy crush and has less than 30 apps, come try games like mortal kombat jàre, let's see if your phone no go crash like 9/11 incident. Don't call that performance abeg, those quad core 1.1 to 1.5 ghz?

Unfortunately, Camon CX is 8 cores, not 4 cores and clocks at 1.5ghz.

See, that's the thing you don't get.
You choose smartphones based on your needs.

The only games I play on Android are Naija Ludo, then Ayo....sometimes.
If I have interest in mortal combat, I know the device I will go for.

I am satisfied with the ones I use presently.
When I have issues, I will announce it here.

On the contrary they are the ones who call my beloved phantom 6 crap when they don't even have an inkling of what the carton smells like.

The only issue I have with tecno is cost. But I no too blame them. Everything in Nigeria has put money. Everything.

Lwkmd, but you know they speak the truth about the CRAP thing, who sells a phone with a mediocre Mediatek Helio P10 for over 80k, except Gionee undecided? Even the outdated Xiaomi redmi note 2 with Mediatek Helio X10 outperforms it, so don't blame them for calling the Phantom 6 crap.

Re: What You Should Know About Buying Phones From Aliexpress by eleojo23: 10:28pm On Apr 20, 2017
I have personally been buying stuff from Chinese stores for the past 2 years without problem.
From geekbuying to gearbest to aliexpress, I have never had any negative experience.
The tablet I bought from geekbuying 2 years ago is still working fine. The Mifi device I bought 8 months ago from gearbest is still working fine. The phone I bought this year from aliexpress is still working fine.
There may be people who had issues but they are few.

The thing is, I look at value. If I feel a product has value, I go for it. Forget name. Utility first.

Shopping on stores like aliexpress is not for those with trust issues. You have to trust the seller before you can pay for your item and then wait for it to arrive.
Anybody wey nor get liver to shop on Chinese stores where you have to pay upfront and wait, should just stick to jumia and konga instead of discouraging people and trying to persuade them to be like him/her.

You people are being unreasonable.
Gioneeand Tecno and any device with such specs will sell at that price if they are in Nigeria.

The price of everything increased 100 percent.
Phantom 6 was pegged at 300 dollars.


In the good days, when dollar was 150, that's 45k.
Running cost is high. It will affect price of product and services.

So quality insults what people use their hard earned money to buy.

Quality trolls on every person who speaks in favor of tecno as a marketer, but when you speak in favour of Xiaomi, you are a fan, right?

I can't really say if selling at a high price is justified.

But we have seen scenarios where a laptop of 89k in the Uk goes for 140k here.

Infact, if you look closely, you will find that that of UK has more quality sef.

I maintain that it's a Nigerian problem.

Three crown sachet was 15 naira before. Now it is 40 naira.
Three crown produces in Nigeria....I think.

Tecno imports, they have staffs here that they must pay, they Advertise greatly. Dollars increase with nearly 200%

It is tough, trust me.

But then, I still feel they can do better.
Even with high cost of everything.

Lols... The point is they sell crap for that price.. a xaiomi snapdragon 625 sells less than 50k! Dollar rate is not the talk here...
