Other Than 2nd Hand Value, What Other Reason Do I Have To Purchase An Iphone? by Darlinx01(m): 1:01pm On Jun 06, 2020
Goodday guys. I've been wondering why people spend money on outdated iphones? Like if u are not going to buy the iphone x and upwards? Why spend so much money on dat outdated design, poor battery life etc when u could get better offers from android? Why say ios or ntin? Why buy a phone which u cant carry abt without a powerbank? Its true dey've gat good processors, cool optimizations and stuffs, but you'll get good competitions frm android wit few compromises, but better screen, better battery at same or even lesser prices? Why go for iphone 6s or even 7 when u can get better phones like d redmi note 8, etc or even d iphone 8 plus when u could get better value for money such as realme x50 pro with sd855, and other cooler choices. Dnt buy brand name....think quality.

See, most Nigerians especially the ladies buy iPhone just to feel like little 'gods' but deep in their closets, they are damn broke 'gods'. What they are after of major is the camera and for people to say 'wow, he's using an iPhone' but then, androids are now even on par, some even better so, YES, I MEAN IT!

Most of them would buy iPhone of 50, 60k yet they'll have the guts to talk trash about those using Androids worth more with better specs.

I have noticed most of these said people use iPhone 6 and 7. Heck! These phones are over 4 years old.

Anyway, it's a free world, people have the freedom to chose which lifestyle they prefer but please don't form what you are not because you might be missing real helpers cheesy

Class. Prestige. Security. Innovation.
This is not to discredit Android but because iPhone runs on its own ecosystem, it commands a Lil more respect. you can't expect someone using a Oneplus to be in that much awe of someone using a Samsung, we're both using the same android version, your camera might be better but what the heck.

IPhone is unique and well secured compare to android. This is the main reasons why many opt for their used brand. Anyway does any have Gionee M6 mirror for sale?

Do I look like marketer to you or is because of the love for tecno that make you think otherwise? If I was paid, nairaland for don scatter with aggressive advertisements. The way I promote techno on this forum ehen, Seun will be smiling to the bank. I will so choke others that they will run from this platform. Be as it may, I love all brands.

You redmi marketers are becoming stupiid and hopeless on daily basis.

As I was reading through the story... I was already expecting the part where you will insert one stupid redmi product for people to buy.

And boy... Was I disappointed? Never!

For those reading this...

Just know that comparing redmi to iPhones is like comparing a subaru suv to a Rolls Royce Phantom.

An Iphone of 2015 will beat down any Redmi of 2020... Any day, Anytime.

use google nexus or pixel u will tire of updates (sometimes u get updates before the release it officially), fludity boils down to the users and premium android device can give u class so forget that shit u are saying.

behind every purchase we make, there are so many factors we take into consideration even for something as Lil as biscuit.
Apart from making calls and receiving messages and surfing the web, what other reasons are there to buy a phone. if you want to strip it down to the basics, then even buying a phone of 100,000 will not be justifiable.

iPhones receive support for a really long time.. iPhone 7 of 2017 will still receive updates till 2022 .. pixel phones are the only phones that update up to 3 times !! Their ability to optimise the UI and process tasks!! iPhones are ageless

Because it's an iPhone and it has a nice camera grin But on a more serious note, other than being expensive, iOS devices are very nice and efficient. The 11pro max has the best battery out of every phone I have ever seen
