how much . chat me up on whatsapp 08082409934

Guys, please can I still use this ruptured battery? It ruptured while I was trying to change the screen on a kiddies tab. It gave off some gases and odour the moment it ruptured but didn't swell.

Is it still safe to use and repeated charge without risking an explosion. The tab is for my nephew.

Interesting read. I must commend your determination to get most item on your wish list for the TV. Buying a used TV for a vendor is a big no for me sha. I pray you you get justified for the bargain in retrospect

why burn the poor goat though . i suspect he was caught having sex with it

Exactly what I thought, it must be a case of bestiality for the goat to be burnt with the victim if the story is true and not fabricated because that scene does not fit into a scene where any form of fire incident happened. Still I say NO TO JUNGLE JUSTICE

it is still funny that I haven't experienced any of the bugs some people are complaining of here that aside... The guy really need to do a lot of research about phones and their brands in China to start with cos of the market power... Now on the x5 does that mean Nokia will reduce the quality of the phone cos it is meant for China market.. Do you think they don't value their quality control or they don't have standard unlike most of the product that is produced for Nigeria market..... Anyways I am enjoying my x5...its a beauty to behold

Nokia will not deliberately compromise on quality regardless of the market, worst case you will have the minimum value money will get.

Troublemaker101:
Ok,ok ... Time to end this nonsense fight between x5 & 5.1 plus s
So I asked a friend whose uncle works for Nokia as an executive marketer about the surprising price difference between the x5 and the 5.1 plus and here's what his uncle told him PS: if u think it has anything to do with the earpiece or extra LTE bands then you're very mistaken
As we all know, the x5 was originally meant for China as it doesn't come with a pure Android one os like the 5.1 plus which was meant for global use, those that were talking about complaints being more from x5 s were very correct cuz the update wasn't originally meant for the phone, it just got added as a last minute attempt to reach the multitude as many people like bargains and China has more people than most places in the world , so they didn't want them to feel discouraged and left behind, ultimately the x5 will experience more bugs than the 5.1 plus on an average scale and future updates might not necessarily solve most of those problems so he was told. Secondly, the 5.1 plus is expected to last longer than the x5 due to unspecified upgrades to the 5.1 plus before official announcement ... He said he's waiting to see an x5 who would use the phone for more than a year and a half without countless issues. Thirdly, the warranty also plays a huge part too in the price difference
So there it is people, as dem explain give me na so I take paste am for here sha o the x6 isn't also spared from this news too

LOL.. While I am supposed to take this as an insight, I just have to laff it off.
You might be right on the bug experienced by some on their X5 or X6. I don't really understand how that works. I haven't experienced anything of such.

Now I laughed on the durability part, you said he suggested X6 and X5 will have countless issues... Isn't that laughable to you and you feel it is logical that Nokia will produce the model with inferior materials that won't stand the test of time and introduce it to the China market where the company is pushing to regain significant market share by earning it.

That's what is laffable. Don't just listen to what people say, read and research.

Don't you know that those that bought the X5 or X6 in China to use in China enjoy warranty on the product.

Then, just incase you don't know, almost all the major player in the mobile industry have the price of their product significantly cheaper in China than other countries of the world. The increase in price across the global market is as a result several factors ranging from production, labour, transportation, licensing, storage, marketing, storage, distribution, taxes, promotions, competitions etc

tosins:


Please which 4g lte sim are you using on your x6

Only Airtel and Ntel 4g works for now in Nigeria and some reported Glo 4g too in some locations . Personally I didn't allocate any ed 4g sim to my phone

NigeriaB:


Personally I can pay any amount to get an original follow come earpiece of a phone..I can even pay 10k. Now how do u justify d fact dat Ur Nokia X5 doesn't come with an earpiece?

For dis reason alone, I can never regret or feel bad dat I got my 5.1plus 73k even though some others are getting somtin similar for 48k. I had d two options before me , infact I was even told severally, like what u guys are doing now dat both phones are same.. still I went for d 5.1plus which I'm really enjoying with my original follow come Nokia earpiece now . hehehe

Bro, the ear piece addon does not help your narrative. It shows you never really dig deep into the facts before buying.
The 6.1plus for International Market was packed with the manuals, charger, cable, earpiece, sim tray ejector and the phone itself. Note: the earpiece is even the regular earpiece that shipped with the Nokia 1. There is nothing special about that earpiece.

The X6 for the Chinese Market shipped with the above, the exemption is the earpiece was substituted for the silicon case which is even a more functional accessory for instant use.

yusfatedeeprof:

Baba stop trying to justify the price of Nokia 5.1 plus compared to x5.....i know that feeling, it's not easy knowing that the Nokia 5.1plus you brought for 70k is basically the same phone with x5 of 50k

Please allow the brother soothe his wound. They find it difficult to it they didn't choose the better bargain. I forgo the extra Lte bands for more money in my pocket.
My X6 from China flashed with global rom is Nokia 6.1 plus. Even buyers from North America with better purchasing power took advantage of this lopsided market price.

Never for one day has my phone struggled with the Android One experience.

I have never experienced a bug after update... Can't tell y the bug is selective.

This is y I brought this phone, prompt updates and promised

Why you sef go buy rubbish brand 'samsong', com sef small for the sensor the phone no get now.

Djdannyb4u:


Mizuki what do U say in of the storage & screen resolution of the Nokia X6 compared to the Nokia x5. I'm a heavy movie & app er.

Bros, you see that experience above is exactly what I have with my X6. Purely same.
Equally as confused as you when I was about buying the phone. But I was clear later I want the X6 because of the shorter notch, 6gb variant and white color. These 3 settled it bcus I have a little more money to spend.

The X6 is marginally better not considerably better.
One thing also I heard there is no molded Google camera for the X5.

So let your budget decide. I intend to use this phone for 5 years Issa Allah.

Mrjo:
Please someone here help me, I bought new SD card for my Nokia 1 I installed it as phone memory but now I can't make use of camera cause it keeps on telling me to insert SD card, please what should I do?

At first thought, the card might be fake or badly partitioned. But try on another device first.

whogatti:
are you sure about this scratch stuff cos I've been using mine since January and nothing like scratch despite putting in my pocket with a bunch of keys

That's my experience bro. I'm not talking about a big dent on the screen but scratches that are noticeable when screen light is out and angles bent. Maybe u should check yours again if is without temper glass.

kcwitch:


Oh! And their scratch test said nothing will happen. It is well

No mind the scratch test guyz.. Can you imagine the Sunday after the Friday I got this phone, I forgot it in my pocket in church with my house keys, and there was a noticeable scratch on the screen afterwards. The keys are not even the regular jagged keys.
After that, I was careful with what comes in with the phone, yet different little scratches were obvious on the screen. Seem Nokia is not really Nokia anymore.

Yet still, when I do a comparative cost analysis to value, I will give this phone 91 out of 100. Very fluid and no lag at all.

kcwitch:


Pls how much did you buy yours?

On Jumia, April store #70,390 [delivery included]

I didn't add to the review, this is a phone u should have ur temper glass on from unwrapping, it picks scratches easily even without coming in with hard objects.

Okay lemme write a short review of this phone Nokia X6, 6gb ram 64 gb rom. I have had this phone for 18days now. I will rate different aspect of the phone on a scale of 5. Note, this review is based on my experience and bias.

Cosmetic ~ 4.8
From unboxing the phone, you will instantly fall in love with the nice glossy glass finish. All buttons are exactly where you want them and feel very nice on click.
Screen ~ 3.6
The IPS Lcd screen of the phone is very captivating, exact color bend. However, the screen touch is not very responsive on double tap to wake up the phone an opposite experience to the experience I had while using the Nokia lumia 930 which was very responsive and sensitive. I particularly love to use the double tap to wake up my phone, otherwise I would have rated the screen a 4.3
Camera ~ 4
The pictures are good enough to capture moments exactly as they unravel. Good image stabiliser too on video recording.
Battery ~ 4.1
A full charge gives approximately 8 hours screen on time on moderate use and about 5 hours on heavy use. On standby, I'm sure the phone can last 2 days on light usage.
interface and rendering ~ 4.4
Pure android one expérience, no unnecessary apps and ads. Highly optimised.
Audio ~ 4.8
Not exactly loud speaker for both calls and media but just precise quality for my listening.
Connectivity ~ 4.9
The network signal reception is very good, even while in the elevator you are all connected. Downside though is the X6 isn't compatible with Mtn and other network 4g in Nigeria. Made me waste the massive 4.5 gb awoof data Mtn gave me on sim upgrade though the blame I returned back to Mtn. Data bonus should not come with such cavaet.

Mizik:

Is this the bokeh effect Very nice
Edit: Sorry I didn't read page 50 b4 the question.

Someone should tell me how to install gcam on this device X6.... No bug or lag experienced on pie here and battery is more conserved now.

Nova15:

How can this be corrected?

I ave enabled the battery saver feature, I think that helps.

Nova15:

You're experiencing the battery ish too?

Yes, battery dropping faster by say 15%

Mizik:
Are you talking about the X5?

I'm talking X6. To me both x5 and X6 are same with little differences.

Nova15:
I upgraded my Nokia 5 to android 9, but I noticed there's a large drop in battery. I don't know what's wrong. Anybody here with this same issue?

Same here too... Upgraded yesterday. But few improvements noticed too... Double tap to wake phone more responsive than on oreo, better camera, better ram management and interface.
Still surprised what eating the battery

Hey guy, please i need help on how to install gcam on x6. I have ed 2 gcam apk, but once i click the install icon nothing happens. I guess it has something to do with giving permission to install from unknown source but issue it i can't find that "install app from unknown sources" from the security settings. Help please.

AirVaans:
Hi Guys... Battery is one of the most important things to me when it comes to mobile phones. And I'm seeing some reviews about Nokia X5 battery draining Fast, I really love the phone design and build quality but I'm worried about the battery. Please please please I want someone to give a First hand review and experience about Nokia 5.1 plus (X5) battery Life.... X5 s please get in here biko, it's a matter of life and death ooo

you should understand that experience is always relative and reviews are subjective. Read more reviews from all over the world especially from Indians on YouTube and gsmarena.
I am happy with the battery performance of the x6 so far however I am not a heavy phone . Usually do data usage based app for 4hrs a day on 3g, overall screen on time of say 6 hrs per day. It meets my need absolutely.
Had it since Friday and I have only charged twice, from opening the box met it at 86 charged to 100 and last night from 35percent to 100 right now typing it's at 66%.
Both x6 and x5 have same screen size and battery, but the x5 helio p60 is not too battery conservative like the Snapdragon 636 buh I bet the differences will be marginal and negligible.
Hope this helps.

gambus007:

How do u know it cant b fixed? 5.1plus nd x5 they are the same. Just don't pray you fall victim of factory error issue because the shop way u buy am go give u stories..and you cant compare what is produced for chinese pple to b better than the so called Global version. If you have money to waste buy Global version..all na same same.

I do not seem to understand how some came to that conclusion that is can't be repaired bcus it is not under warranty within the country. Even with warranty, they often only repair it and not replace with a new device and mind you also repairs are only free when damages can be asserted to arise from fair usage not careless usage. So there is a responsibilty either ways to exercise due dilligence and care in use.

Should you have any problem with the device, go computer village the parts are there.

Great ....My X6 just delivered by Jumia... The white one is just too beautiful, 6gb ram+64gb rom....Super fast phone. Loving it bad

NigeriaB:


Yes, true!! Though I use d global version! 73k, from shop

Okay bro, still waiting for my x6 from jumia. I hope it arrives this week, ordered on the 5th.

gambus007:

Not true. Still poor

Pathetic Nokia, they can't revive the magical camera work of the lumia

gambus007:

Alot of people are complaining about charge port issue after 3 to 4 months usage . I'm not sure if the problem is associated with country of production or across production although most of dose who are complaining are from India.I just hope Chinese version will not be affected else that will be a serious problem for x5 nd x6 s in Nigeria. Battery life is not that good compare to my moto z2 play nd camera is very poor in low light condition(Nokia x6). Gcam will do well but crashes when in need of it. If you want upgrade in of beautiful design, smoothness and ram management you can pick x6. If you are heavy ,non case and big screen lover then the phone is not for you.
Cons
Poor camera production in low light condition
Battery not good for heavy s
Fragile due to glass back cover(non-case s)
Network bar nd date is so tiny
Warm up sometimes( about 40 degree Celsius)
Pros.
Updates( Pie nd security patches).
Beautiful display(clear under the sun).
Good ram management.
Pure android stock(If you dont like unnecessary application).
Good customers agent chat(They respond well nd fast).
Camera is good outside.
5.8inches and portable ....My personal opinion

Yes good and sincere summary of people's reviews but I disagree with the 'a lot of people', I will say a 'pocket of people' (naija english) complained of charging port fault in x5. I heard the low light bad picture issue was resolve with the pie update, how true?

GrahamGeorge:


I used first Bank
The rate was 360n to $1

That's a good rate compared to others.

GrahamGeorge:


Welcome bro.. I ordered my Nokia 6.1 on the 20th of last month from aliexpress
Still haven't gotten it yet�

Hey bro, please lets know when it arrives, the fear of custom fee at the post office chased me from aliexpress go jumia.

Please, can i know the exchange rate your bank used per usd?

do4luv14:



ya, being reading reviews about them,

which is the cheapest, or which one can I get between 25-27k

If it is still nokia you're interested, that should get you Nokia 1 or 2. Good devices too
