I'm from the US. Here Android and Iphones are all the rage. People constantly get Android and Iphones stolen because they are so popular. But since I've been on here a lot of people exchange bbpins. I have never heard of that to be completely honest. And if blackberries are the most popular phone, why are they so popular?

U can also save cost of call trough pinging, data plan of iphone and andriod is very expensive and most of thier functions and service are not usefull and available here in Nigeria for now. Hope i answer ur Q girl

@seunfly thank you for your very informative answer. I guess in that case I would get a blackberry as well. Android phones are easier and cheaper to get here but you will pay extremely high cell phone bills every month. Before I changed my plan I was paying 230 USD per month which is around 36,000 naira per month in any monetary denomination it's extremely expensive. I was talking to a friend from Germany who told me the phones are more expensive but the service is cheap. Can the same be said for phones in Nigeria?

the phone is equally expensive here too since network provider does not subsidies for phone as it is done in america also the service is very expensive.
