Tecno has been doing well in the African market no doubt especially in Nigeria. They have been making a lot of profit because of their low cost phones which makes a lot of people to patronize them. But with their newly released Phantom 5 which nobody cares to buy has been making the company to really know what went wrong. As a technical guru, I am here to outline the reasons behind why people don't want to buy the phone.
1, The phone does not really worth the tag prize. A lot of people were astonished seeing the price tag of the phone to be 70k. What really makes the phone 70k is the question people keep asking and they have not been able to answer this simple question
2, There other phones that has Same features that comes to with the Phantom 5, still the price of the phones are not up to 70k. I'm not going to mention any phone because I'm not here to promote any company.
3, Nothing special on the phone that will interest or motivate people to buy the phone at 70k. Is it the ram, internal memory, 4lte, LCD,. In fact nothing special.
4, Tecno is really loosing their good reputation on Nigeria because their products are not durable. With this four points, I'm advising tecno to go back on their drawing board and think how to upgrade, and also employ more advertisers to keep advertising their products, if not they will keep going down and other brands will surely overthrow them. I rest my case. https://wisdomkosiblog./2015/11/14/the-reasons-why-people-dont-buy-phantom-5/

which phone is that?

lawrenceunaa:

Not necessary secondhand value, the goodwill. There is this perception Nigerians have over other brands that the see tecno as a china phone whereas most of those popular brand are actually made in China.

Add to your point, general perception about tecno as inferior even when they try to add those ingredient to meet standards.

Is it worth 70k?

Aside from the phone price sef'..Nothing special bout it..- What can d phone do?dat a 30-40k phone wll probably not do? Mayb d good camera nd internal memory or wat? December don near;man gaz pay house rent fr new year'#

How do you know people are not buying it @op

OP, I think the only reason anyone won't buy the Tecno Phantom 5 is probably they can't afford it. It is worth the price though

You won't understand the different between Phantom five and other Flagships phone from other top brands until you use both.



Tecno Phantom 5 is a 45 - 50k smartphone, anything more than that is a waste of money

How do you know people are not buying it? The fact that you can't afford it doesn't mean others can't. Tecno has different phones for different people, so I don't see reasons you are complaining

that is just it.

Phantom is a good phone. I have handled it before. It is a premium phone, you don't expect it to be cheap!
