You can easily tell the LG V30 is a flagship device from its looks. It shows off a clean, sleek design somewhat reminiscent of the LG G6. Covering it on both the front and rear is robust Gorilla Glass 5. It improves on a front where its predecessor fell short of rivals: water resistance. This one has IP68 rating and is MIL-STD-810G compliant.
At 6 inches, the LG V30 is a beast! It interestingly makes great use of its large estate, sporting very tiny bezels. The OLED panel looks to offer awesome viewing, especially considering it boasts 2,880 x 1,440 pixels. This Full Vision display promises visuals somewhat comparable to what high-end UHD TVs provide.
CameraIn the LG V30 you have another flagship phone coming with a camera combo on the rear. You get a 16MP and 13MP sensors, improving on what the V20 offered. The shooters have aperture sizes of f/1.6 and f/1.9 respectively. This means you are better able to produce great shots in dark settings. There is robust Corning Gorilla Glass 4 on the lenses to protect against scratches.
The cameras offer a Point and Zoom feature that should make video recording more exciting. For selfies, you get a decent 5 megapixel snapper.
Hardware and SoftwareAs for the innards, the LG V30 packs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC. It most certainly doesn’t disappoint with this choice. The powerful processor, which comes with several other flagship rivals, promises powerful performance. It gets support from ample 4GB RAM.
Storage is generous at 64 GB or 128 GB, depending on the variant you buy. LG V30 ships with Android 7.1.2 Nougat having its owner’s skin on top.
Other FeaturesJuice supply is the duty of a 3,300mAh battery with wireless charging and fast charging. You top it up via a reversible USB Type-C port. The abundant internal storage is also expandable with a microSD card.
The LG V30 supports HDR 10 tech that are more common on the latest high-end TV sets for greater picture quality. In addition to a rear fingerprint sensor, you can also use your voice or face to unlock.

Flaunting a metal unibody design, the LeEco Le S3 brings some more expensive phones to mind with its looks. LeEco is not really that kind of company to disappoint with appearance of its devices, but the LeEco Le S3 could use less sharp angles and a brushed finish.
You will find a large 5.5-inch IPS display on the front. With a resolution of 1,080 x 1,920 pixels, it is safe to expect impressive wide viewing angles. On top of the display is robust Corning Gorilla Glass 3.

The LeEco Le S3 can shoot videos of up to 4K resolution at 30 frames per second. There is an 8MP front facing camera to cater to your selfie needs.
The phone offers 32 GB of storage space for keeping your photos and files. Sadly, it appears that’s all you get for storage – no expansion.
Performance and OSFor the money, you can expect impressive performance from this phone. Its Chinese maker equips it with an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor offering top speed of 1.8 GHz. So, you can expect the LeEco Le S3 to perform better than many rivals in the same price range.
LeEco Le S3 ships with Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system. This is not as bad as you might think when you consider when the phone was released. This has eUI skin on top.
Other Specs and FeaturesThe LeEco Le S3 has a fingerprint scanner on the rear for fast unlocking. Its juicer has a capacity of 3,000 mAh and enjoys Quick Charge 3.0 fast charge technology support. It may impress you to know that it boasts USB Type-C reversible connector and dual band Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac. You get to enjoy Dolby Atmos audio enhancement on the device.
LeEco Le S3 is available in Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya. The price starts at $127.99 at Banggood. You can buy the smartphone at leading online stores in your country. LeEco Le S3 Price in Nigeria ranges from 42,500 Naira to 95,000 Naira.

At its price, the LeEco Le Pro3 looks somewhat premium. It flaunts a slim metal unibody and weighs 175 grams. The sleek design means this one should attract fingerprints, at least a bit. You can get it in rose gold, gold, silver or grey finish.
The display is similar to that of the LeEco Le S3: a 5.5-inch IPS LCD unit. This also boasts Full HD resolution for a pixel density slightly over 400 pixels per inch. Enjoyable wide-angle viewing is not out of the question here.
Camera and StorageFor image capturing, there is a 16 megapixel shooter on the rear. This has an f/2.0 aperture, phase detection autofocus (PDAF) and dual-LED, dual tone flash. It shoots stunning 4K quality videos at 30 fps. The 8 megapixel selfie shooter also records Full HD (1080p) videos.
The LeEco Le Pro3 offers between 32 GB and 128 GB in onboard storage capacity. That’s enough to meet the need of most users – probably why its maker decided not to include a card slot.
Performance and OSThis one should satisfy you if, for some reason, the LeEco Le S3 failed to impress. LeEco Le Pro3 packs a heavy-duty Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 processor running at speeds up to 2.35 GHz. This is what you find on the best of flagships in 2016. So, expect nothing less than robust performance, especially with up to 6 GB of RAM available.
Out of the box, the LeEco Le Pro3 runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system. Lying on the surface is LeEco’s eUI 5.8 skin.
Other Specs and FeaturesYou can enjoy lightning fast 4G LTE connectivity on the LeEco Le Pro3. Its connectivity options include NFC, reversible USB Type-C port and infrared port. The phone promises faster wireless connection with dual band Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac.

Recall 13 years ago, Eedris Abdulkareem attempted to sit in a seat reserved for 50 Cent, but was prevented from doing so. The American rapper was billed to headline the annual Star Mega Jam when a mild drama ensued aboard an ADC airline from Lagos to Port Harcourt.
50 Cent asked him to get out of his seat, Eedris refused and told him that Nigeria was his country and that he has the right to seat anywhere.
Speaking in an interview with LIB, the “JAGAJAGA” who claimed he was protesting to the treatment given to foreign and local acts during the musical tour, said the beef was the revolution that got every artiste respected in the Nigerian industry and outside the country.
In his words;
When I was on the plane with 50, and he asked me to get the hell out of his seat. I said no, this is Nigeria, this is my country.
‘He can’t come here and tell me shit, that isn’t gonna happen. That was the revolution that got every artistes respected in the Nigerian industry and it took them all over the country.’
‘That was the defending moment for the Nigerian artistes, I can remember at the back stage, Psquare was sent away, a couple of people were also sent a way and I wasn’t happy about it.’
‘But moving forward, I’m happy for the Nigerian Industry and am happy with everything that’s happening today.’
3 years later, in 2007, the pair squashed off their beef when 50 Cent came to Nigeria to perform at media launch of the KORA Awards in Abuja, Eedris publicly apologised to him on stage.
