Oppo much like some smartphone OEMs out there released two similar smarphones only different by RAM size and internal storage space. The Oppo A5 is the exact same model has the Oppo A3s except for the higher 64GB storage space and 4GB RAM the former have. There is also another catch, the Oppo A5 is made primarily for the Chinese market which makes it a geographical variant of the Oppo A3s. More RAM means it’ll be faster and multitask smoothly and then the bigger storage space, although, both have the same expansion limit of 256GB.

We’ve seen some features in high end smarphones trickle down to budget smartphones, from the dual camera showing its face to some even going ahead to sport quad cameras and now some of the new entry-level smarphones now have a notched display. The Oppo A3s is made this way, to have a likeness to premium smarphones with it’s dual rear camera, 18:9 aspect ratio, display notch and an almost all screen front. However, the smartphone has entry-level specs which makes it an entry level smartphone.

As discussed earlier, the smartphone has been incorporated with recent trends in the smartphone industry which makes it look more appealing to the eye. Nonetheless, being made of plastic gives the smartphone away when you’re up close but it also makes it lighter. There’s an audio jack a feature that you can’t be too sure of on smarphones nowadays and a fine finish that is available in red and deep purple.
Want to know how it feels like to use a smartphone with notched display and don’t want to part with too much or you just want to try it out anyway. This might be the place to start without having to pay much. That aside, the display here is quite large meaning you can watch movies enjoyably on but not with much clarity considering the low HD+ resolution.
Battery and CameraIf you are gunning for a budget smartphone with a decent battery life at least on paper, the Oppo A3s might just be the smartphone for you. It has a massive 4, 230mAh battery capacity and specs that does not demand much in terms of power consumption. For charging, there is a MicroUSB port and no fast charge which means it will take some time to reach full charge.
Entry-level smartphones are not known for their camera prowess which points out what to expect on the Oppo A3s. Not withstanding, the smartphone does not entirely falter in its capturing abilities with the dual rear 13MP pus 2MP camera and its decent 8MP selfie shooter with AI beautification.
Hardware and SoftwareIn the midst of it all, the smartphone is powered by a decent eight core Qualcomm SoC. The Qualcomm SDM450 Snapdragon 450 processor handles basic tasks with ease and will serve you day to day with minimal hiccups. However, heavy application or tasks has every tendency of causing glitches.
The rest of the spec sheet is also of budget status, with just 16GB of internal storage which has been reduced by the system software pre-installed. Speaking of system software, the smartphone boots Android 8.1 Oreo and multitasks using 2GB RAM space.
Oppo A3s Pricing and AvailabilityThe cost of getting the smartphone is around 57, 000 Naira depending on your location and the deal.
Here are a few specs of the Oppo A3s:

Leagoo has been extending its reach lately especially in Nigeria where it is now becoming a product you can see from time to time in people’s hands. The Leagoo M0 Pro is the upgrade of the Leagpo M9 and it has a similar dual camera feature in common. Basically, this is a smartphone that looks quite good even though it is not as good as it looks on the inside. Instead what you have is a budget smartphone that has been made in a way to have some premium semblance.
Jumia Nigeria – See Offers | Jumia Kenya – See Offers
One thing is to be clear here, while the images on the Leagoo’s website might suggest a bezel-less display, the smartphone is not actually bezel-less as it does have some slight bezels at the side. Also, the smartphone is made of plastic with a bit of metal at the side and the rear side is dubbed with a dual camera, dual LED flash, fingerprint scanner and Leagoo written vertically all at the upper mid-section.
The chin has been reduced with the navigation buttons shifted on-screen while the forehead too is also reduced while still housing an earpiece speaker, camera, flash and the appropriate sensors. In the middle, the smartphone sports a 5.72-inch screen with an HD+ resolution and a 281 ppi pixel density.
Battery and CameraThe Leagoo M9 Pro comes with an average capacity which can not really be faulted since it has not been dubbed a battery juggernaut and it is fairly sufficient for daily use. It sports a 3, 000mAh battery with no wireless charging or fast charge, an expected omission considering the budget status.
Dual camera is a feature that has found its way even to the budget level and the Leagoo M9 Pro is one of those smartphones that have the feature. The rear is blessed with a deuce of 13MP and 2MP camera alongside a dual LED flash to light things up. Selfies will be taken using the 5MP front canmera which also comes with a flash for better lighting.
Hardware and SoftwareAs I mentioned earlier, the Leagoo M9 Pro doesn’t come with much on the inside and that is proven by its Quad-core MediaTek MT6739 chipset and IMG 8XE 1PCC GPU. Furthermore, it sports a 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage that you can increase to 128GB using a MicroSD card. In conclusion, it has Leagoo OS 3 which is based on Android 8.1 Oreo booting up with the smartphone.
Leagoo M9 Pro Pricing and AvailabilityThe smartphone is available for sale on several online stores with a price tag of around 34, 000 Naira based on the deal and your location.
Here are a few specs of the Leagoo M9 Pro:
General Features Platform: Android 8.1 Oreo (Go Edition) Processor: Quad-core MediaTek MT6739 GPU: PowerVR GE8100 Memory: 2GB RAM Colours: Gold, Black, Blue Dimension: 71.2 x 148.0 x 9.5 mm Weight: 153g SIM Type: Nano SIM SIM Count: Dual SIM Display Display: 5.72-inch, IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen, 1440 x 720 pixels Screen Protection: – Camera Rear Camera: Dual 13MP + 5MP camera, 1080p Video@30fps Rear Camera Features: Autofocus, LED flash, Geo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, panorama Front Camera: 5MP camera, 720p Video@30fps Storage Built-in Storage: 16GB Memory Card Support: Yes, up to 64GB Bundled Cloud Storage: – Network Support 2G GSM: Yes 2G CDMA 1X: – 3G WCDMA: Yes 3G CDMA EVDO: – 4G LTE: Yes Internet & Connectivity GPRS: Yes EDGE: Yes 3G/WCDMA/HSPA: Yes HSPA+: Yes CDMA EVDO: – 4G LTE: Yes WLAN: Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi Hotspot: Yes Bluetooth: Yes NFC: – Infrared Blaster: – USB Port: MicroUSB 2.0 Messaging SMS/MMS: Yes Instant Messaging: Yes Push Emails: Yes Email Protocol: – Entertainment Music Player: Yes Video Player: Yes FM Radio: Yes Loudspeaker: Yes 3.5mm Jack: Yes Navigation Navigation: Yes, with A-GPS Maps: Yes Sensors & Control Digital Compass: – Accelerometer: Yes Proximity Sensor: Yes Light Sensor: Yes Barometer: – SpO2: – Pedometer: – Heart Rate Monitor: – Gyroscope: – Fingerprint Scanner: Yes, (rear( Iris Scanner: – Face Unlock: Yes Intelligent Digital Assistant: – Motion Sensing / Gesture Control: – Voice Control: – Other Features Video Streaming: Yes Active Noise Cancellation: Yse Wireless Charging: – Built-in Mobile Payment: – Water Resistant: – Dust Resistant: – Image Editor: Yes Video Editor: Yes Document Viewer: Yes Document Editor: Yes Battery Battery: 3, 000mAh non removable Li-Ion battery Talktime: – Standby Time: – Fast Charging: –The post Leagoo M9 Pro Specs and Price appeared first on Nigeria Technology Guide.
Presenting UmiDiGi’s flagship for the year, UmiDigi Z2 Pro which also takes the title of the first smartphone to come with the Helio P60 chipset to have. On the outside, there is still the same design as the UiDigi Z2 which looks stunning by the way but with an entirely different story on the inside. The smartphone is not in the league of other flagships like the Samsung Galaxy S9 or Huawei P20 Pro, you could consider the smartphone a mid-range flagship.

UmiDigi Z2 Pro gets right on the design-front with a glass build and another ceramic option which all depicts an expert craftsmanship. There are also several colour options to pick from all having a well polished metallic frame. The front has a large screen with not too obvious bezels at the side and a bit of a chin at the bottom while at the top there is a notch.
There are a number of differences between the UmiDigi Z2 and Z2 Pro but the display is not one of them. It has a 6.2-inch LCD screen and a corresponding 2246 x 1080 pixels resolution. There is no mention of Corning Gorilla Glass or any other protection so you should be careful or just get a screen guard.
Battery and CameraBattery stays the same too at just a bit above the average capacity but this will do just fine for your day to day usage. In that regard, the UmiDigi Z2 Pro has a 3, 550mAh battery that can be charged wirelessly and also support quick charge using a USB Type-cable.
The quad camera setup continues on the Pro model with the same set of sensors. You should, however, not expect anything less than good picture quality from both cameras on the rear and front side. The smartphone will be shooting with a 16MP and 8MP duo from the rear and front likewise although the former is a 6-element lens while the latter is a 5-element lens.
Hardware and SoftwareThere is a high prospect of what the MediaTek P60 can do being a new SoC around the block but it is still not close to what the Kirin and Snapdragon flagship bring to the table. That said, there is the MediaTek P60 at the core and an ARM Mali G72 MP3 GPU all making sure you have a pleasant experience.
Also, there is a 6GB RAM and 128GB of storage space which can be expanded to 256GB. In addition, it boots Android 8.1 Oreo from the factory which is what is expected of a smartphone released at this time.
UmiDigi Z2 Pro Pricing and AvailabilityThe smartphone costs around 110, 000 Naira depending on your location and the deal you can get from various online stores of choice.
Here are a few specs of the UmiDigi Z2 Pro:
General Features Platform: Android 8.1 Oreo Processor: Octa-core MediaTek Helio P60 GPU: ARM Mali G72 MP3 Memory: 6GB RAM Colours: Twilight, Carbon fibre, ceramic black Dimension: 153.4 x 74.4 x 8.3 mm Weight: 165g SIM Type: Nano SIM SIM Count: Dual SIM Display Display: 6.2-inch, IPS LCD touchscreen, 1080 x 2160 pixels (402 ppi) Screen Protection: Corning Gorilla Glass 3 Camera Rear Camera: Dual 16MP + 8MP camera, 2160@30fps, 1080p Video@30/60fps Rear Camera Features: Autofocus, LED flash, Geo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, panorama Front Camera: Dual 16MP + 8MP camera, 1080p Video@30fps Storage Built-in Storage: 128GB Memory Card Support: Yes, up to 256GB Bundled Cloud Storage: – Network Support 2G GSM: Yes 2G CDMA 1X: – 3G WCDMA: Yes 3G CDMA EVDO: – 4G LTE: 4G: TDD-LTE 34 /38 /39 /40 /414G: FDD-LTE 1 /2 /3 /4 /5 /7 /8 /12 /13 /17 /18 /19 /20 /25 /26 /28A /28B Internet & Connectivity GPRS: Yes EDGE: Yes 3G/WCDMA/HSPA: Yes HSPA+: Yes CDMA EVDO: – 4G LTE: Yes WLAN: Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, WiFi Direct Wi-Fi Hotspot: Yes Bluetooth: Yes, v4.2 with A2DP, LE, AptX NFC: Yes Infrared Blaster: – USB Port: USB Type-C 3.1 Messaging SMS/MMS: Yes Instant Messaging: Yes Push Emails: Yes Email Protocol: – Entertainment Music Player: MP3/AAC+/WAV/Flac player Video Player: MP4/H.264 player FM Radio: Yes Loudspeaker: Yes 3.5mm Jack: – Navigation Navigation: Yes, with A-GPS, GLONASS, BDS Maps: Yes Sensors & Control Digital Compass: Yes Accelerometer: Yes Proximity Sensor: Yes Light Sensor: Yes Barometer: – SpO2: – Pedometer: – Heart Rate Monitor: – Gyroscope: Yes Fingerprint Scanner: Yes, (rear) Iris Scanner: – Face Unlock: Yes Intelligent Digital Assistant: – Motion Sensing / Gesture Control: – Voice Control: – Other Features Video Streaming: Yes Active Noise Cancellation: Yes Wireless Charging: Yes Built-in Mobile Payment: – Water Resistant: – Dust Resistant: – Image Editor: Yes Video Editor: Yes Document Viewer: Yes Document Editor: Yes Battery Battery: 3, 950mAh non removable Li-Ion battery Talktime: – Standby Time: – Fast Charging: Yes

Surging further in its quest to regain its ground in the smartphone market, a follow-up release have been made to the BlackBerry KeyOne. BlackBerry smartphones are now made by TCL which is responsible for making Alcatel phones too in a similar way HMD makes Nokia phones. The BlackBerry Key2 now has an improved qwerty keyboard which is also now capacitive and a revised build but nothing drastic. Also, the phone now features an improved spec sheet which includes a dual rear camera and hardware to name a few.
The BlackBerry Key2 keeps the physical buttons which is something you don’t see on smartphones nowadays. A lot of work has been put into the qwerty keypads which you can see in how functional it has become. You can now swipe on the keyboard to navigate in apps plus there is a better spatial arrangement with backlight. A new key has been added at the bottom-right part called the speedy key which serves as a shortcut by pressing it together down and tapping any other letter (must have been preset).
The space bar also doubles as a fingerprint reader just in case you were looking for designated round space. There is a matte finish at the rear which by the way has a pleasant feel to it. There is a USB Type-C port at the bottom in between the speaker grille while the sim port is at the left side and the right side house the volume rocker, power button and another button called the convenience key. The convenience key has a unique surface to differentiate it from the power button and can be configured to launch any action of choice.
DisplayAt 4.5-inch, the screen is a bit small and if you like watching movies a lot you might not like this phone too much. On the other hand, the smartphone’s screen is only good in portrait mode and certainly not good for gaming because of the lack of equilibrium in landscape orientation. The display is good enough with a resolution of 1620 x 1080 pixels with a fair brightness too and can be seen outdoors
Battery and CameraUnlike the old history of poor battery life in BlackBerry phones, the BlackBerry Key2 has a good battery life although it is most certainly not going to win any award. The smartphone is powered by a 3, 500mAh battery with fast charge also supported. It doesn’t have wireless charging, not like you are going to miss it that much with the/Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 on board.
BlackBerry joins in the dual camera wagon with the BlackBerry Key2 having the feature on the rear side. Camera performance has to be stellar at this price point and what the smartphone delivers is not particularly impressive. It shoots with a combo of two 12MP cameras, one having a f/1.8 aperture while the other has f/2.6. In the area of selfies, you have a single 8MP camera in charge and it has a quite underwhelming performance.
Hardware and SoftwareThe smartphone has the same set of chipset as the Nokia 7 Plus and it had a good track record performance-wise. Talking about the processor, there is the Qualcomm SDM660 Snapdragon 660 with eight cores accompanied by an Adreno 512 GPU. This performs well enough working hand in hand with 6GB RAM and a 64GB or 128GB storage space from the box. A heavy modification has been made by BlackBerry to the Android 8.1 Oreo for more security and some handy shortcuts.
BlackBerry Key2 Pricing and AvailabilityThe smartphone is available for sale in different online stores and retail hubs around for 235, 000 Naira depending on the location and deal.
Here are a few specs of the BlackBerry Key2:
General Features Platform: Android 8.1 Oreo Processor: Octa-core Qualcomm SDM660 Snapdragon 660 GPU: Adreno 512 Memory: 6GB RAM Colours: Black, Silver Dimension: 151.4 x 71.8 x 8.5 mm Weight: 168g SIM Type: Nano SIM SIM Count: Dual SIM Display Display: 4.5-inch, IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen, 1620 x 1080 pixels (432 ppi) Screen Protection: Corning Gorilla Glass 3 Camera Rear Camera: Dual 12MP + 12MP camera, 2160@30fps, 1080p Video@30fps Rear Camera Features: Autofocus, LED flash, Geo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, panorama Front Camera: 8MP camera, 10800p Video@30fps Storage Built-in Storage: 64GB/128GB Memory Card Support: Yes, up to 256GB Bundled Cloud Storage: – Network Support 2G GSM: Yes 2G CDMA 1X: – 3G WCDMA: Yes 3G CDMA EVDO: – 4G LTE: LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 13(700), 17(700), 19(800), 20(800), 26(850), 28(700), 32(1500), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500) Internet & Connectivity GPRS: Yes EDGE: Yes 3G/WCDMA/HSPA: Yes HSPA+: Yes CDMA EVDO: – 4G LTE: Yes WLAN: Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, WiFi Direct Wi-Fi Hotspot: Yes Bluetooth: Yes, v5.0 with A2DP, LE, EDR NFC: – Infrared Blaster: – USB Port: USB Type-C 3.1 Messaging SMS/MMS: Yes Instant Messaging: Yes Push Emails: Yes Email Protocol: – Entertainment Music Player: MP3/AAC+/WAV/Flac player Video Player: MP4/H.264 player FM Radio: Yes Loudspeaker: Yes 3.5mm Jack: Yes Navigation Navigation: Yes, with A-GPS, GLONASS, BDS2 Maps: Yes Sensors & Control Digital Compass: Yes Accelerometer: Yes Proximity Sensor: Yes Light Sensor: Yes Barometer: – SpO2: – Pedometer: – Heart Rate Monitor: – Gyroscope: Yes Fingerprint Scanner: Yes, (front) Iris Scanner: – Face Unlock: Yes Intelligent Digital Assistant: – Motion Sensing / Gesture Control: – Voice Control: – Other Features Video Streaming: Yes Active Noise Cancellation: Yes Wireless Charging: – Built-in Mobile Payment: – Water Resistant: – Dust Resistant: – Image Editor: Yes Video Editor: Yes Document Viewer: Yes Document Editor: Yes Battery Battery: 3, 500mAh non removable Li-Ion battery Talktime: – Standby Time: – Fast Charging: YesThe post BlackBerry Key2 Specs and Price appeared first on Nigeria Technology Guide.
The mid-range category is the most competitive market at the moment which is why Sony has dimmed it fit to update their mid-range Xperia line with the Sony Xperia XA2 Plus release. Like the others, the smartphone maintains a similar build except for the change in aspect ratio to 18:9 as well as the same set of chipset. An addition worthy of mention is the high-resolution audio feature that improves music experience on the smartphone. Besides this, there is really no significant upgrade to be mentioned.
Despite its slender look, the Sony Xperia XA2 has a rectangular look mostly because of not too curved edges. The smartphone is made of metal which according to Sony is a diamond cut material. It also features the latest trends like minimal bezel at the side but has a rather obnoxious top and bottom bezel. In comparison to other XA2 series, the smartphone is a tad thicker and weighs more probably due to the additional features put in.
Nothing changes regarding the display relative to the other Xperia XA2 models with just about the same size and resolution. In case you are a big screen fan, the smartphone will sooth you well with a convenient 6.0-inch of LCD sporting a 2160 x 1080 pixels resolution. The display has an added protection with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 covering the entire screen.
Battery and CameraYou would be able to enjoy a long time of usage on the Sony Xperia XA2 with the decent capacity it carries and powering the specs it comes with should be no problem. That being said, the smartphone ships with a non-removable 3, 580mAh battery and Quick Charge 3.0 which is said to give you hours of battery life in minutes.
Sony is well known for its good cameras and the Xperia XA2 does not disappoint in this aspect either. The back panel has a large-sized 23MP camera which is capable of capturing 4K videos and also comes with the ‘bokeh effect’ as well as a number of other interesting features. On the front yard, you’ve got a wide-angle 8MP camera that also boasts of background blurring making your portrait shots more beautiful.
Hardware and SoftwareAt the core, driving the different functions on the smartphone is the same processor present in the Xperia XA2 and XA2 Ultra. The smartphone is having a Qualcomm SDM630 Snapdragon 630 processor together with an Adreno 508 GPU for managing graphics which includes how good gaming will be on your smartphone.
This is one of those smartphones with two variants and in this case, the RAM and storage space makes them different. There is one with a 4GB/32GB combination while the other has 6GB/64GB both expandable to 400GB of storage space. The smartphone comes with some pre-installed apps, an indication that the Android 8.0 Oreo is not a stock OS.
Sony Xperia XA2 Plus Pricing and AvailabilityThe smartphone will go on sale for about 145, 000 Naira from online stores and smartphone retail outlets depending on your location and the deal.
Here are a few specs of the Sony Xperia XA2 Plus:
General Features Platform: Android 8.0 Oreo Processor: Octa-core Qualcomm SDM630 Snapdragon 630 GPU: Adreno 508 Memory: 4GB/6GB RAM Colours: Silver, Black, Gold, Green Dimension: 157 x 75 x 9.6 mm Weight: 205g SIM Type: Nano SIM SIM Count: Dual SIM Display Display: 6.0-inch, IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen, 1080 x 2160 pixels (402 ppi) Screen Protection: Corning Gorilla Glass 3 Camera Rear Camera: 23MP camera, 2160@30fps, 1080p Video@30fps Rear Camera Features: Autofocus, LED flash, Geo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, panorama Front Camera: 8MP camera, 10800p Video@30fps Storage Built-in Storage: 32GB/64GB Memory Card Support: Yes, up to 400GB Bundled Cloud Storage: – Network Support 2G GSM: Yes 2G CDMA 1X: – 3G WCDMA: Yes 3G CDMA EVDO: – 4G LTE: Yes Internet & Connectivity GPRS: Yes EDGE: Yes 3G/WCDMA/HSPA: Yes HSPA+: 42.2/5.76 Mbps CDMA EVDO: – 4G LTE: LTE-A (3CA) Cat 12 600/150Mbps WLAN: Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, WiFi Direct Wi-Fi Hotspot: Yes Bluetooth: Yes, v5.0 with A2DP, LE, AptX NFC: – Infrared Blaster: – USB Port: USB Type-C 3.1 Messaging SMS/MMS: Yes Instant Messaging: Yes Push Emails: Yes Email Protocol: – Entertainment Music Player: MP3/AAC+/WAV/Flac player Video Player: MP4/H.264 player FM Radio: Yes Loudspeaker: Yes 3.5mm Jack: Yes Navigation Navigation: Yes, with A-GPS, GLONASS, BDS Maps: Yes Sensors & Control Digital Compass: Yes Accelerometer: Yes Proximity Sensor: Yes Light Sensor: Yes Barometer: – SpO2: – Pedometer: – Heart Rate Monitor: – Gyroscope: Yes Fingerprint Scanner: Yes, (rear) Iris Scanner: – Face Unlock: Yes Intelligent Digital Assistant: – Motion Sensing / Gesture Control: – Voice Control: – Other Features Video Streaming: Yes Active Noise Cancellation: Yes Wireless Charging: – Built-in Mobile Payment: – Water Resistant: – Dust Resistant: – Image Editor: Yes Video Editor: Yes Document Viewer: Yes Document Editor: Yes Battery Battery: 3, 580mAh non removable Li-Ion battery Talktime: – Standby Time: – Fast Charging: YesThe post Sony Xperia XA2 Plus Specs and Price appeared first on Nigeria Technology Guide.
