Screen to body with camera features is super killing but As far as I'm concerned it's still 1gm Ram to power 32gb Rom. How do you expect 8gb ram to power 256gb Rom on a MTK and run smoothly without any lagging. You guys really need to upgrade.

        cozxta, 11 Jul 2021I don't think they can be successful in Brazil, not no... moreOf course it will take time for them to set up a strong presence in Brazil but sooner or later they will make it even if it implies assembling phones (like in Ethiopia) to get taxes exemption from the government.
        They're very patient when it's about conquering emerging markets with a very strong potential of growth.
        They have recently toppled Samsung in Africa in terms of units shipped and sold.

          Rbx, 11 Jul 2021Tecno is present in Colombia, Venezuela, Bolivia and Peru m... moreI don't think they can be successful in Brazil, not now, not soon, only 3 companies are really big and have a name here, those are Samsung, Motorola and Apple, the first two can offer low prices for their phones because they assemble their phones in the country, thus they have financial benefits from the government.
          The rest of South America, they may be successful, but Brazil is too difficult for a new company to establish itself, taxes are way too high and there's too much bureaucracy.

          Realme is the newest company here, they will need to do a lot of work and spend a lot in marketing to take only a small piece of Samsung and Motorola market share here.

            cozxta, 11 Jul 2021No, you aren't Brazilian for saying such wrong things,... moreTecno is present in Colombia, Venezuela, Bolivia and Peru markets although still unknown in Brazil but it's just a matter of time before they set up a strong commercial presence in Latin America countries like they did in Africa, Middle East and Southern Asia.
            I'm not South American but I can understand your irritation about such ignorants and their negative stereotypes towards what they call the "third world" (Latin America, Africa, Middle East, Southern Asia)....They strongly believe that only consumers from western countries are up to date in terms of quality, value and performance....Only them can recognize a worthy smartphone,
            Their condescending and arrogant comments are matched only by their profound ignorance of the rest of the world because for them the world is limited to their borders, the rest doesn't "exist".

              Wereweeb, 11 Jul 2021Lmao no. This is garbage directed at low-volume high-margin... moreAlso, let me tell you something, here in Brazil you can buy a Galaxy S20 FE with 256GB/8GB setup for about U$380, which is way cheaper than the prices in Euro or Dollar, so don't come here saying shit you don't know about Brazil, which is 5 largest smartphone market in the world, I'm sorry to bust your bubble.

              These crap phones and brands aren't even known in Latin America.
              And for you basically calling all Latin American countries third world, shows me that you know nothing about South American countries, cultures and demographics.

                  Wereweeb, 11 Jul 2021Lmao no. This is garbage directed at low-volume high-margin... moreNo, you aren't Brazilian for saying such wrong things, I'm Brazilian, with 180 dollars you can perfectly buy a good phone with at least 4GB RAM and octa core processors, LG phones were never successful here, most popular brands here are Samsung, Motorola, Apple, Xiaomi and now Realme, nothing more.
                  Also, Brazil is an emerging country, not third world, get your facts right.

                    Lmao no. This is garbage directed at low-volume high-margin third world countries, mainly Africa and Latin America. For y'all to have an idea, there are still 720p+quad A53+2GB RAM LG phones being sold for up to $180 in Brazil.

                    All phones dumped in these markets are the garbage they wouldn't dare to sell anywhere that there's competition.

                    Plus, "good enough camera" doesn't translate to "good value".

                        Anonymous, 11 Jul 2021It seems that some survey bots did a good job. lolExactly majority of votes were No until recently lol. Even in review some bots without commenting history are commenting now praising that phone.

                          The only thing bout this phone that's not so great is the chipset
                          Aside that
                          It's a big time competitor

                              Only reason companies release their "priciest phone yet" is to check how far people would go. And apparently they go too far. With all brands.

                                      overpriced piece of crap.
                                      same price with an I-Phone X.
                                      more expensive than the Samsung galaxy A71, A82, A52, S9, & Note 9....which are all phones better than it.

                                        Xylem Everglow, 11 Jul 2021The phone is really great but it's the processor that&... moreYeah, even Mi 10T Pro came around the same price league with much better specs.
