Please Help Me Decide

Hello Aunty Eya, please I need the help of WC blog readers. I’m trying to upgrade myself guys, want an improvement on
my image, but not without some  confusion in my head.

I am one careless I don’t care lady who has never bought an expensive phone her whole life, I always ask why should I spend a fortune on a mobile phone when I can make and receive calls, chat and even download with my Nokia C3 and a memory card?

 Friends and family tried in vain to talk me into getting a better phone but I no send. I’m getting married this year and I think there is need for an upgrade. I hear “we are addressed according to how we dress” I want to be respected and treated like a thick madam.

Right now, I have decided on my own to get myself a good phone as my birthday present but there is some confusion. Friends are not helping matters as they all try to persuade me to get their different kinds. I have no idea of the differences between good mobile phones, I tried to Google but their reviews are just too many and confusing too.

Right now I have two phones in mind; The Nokia Lumia and Samsung Galaxy. I love to take pictures and would like a phone that can give me great pics. Between these two phones, can you help me make up my mind please? I know the Nokia Lumia is good, I know Nokia for Durability (never bought another brand ever since GSM was introduced in Nigeria). I remember my Nokia phone falling from the roof of my speeding car and still performing maximally after that. I also remember how my nokia phone dropped in a bowl of water and still came out strong and healthy.

For Samsung Galaxy, I am so intrigued by the size, I like when I see people make calls with such beaurriful flat big screen phone. It looks so posh to me, could be because I love big phones. Again, I hear there are so many types of Samsung Galaxy. I don’t know which is best for what among the many types. 

Can you please put this up so that people who have used these two phones or any can help me get a clearer picture of what they do differently that makes each unique. I have used Nokia all my life, without even a discount sef. It won’t be bad to try something different but I really want to know what I’m getting before I go pick. Anyway, my birthday comes up on Sunday and I would love to get me my Present before then.

Guys and experienced Mobile phone users, what do you think is great about NOKIA LUMIA OR SAMSUNG GALAXY PHONES?
Help a confused sister out please…

  1. You can buy the Galaxy S3 or S4. Note that Samsung phones are not as durable as Nokia. I acted drama with them for months here when my Galaxy of less than 4 months stopped working. Although I was given a new one after about 5 months, it stopped recognizing my sim after a month. So I dint bother going back to them.

    I dnt know about Nokia Lumia but I am an android lover so I'll advice you go for Samsung. It does more and is cheaper than it's iPhone mates.

    You can also buy the Nexus 4. It's Android also and made by LG for Google Nexus. In fact, I'll advice you buy it instead of Samsung. It's sleek too so u still get the efizy you want. And it has everything a Nexus 7 has plus the phone part so it's a good deal.

    However, upgrading urself is not by phone alone o. I have seen girls carrying expensive BlackBerrys (or is it BlackBerries?), anyway, bcos of their personality, I dnt like the phone, never used one.

    The phone does not make you, you make the phone. Meaning, if you work on ur personality and package, even if you carry Bonario's 3310, the phone will look like iPhone 7… Lol

    But being conversant with latest technologies is part of the upgraded personality sha.

  3. @ bloggers forgive me but one day it will be "pls help me decide what color of pant to wear", "pls help me decide on the route to take, ajegunle or 3MB"
    My point is, as much as we here can help u @poster decide, this is smthg that can be done amongst family and mayb friends or even u urself. U can google the two fones and see the revies yourself then make the decision. I don't think every mundane issue should be tabled before WC. Simples!

  10. When I saw the title of this post, I thought it had to do with personality and outlook perception but going further, the koko was about "Phone Choice".

    Poster, I guess you didn't enter the appropriate words on Google to help alleviate the confusion you're facing.

    Something like: "which is better in taking quality pictures, Nokia Lumia or Samsung Galaxy?"
    would have saved you this stress.

    After I googled that, these are some of the links I got:
    1. http://smartphones.techcrunch.com/compare/357-427/Nokia-Lumia-920-vs-Samsung-Galaxy-S4
    2. http://smartphones.techcrunch.com/compare/245-250/Samsung-Galaxy-S3-vs-Nokia-Lumia-610
    3. http://smartphones.techcrunch.com/compare/356-357/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-II-vs-Nokia-Lumia-920

    There are many more, just take your time to compare and contrast and choose the phone model that "fits your PERSONALITY". Ciao

  14. Haba now??? This is not nice! She said she had already checked google and the reviews were so many and confusing. And the people around her are persuading her to get different kinds.

    Ppl are going as far as calling it a mumu post. No I don't think its a "mumu" post. She needed help deciding and decided to bring it here cus she felt she would get some good advice. And if aunty eya felt it was a "mumu" post she wouldn't have put it up. Its not by force to comment now?! If u feel its not relevant,you could have just ignored it and moved on instead of being mean with your comments.

    Please o,let us be civil on this blog. Its bad enough that u go to some other blogs and there a lot of bullies and vicious comments there;and then you come to a blog like this that caters to what I believe is an adult and mature audience and this is happening here.

    Pretty soon people are going to stop asking for advice or giving advice on this blog,because the tone of the comments on this blog this days is getting very mean spirited. Please and please,Let us be civil.

    We don't have to agree all the time but we can be civil and mature about it! Thanks!
