The Infinix Hot 6 Pro is the latest device from the company to be launched in Kenya. The phone is the first device we are seeing from the company in the country this year and is currently available for Ksh 13,699 for the 2GB model and Ksh 15,699 for the 3GB model. Both phones are available exclusively on Kilimall but you will be able to get it from other online and offline stores very soon. I have a review unit of the Infinix Hot 6 Pro and in this post I will be unboxing it and giving you and idea…

A couple of weeks back, I told you about the Infinix Hot 6 Pro, the company’s soon-to-be launched smartphone. Infinix has been teasing this smartphone that we should be seeing in the country very soon. It will have an 18:9 aspect ratio and will be powered by a Snapdragon processor and this will be the perfect opportunity for the company to give its fans a different product from what we they are used to seeing. When writing the first post, I did not have details or the price and the specifications but this has changed today. The phone is up…

Telkom Kenya has been aggressively pushing its data products and I thought it is a good idea to list down the Telkom Kenya data bundles and their validity period for those who may be interested. Telkom Kenya has 4G coverage in certain parts of this country and it’s a serious competitor to Safaricom in the data department. For a very long time, Safaricom had better speeds and coverage given that its main competitor, Airtel, had not rolled out 4G in Kenya. Telkom Kenya data bundles are meant to be affordable compared to Safaricom as the company sees this as the…

Telkom Kenya (TKL) and American Tower Corporation (ATC) today announced that they have reached a definitive agreement for ATC to acquire up to 723 towers from TKL in Kenya. Telkom Kenya’s Board Chair, Eddy Njoroge stated that TKL was delighted to have signed the agreement with ATC and looked forward to a close collaboration between the two companies. “The Board of TKL has made it clear that our objective is to transform Telkom into a business which has a reputation for excellence in terms of the quality and reliability of its network. This agreement, in which we will be partnering…

As it has been said before, it’s better late that never. This should be the case for smartphone manufacturers when it comes to the latest Android updates but its is not always that way. I would rather get the update late than get any at all and I am forced to buy a new phone just to experience the latest updates from Google. Huawei is not one company known for timely updates but it does update most of its flagship device with the latest Android variants from time to time. Back in October, the company announced plans to roll out…

If you like multitasking or you switch between different applications more than the average person, then you know that the experience is never smooth when you are on YouTube. As soon as you leave the app, the video pauses and you will have to go back and tap on play to continue. This sort of changed with Android Oreo with the introduction of picture-in-picture mode, a feature that allows you to continue playing the video as you switch to a different app. In this case, the YouTube player is minimized to small window tucked away to a corner letting you…

We are in 2018 and you would think that as humans we have learnt how to handle disagreements in a civil manner. Well, this is how it should happen but we still get people with tendencies that make you question how they interact with people around them. This is even worse in a professional setting where a CEO, manager or any person in authority treats junior colleagues with disrespect and in a demeaning manner. This is exactly what happened recently when a top executive at OPPO Kenya went ballistic on an employee. I found out about this yesterday when I…

When it comes to buying a new smartphone, not everyone is able or is willing to spend so much money on one device. Some people are just looking for a basic smartphone that can do the simple tasks without any complicated or advanced features. From time to time, I get questions about the cheapest smartphone that someone can buy. If you are one such person, this post will list down five smartphones under Ksh 5,000 that you can get in Kenya right now. Most of the smartphones listed here are available on Jumia and I have included a link to…

The Samsung Galaxy S9+ is the latest flagship smartphone from the Korean manufacturer to land in Kenya. This is the successor to the Galaxy S8+ we saw in 2017. The Galaxy S8+ is still a good and relevant phone so when reviewing the Galaxy S9+, I was interested to see what it has to offer and if it something worth buying considering the fact that the Galaxy S8+ and even the Galaxy Note 8 smartphones are still around and are available at reasonable prices right now. I have been using the Galaxy S9+ for a little over a month and…

At its 2018 F8 developer conference, Facebook announced that WhatsApp users will now be able to make group calls. This is one of the two features coming to WhatsApp, the other one is all about stickers as they seem to be popular in almost every other social networking site out there. WhatsApp group calling will be able to accommodate up to four people at a go. It uses the same video calling feature available on WhatsApp and takes it to a new level by allowing more people to join in. If you have always wanted to have a group video…
