Since the beginning of the year, Infinix has not launched a new smartphone in Kenya until now. The Infinix Hot S3 that was unveiled in other countries never made its way to Kenya. With that said, those who have been waiting for a new smartphone from Infinix are in luck as the company has finally unveiled the Hot 6 Pro in the country. The Infinix Hot 6 Pro is available in two variants one with 2GB of RAM and 16GB storage space and the other one with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage space. The two phones are available…

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…

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…
