Xiaomi couldn’t have wished for better timing of two reports that claim it has toppled Samsung to become India’s top-selling smartphone company. The Chinese firm, which is reportedly on a roadshow ahead of an IPO that could value it as high as $100 billion, is said to have beaten Samsung ’s sales efforts in India, the world’s second-largest smartphone market behind China, according to new data from Canalys and Counterpoint. Data from both analyst houses gave Xiaomi a narrow lead over Samsung in the final quarter of 2017, with 27 percent and 25 percent, respectively, according to Canalys — and 25 percent versus 23 percent, according to Counterpoint. Counterpoint included year-long figures, which conclude that Samsung (24 percent) is ahead of Xiaomi (19 percent) over the longer timeframe. A glance at the previous year’s figures shows that Xiaomi has closed what was once a significant gap with its rival. It’s also striking just how dominant the pair are. Together they account f

Zinox Group, one of Africa’s biggest technology group has acquired e-commerce platform, Konga.com which remains one of the biggest players in the sector; KOS-Express, the world class logistics arm of the business and KongaPay, the company’s integrated mobile money payment channel with over 100,000 subscribers.

Head of Corporate Communications, Zinox Group, Mr. Gideon Ayogu confirmed the development, said; “Konga is a world-class, professionally-run company whose landmark strides in the sector has gone a long way in ushering millions of Nigerians into the ease and convenience of online shopping and

We experience a range of emotions, including road rage, fatigue and even excitement when driving a car. Now, Ford has developed a car that can read these emotions, and display them on the vehicle. Working with Designworks, Ford created the  Buzz Car , a customised Ford Focus RS incorporating wearable and artificial intelligence technology. The driver wears two sensors on the wrists, one that monitors heart rate, and the other which measures the skin response. Every time the sensors detect a  buzz moment’ i.e when the driver is excited and their heart rate increases , a dazzling light display appears across both the interior and exterior of the car. According to their results, driving sports car gives a 2.1 high-intensity buzz moments, which is more emotional than cheering your favorite football team, watching a “Game of Thrones” episode, and even a passionate kiss with a loved one. Ford says only riding a roller coaster with its occasional highs delivers more buzz moments.

Nigerians React As Peugeot Celebrates 50 Years Of Legend 504 (Photos) Fifty years ago a car was launched that heralded the birth of the stylish, high quality cars that Peugeot is famous for today. The Peugeot 504 is a mid-size, front-engine, rear wheel drive automobile manufactured and marketed by Peugeot for model years 1968-1983 over a single generation, primarily in four-door sedan and wagon configurations — but also with two-door coupe, convertible and pickup truck variants. The 504 was noted for its robust body structure, long suspension travel, and torque tube drive shaft — enclosed in a rigid tube attached at each end to the gearbox housing and differential casing, relieving drive train torque reactions. The 504 ultimately achieved widespread popularity in far-flung rough-terrain countries — including Brazil, Argentina, Australia, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Cameroon, Benin, Kenya and Nigeria. More than three million 504s were manufactured in its European production, with pro

If you’re an active mobile phone user, you will notice that your phone can actually make emergency calls without any SIM. I know you must be wondering how this is possible since there’s no mobile number. Let me explain how your SIM works. SIM as you ought to know stands for Subscriber Identification Module and it helps to identify the cell service subscriber that is trying to connect to the network. Every user has their own SIM, so network providers can direct calls to that specific phone and track usage (and charges) individually. The identifying number of a SIM card is called an ICCID. Emergency Numbers: 122 and 199

The Chief Executive Officer, CEO, of Samsung Electronics Africa, Mr. Sung Yoon, on Thursday disclosed that manufacturing a mobile phone required about 400 different components, none of which is available in Nigeria. Speaking during an interactive session with journalists in Lagos, he stated that another reasons Samsung Electronics could not establish a manufacturing plant in Nigeria is because the company’s market share in the country is not big enough. Yoon pointed out that though Samsung was the leading consumer electronics company in Nigeria, its share of the Nigerian market is smaller to South Africa’s. He said that the company’s smartphones market size in South Africa is 80 per cent, but is lower in Nigeria…

The Apple iPhone Xmade its debut during the fourth quarter of 2017. The tenth anniversary model launched during the first week of November, which helped Apple's U.S. market share rise sequentially by 10 percentage points during the last three months of the year. For the period, the iPhone saw its share of the stateside smartphone market rise to 39% from 29% during the third quarter. On a year-over-year basis, the iPhone's Q4 market share was up 5 percentage points (17%) from the 34% it achieved in Q4 2016.

Much of Apple's strong fourth quarter can be credited to the new iPhone X, which has increased the rate at which Android users switch to iOS, and the rate of iPhone upgrades by existing users.

​ In Turkmenistan , a country wedged between Iran, Afghanistan, and Uzbekistan,drivers don’t get to choose the color of their cars. Their president chooses for them. After first implementing a stop on importation of black cars into Turkmenistan in 2015, President Kurbanguly Berdymukhamedov has now banned all black cars throughout the country’s capital, Ashgabat, from January 2018 forward. For the last few weeks, dark coloured vehicles have been seized by police because the country’s president considers white to be lucky. He is a known lover of white, living in a white palace and travelling in white limousines in line with his belief the colour brings good fortune. To retrieve their cars, their owners are reportedly required to sign a document agreeing to respray the paint in a lighter color. This order from the federal government immediately increased the prices of the local auto body shops from about $500 for a full car respray to $1,000 and more, in a count

Smart speakers will be the fastest-growing new category of technology in 2018, according to research by analytics firm Canalys. Smart speaker sales will beat sales of wearables, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) devices, three of the commonly named technologies previously said to grow fast in a maturing smartphone market.

The world's most popular streaming service Spotify has announced that it has added 10 million paying subscribers in the last six months and now has a total of 70 million paying subs. Unlike Apple Music, Spotify also offers free, ad-monetized music streaming. It has more than 70 million subscribers using that free service, so counting the two types of Spotify listeners together, the service now has over 140 million total subs. Apple Music, in comparison, last reported having 30 million subscribers in September 2017, all of them paying a monthly fee. Spotify charges its premium users a flat, $10 monthly fee for music streaming, the same as other major services like Apple Music, Tidal and Deezer. Spotify, however, also offers discounts for some users like students, and it has a neat Spotify Family service that allows signing up to 6 people on the same account for just $15 a month. The company is also now preparing for an initial public offering (IPO). It has conf

Google has had a busy 2017 and artificial intelligence (AI) has been the keyword for the company this year. With the Google Assistant at the core of two new Pixel phones and a huge push for the smart home with the Google Home, AI is now at the very core of Google products for the year. The big benefits of AI came to fruition in the Pixel 2's excellent camera that takes computationally-enhanced photos that rival the best out there, but apps like Google Photos and many others including search are better because of AI. So what will Google be up to in 2018? We want the company to do better in a few key areas and these are our top 10 wishes for Google and Android in 2018.  Go back to leading rather than following Ever since Google introduced the futuristic and spectacularly failed Google Glass wearable, it seems that the company has taken a bit of a back seat when it comes to leading in the mobile device space.
