Do You Know That Infinix And iTel Phones Are Owned By Tecno Mobile?

October 05, 2015

I know many people reading this will argue but
the fact is that virtually all phones bearing Infinix
or iTel as its name are managed by Tecno
mobile. So the guys in charge at Tecno mobile
are not really concerned what you think about
them like many customers persisting they won't
buy the new Flagship Phantom 5 because of the
outrageous price. The reality is that even the
Infinix smartphones that is highly rated by phone
users of recent is also managed by Tecno.

Checkout the an excerpt from an article written
March 4, 2013 by Mr Mobility of Mobilityarena
"...Tecno and Carlware make up a conglomerate
mobile brand called Infinix. The Infinix brand
produces and sells self-branded android
smartphones…"

Wait, there are other proves like this other excerpt
from an article Sept 15, 2015 by same author
… Whether you buy a TECNO phone or an Infinix
phone, your cash ends up in the same coffers. In
other words, they are siblings. TECNO and Infinix
have the same parent company.

The strategy at work is that Infinix addresses the
budget end of the smartphone market (the bottom
of the pyramid), while TECNO makes a pitch for
the high end.

TECNO and Infinix are not competitors. They are
two sides of a coin targeting two different
segments.

Another excerpt from an article written Nov 2014
by Seyi Albert of Thebleet
… It paid off for Tecno and more opportunities
were even spotted. Soon, there was speculation
that Tecno had acquired a part of Mobiwire, a
company that is an offshoot of Sagetel (Sagem
Mobile's Manufacturing plant). The company is
today called Infinix Mobility, and the goal was
simple. Tecno was to service from Lower end up,
while Infinix did Mid range down, taking up two
disparate markets. The Infinix name is in fact
axiomatic to be more high end.

If you had checked TecnoTelecom.com before it
was redirected to Tecno-Mobile.com, you'd have
noticed a portfolio widget by the footer that
included Infinix as one of the brands owned by
Tecno. So it is like the Toyota-Lexus/Honda-
Acura/Nissan-Infiniti plot. The later is the high
end or luxury version of the former.

So why are we still complaining about Tecno
when they are applying a secret strategy that
many customers are not aware of. This means
that your Infinix Hot Note, Hot Note Pro, Infinix
Hot 2 and many others including itel devices are
managed and controlled by the Tecno we rain
abuse on.

Now that you know that Infinix and itel devices
are from Tecno mobile, will you also continue
devaluing your awesome hot note pro?
