By September 2017, it will be available in Nigeria for N13,000. Is it
worth it?
worth it?
Of course. For that price…I say a big yes
Not bad at all. Keep up d good work prof…
Wow. God bless them. I believe everyone will buy it so they will make it.
the price fits it though
It worth it. The spec is on par and even better than some local brand that are in same class.
I hope it doesn't cost beyond 13k
It's worth it. I hope the price doesn't get increased by the time the release it.
Totally worth the price with those specs. If Google is partnering with fretel to produce the device does it mean the device will run on the stock Android OS and get updates easily?
Yes prof
nice price, nice specs. thank u Google
Now, this one has my vote! ?
Google! Bring it on!
It is worth it
Let them come I am going to buy two..?
It worths it if it has otg function
can't wait to get it
