How to check if your driving license is ready for collection – Kenya

You can now check if your driving license is ready for collection by using your interim driving license number via the KRA RTD – Driving license Checker. Let’s say you’ve gone through the usual vigorous driving lessons, perhaps every day in the evening, nothing comes as rewarding as getting the actual license. Nowadays, it doesn’t take as long as it used to, but it still helps to have an idea of just the perfect time to go for collection.

By definition, a Kenyan driving license is an official acknowledgement by the relevant authority that someone has gone through and passed the necessary exams. It therefore allows someone to drive a motor vehicle of any class on Kenyan roads. This license is applied for and as such, it can be invalidated by the relevant authority. Kenyan driving licenses are usually renewed after a specified period after payment of a set fee.

Samsung Galaxy Z2 Review, Tizen OS and 4G Connectivity for only Ksh 5,999 (USD 55) in Kenya

Samsung Galaxy Z2 Review, Tizen OS and 4G Connectivity for only Ksh 5,999 (USD 55) in Kenya

Away from the usual android, windows and perhaps iOS powered devices, Samsung has introduced an affordable Galaxy Z2 device running purely on its Tizen operating system. The device comes a time when android and iOS have made major strides in consumer penetration, though we’d be cautious to have a reasonable comparison against it, at least for now. There’s no question to whether it’ll be a decent alternative to the two major smartphone operating systems, as the Galaxy Z2 barely has what you’d call flagship specifications. For the same reason, I’m determined to give it a fair shot with regard to specs against similarly priced android phones. From a general perspective, everything looks like a typical android device until you get on the user interface and the software.

Design Overview

Unlike what we’d expect from a flagship device, there’s not much to say about Samsung Galaxy Z2, it’s designed to be affordable. The feel doesn’t come close to the likes of Galaxy S7 but it has the price tag on its advantage. We got one with a gold cover, though you’ve got two other options to select from; black and red. In total, you’ve got a reasonable choice of three colors accentuated by the polished metal. I liked the patterned back texture, it comes in handy especially in avoiding accidental drop. With reasonable amount of care, Samsung Galaxy Z2 will last a tad longer, especially since its anti-slip (patterned back) makes it impossible to easily slip from your hands.

Cameras and Photography

Basic as it may seem, you’d still achieve viewable photos taken from the primary 5Megapixel camera, otherwise I had rather difficult time getting decent images on the font facing VGA snapper. Photos can be capture in different modes i.e. Beauty, pro and night for those who’d like to have a specific touch on various occasions.

Display Panel

Samsung Galaxy Z2 features a rather small display panel at only 4.0inch with basic screen resolution of 800x480pixels. I would have wished for at least 720p display especially in modern times.

Performance and Storage

The internal storage space is capped at 8GB though expandable up to 200GB. It comes with 1GB internal space which I’m still skeptical if it’ll run just as fine as iOS. Android is not very good on software optimization in RAM usage but I’m hopeful Tizen will just be fine. With 4G connectivity, it was a breeze browsing on this device.

Samsung Galaxy Z2 Specifications;

  • Screen Size: 4.0 Inch (800X480) Touchscreen
  • Internal Memory & RAM: 1GB RAM, 8GB ROM (expandable with microSD up to 200GB)
  • Processor Speed: 1.5GHz Quad-core Cortex
  • Operating System: Tizen Version 2.4
  • Camera: 8MP Back Camera, 0.3MP Front Camera
  • Battery: 1500mAh

Currently, this device is available in Kenya and can be ordered from a local online retailer or Safaricom shop for only Kshs. 5,999 (USD 55)

Infinix Hot S (X521) Review, Specs, Price and how to get it in Kenya

Perfect selfies are the least of most wanted or coveted features in a modern smartphone but it’s a good leverage especially in a crowded market. The Infinix host S has a comparatively excellent front facing camera, just perfect for those selfies. Whether it’s enough to win over majority of consumers is any ones guess, all I know at least for now is; with an 8Megapixels shooter, selfies taken on this device will be just as good. For a start, I must comment Infinix mobile for various reasons; they’ve managed to penetrate a rather unpredictable Kenyan market juts when the likes of Tecno and Huawei were making milestones in popularity. Secondly, features customized specifically to an average smartphone phone consumer without overpricing was a well thought strategy – I got mine at Kshs. 13,700 (USD 130), they’ve an appreciable support as well.

TECNO Phantom 6 Review, Price and how to get it in Kenya

A good fight – that’s what I’d summarize on my personal view regarding Tecno mobile’s performance in Kenya. The phone maker has had its fair share of misfortunes as well as pretty amazing reception on the local market. From the initial tecno phone with minimal specs to the latest flagship with what I’d call somehow heavyweight enclosures; but is it enough in modern days? I decided to pick one of the Phantom 6 from a local online retail shop for Kshs. 24,300 (USD 240) and did my own test drive. It’s a good phone – I’d hardly dispute, but in modern times, there are countless devices that are just as good or even better. For the sake of fairness, I’ll approach the TECNO Phantom 6 with an open mind in regards to pricing, support and of course specs.
