Walka 7 and iDrifta Launched In Nigeria

On the 20^th of September DStv Mobile Nigeria officially launched its rumoured handheld television the Walka 7, the second instalment of the “Walka” series and the “iDrifta” the third instalment of the “Drifta” series.

The Walka 7 improves on the original Walka – packing a 200% larger screen while iDrifta is a specialized version of the Drifta adapted for iOS devices. The event was held at the Civic Centre, in Victoria Island, Lagos.

The iDrifta went on sale from the 12^th of September and retails for NGN 9,500 (Nine thousand Five Hundred Naira), while the Walka 7 was available on the shelves that very same day for NGN 18,900 (Eighteen Thousand Nine hundred Thousand Naira). The original Walka which was introduced earlier this year retails for NGN 17,500 (Seventeen Thousand Five Hundred Naira) so that's less than a NGN 1,500 (One Thousand Five Hundred Naira) difference. We are not sure if this is a special launch price or its actual retail price, but if it is maybe the Walka 7 may not have that much to offer.
