OK seriously, I am absolutely stunned by these two phones, their specs r awesome, and both fit my demands,I'm a gamer,I play a lot of high end games, mc5 being top priority right now...these two devices I know will perform... But am confused... A super charged mali450mp4 @ 700mhz as seen on the zero 2 coupled wit its 2ghz Octa core sounds like enough horse power to drive a power station, the Mali 450mp4 isn't the best out there,but for the gamed available now,it gets the job done,on the other hand, camon c8 flaunts a 64Bit quad core @ 1.3ghz,yeah ,slower clock wise,but 64bit?..that's like double what d former can provide, although here I think its a tie,d zero 2 has more cores and higher clock speeds,d c8 has raw power on its side, to compliment, we have a Mali t720 GPU in there..that's openGL 3.0 ,openCL compliance here, that's future proof...the games of today don't use all that much,but come 2016 mobile gaming is gonna boom graphically, devs are going crazy at next gen...... So d question is,for a gamer like me(BTW starting a YouTube channel for android gaming soon,stay tuned) what device do I use?

What would you advice?


Do u own any of the above? What are your experiences?


Ops..zero 2,not hot 2...sorry

Bro, both uses d same chipset but I will advice u to buy hot 2. because its an Android one device... Its has 2gb of ram variant thats also an edge in gaming and it will get update frm google for d next 3yrs. Android 6.0 is coming out in coming weeks and u are sure of getting even bfor the galaxy S6 and other high-end fones. Tecno don't always update their devices imagine their flagship Phantom Z hasn't receive a lollipop yet.. Camera and UI wise C8 is better. Battery wise C8 is better too. But battery is not the issue with a good powerbank. Am a gamer too and in my own opinion i would say u should buy hot 2 and it lesser in price.. Thanks hope i help..

from my own little understanding about processor and gpu for gaming, i will prefer C8 to Zero 2.. 64bit processor is d deal and d gpu in C8 mali720 has open GL 3.0 which is not in mali 450mp4... Octa-core is useless when it comes to gaming

All these fuss about getting Android updates till next 3 yrs even before other high end phones might not be completely true. Cos if you read that statement from Google on the launch of this Android one thing, there was a disclaimer that the update would come based on Infinix's schedule. I think we should all understand this.

bro is google that is in-charge of d Android One OS, it's just like d Nexus devices... So tell me why Nexus devices won't get update bfor others... There are other Android One devices around d world.. Updating the OS is from google not Infinix bro

Did I ever say that Infinix is in charge of the update?Google will release it and you'll get it when Infinix rolls it out, meaning it won't be as fast as Nexus devices. Keep saying what you wish, I'm telling what I heard from the horses mouth. It's very simple, u can go to YouTube and watch the video or better still we'll see when Nexus devices starts getting Android M update.

Get the zero 2..its super fast

People with these phones should help this young man by posting pictures so that he can make a good choice.

Google has announced the release of Marshmallow 6.0 to Nexus devices starting from next week. I hope your Hot 2 gets it next week too since Google is in charge and Android One is like Nexus. Time for proofs.

I have waited so much for this day, particularly cos you said Google will update your Hot 2 the same time as Nexus devices. Months have passed oh since Android M hit Nexus(now they are waiting for 6.0.2) and yet Hot 2 is still there, no show.
