Infinix Hot Note pro is 4000Mah..claimed infinix...
Before I used infinix, I used a phone of 3450 may... And I mist confess the hot Note pro is not 4000mah...
If I was asked to say the truth it's around 3600-3700... But that lie of infinix is beginning to annoy Me..ever since I used gionee m5 mini of 4000mah...the difference BTW that and my hot note pro was just too clear.

Can infinix pls stop lieing to their consumers

Yeah.. They‘re gonna release it tmao

True that. Just confirmed. It's an okay phone especially for the price. Although, I'm not too psyched about the resolution and chipset. All in all, it's making a whole lot of sense.

from hot 2 to hot 3 is not worth it at all... Just for the bigger screen. And the display would be poor compared that of hot 2 cos they both have the same resolution


it seems you know so much about phones. do u know the price of infinix hot?

If you have INFINIX HOT NOTE PRO(32GB+2GB)
No other Infinix phone is worth changing it for.

Infinix, yesterday the 4th of April, 2016, Launched the infinix Hot 3 x554 android phone to the Nigerian market. The phone which is seen as an upgrade to the first android one smartphone in Africa - infinix hot 2, was launched in Indonesia and Kenya last month.

You may have known of the specs of the phone so i wouldn't want to bore you with that. Instead, i am looking at the price.

The infinix hot 3 was launched with a price tag of N26,500 in Nigeria. While the price tag seem very affordable, something isn't just right. Elly, few days back, gave us a hint via comment stating that the hot 3 has been launched in Kenya with a price tag of $75 (75USD).



I also did some little research and stumbled on a kenya website currently selling the hot 3 x554 smartphone for KSH 7,899. Since i don't know the current exchange rate, i decided to consult Google and Google said Kenyan Shilling 7,899 equals to N15,507.79 in Nigerian Naira.




Okay, i do understand that the exchange rate provided by Google may not be accurate and dollar rate affects the price but then, let's do some very simple mathematics going by what Elly said.

As at yesterday the 4th of April, 2016, i made a purchase online and my bank charged me N305 to a dollar (that rate hasn't changed in weeks if not months now). Some banks in Nigeria charge even less. Now, N305 x 75 = N22,875. If we want to go further by using the black market dollar exchange rate, N320 x 75 = N24,000. The difference may be very little but i don't think it's fair. So my question is, why the difference in price? Are we being cheated?
