It's like infinix just wants to keep it's patrons in the stone age... 720x1280pixels, mediocre chipset clocked at a mediocre frequency.. Like seriously?

#TeamXiaomi All day...


Ya 720 x 1280 pixels is not the best but it is not that bad for a 5.2-inch device. It is still a HD display.

The rumoured next phone to be launched by Infinix is suspected to be having a dual front camera. I first heard about it from a tech blogger then I decided to dig deeper to find out more. I stumbled on this picture that shows the heavily guarded phone and it sure has a dual front camera. In the event that the phone is later launched and we don’t see a dual front camera then don’t trust my word again. But that is almost impossible!! Am dead sure about this. So what are your thoughts about the dual front camera feature?

The device is confirmed to be Infinx S2 Pro.

Phones / Infinix Zero 4 Edge A Prank? by Astutechris(m): 5:56pm On Apr 13, 2017
Whether we are going to actually see a phone by the name Infinix Zero 4 Edge remains unknown.

For sometime now the news about an upcoming Infinix phone by the name Infinix Zero 4 Edge has been in circulation.

This was as a result of a post made by Infinix Mobile on their official Infinix Pakistan Facebook page and also the post made by one of their co-founders by name Benjamin Jiang on his personal Facebook page about the device.





Fans reacted positively to this news, but looking closely at those pictures, you would see that both posts where made on April 1st, which raises the question: is this news real or is it an April fool prank?

Out of curiosity, a fan contacted Infinix Mobile via chat to confirm this news, guess what the reply was? Check the screenshot below.



From the screenshot, you will see that Infinix actually confirmed that to a prank.

What a shame!

Infinix is yet to make any public statement about the reality of Infinix Zero 4 Edge, but if this is actually a prank, then in my humble opinion, I think they went too far.

I'm beginning to notice that trend too. And the S2 Pro is more of Hot S. The only real difference is the dual front camera.

I think Infinix is confusing people with the phrase "world's first wefie smartphone". I'm not sure what the mean by that, but Infinix S2 Pro is certainly not the first smartphone to feature dual front camera.

They may not be the first to implement that technology, but Infinix really pushed the boundary with the Infinix S2 Pro.

Phones / Key Features Of The Infinix S2 Pro by Astutechris(m): 1:14pm On Apr 11, 2017
Wondering why or whether you should buy the Infinix S2 Pro?

Here are the key features of the S2 Pro (Infinix X522) that will help you makeup your mind…

From Selfie to Wefie



Infinix introduced 2 front cameras for 135 degree wide-angle shots and an all new selfie experience. The front camera of the device feature 13 MP + 8 MP camera which eliminates the need for a selfie stick while taking selfie.

Compact Design



The S2 Pro is optimized for one hand operation with 5.2-inch display.

The display of the device is not small at all but it is also compact enough for users that use their smartphone mostly with one hand.

The compact design of the device creates a “signature feel” and as Infinix puts it, “once the device is in your hand, you won’t want to let go”.

2.5D Glass

Infinix S2 Pro feature a 2.5D glass which means a wider view angle. This technology makes the 5.2-inch display slightly “bigger”.

Speed and Stability



S2 Pro is powered by a 64-bit MTK Cortex-A53 MT6753W octa-core processor with a processor speed of 1.3 GHz and it is coupled with 3 GB RAM and 32 GB ROM which makes the device deliver a very decent speed and stability when multitasking.

The fingerprint scanner aids the speed of operation with its 0.2 seconds unlock feature.

Fingerprint Scanner

The fingerprint feature of the device helps improve speed and functionality.

With a simple tap, you can unlock the screen, accept calls, or take a photo.

XOS



The Infinix S2 Pro feature the personalized Infinix user interface – XOS.

Three main feature of the XOS are: it is safe, stylish and efficient.

The XOS provides an excellent interactive experience wit innovative features such as custom themes, smart cleanup, and Freezer whic helps you to temporarily disable infrequently used apps to save data.

XOS also feature some personalized apps such as Ultra power, Xmanager, XAccount, User guide, Xclub and Xweather.

Now you that you know the key features of the Infinix S2 Pro, what do you think about the device? Is it a go or a no go?

Phones / What To Expect With The Infinix S2 Pro (features + Exclusive Pics) by Astutechris(m): 9:18am On Apr 10, 2017
Infinix S2 Pro is coming…it is almost here!

Infinix S2 Pro will be the successor of Infinix Hot S – a selfie-focused smartphone. And as you would expect, it successor comes with an even more advanced front camera for wefie this time.

The S2 Pro comes with 13 MP rear (back) camera…nothing special about that, but the special thing about the Infinix S2 Pro is the front camera.

Infinix S2 Pro will come with a dual front camera. 13 MP + 8 MP in the front…that is jaw-dropping!

It is now a battle of front camera.

Why we are still wowed by the 16 MP front camera of the Tecno Camon CX, then comes Infinix S2 Pro…

The front camera of the S2 Pro is built that way to give you the best wefie.

In case you are wondering what the h*ll a wefie is, simply put, a wefie is the plural of selfie. That is, a selfie with 2 or more people. Group selfie if you may.

The combined front camera of the Infinix S2 Pro will give a 135 degree wide angle, which replaces the need for a selfie stick while taking a group selfie (wefie).

Another notable upgrade from the Hot S is the display.

S2 Pro still feature 5.2-inch display with 720 x 1280 resolution, but this time with a 2.5D glass.

2.5D refers to a slight curvature at the edge of the glass display, also known as a contoured edge. This slight curvature in the glass gives a better user experience in touch screen devices.

Infinix S2 Pro will come with Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box, a bit disappointing given that it is coming at a time when most smartphones are getting Nougat upgrade. But we learnt that it is upgradable to Android 7.0 Nougat.

The device will be powered by a 1.3GHz Octa-core Cortex Chipset, coupled with 3 GB RAM and an internal storage of 32 GB, which is expandable to up to 64 GB with the help of an SD card.

The battery capacity is 3000mAh, guessing that will also be a bit of a disappointment for some users.

Infinix S2 Pro Key Specs

5.2inch HD (720p) 2.5D curved Display
3GB RAM
32GB internal storage
1.3GHz Octa-core MT6753 Processor
13MP back camera with Dual LED Flash
13MP + 8MP front cameras with LED Flash
3000mAh Libattery
Dual SIM support
Android 6.0 Marshmallow with XOS Skin
4G LTE Supported

The S2 Pro is expected to retail for about NGN 58,000 (about 152 USD).

Aside from the 16 MP front camera (which I don't know if is really necessary), I don't see any thing special in the Tecno Camon CX.

Hello Astutechris,

Kindly provide us with your registered email address or unit number so we can contact you to explain how we calculate our shipping cost.
We await your response.
However, Kindly note that our shipping cost is determined based on the highest between the actual weight of your package (gross weight) and its dimensional weight (LxWxH/139) which is the weight it will occupy in the cargo it will be conveyed with.

You can follow this link to understand how your shipping cost is calculated as well as charges which can make up your shipping invoice.

http://www.shoptomydoor.com/ShippingCalculation.html

You can also use our get a quote tool to get an estimate on your shipping cost at any point in time.

http://www.shoptomydoor.com/home.php?mode=get_a_quote

However this implies that the value of the items is not a determinant factor in calculating the shipping cost of your items.

The value of the items is only used to calculate the customs duty of your shipment.




Like the answer I got from your customer support team via email, this doesn't address the up to 80% consolidation claim.

Mean while, I placed an order on 27th of January for my items to be shipped via air. This orders was supposed to be shipped on Thursday 2nd of February 2017 according to what was stated on your site and was supposed to get to me at most within 11 business days. Counting from February 2nd, it is now 11 business days and from what I see, this order seems not to have arrived your Lagos warehouse not to talk of getting to me.

The order number for the order in question is 103057.

This is not a fair service considering how much you charge for shipping.

Kindly do whatever you can to make sure my order gets to me as soon as possible. What I intend to do with some of the items in the package are long overdue.

LolZ, I've sites hosted with them anyway but what u expected is it that I should add to the fire you guys are already making here? nice, things are not going well, you expected me to join into ranting against them? no! that won't solve the problem.

That you have sites hosted with domainking doesn't mean you are feeling the pain of most people here. The question is: how important are those sites to you?

I also have a site and domains with domainking but I'm not much bordered because I care less about the site and for the domains, I know what to do with them if the worst should happen. I came to notice this issue because I ordered a new domain registeration with them only to notice after so days that the domain is still available for registration. Seeing the situation on ground I hand to go to another registrar to register the domain. My 4k is still with them but that's not a major concern either.

I know what it was like when one of my sites which was my main source of income was suspended by inmotion hosting because it was receiving excess hack attacks. So don't just say sh*ts here.

If don't know how else to help, you can help by sympathizing with them or by not commenting at all order than criticizing their impatience.

D34lw4p:


That's the exact thing I said in my first post, what they're going through Is so technical and I'm sure their smart teams are working so hard to get every issues fix.

The problems with Nigerians is they hardly become cool at any little misappropriation, Domainking are known to be very responsive to every queries but what should stop them from replying or offering their services the right way would mean that something very unusual is going on!

Look at this man...what is he talking?

People's businesses, reputation, websites, money etc are at stake and the people in charge are not responding and you criticize them and tell them to be cool

I guess it is for you to say because you haven't been there.
