Hi guys, seems infinix has unveiled a new device! It is the New Infinix Smart 5 unveiled via her social media page.

bag of shit

nothing beats Samsung and Xiaomi phones

Takes carrying a bag of shit to know one

Explore the Infinix Note 7 quad 48Mp macro camera, the Note 7 camera lets you explore the whole package with a super 48mp quad camera at the rear of the device, the quad camera gives you an assured 48MP ultra-high resolution pictures with at least 40 times the phone screen resolution.

This means you with 6 element lens 1.6 f/1.7 aperture, full-size photos (8000 x 6000) have almost 40 times the resolution of the phone display screen (720 x 1640).

The quad camera capture also lets you own the Night Powered by advanced AI Image Stabilisation, the Night mode also shoots blur-free and focused handheld photos in low-light. Now you can shoot masterpieces that stand out from the crowd 40mm macro lens and record even the most minute of details.

I laugh at some of your naivity.

I noticed that redmni note 8 doesn't support band 28 but infinix note 7. This invariably means that areas where Glo operates on band 28, you might not receive 4g LTE however it supports band 3.

Yeah i noticed that also.

cool

Seaun needs to address the overriding arrogance on nairaland.From politics to every section is the same.

mikeycharles:
So I'm back from my long hiatus but I've been peeking around, so let's get this started.

The first thing I want to note is that Tecno, Infinix and the other one are totally substandard devices that have nothing to offer but total mediocrity. The only reason Nigerians go for them are due to accessibility and it's generally availability cause let's be honest they're not really cheap.

I've handled several of them from the Infinix hot 8 and also the lite version and making this thread based on usage and experience.

Body/feel

I personally handled the Infinix hot 8 for a complete day and I've never experienced such lag in a device [/b]and back then I was using the Redmi Note 7 as a basis for judgement. T[b]he phone (Infinix hot lagged so much and easily heated up despite being new as compared RN7. The screen was also a mess, to be honest the brightness was quite but it was definitely lacking in quality which sounds absurd for a phone that was just newly purchased (not by me mind yo[/b]u). And you used it for a day ehnn

UI

All Tecno and Infinix phone I've handled felt the same, the launcher was a mess and sometimes ads appeared as apps on the app drawer. The user interface can only be described as "punchy and shiny" but lagged and applications took time to load up. The UI wasn't the best out there but it was definitely something so atleast a rating of 3.5/10.

Gaming

This was actually a funny experience but I transferred the Injustice: Gods among us from my Snapdragon device to the Infinix hot 8 per my friend's request which was a mistake since I failed to realize that the GPU was different (adreno Vs Mali) the Infinix used the latter and I had to download the game directly from playstore and I couldn't hold my laughter as the game struggled to load a [b]2gb game file. The Hot 8 is a 2gb device hope you know !
I made some comparisons with subway surf and they managed to run but quite slower as compared to RN7 or the Samsung s8 I wielded at that time.
Rating: 4/10

Calls/speaker
Receiving calls on the Infinix hot 8 and it's lite version was a breeze as expected and the speaker was quite loud for a Chinese device as expected.
Rating 8/10

Camera

I'm not even going to get into that but I'll say this most shots were clearly overexposed but were Instagram worthy while some? Not so much
Rating: 7.5/10

My main issues were the performance as the processor struggled to perform daily simple tasks and the optimization was total rubbish and the UI looked mediocre as compared to recent devices in the same price segment.

Asides the ram optimization, the phones looked cheap and lacked that premium feel and design. I could only describe as cheap plastic but funny enough they aren't cheap.

I hope I've been able to convey my thoughts into words but the bottom line remains that Transission devices lack basic features and if those few features are present, they're advertised as high-end technology (a joke, I know). Their devices are sold at exorbitant prices despite being inferior and substandard in quality and it's a shame most Nigerians don't know what they get their hands into.

You are not telling the trurth for a so called eviewer, who loads a 2gb app on a 2gig RAM device and yet comes to mention RAM optimisation ! Prove us wrong and upload the so called Hot 8 you reviewed details, imei etc


I hope everyone can see the bolded for your cheap lies.

DarkJeddi:
Which Market?

Xiaomi has made a success of every market they have entered and Nigeria is not an exception,people are already buying their products..

Tecno and Infinix have to learn from Xiaomi on how to be successful in their business strategies at the world stage and stop being local champions..

You don't get to be the 4th biggest Smartphone Vendor in the world,without being good at what you do..

I made a mistake quoting you....such a waste of time

DarkJeddi:
Tecno and Infinix should be learning how to market their products from Xiaomi and not the other way around..

Most people who write and praise Xiaomi on Nairaland,have been doing so even before Xiaomi came to Nigeria..

Tecno and Infinix should be learning how to market their products from Xiaomi and not the other way around.. undecided

Visit the markets first ?

Its simple, you like product A buy it, you dont like product B dont buy ................Isnt it funny that people still opt for Infinix and will still buy Infinix S5 Pro despite all the noise here

Xiaomi and co should be learning how to market their devices better without going this name calling route abi kukuma poach the brilliant folks at Infinix
