On black Friday I was kinda let down as I was unable to get a good deal out of the Hot 2 last year. But that weared off when the Tecno L5 was released. I viewed the specs and was wowed by the monstrous battery capacity. I knew this was for me. That aside, after the buzz, I decided to make a quick comparison. Without much ado, here we go...

On performance - The Infinix Hot 2 comes in 2 options : 1GB and 2GB of RAM, whereas the Tecno L5 maintains 1GB of RAM. Infinix really has the edge here, though both phones have a CPU of 4 cores, which even gets better with the 2GB RAM for the Hot 2.

Design wise / hardware - If you've seen the L5, you'll know that it does stand out with its look, rounded corners and the beauty of its edges makes it pleasant to look at. The only let down here is that it feels a bit heavy ; which is quite understood because of the large battery. The Hot 2 is lighter. For those who like a one handed operation. The Tecno L5 will suite you well. It's handy.

To the screen - Though the Hot 2 is 720p, I still prefer the L5's display. It's bright and colorful. Good to look at.

From the Camera perspective - The back and front Cameras of the Hot 2 gets a upper hand as they capture high quality images with ease. This is where Infinix really wins.

On the software side - With Android One in place, along side occasional system and software updates, the Infinix Hot 2 wins on this part, making it flexible.

Battery capacity - The Tecno L5 beats the Hot 2 hands down on the battery side of things with a 5000mAh, leaving the Hot 2 to its 2200mAh capacity.

Verdict : These two phones have different little things which make them unique. To pick one of these up will depend on your needs and what you're willing to sacrifice. This is only a comparison : at the end of the day, there's no clear winner.

The front camera is awful
Switching from data sims and inability to connect to 3g automatically
the touchscreen is all that good( i do cartoons with my phone, so it bothers me)
somtimes when I'm turning it om it shows the tecno glowi logo forever until i ve to force restart it
I've to minimize my playstore when downloading apps or else it will stop at 75%
Then suddenly one day the phone couldnt charge again. Went to slot to repair it with warranty and they said its unrepairable

Then it's just your luck or maybe what you do on it that the phone can't live up to. Mind you - it's an entry level phone. But it's still capable of handling some strenuous tasks.
