Thank you. But this front flash, I hope it is not the screen flash like iPhone 6.

I came across a70 today with a colleague at work, it doesn't have front flash, what a great turn off. She couldn't ans many of my questions as she did not doesn't really explore the phone. There was also limit to how I could handle with the phone, as we don't really have a strong rapport. But I enjoyed my brief moment with the phone
It's a crime not to explore your phone o....what's the essence of using a smartphone if what you only do is to call, chat and snap pix? It's good you have a feel of it.

Check body to screen ratio. How much screen is available to you compared to the bezels.


Infinix note 3 has giant bezels up and down. It's not like that on The Samsung.

So no be by size. Na by screen real estate.
Hmmmmmnnnnn. Thank you for the enlightenment

Pls ring the bell to our ladies, esp this iPhone users.
Many people underutilize their phones. It's as terrible as some people not being able to open MS-Word docs on their phones

I somewhat have issues with online reviews. They said a20 has a 6.4 inches screen. Yet when I places it screen on screen with my infinix note 3 who is 6.0i
Inches in size, the infinix is still bigger. So what bases was the Samsung measured?
That note 3 has bazels, but the recent phones now have more screen with small size. If you remove the top and bottom bazels then that note 3 qill be very small

I just compared the infinix phone with a Samsung a20, and I fully comprehend you now. The Samsung has bigger screen... Real screen estate. But the infinix note 3 pro has a really really big bezel, hence the big appearance of the phone.
But givin it a second and deep thought, it wil really b dangerous fora phone with nigh real screen estate to drop...... The screen can get damaged easily
My brief experience with Samsung a20 this evening:
It has a great display graphics, about same weight with my infinix note 3, I discovered I can change the "minimize, home button and back button" to another desired style instead of gesture, the batter is quite strong too.
But I discovered a large portion of the ram is consumed on nothing. I assume it was background ap and closed background app, yet barely 800mb was left from the 3gb ram (and not many apps has been installed on it yet) . Also it's a big turn off that it doesnt have front flash (only screen flash). Even, it's sad to say the rear flash is not too bright. I can really on it at night to light a dark path when working. My infinix's own is bright but the light "scatters", to it only lights up many things withing a short distance. When I was using iPhone 6s, it has a focus flash, but it was. It bright even though one can alter the degree of brightness. The cameras are superb, both front ND rear
It was fun using the split screen and I could alter the boundary btwn the split, and it was fun using "cast" to render the display on my infinix.
I don't knw, but something really gives me a conviction that that 32gb rom is a scam, that it's go as get full quickly by app data on the phone, just like using a 16gb rom on OS 6 (one might need a memory card on the long run) ... Could I be right or I am jumping into conclusions?

okikiosibodu, did you try to increase the brightness for torch? I don't know if it's same on A20 but A70 came half bright. You have to get it to level 5 to see its full brightness.

Lol. It's dangerous but pray the landing impact won't be much. grin

What eats up the space is trully background apps, they are called bloatwares, uninstal the ones you wont need and use greenify or its like on playstore to stop background apps from running. This is where Android one phones stand out because it only comes with google apps, you install the rest.

The screen flash worked quite well for me though. As for the rear flash, you can increase the intensify of the back flash light.
The 32gb is not a scam though

In all of these, there's nothing bad in getting an OTG drive to keep your user files and free up space on the device. I have them available in 16, 32 & 64GB (both in type c and MicroB porrts). Holla at me via https:///2349068604921

Please can you direct me on how to alter the degree of brightness? I tried to dig for it, didn't see it.
Also I tried to look for where to display percentage of the battery but I don't know my way around it, I had to search. Pls can you direct me also.

By brightness I assume you are referring to the flashlight. Swipe down the status bar, click on the "torch" text itself and not on the icon. You will be able to adjust the brightness. For the battery percentage, I thought it comes by default

Thank you. Will try it out when next I come in intact with an A20. For the battery percentage, one has to "check" the box for it to display, but the "battery" tab is not readily available as seen in os 6. I had to search for it

Trying to find out how to get to the battery tab without necessarily searching for it. I want to believe there should be a way to navigate there just like lower os versions. If we have to be searching, then I am 100% certain we will never fully utilize the capability of the phone, cos there will be other hidden settings that we won't be able to access cos we didn't knw they existed and also didn't know how to search for them. I hope I am driving my point well and not boring you with details

By navigation buttons, do u mean the "home, minimize and back button? " if yes, then yes! It can be changed. You can change from gestures klike iphone x) to conventional buttons like the regular android. Even, you can laterally invert the position of the minimize and back button form left to right, with the home button remaining at the Centre. I saw the features on the phone yestday. It made me love it more. Tried to search for same on infinix s4 today, didn't see it (I don't knw if it doesn't have or I don't know how to navigate there)
