Reviewing The 9th Generation Of Infinix Hot by atheistandproud(m): 9:08am On May 30, 2020 |
Infinix has recently released the 9th generation of their Hot series almost 8 months after the last installment. There are three phones in this generation 1. Infinix Hot 9 Play 2. Infinix Hot 9 3. Infinix Hot 9 Pro It seems that there would not be a lite version for the generation as the Hot 9 Play seems to be the lite variant here. The Hot line has been seen as targeted for young people who have a limited budget so phones in this line are budget phones. Hot 9 Play SoC: Helio A25 (2/32GB) OS: Android 10 (XoS 6.0) Camera: Dual 13+2mp with an 8mp selfie Battery: 6000mAh Display: 6.8" 720p screen Build: Plastic Hot 9 SoC: Helio A25 OS: Android 10 (XoS 6.0) Camera: Quad 13+2+2mp+VGA with an 8mp selfie for the 32GB ROM variants Quad 16+2+2mp+VGA with an 8mp selfie for the 64/128GB variants Battery: 6000mAh Display: 6.6" 720p screen Build: Plastic Hot 9 Pro SoC: Helio P22 (4/64) OS: Android 10 (XoS 6.0) Camera: Quad 48+2+2mp+VGA with an 8mp selfie Battery: 5000mAh Display: 6.6" 720p screen Build: Plastic Both the Hot 9 and Hot 9 Play are entry level devices and one should not expect much from them. The Hot 9 Pro is the budget device here. The Infinix Hot 8 lite had almighty lagging issues. I handled the phone for a few days and my experience was horrible. If the data was switched on and notifications were pouring in, the phone was unusable. It also charged very slowly and tended to become unresponsive after some time. The Hot 8 felt better but it also had slow charging issues as well. With the shift to the new Helio A25, it is expected that the end user's experience should improve but with Mediatek, it's either hit or miss especially at the entry level. I would say that this phone is only good for basic functions (calls, SMS, social media and light games). Do not expect any more from this. The Hot 9 Pro however comes with the old warhorse Helio P22. With the exception of the bigger battery, this is just the Infinix Hot 8 in a new body with an updated Operating system (Android 10). Other phones you may consider at this price point include: Nokia 3.2, Nokia 4.2, Redmi 7a, Redmi 8a, Umidigi Power, Samsung A10, A10S and A20. Is this worth an upgrade? I don't think so. 13 Likes 1 Share

edoairways: From what you wrote here that means i was absolutely correct when I made the statement below See what I've been saying, they have refused to report the processor the Hot 9 is built with. (maybe it's because it is of the "P & A" gang). I rather buy one of those than the "Big battery" Infinix that I will have to wait for more than 8hrs before it gets charged. 4 Likes |

BrickDevo: The budget phone and entry phone class. |
Re: Reviewing The 9th Generation Of Infinix Hot by atheistandproud(m): 7:18pm On May 30, 2020 |
edoairways: For light users, Infinix phones would do really well for battery consumption but would fare poorly for heavy users. This is because the CPU cores that Infinix uses in their favoured Helio A22 and P22s uses ARM cortex 55 CPUs. These are power efficiency cores, not powerful processing or big cores. As a result, Mediatek overclocks them to force them into becoming high performance CPU. The CPU may encounter processing difficulty (bottlenecks) and would then have to consume enormous amounts of power to overcome them. This takes it's toll on the CPU as well causing to become slower especially due to the heating. 5 Likes |
