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 and back then I was using the Redmi Note 7 as a basis for judgement. The 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 you).

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 2gb game file.
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.

This is getting lame.

op, I hope you are wearing body armour, the scrap loving crew are coming for you.

TUANKU:
This is getting lame.

Nope, it's becoming intriguing

This is boring now find something else to say

See how you are making a joke of yourself by contradicting your own words.

I viewed your profile, and I found out you created a thread for Xiaomi late last year, and there's more about devices.
So, this whole thing you wrote up here is your cup of tea.

The Hot 8 is a 2gb device hope you know !

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.
